Ironic, wouldn't you say?

Your comment is rather silly.
Teabaggers don't like him; you might remember some of the videos where many US citizens said that they didn't want a black president...
Funny, do you really think that a conservative black man would have the backing of the R party?
That's a real knee slapper.

You said that race consumes the country. That implies everyone! It is just not a fair or accurate statement.

I stand by what I say. Everyone in this country is impacted by the continuing racial dialogue and conflicts we have had since before this country was founded. It is an inescapable fact.

Here's a link to the article.


Apparently that's what liberal representatives in Congress think of the American people.

Too late.
