Quote from traderNik:
It's pretty funny to see the extreme right on here taking the moral high ground when it comes to one of the Dems making a few bucks on an insider deal once they got into office. Nope, no Republican has ever done anything like that, ever. Never in the history of the country has any Republican ever done anything even remotely close to this.
You right wing extremists should stick to the Reverend Wright story - it has way more play than the Rezko thing.
Pabst, the idea of a black man in the Oval Office must just be a fucking nightmare for someone like you, who has trumpeted his hatred and fear of black men on these boards for the past 4 years.
You should in fact be praying for an Obama win, as it would ensure a McCain Presidency.
I don't recall saying there's never been a corrupt Republican. Please link me a quote. Ah, there is no quote. Then go fuck yourself.
Yea tradernot I don't like many blacks. As a minority white, born and raised in fact just several blocks from Obama's home, I put up with the backlash from the Wright's of the world for years. Why was Obama surprised at the reaction Wright drew? Because Wright is no more racist than
dozens of black "spiritual advisers" on Chicago's South Side. If you think going to school, riding public transportation and playing hoops in the park with black kids who grew up with that rhetoric was a picnic then you're delusional. Like a million or so other Chicago whites we were ultimately forced to move because of safety concerns.
It wasn't an issue of poor vs. rich. Chicago is home to many of the wealthiest blacks in America including Oprah, MJ, Ali, Farrakhan, the Johnson's of publishing (Ebony and Jet) and the Johnson's of hair products. (Afro-Sheen) Being a Chicago black is not like living in Selma. It's a city of black cops, black teachers, black politicians and a school system that spends $18,000 a year per pupil.
Want some facts.
Seventeen black school kids have been slain this year
on school property. Under 11% of public school students in Chicago are now white. Gee, wonder why. I'll repeat it so you'll have more insipid ammo. Fully 40% of the Black's I've known are assholes. Makes me sad because I had a workman over today who's one of the sweetest people I've ever known. When asked he'd best my 40% by 25. He say's 2/3rds of the guys he grew up with have been or are in prison.
For some fucking
Canadian to comment on American race relations is laughable. But then again you're sort of a joke anyway......
