"I consistently believe that when it comes to ... reparations, the most important thing for the U.S. government to do is not just offer words, but offer deeds."
- Barack Obama, August 2008

The coup de grace for any hopes Obama had for a second term.

According to the reparations mindset, therefore, President Obama’s $1.25 billion for 70,000-plus black farmers is hardly even a beginning.

This is going to get real ugly!

Is this for the 40 acres and a mule that some never got as promised?

More like there it went$$: REPARATIONS.

I’m so glad we’re a post-racial society.

What I don’t understand is that in the 90’s it was settled for 2.2 billion, Obama adds 1.2 billion for those that missed the dead line.

It was settled as a class action sort of deal, is what I’m understanding.

Why can’t the Hispanics get the same treatment? They’re told they must file as individuals.

Then, I wonder how will we ever afford this if we are fair, since the blacks got their reparations?

Will it ever end?

With inflation on the way, could be handy when gas prices hit $9 a gallon.

I guess it really is true that blacks can’t make it without handouts. It took a while, but now I’m convinced.

Congress, as well as a federal judge, will have to approve the deal.

Obama is going for everything!

Outrageous overreach! Just the start of reparations.
