Liberals and Black America

That obama got 90% of the black vote is a sure sign that the black community has failed to embrace the ideals of the founding fathers and the free market.


Unfortunately the ones rational enough to have a conversation with are so fixated on racial injustices whether real or imagined that they openly gravitate towards communist philosophy/solutions.


Talk about your tragic irony!

Or maybe hearing the chants of nigg*r ,monkey, or kill him at McCain and Palin rallies turned them off

After seeing the non existent people of color at tea bagger rallies or the Republican convention I can understand why they wouldn't feel very welcome
 
Quote from ..........:

While no party is responsible or can fix the problems in the black community,Democrats are by far better for blacks then Republicans

Their are many examples but right look at the issue of health care.Blacks far out number whites when it comes to not having health care.Democrats want to make access to health care available to every American ,Republicans don't and only talk about tort reform and selling insurance across state lines which will not do anything to help people with pre existing conditions

I remember in a town hall a black women explained to Eric Cantor that she had a sick relative who couldn't get ins because she was sick,Cantor told her she should look for some sort of charity health care

I don't see how any race could vote for such heartless bastards

Thanks you just made my point.
It's sad when people wrap their whole identity around their skin tone at the expense of rational thought/philosophy.

Why don't the democrats quit trying to buy votes with other people's money and endorse free market reforms?

Eric Cantor thinks begging for health care is better I guess




Cantor To Uninsured Woman With Growing Tumors: Get ‘An Existing Government Program’ Or Find Charity


At the Richmond Times-Dispatch “public square” forum yesterday, Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) fielded open questions from his constituents on the health reform debate for the first time this summer.

Patricia Churchill relayed a story about a close family member who recently lost a high paying job and her health insurance. Churchill told Cantor that her relative was dying of stomach tumors and needs an operation as soon as possible. Cantor responded by suggesting that Churchill’s relative should seek “existing government programs” or find charity.

Cantor, who serves as the chief whip for his party, has said that he cannot support a health reform bill with a public option. But despite his political opposition to government insurance programs, Cantor then emphasized to Churchill that every American should be given an “option” for health care, including a government program:

CHURCHILL: I have a very close relative, a woman in her early forties, who did have a wonderful, high-paying job, owns her own home and is a real contributing member of society. She lost her job. Just a couple of weeks ago, she found out that she has tumors in her belly and that she needs an operation. Her doctors told her that they are growing and that she needs to get this operation quickly. She has no insurance. [...]

CANTOR: First of all I guess I would ask what the situation is in terms of income eligibility and the existing programs that are out there. Because if we look at the uninsured that are out there right now, there is probably 23, 24% of the uninsured that is already eligible for an existing government program [...] Beyond that, I know that there are programs, there are charitable organizations, there are hospitals here who do provide charity care if there’s an instance of indigency and the individual is not eligible for existing programs that there can be some cooperative effort. No one in this country, given who we are, should be sitting without an option to be addressed.

In an interview with ThinkProgress after the event, Churchill explained that her relative, who needs help now, probably won’t qualify for a low-income government program like Medicaid and that there are very long waiting periods for charity programs. Asked about Cantor’s response to her question, Churchill said, “it was helpful in a sense, but of course nowhere near as helpful as having this healthcare reform bill passed so that we could know that she could definitely go and get taken care of.”

Today, Cantor called for “scrapping” President Obama’s proposed public option insurance program.
