Little do they know that the inner-city employment rate is only going to get hit even worse under Obama with his greater regulations and wasteful spending.

You are correct. Not to mention that raising the taxes on the "investor class" will siphon billions of dollars in capital that would otherwise go to create jobs. Well, I guess there is always the "community service" that Obama is promising.....

Any criticism of The One now “is” racism. The charge that racism went away is not being made. And when President Barack Senator Government has a 30% approval rating it’s because “racists don’t want to see him succeed”.

What I say about the concept of “racism” is this. Throughout the 1990s some prominent black figures (columnists and entertainers) insisted that black people could not be “racist” because they did not have the power structure to do anything negative WITH their prejudice.

Hello. They now have appointed someone to the highest office in the land and if that doesn’t smash through the whole power structure to FINALLY open them to the charge of racism in this country, then nothing ever will.

Won’t see that much anymore then.
Wal-Mart employees here say they won’t have to work anymore,
just sit home and wait for Obamamoney.
Remember too- if ‘redistrubition’ bankrupts big rich Walton
family, and Wal-Mart closes, they’ll have nowhere to spend
all that free money.
Guess the anti-rich types haven’t thought what might happen
to retail.

Obama cannot make them all bank Presidents.

Mrs. Obama said that they should shun working at office jobs anyway. They should become community organizers.

By the end of March 2009, each of us will be issued a card giving us the responsibility for the care and feeding of one black person. That will be our penance for the heritage of slavery.

I don’t think Obama trusts blacks, in general. Why? On the basis of who he is friends with.

Yeah, they got high hopes. And no doubt, Obama will turn America into a larger version of places like Detroit, Chicago and Atlanta.

They could disabuse themselves of the idea, but I doubt many spend time vetting candidates. They see a sound byte on TV and that’s it. If asked to define Communism or explain the Constitution, forget it.

He can’t make them bank presidents, but their are lots of openings on Barry’s national security force, and you get to be well- armed.

It’s been a huge reality check the last few days realizing just how racist liberal blacks are.

During Election Night these people were whooping it up, cheering, honking horns, exploding firecrackers. My friend said, “Tomorrow they’re going to wake up & find they’re still black & unemployed.”

I saw these people celebrating in my neighborhood during Election Night — whooping, honking horns, shooting firecrackers.

My friend remarked, “Tomorrow they’re going to wake up & find they’re still black & unemployed.”

I was thinking it seemed like ‘77, too. Have started listening to the music from that era lately and a considering getting my dog an afro.

Didn’t mean to post twice. (System was down, or something.)
