Posted on 09/02/2005 7:45:53 AM PDT by GoBucks2002

The Congressional Black Caucus press conference is exploding in indignation at the President's lack of response. First, Elijiah Cummings blasted him. Now it is Jesse Jackson Jr's turn.

As a proud African American male from a prominent Democratic family, I'm so glad I left America the beautiful. I long for the moment "they" leave so I can go back.

Whoa! While you're in the ring, you better get that left glove back near your face. You're wide open.

Weren't some of the race baiters complaining a few years ago that hurricanes were never given names that "sounded black?"

This politcal BS needs to end. Now is the time to help the needy and not exploit the situation for their own political agenda. This is gonna lash back big time on the libs

No Republican or conservative will go on TV, which, sorry to say attracts far more Americans than this website ever could handle, and expose the Dims for what they are.

These people are such maggots. All they do is play the victim.
------
They are such a HUGE detractor from black Americans. Always causing trouble, ALWAYS THE PROBLEM and NEVER part of the solution. TYPICAL LIBERAL DEMOCRAPS.

Just like Rush predicted. When it comes to disasters, the Left is like flies drawn to a rotting carcass. They create an unpleasant scene but you never see them exalt the greatness of America!

I only have one, but it isn't high definition, so I'm destitute.

We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior and secure the blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our great great-great grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional, and other liberal bedwetters.
We hold these truths to be self-evident: That a whole lot of people were confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of Non Rights.


ARTICLE I -- You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any form of wealth.

More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.

ARTICLE II -- You do not have the right to never be offended.

This country is based on freedom, and that means the freedom for everyone, not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc., but the world is full of idiots and probably always will be.

ARTICLE III -- You do not have the right to be free from harm.

If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful. Do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.

ARTICLE IV -- You do not have the right to free food and housing.

Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generations of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes.

ARTICLE V -- You do not have the right to free health care.

That would be nice but, from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in government run health care.

ARTICLE VI -- You do not have the right to physically harm other people.

If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

ARTICLE VII -- You do not have the right to the possessions of others.

If you rob, cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen TV or a life of leisure.

ARTICLE VIII -- You don't have the right to demand that our children risk their lives in foreign wars to soothe your aching conscience.

We hate oppressive governments and won't lift a finger to stop you from going to fight, if you'd like. However, we do not enjoy parenting the entire world and do not want to spend so much of our time battling each and every little tyrant with a military uniform and a funny hat.

ARTICLE IX -- You don't have the right to a job.

All of us sure want all of you to have one, and will gladly help you in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.

ARTICLE X -- You do not have the right to happiness.

Being an American means that you have the right to pursue happiness -- which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.

I refuse to watch this bullsh*t and con artist, they never offer up one damn solution to anything and are a major embrassment to Black Americans.

Black leaders egging this on could cause urban unrest elsewhere.

It's still hot.

If this is the thanx we get for sending 10B then I say SCREW THEM and cut it in half!! The refugees that were bussed to Houston are COMPLAINING AGAIN!!

These people shame the black race.

So many refugees here in MO that are trying to put clothes on and go back to school, find work, etc. My money is staying LOCALLY and get these people that God gave feet a hand up!!!

I suggest others seek out refugees that got out Saturday or Sunday and help them out personally with stuff. These are the real citizens!!!! Parents of displaced hospitalized infants will need board and start-up as well.

"Who's this dingbat going on about "cruise ships?" She sounds retarded."

I dunno, but each speaker is worse then the one before...
Noted that she needs those cruise ships with the nice restaurants, playgrounds, and SWIMMING POOLS..
Just float that boat into the middle of town and load the bros on board, then sail into the sunset.

I'll be he's right....right now, an un-armed white man in the middle of NO doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of running the gauntlet of looters (heretofore whose color identification has been ignore, unspoken, and played-down).

Here in CA they just replayed an interview by the mayour on the radio and he seems clueless.

Says the years of drugs being allowed to flow through the city has created this entire class of addicts that can no longer get a fix and now they have guns and are going after hospitals, etc to get a fix.

Maybe he should have spent the years getting rid of the drugs he knew where there.

Hi...I live in central Louisiana...which is housing thousands of evacuees...let me tell what is being done...school in 5 parishes are closed today and more than likely will be closed tuesday....we are sending school buses down to help get out the people. This will go on ...bus after bus until it is done....not to mention the people I know who are taking boats down there and joining in the searches...It hurts when the black caucus make it out to be a race thing....the thousands of people that have come out have been taken out with out regard to race. The thousands taken into shelters...have been without regard to race....Stop playing the race card...you are inciting and this is wrong. Shut up your mouths and get off your asses ...get off the tv and get down there with the police, the national guard, the school buses and their drivers....this is how you can help.

"They"

A twist on Belafonte's statement, "the black people who are happy to be in the big house--indifferent to the suffering of the masses".

You are right- the Black Caucus appears only when race is involved. They were not visible or helpful during last year's Florida hurricanes. Interesting too that Florida didn't have the lawlessness we have in the Democrat controlled areas....I think that many people are having their eyes opened to what the welfare mentality has created.
