Unhappy members of the Congressional Black Caucus probably would be marching on the White House if Obama were not president, according to CBC Chairman Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.).
"If [former President] Bill Clinton had been in the White House and had failed to address this problem, we probably would be marching on the White House," Cleaver told The Miami Herald in comments published Sunday. "There is a less-volatile reaction in the CBC because nobody wants to do anything that would empower the people who hate the president."
CBC members have expressed concern in recent months as the unemployment rate has continued to rise amongst African-Americans, pushing for Obama to do more to address the needs of vulnerable communities.
"Were supportive of the president, but we getting tired, yall, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) said in August. We want to give [Obama] every opportunity, but our people are hurting. The unemployment is unconscionable. We dont know what the strategy is."
Rather than targeting Obamas leadership, many CBC members aimed their fire at the Tea Party movement over the summers congressional recess. Waters said in a public meeting in her district that the Tea Party "can go straight to hell." Another member, Rep. Frederica Wilson (D-Fla.), called the Tea Party the real enemy seeking to hold Congress hostage.

Gosh these people must be full of self loathing. To submit to the political whims of a chicago thug because of the color of his skin. That’s really pathetic. Do they really think that Moochelle and Obama ever “feel their pain”? Do they have any idea how ridiculous they continue to look to the rest of the world?
Barry is out Golfing while more than 20% of blacks are having to beg for money.
To be committed to supporting a man because he shares some similar skin pigment, yet he is a worthless hack, it pathetic. A a miserable dilemma.
Any intelligent person would just say, “fine, we got our first black president, now that that is done, lets get rid of him and find someone who can get the economy going. Enough with the lazy SOB who is making us ALL look bad while making our lives miserable.”
I mean, why are they still upset?
Don’t worry. The Magic Negro has lost his “magic”. Class warfare and “your a damn racist” is not a job creator. It takes idiots a few years to figure this out.
“Do they have any idea how ridiculous they continue to look to the rest of the world?”
The rest of the normal world views them as the racists they are. Full of fear that their black voting contingent just might awaken to the way they have been scammed by these black “politicians” whose only intent is to keep the the rest of the slaves on the plantation while they rack up a personal fortune by promoting conditions that will keep them enslaved.

It will probably never dawn on these racists that we don't like Obama because of his policies and positions just like THEY don't much like him now either.
Just like Mugabwe of Zimbabwe gets to remain in power even though he is wrecking the nation. So be it with the black brethren of Obama giving him a pass because he’s a so-called ‘brotha’. Shallow blind allegience.!
So Cleaver has basically admitted the reason they’re not marching is because of Hussein’s RACE. Cleaver ought to follow this up with an apology to Dubya.

I have interacted with a lot of these folks for work. Whether you believe it or not doesn’t matter to me, but the fact is, these folks would MUCH rather work than have handouts.
So what the administration needs to do is create a business friendly environment and let business do their thing. This property redistribution by taxation is not going to work.
What administration are you talking about? Certainly not the Baraqqi Regime. Their goal is to make more people dependent on government and buy their votes with my tax money.
I agree that is what the current administration is up to.
I wonder if the Black Caucus members would say the same thing if we have a black Republican president.
Hypocrites and rascist pigs.
