"We're supportive of the president, but we're getting tired. We're getting tired. So, what we want to do is, we want to give the president every opportunity to show -- to show what he can do and what he's prepared to lead on," Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) told a Congressional Black Caucus-sponsored gathering yesterday in Detroit.
"Our people are hurting," Waters added.

Sorry to say and flame away if you want but even in the best of economic times black unemployment remains high. In fact, it’s really absurd to even use the term’’ black unemployment’’ because, simply put, HOMEY DOESN”T WANT TO WORK! For over forty years he hasn’t had to. The Dems and the welfare state have made sure that anything resembling a work ethic had been stamped out of black America and a dependence on the state as the ‘’employer’’ inculcated in it.
“I would savor Obama getting his butt handed to him in a primary. I hope he gets challenged from within.”
No way will he be challenged.
“Why Obama wont face a primary challenge”
“President Obama is faring poorly these days, but he can console himself with the fact that hell probably be spared the fate of previous presidents who fell on hard times: a primary challenge. Those groups within the Democratic Party that might otherwise be shopping around for a more forthrightly progressive alternative are deterred by two factors: the likelihood that any challenge will end up helping a radicalized Republican Party and the fact that Obama IS BLACK.”

He is protected from challengers by his skin of color.
Waters says Obama’s a flop, and the media agrees with her. We say Obama’s a flop, and we’re called racists. In any case, Obama’s a flop.
The problem with Water’s pronouncement is that she wants Obama to deliver more of the same. More stimulus, more federal money paid by the taxpayer.
“”Our people are hurting,” Waters added.”
So are white people, lady!
Lucky you.
Why should Barry waste his time in the “black” community? The ‘RATS know they have the “black” folks in the bag. He needs to get out there and convince whitey and brownie to vote for him.
Toast.
Would be funny if someone like Romney changed parties and challenged him in the primary.
Since them MSM loves him so much.
Obama ain’t black enough! lol
What a joke.
He probably knows less about cows than he does about running a country.
whatever. just sayin.
stay well.
He doesn't need it, he wants it. Important difference. Ask yourself what happens to all the loot that isn't spent on the campaign. Ask yourself how so many politicians go into elective office from the middle to upper middle class, and leave very, very wealthy. Just sayin...
Exactly.
I read your comment, and I am convinced you and I view that period similarly. From how you started out, and some of the next comments, it seemed a bit confusing to me.
Parts of that I totally agree with as written, and if you reworked the other part, I’m convinced I would that too.
I thought it best not to respond, but I think I know what you meant, and we’re on the same page. No problem.
I did not mean to offend you by not responding, and I don’t mean to now. I hope you’ll take it that way.
TEXAS.
She knows what Obama’s strategy is. It’s her strategy too. She’s just pretending that she’s one of the little people.
