The Obama administration is close to creating an office of urban policy to allocate funds to urban areas for a range of initiatives, including job training and the creation of new jobs, BlackAmericaWeb.com has learned.

Why Pay ACORN subcontract when you can just give them an office in the West Wing?

Sorry my exerpt was too short:

According to a political insider, the president's urban renewal plan - from neighborhoods to downtown corridors - calls for creating more opportunities for minority businesses, establishing more affordable public transportation, raising the minimum wage, ending tax breaks for businesses that send jobs overseas, providing additional funding for community policing and ending racial profiling.

With every act of this clown I sink further into depression....it’s like being in a prison.

I'm guessing that this new bureaucracy will not be charged with the much needed task of bringing civilization back to our cities.

Obama Youth recruitment offices.

Political/re-election strategy to overwhelm the red portions of the country.

Shouldn’t that be “ Mr. Booth ?”

[libh8er]

What can I say but elections have consequences. Knowingly or unknowingly America voted for big govt.

" providing additional funding for community policing and ending racial profiling. ">/i>

So, ACORN is going to be recruiting and training Obama's national police force, I guess that's why they needed 100 billion $$. All Left, All black; No racial profiling huh?

Just look back at his community organizing in Chicago, it did a world of good and many of his friends including himself became rich from it.

[peeps36]

I feel the same way but it makes me feel better when I decide not to pay for any of it. I hope every American decides not to give him their money.

Get yer ACORN machetes! Get yer ACORN machetes ri-cheer!

.it’s like being in a prison.

That's the same way the Czechs and the East Germans felt...

[ElayneJ]

Yes. I’m guessing this will extend to the suburbs and will involve the “equitable housing” that appeared on the obama campaign site. With a slow housing market, this is an opportunity to move blue voters into red neighborhoods.
This is very well orchestrated. I think it’s been a long time coming.

[keepitreal]

Of course. This isn’t for the little people. This is to make his friends rich (and to have an established political machine at the ready).
