black people are better off kept ignorant and poor.
1. WHy does the left want to keep school vouchers away from the black community?
2. WHy does the Left only use its buses to ship poor blacks to the polls but not out of a cat 5 hurricane.
3. Why do the left picture black people as helpless and morally des ute that they tell them in every election to discard their worries, the Democrat party will take care of you.
4. WHy do the left only encourage black leaders who picture a negative future for blacks and not one who is positive and stresses the strenght of the individual black soul and not of the weakness of a downtrodden group or body.
5. WHy do the left try to incite hate in the black physce towards whites as to further alienate such from true color blind integration.
6. Why is it when the president offered to build a better NO's for its black residence, did the left throw a hissy fit because the president didnt want to ressurect the 9th ward. Why ressurect an ethnic slum when you can give blacks better. Maybe the left doesnt think much about them.
Blacks, the left has taken your 90 percent vote in every election and all you can thank them for is abortion on demand, and lowering standards for you against everybody to make you feel sub specieal, disintegration of the family unit and utter despair.
That's just classy gtown. Better public school is my preference, but I guess conservatives love to privatize everything. Being against vouchers is against educating black people, give me a break. Poor black people(and white people) are being on by both sides, or else public education would be more equal by now.
LOL
gtown
weak
attn all black folk
BECOME A REPUBLICAN
NOW
for your own good!
trust us.
Yea, that's the answer, blacks become republicans. Why didn't we ever think of that. Maybe there is light.
This is the biggest load of bull ever. You're losing it, gtownspur.
Yea, why can't black people see that Bush is the answer? Besides, Barbara Bush loves black ppl.
I'd still like someone who is considered to be "educated" in politics to start a thread with a list of things both the Democrats and Republicans have done (using their respective idealogical methods) to better the american people.
Not businesses, ins utues, but the ing people.
Show me a list.
That is ridiculous.
liberal democrats love poor people, they need them to exist, or else, they're out of business!
if by poor you mean everyones who is not really rich
Well if you don't want to listen to gtownspur maybe you'll listen to Al Sharpton echo the same;
Sharpton Slams Blacks for Blindly Supporting Clinton, Democrats
By Marc Morano

Washington (CNSNews.com) - Former Democratic presidential candidate Al Sharpton blasted blacks Thursday for what he described as their blind support of the Democratic Party without demanding anything in return.
Sharpton, during his remarks at the National Urban League's annual conference in Washington, noted that his fellow Democrats, including former President Bill Clinton, have taken African-American voters for granted and failed to act in the best interests of the black community.
"The whole network of incarceration (of African-American men) happened under this president and the last president. So it wasn't just George Bush. Bill Clinton -- I wish Hillary had hung around -- Bill Clinton built a lot of jails and passed the omnibus crime bill," Sharpton said shortly after Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) had addressed the same panel discussion, en led "The Black Male: Endangered Species or Hope for the Future?"
Sharpton noted that African-American men make up 6 percent of the U.S. population but 44 percent of the nation's prison population.
"And just because Bill can sing "Amazing Grace" welldoesn't mean the omnibus crime bill was not a bill that hurt our people," Sharpton told the several hundred people gathered at the Washington Convention Center.
Clinton enjoyed significant African-American support and was affectionately referred to by many in the black community as America's "first black president."
"We must stop allowing people to gain politically from us if they're not reciprocating when dealing and being held accountable," said Sharpton, referring to the allegiance that African-American voters maintain to the Democratic Party.
Sharpton said many politicians who court the black vote "come by and get our votes 'cause they wave at us on Sunday morning while the choir's singing. And we act like that is reaching out."
The problem is these same politicians "never addressed why they sit here in Washington with an epidemic proportion of HIV AIDS in our (black) community, unemployment in our community and they do nothing to deal with eliminating those problems," Sharpton explained.
"Imagine me going to a convention of whites who half of them were unemployed and I smiled, waved, sing a hymn and leave. They would whip me in the parking lot before [I left]," he said to laughter and applause.
"As long as we allow people to get elected off of us and deliver nothing to us, then part of our problem is that we have such low political self esteem," he said. "Every time we give them support for no support, we add to the marginalization of black men."
Sharpton said the situation has "gotten so bad that we hold black leaders accountable and give white leaders a pass."
'People emulate what they see'
Sharpton also took aim at black popular culture. Noting that in some U.S. cities, black male unemployment exceeds 50 percent, Sharpton said black music and movies only aggravate the situation.
"We come out in response to that with movies like (the 2005) "Hustle and Flow" and tell our kids that the personification of black men is a black pimp of a white pros ute that wants to be a rapper who shoots the rapper and at the end of the movie, [a] black woman he had as his pros ute has his baby and the white pros ute becomes the head of the record company and makes the money while he's in jail. That don't make sense," Sharpton said to applause.
"People emulate what they see ...We cannot suc b to a generation that acts like it's all right to celebrate being down. It's one thing to be down, it's another thing to celebrate being down," he explained.
Referring to gangster rappers, Sharpton said, "We've gone from 'black and proud' to groups now calling themselves "######s with an at ude."
Sharpton told the panel discussion of how he has confronted rappers about their lyrics only to be told that the rappers simply "reflect the times." Sharpton said black art and culture used to project its "hopes for the future."
"In slavery we wasn't singing, 'you a low down cotton pickin ho.' That would've reflected the times," he said to more laughter and applause.
"In the civil rights era, we sang "We shall overcome" we didn't sing 'You in the back of the bus, got gum on your show, no good MF.' I mean we've been down before. We never romanticized it and put melody to it and acted like it was all right," he added.
Sharpton concluded his discussion with a call for the black community to help itself and return churches to "the center of our community."
"Even if we [are] not responsible for being down, we [are] responsible for getting up," he said. "And if we wait on those who knocked us down to lift us up we'll never get up 'cause if they wanted us up we would have never been down," he said.

So Sharpton is a Republican?
tight Republicans love the rich big business corporate dollar, they need them to exist, or else, they're out of business.
Sharpton does not speak for all blacks or democrats.
o Joe. That's right, no one speaks for everyone, are there parts of Al's speech that you disagree with?
Shoot-from-the-hip truth and Al Sharpton do make strange bedfellows, I was surprised that he gave a speech like that. Maybe he's been hanging out with Cosby.
Al Sharpton is an idiot...unless he takes some shots at Demos[/The Right]
In a non-election year it makes perfect sense for a primary agenda.I was surprised that he gave a speech like that.
That's so true, it's not like Al Sharpton has much to lose by making this speech now. When money time comes, he'll be right back in the Democratic fold. Where else is he gonna go without his base?
WHy does the left want to keep school vouchers away from the black community?
When did the School voucher issue become a racial issue? Last I remember, there were millions of caucations and 'others' who weren't getting voucher money either, but I guess they don't count?
There are many who have blind allegiance to the republican party as well.
School vouchers have been issued under the guise of "Charter Schools" which are a good alternative to the absolutely disgraceful education children are receiving in Public Schools.
When did the School voucher issue become a racial issue? Last I remember, there were millions of caucations and 'others' who weren't getting voucher money either, but I guess they don't count?
It's still a tough road to hoe for the Charter's especially with the fledgling Schools having uneducated inner city schools being enrolled after having spent several years in the Public Schools, they start off way behind.
We'll see improvement as those that have started off in the early grades, K-2nd, start to work their way up in the Charters.
One thing that helps is that the parents that make the effort to move their kids into Charter Schools obviously care about them getting an education and caring about education is a big problem in the inner city Public Schools.
It just so happens, CFB, that I have the list!!!
Here it is:
Here is the list
the Patriot Act
the War in Iraq
