You know what's dumb? Continuing with the same tired fallacies over and over and thinking people will take them seriously.
Weak, no answer, can't back up your own words - and that says it all.
Black unemployment has always been higher, and who needs a right-wing propaganda site to "stir the racial pot" with pointless and redundant "data" - the RW stock in trade. A really pathetic defence of ideology...

This poster still don't make any sense. No clue what right-wing propaganda site this individual is referring to. I posted no site anywhere.
Low information voters are what shyster politicians like Obama count on. Perhaps by virtue of the time this poster posted, they were soused on hooch.
The majority of people living in the US are White so that shouldn't come as any surprise.
It would make a bigger statement if races were equally represented but they aren't.

Indeed. What matters is percent as total population of each racial group. To merely go by sheer numbers is 1-dimensional thinking.
Yet the liberals including Obama are all about unlimited and very massive immigration --- they prefer the foreign cheap workers over getting unemployed Americans into jobs.
Fair enough. The OP's implication that somehow Obama's policies cause more black unemployment is servile to right-wing falsehoods. Black unemployment rises with unemployment and falls in full employment times. There are no new Obama programs to make it worse.
It's contradictory that the right-wing claims the government can't create jobs and then blames the government for not creating jobs.
I agree somewhat. I feel exactly the same about many of the positions the left holds. If you cry hypocrisy you have to be an equal opportunity crier.
You cannot discount the increased dependence on social nets that this administration has pushed. I know you're all tired of hearing about the 40% increase in food stamp usage. IT IS A FACT, and reflects the true health of our country. Their push to enroll people on SNAP has done much damage to the poor class, and is helping to keep them in poverty by choice.
Let's also face the reality of the generational poor who seem to prefer having a BA in social welfare programs, rather than being productive contributors to society. Welfare is supposed to be a hand up, not a profession.
@Winter_Sucks -- not all of us live in these forums, like many do, so the crickets remark was more your impatience than a lack counter challenges.
@HappyTexan -- I just looked up. Consider this a backup to your post.

Are you reading the thread at all??
** The website is in the OP.
** Low information voters are the Fox News bread and butter. You've been listening to Limbaugh, eh?
Remember my earlier post? 70% of Louisiana republicans think Obama was President in 2005 and was responsible for hurricane Katrina disaster relief. That's Fox doing its job.

More Limbaugh? Illegals are hired by conservative-owned businesses - you know, that dirt-cheap laborer who can be threatened with deportation. Let's put employers in jail for hiring them, eh?
Yeah, "unlimited" and "extremely massive" numbers of brown people coming in - be very afraid!! Cracking down on employers hiring undocumented workers.
Obama quote: “It means cracking down more forcefully on businesses that knowingly hire undocumented workers…most businesses want to do the right thing… So we need to implement a national system that allows businesses to quickly and accurately verify someone’s employment status. And if they still knowingly hire undocumented workers, then we need to ramp up the penalties.” And who opposes this? Republicans of course.
