Why do some it seem, always make something of failure, have to do with Race. I hate that you know, that is such a huge copeout, and such a lame excuse.
Perhaps it just might be that the Majority of American People, do not agree with Obama's Policies, that just might have something to do with it, and color BLACK OR WHITE, is the least of importance, if the problem is addressed right. Our illegal situation, has not really been addressed by this President, he does not seem to think we have a problem with Illegals, so how can this problem ever be solved, always about Him, Obama, not what is good common sense for the American People.
The health care bill, he can take and shove it, so many were not for this bill, but he had to get this bill passed, regardless of it helping out the majority of Americans, so many were not for this bill, but he did not care, he is bull-headed.
Our unemployment crisis is the worse it has been in a while, and still so many getting laid off and some who have been with companies for years and years, have been sent packing, i know some of those poor People who have had to go.
This housing criris, is one of the worse ones ever, never have so many foreclosures and short sale and Repo properties, come on to the market, as we have seen this past year.
I feel that Obama has not listened to the will of what we Americans want, and what we don't want, he listens mostly to the beat of his own drum, and this is what has gotten him in trouble!
Is the Election Day Tail kicking of Democrats a reflection of Racism in America
Most of the candidate that lost elections were white so how is that a reflection of racism? Keep in mind that two Republican Congressman from the South got elected that were Black Americans and a Republican Latino female got elected as Governor of New Mexico and a Republican Cuban American got elected to the Senate from Florida.
You can't go looking for racism under every damn tree or every situation.
We already know that there are Americans that HATE that fact that there isn't a White American in the White House.
But this election result was a referendum on the frustration that people are feeling about the economy and governments inability to turn it around despite spending massive amounts of money. I also think it reflects the fact that many Americans felt like addressing the economy was more important than enacting health care reform.
Obama is a great guy and has charisma but his policies stink and if you don't agree with me then you are a racist homophobic, Islamophobic, City-Dataophobic lunatic.
It's merely an indication that the independents who helped get him elected have bailed on him, and that several states in the Deep South & the Rust Belt which he won in 2008 won't vote for him this time, ensuring his replacement in 24 months.
Tail kicking?
Is this the tsunami you assured us would happen?
Republicans won at least 58 seats in the House last night, maybe a couple more... that's the largest midterm gain since WWII. That's a tail kicking no matter how you look at it.
I believe so but you know there's a huge number of mentally unstable liberals out there who are so blinded by Obama that in their minds the only possible way a person could not love him and agree with everything he does/says/plans is because the person is a racist bigot. We saw this start before the 2008 elections and it hasn't gotten any better. If you have the pleasure of actually talking to one of the people in person you quickly realize that they're helpless, it's like brainwashing. As soon as anyone near them criticizes Obama their brain goes into freak out mode and they claim you're a racist. Never mind the fact that Obama himself is just as white as he is black...
Of course! We just figured out Obama was black the other day. Wish someone would have told Americans he was black 2 years ago.
