A few questions:

Corruption? Prove. You guys haven't been able to stick anything to him.
Assault on taxpayers: He lowered taxes, so I don't know what you're bitching about.

Wealth Distribution: If only! Wealth has been redistributed upwards in this country for the past 30 years. You guys only call it class warfare when we fight back. Hypocrites.
You're in denial. Just keep drinking the koolaid and slap those Hope 'n Change bumper stickers on your car like a good little Obamatron.

Both, actually, and neither are going away. Those who cling to their delusions are older and we can only hope, if they did reproduce, their spawn will be smarter.

I doubt any liberal missed the Biden "quote"---which is actually a misquote, by the way but we can let the slide. It's the OP's added words of "the great experiment" that's highly offensive. It's an insult to all of us who studied the issues and the candidates and felt that Obama was the better person to head the country.

I like Herman Cain so far. If there is an "experiment" going on, he would be a sure winner over The Joker.
Herman Cain may have run a pizza chain, but he's never run a city council meeting. I doubt he has any idea how government works.

This black author says it's time to let go of keeping racism front n center, it's become a habit more than a reality. He is right, if you don't count the pervasive racism against whites.

So, in answer to the question, "Is America past racism against black people," I say the answer is yes.
Of course, nothing magically changed when Obama was declared president-elect. However, our proper concern is not whether racism still exists, but whether it remains a serious problem. The election of Obama proved, as nothing else could have, that it no longer does.

There is no such thing. Never was, and never will be in this country. It's in your mind. Get that checked out, because believe me, you're imagining things.

Please, you've got a chip on your shoulder the size of Manhattan. It's in every post you make. Deny deny deny, if that makes you feel better. You feel the need to constantly remind us what color you are - we don't care!

Then don't answer me. I mention my color in posts related to color. Kinda how it works.

And there is no denial on my part....just delusion on your part. No chip on my shoulder either. That so called "chip" you see is me giving the bigots a taste of their own medicine. If i'm touching a nerve, go see a neurologist.

Ooops...i think i just touched another one.

Not once, but TWICE!

Bush was excoriated all day every day by the left.

obama to conservatives is what Bush was to liberals.

Should he get a pass? Because of his race? Is that what you're saying?
