And don’t worry the check is in the mail.
Good idea. Vote democratic — the party that makes things very, very much worse for blacks.
Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., once said: “George (W.) Bush is our ‘Bull’ Connor
Perhaps Rangel might want to check do a bit of research before using Bull Connors as an example of why blacks should vote democrat. He’ll find that that Bull Connors was a democrat. lol
Obama has got the racist black block vote in his pocket regardless. Whether they go 98 percent or 95 percent for him is largely irrelevant. The key to the election is the white vote.
Maybe the railroading of Zimmerman will be a tipping point for white awareness on how they are being shafted. Hopefully the trial will happen before November.
But then, Romney is Obama light, based on his stand on the issues.
That being said, it would be wonderful to see Obama lose just to see the hysterics and hand wringing anguish among the guilt tripping white “liberals”
Obama&Co will pimp anger and paranoia till the end.The dems only have the race card and free rides to offer,the lazy slackers live for free things that the working class have to pay for.
Tax spend and repeat for the last sixty years.
Yeah, stay angry..stay unemployed...vote dim.
Why, in Heaven’s name, does no Republocrat point out that Bull Connor and th rest of his king - including Al Gore’s daddy - were all Democrats.
Tell the story of RATs who overthrew the city government of Wilmington, NC and ran all the PUBs and blacks out of town.
Put THEM on the defensive. But that require intestinal fortitude, something completely foreign to the PUBs.
Blacks have nothing to be angry about ... the ones I see on TV think Obama is doing a great job with the economy, Obamacare won in the Supreme Court .... yes he could do more, but they have ‘won’ with The Won.
There are some blacks disenchanted with Obama for not doing more .... if disenchanted enough, they’ll stay home and not vote (seeing more of this).
The true, white-hot, motivating anger is on the ‘Right’ this election, not with the Dems.
Conservatives and blacks have something common. Both groups are disenfranchised slaves on their political plantations, Left and Right.
As if they needed to be reminded. That's like telling a dog to stay furry and eat table scraps.
This truly is astonishing. Black folk have been voting for Democrats for more than 50 years - and they are still poor.
That’s a pity.
They can do better.
Should read; ‘Democrats to FREE-SH*T slaves’....
Here is ammo to use against libs when they claim that the GOP has a history of racism.

That's a great insight. I feel the same way about people who are upset about this or despairing about that or infuriated over other thing ... and looking for someone to blame. Isn't it just too exhausting, when you could spend the same days and weeks and years being happy?
Do it for Treyvon! And remember to eat your Skittles!
Larry Elder, the brilliant writer of the posted article, once wrote a book titled "Stupid Black Men." I don't know offhand if Rangel is mentioned in the book, but he certainly should be. And. BTW, Charlie, "Bull" Connor was a Democrat!
Another infamous bit of absurdity from Rangel occurred as he received news of the start of the Persian Gulf war in 1991. Rangel declared that he opposed the war on the ground that there was a disproportionate percentage of blacks and Hispanics in the US military!
