The Obama Recession: Blacks Hardest Hit
Patriot Room ^ | 7-13-09 | Scott Martin

In the aftermath of most American disasters, either man-made or natural, minorities tend to be hit hardest by the effects. The same is true of the Obama presidency, and the effects are being seen already. The policies of the first Black (not to mention socialist) President are impacting Blacks most adversely, both in New York City and nationally. It only seems fair that the demographic that most overwhelmingly supported President Obama in his election bid should pay the biggest price for what they foisted upon our country. Still, isn't it ironic, dontcha' think?

Take NYC:

"While unemployment rose steadily for white New Yorkers from the first quarter of 2008 through the first three months of this year, the number of unemployed blacks in the city rose four times as fast..."

Leftists love this, because enough black voters, as well as enough minority voters in general, keep leftists in power. The majority of black voters just don’t vote Republican, no matter what, and this voting pattern goes back several decades. If conservatives really succeeded in eventually breaking this ongoing trend, then it really would “make a serious political dent” in “everything leftist”!

I can't see my monitor, as the tears are just pouring from my eyes right now. This is such sad, sad news.

I am beginning to think that there are masses of folks in this world who actually WANT to be victims. It fulfills them.

Hey, everyone needs a hobby; I would have steered them towards model rocketry or mountain biking, but perpetual victimhood works also, I guess.

This is a repeat of a previous post; however, I can't help but smile when I read this. You have to wonder about a block of voters that keep electing the same group of people that screw them over and over again. Maybe there is some truth to the stereotypical views of Blacks.

This same group of racists voters (voting for someone based upon color, also goes by the euphemism “identity politics”), will vote for Obama in the next election. Somehow they believe that Obama is going to save them, but he is just another false Black Messiah.

Obama favors illegal aliens over Americans and it just so happens that illegal aliens are taking over many of the positions that blacks used to take.

Look for “racial profiling layoffs” encouraged by the obama administration to “fix” this problem.

Well, those that helped fill this bowl of septage, they can eat it until it’s coming out of their ears for all I care.

Riddle me this:

A young Vietnamese gal comes to America.

She is poor, comes without an education and with limited skills. She finds work cleaning motel rooms in the morning and washing dishes in a restaurant at night. She spends only enough money to survive and saves the rest.

Eventually she buys what she needs for a small house cleaning service and hires one person to help her, but she continues with her other two jobs.

She lives like this for 6 long years, when she then finds a small 20 room “mom and pop” motel she uses most of her savings to buy it.

Five years later she has remodeled her motel, sold it a good profit and bought a much larger one that she now has managed for her. She sold her house cleaning business at a good profit.

She is well off, no longer works her nails to the bone, has fun traveling and living the good life. She is now happily married to a good friend of mine.

She knows racism just as well as the blacks say they do.

She was disadvantaged and never asked for so much as a dime of public funds. She was never a gang member, or spent a moment in jail, or sold drugs, or sold her body or committed any crimes.

She didn’t complain, she worked and found more work. She get goals and worked for them. She invested in herself.

She is now a citizen and she is EXTREMELY conservative. She also makes a stuffed squid to die for. I have asked her to never tell me what’s in it.

I should have mentioned. She was a baby that a GI had to leave behind. And her parents were murdered with the millions of Vietnamese that the media , hippies and our POS government condemned to death, thanks to the likes of traitor Kerry.

I guess some folks think they have it harder than others. Often it is those that seem to believe that only THEY..... have a compelling life story, right?
