Obama is giving the GOP a golden opportunity with this 80/20 issue yet except for some bloggers the GOP political class has been silent. This issue is a winner for the GOP including in the deepest blue areas like suburban NYC metro to Beverly Hills. This is a fundamental issue people care about. If they cannot take advantage of this then we should just literally create the Uniparty.

Shockingly, Americans not big on government enforced neighborhood diversity

Imagine that?

I will go along with this as long as the residents of Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and West Los Angeles California get their beloved minorities living right in their midst.

They tried that decades ago. People moved out and created suburbs.

Every time they try something like this, more private gated communities spring up.

But they never learn. No matter how big a failure, they come back and try again a few decades later.

Maybe we could see where SCOTUS stands on this?

We’re not big on Sodomite Marriage either, but who’s going to stop either?

The less publicized Supreme Court Ruling:

Supreme Court vs. Neighborhood Segregation

In a surprising move on Thursday, the United States’ highest court ruled that policies even inadvertently relegating minorities to poor areas violate the Fair Housing Act.

In writing the majority opinion, Justice Kennedy acknowledged that the disparate-impact standard has worked to combat systemic discrimination. “Much progress remains to be made in our Nation’s continuing struggle against racial isolation,” Kennedy wrote. “In striving to achieve our ‘historic commitment to creating an integrated society,’ we must remain wary of policies that reduce homeowners to nothing more than their race. But since the passage of the Fair Housing Act in 1968 and against the backdrop of disparate-impact liability in nearly every jurisdiction, many cities have become more diverse. The FHA must play an important part in avoiding the Kerner Commission’s grim prophecy that ‘our Nation is moving toward two societies, one black, one white—separate but equal.’”

Diversity is another word for slavery.

One is not free if one has to be ‘diverse’

Several years ago, Chicago closed their crime ridden housing projects and moved the residents to a number of small towns downstate. A town that I once lived in was the recipient of many of these residents. The crime rate has skyrocketed. I noticed that our former house was up for sale, with the stipulation that only a live in owner would be considered. I asked a friend, still living there, why they would say that. She told me that people were buying houses in the areas that were still pretty nice and then renting them out to Section 8 ‘residents’. The Left pushes and pushes and pushes. Why aren't they called out for the BULLIES that they are?? Probably because they have so many Leftist judges that back up the bullying, I guess. Reid did a huge favor for the Leftists, much to the detriment of our country, when he rammed through the nuclear option. And nary a complaint from their sycophants in Big Media. Now loads of judicial activists to implement the Leftist agenda.

The democrats have become hard left socialists. They keep pushing their agenda on others. It’s never enough. Each little victory of theirs is followed by greater and more outrageous demands. Keep pushing Lefties, you just might get what you want - a revolution. Except it won’t be the one the Left is dreaming of. It’ll be a tremendous blow-back that will eviscerate the ferderal government’s power.

This is a “fundamental issue” people don’t give a damn about.

Choose freely, to live where you want to live. It is important to those who work for a living.

If I recall correctly, a majority of Americans weren’t big on the gay marriage thing either. But that got shoved down their throats anyway. So let’s celebrate our new poor gay neighbors!

Another case of bitter clingers clinging to their nice suburban neighborhoods ill-gotten through white privilege and winning life’s lottery. All democrats should warmly embrace their new Section 8 neighbors with Welcome Wagon baskets.

A majority of the very wealthy zip codes in the country are liberal elite.

By all means, tear down the mansion on either side of Michael Moore, the Clintons, and Barbra Streisand to make way for 4 story low risers - places than can house a few hundred black gang bangers and illegals. Rather than ‘white’ rubbing off - ‘liberal elite white’ will rub off and all our problems will be solved.

We need to get behind this one...
