Obama was using Jones to provide us with another "teachable moment" in the continuing education and enlightenment of the American people in the "Obama way."

When is everyone going to finally admit that if your black and have made racist, stupid or ignorant comments about another group then its "ok" and if anyone goes after you, they have just gotta be a closet racist!

Whites are finally getting what they deserve and we are only 8 months into this Administration. This guy is just getting warmed up.

Give him another 2 years and your going to hear people compare the Summer of 2011 to 1968.

So...the congressman from SC calls Mr. O a liar and then apologizes. Then the media reports that the current bill actually did NOT include a provision to exclude coverage for illegals.

So which the hell is it??

If the bill did not exclude illegals and Mr. O said they would not be covered, then he IS a liar.

The entire Republican political class should either take a stand and show the American people that this pathetic excuse for a President is a liar and publish/advertise/hold a 24 hour newscast and anything else to make their point. Otherwise, they should pack up their bags and go home.

Now I know why the Republicans are such losers and why we have this idiot living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue for the...

Why are Asians so much further ahead of Blacks in this country with no preferential treatment? Do we have Asian American month? Do we have Asian Entertainment TV? Looking for a way to differentiate yourself when you are whining that you aren't treated the same as everyone else is schizophrenic at best.

When are blacks as a group (they love being grouped it appears) going to realize that their entire culture and way of live for many in the inner city and elsewhere is a disaster. Murder rates, prison rates, poor health rates, etc. are eroding the black American group everyday. Within 50 years, Blacks will be half the % of the total population they are today. Simple demographic trends can't be denied.

Stand up and...

Thanks for the feedback.

Sometimes I feel like there is such a double standard and at what point do you just give up.

Black leaders need to tell the black community that blaming whites only perpetuates the problems and actually provides ammunition to the true white supremacists that use that hate to justify their own hate. What a vicious cycle.

The Golden rule is so simple yet so hard for us to live by it seems.

We are broke and only the Chinese have figured it out. They just have to figure out a way to unload their $800B in t-bills without tanking the system.

There will be no return to Dow 10K and peoples 401K's will stay reduced by 40%. The stock market has produced a negative -3% return for the last 10 years people. Can't you read stock charts?

People talk about Japan's lost decade. Where the hell to they think the American stock market has been the last ten years? It ain't Shanghai folks!

Teach your kids Mandarin and dye your hair black and maybe you can blend in enough to not annoy the new owners of America. Our political class has bankrupted this country and your kids and grandkids will hate you and your...

Something like 48% of the eligible white American population voted for Obama in '08. 94% of the eligible Black American voted for Obama.

Why? How do you explain it? Statistically the split between conservatives and liberals and independents is nothing like the skewed percentages stated above.

Blacks voted for Obama simply because of his skin color.

You feed and nourish a segment of the population on a diet that is flavored every day with stories of white people putting down and trying to "keep down" the black man and what the hell do you get? A population segment that only sees (tastes!) everything through the lens of racial inequality.

I treat every interaction with a black person as a chance to dispel...

MLK dreamed of a time when people in America would be judged on "the content of their character and not the color of their skin."

Obama and his belief system is based on the later and totally misses or purposely ignores the first point Dr. King was making.

The day when blacks, whites, hispanics and everyone else finally "gets" what MLK's true message was will people and leaders like Obama and his ilk finally get their comeuppance.

Our Race-Baiter in Chief is a joke after only 6 months. This guy is so far in over his head he must be chain-smoking under the desk in the Oval Office.

Can we have a recall election??

John Lewis walked in Selma 45 years ago and has he accomplished anything since?

If he committed a crime and said "I walked in Selma with MLK" would he get a pardon?

When are folks going to realize that just because you did something admirable decades ago, you get a free pass on all the stupid things you say and do for the rest of your life.

John, time to retire to the veranda and let someone else try to accomplish something for blacks in America. Given the state of Black America on average today, your track record doesn't look too good.

No one will admit it but this "rally" in the stock market is a nothing but a dead cat bounce.

The dollar will be in free fall within 12 months and oil will be at $120. Our President and Congress know less about economics than an 8th grade public schooler (sorry kids) and have no inclination to do anything.

This country is on the rocks and floundering. In 5 years we will have a new President and Congress after the landslide of 2012. Unfortunately, it won't change a thing. We are bankrupt in so many ways.

Not enough worker bees and a fading industrial and educational base that is simply worn out. We are living in a 1970's model in a 21st century world.

Get used to it. Your kids will have the standard of...
