Reporting from Washington A Republican majority in Congress would mean "hand-to-hand combat" on Capitol Hill for the next two years, threatening policies Democrats have enacted to stabilize the economy, President Obama warned Thursday.
Speaking on Michael Baisden's syndicated radio show, Obama also made a direct appeal to African Americans about the importance of the November vote, even though he's not on the ballot himself.
"The reason we won [in 2008] is because young people, African Americans, Latinos -- people who traditionally don't vote in high numbers -- voted in record numbers. We've got to have that same kind of turnout in this election," he said. "If we think that we can just vote one time, then we have a nice party at Obama's inauguration, and then we can kind of sit back and suddenly everything's going to change that's just not how it works."

“The reason we won [in 2008] is because young people, African Americans, Latinos — people who traditionally don’t vote in high numbers — voted in record numbers.”
Exactly what is he stating...that the only reason he won is because more ‘other than whites’ got out and voted for the black man? Everything is about ‘race’ for this guy, everything. If he wins, it’s all about skin color. If he’s criticized, it’s all about skin color. Too many years of Black liberation theology. I wonder if he hated his own mother?

I'm just repeating what Reverend James Manning's Momma and Granny told him about her. She was a wh0re on many levels and with many men. Frank Marshall Davis and his wife had a 3 way with her. There is a grainy video (on the net somewhere) of her having a 3 way with them and that was obama's mentor. I think Davis may be his Daddy. obama's Grandfather had contacts with Davis before obama was born. He was a commie... FBI file now destroyed... how convenient. I have not seen the video... Manning says that he has... I report... you decide. :-)

say such things on a public forum, and even
in private where Hubby's ears would burn
off if he heard them]
