I thought they meant “disappointing black politician” in terms of the failed black Democrat mayors of US cities over the past 50 years. They have taken corruption and malfeasance to unheard of levels and further destroyed our cities.

Melissa Harris-Perry said the president has been hindered by right-wing racism against him.

No matter where you look the blacks play the race card.

To me being a right winger is being a conservative, and anti big government spending.

To the blacks being conservative is now racist.

To Blacks everything is race.

There are some really nice black people around, but given the right circumstances, they all go back to their roots.

I give you General Colon Powell and his vote for Obama, and I stll bet Condoleeza Rice voted for him too.

They daily practice an extreme racism and then claim to be the victims of racism. It is like a rattlesnake claiming to have been bitten by a rabbit.

How about that I agree with something Cornell West has said. Barack Obama indeed has an elitist agenda.

You made a good point about the present POTUS, he is inadequate as are many other “affirmative action” folks.

Millions of college degree’s and unqualified job titles were created to provide positions equal to those who worked to be prepared so non-producers could have “status”.

Hell be damned checks and balances that went away with LBJ.

You must, as I have, at some point in time heard West speak..if you can call unintelligible babble speaking. Every time I hear West spout off on C-Span or elsewhere, I wonder what drugs he’s on.

The simplest explanation is that he is another pseudo intellectual race quota hustler.

There is no substance to him.
