Equality.....yeah right.

People will never be equal because the black community wants to dominate over the white community. It would be their final revenge to whitie. They don't want to be equal to white people.....they want to dominate and look down on white people. We haven't seen the worst of this yet. It is truly scary to think what Obama will allow as far as racism goes.....that is as long as it is racism again the white folk.

I am all for equality....

but I just do not see how it will every come to be because there is such animosity still out there. Racism is such an ugly thing and yet it continues to rear its ugly head. Some parents have literally passed down their hatred of other races to their children. I'm all for knowing your past and your heritage. I think people should know where they come from and the trials there ancestors went through. On the flip side, I think we need to let it go. Some people feel they are owed because their ancestors suffered. Well.....whose ancestors didn't suffer? Does it make me better than someone else if I go around spatting how my ancestors suffered and how I deserve something because of that......of course not.

Look at what happened to Native Americans. Look at what has happened to the Jews. Look at what has happened to African-Americans and on and on. Does that make one better than the other? No. I think we as Americans need to learn from the past but stop living in the past and embrace our fellow Americans no matter what color their skin is.......but I just don't foresee that happening. The races are too busy crying foul play and playing the race card when convenient. Yes, there is racism and it goes both ways, but sometimes I think the race card is played when race has nothing to do with anything. For example, if Obama should lose, all we will hear about is how he lost because he is a black man. Who cares if he is black. In my opinion, he should lose because I don't think he is the man for the job. I'm sure some people will not vote for him because he is black and I'm sure some people will vote for him just because he is black.......but that doesn't hold true for everyone. I'm a white woman who isn't voting for a black man because I don't think he is a good candidate or the man for the job but if he loses (which I hope he does) the race card will be played to its fullest extent.

So much for unity and equality.
Obama adviser: White males need not apply

.Robert Reich tells House panel stimulus package should emphasize 'social return' over worker skill

� 2009 WorldNetDaily

A top economic adviser to President Obama has told a
congressional panel the billions of dollars in the proposed economic
stimulus plan should be allocated with social issues in mind, to make
sure the money doesn't go to just "white male construction workers" or
the highly skilled.Robert Reich, who served as labor secretary
under President Clinton, was speaking to the House Steering and Policy
Committee Jan. 7 about funding infrastructure projects across the
nation."It seems to me that infrastructure
spending is a very important and good way of stimulating the economy.
The challenge will be to do it quickly, to find projects that can be
done that will have a high social return, that also can be done with
the greatest speed possible," Reich said.

"I am concerned, as I'm sure many of you are, that these jobs not
simply go to high skilled people who are already professionals or to
white male construction workers," he said.

Reich's statements were highlighted in a video by NakedEmporerNews, which is embedded here:

The hearing took place two weeks before Obama was inaugurated.

"I have nothing against white male construction workers," Reich
said. "I'm just saying there are a lot of other people who have needs
as well.
"There are ways in which the money can be, criteria can be set
so the money does go to others, the long term unemployed, minorities,
women," he said.
Rep. Charles Rangel, D-N.Y., appeared to agree, suggesting federal money be directed to specific groups of people.

The federal government, he said, must "remove the discretion"
about where the funds go, or what projects would be involved, even to
the point of eliminating any input from governors or state legislatures.Reich agreed: "Governors ought to be, should be given a choice of signing on the bottom line or not."

Then Rangel noted the "middle class" would be unlikely to create any opposition to funds directed to minorities.

"One thing that you can depend on, you don't have to be worried
about what the middle class is going to do. Things are so bad, they
have to put food on their tables, get clothes for their kids, get them in school," he said.

Who
is Barack Obama REALLY? Get the book that says his "change" is designed
to uproot American culture and replace it with the failed, secular,
socialist policies of the past.

Commentator Michelle Malkin said Reich's statements expose "the
lie that the Obama administration is actually interested in
revitalizing basic infrastructure for the good of the economy."
"No, what Team Obama really wants is to ensure that the least
skilled, least qualified workers get jobs based on their chromosomes
and pigment," she said.
Malkin cited Reich's own blog,
where the Obama adviser wrote of the economic stimulus plan: "I'd
suggest that all contracts entered into with stimulus funds require contractors

to provide at least 20 percent of jobs to the long-term unemployed and
to people with incomes at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty
level."
This, Malkin wrote, is "spoken like a true-blue wealth
redistributor. The 'needs' (read: demands) of politically protected
minorities trump the need for competently build roads and bridges."

Reich's blog headline

On his blog, Reich makes his case for, "The Stimulus: How to
Create Jobs Without Them All Going to Skilled Professionals and White
Male Construction Workers."
"At least 2 percent of project funds should be allocated to such training.
In addition, advantage should be taken of buildings trades
apprenticeships -- which must be fully available to women and
minorities," he wrote.
Race already has become an issue several times in the Obama administration.

As WND reported, Democratic Party strategist Donna Brazile admitted she swiped Obama's complimentary blanket
from his inauguration ceremony and then joked it was not a criminal
offense because, "We have a black president ... this was free."
Outrage also erupted over the inauguration
benediction by Rev. Joseph Lowery, the 87-year-old civil rights pioneer, for
asking God to help mankind work for a day when "white would embrace what is
right."

Obama reacted to the benediction with a smile.

I like equality and fairness.....like most grown-ups...nm

But......he's not trying to promite equality and unity
@@

There needs to be equality and fairness in congress
Don't shoot me - these are only my observations. Granted I have been very busy with work only catching the news in between, but what I have seen over the past few days or a week is that the republicans are not being treated fairly by the democrats. I voted for Obama because I believed that he would be the best choice and like he said he would be able to get the republicans and democrats to be able to work together. I didn't see that with McCain. I didn't vote for Obama because of his plans because I knew it was just campaigning and all a bunch of garbage. No president yet to this date has ever fulfilled their campaign promises. But I voted for Obama because I believed he would unite the two parties together and maybe something could get done in Washington to help the people. What I have seen so far is just too sad beyond words. More failed promises. I was truly hoping for some "class", but I don't see it happening and I'm not sure if it's worse than it was before. Granted it's only been a couple weeks and I keep hoping things will turn around, but seems like all the people Obama is picking for his cabinet members are democrats (and crooked ones at that) with maybe one or two republicans to give the illusion that he is giving fairness to both sides. As for the congress, all I see on the news is they are acting like a bunch of spoiled children. They are blatantly ignoring republicans as thought they are children saying "we won and you didn't nana nana na na. We don't have to listen to you now nana nana na na" (remember that little song you used to do as kids). There many great republicans and many great democrats. My husband keeps telling me we have to have check and balance. He said these republicans represent part of the country too. Not every person in this country is a democrat and if we give full reign to them that is when you have a dictatorship (tyranny or whatever you want to call it) and they will pass anything they want to paying back all the people who bought them and they promised favors to.

The last administration was certainly not one of the best, but neither was the Clinton or Carter either. DH and I were talking about it last night and he said during Carter administration it was so bad that the only thing out there was the military to join, and that it what I am seeing starting to happen here.

I don't think anything should be "given" to either one side or the other, but the republicans deserve to be treated with the same respect that people are demanding they treat the democrats with. There are good ideas on both sides and if congress is filled with people lining their own pockets then maybe they need to be fired now so we can start again with people who care about the American people and what is happening to the country.

I believe that congress should be filled with people from outside of washington. There are so many good politicians in each state (ones we have never heard of yet), who do good things. Maybe it's time to get rid of people like Pelosi, Reid, Kerry, and all the "stable" washington crowd and replace with people who have a proven record of doing good for our country.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You've said before that you're leaving, but you and your goons can't sta

yeah, yeah, yeah.....what he failed to mention...
is that the Dems are responsible for the mortgage meltdown which is responsible for the wall street meltdown. Chris Dodd, Barney Frank...totally to blame. Blocked every attemmpt by Bush Admin and yes, McCain, to regulate fannie/freddie. Dems certainly have selective memories...convenient bouts of amnesia. lol.

Oh, yeah yeah, whatever. There's plenty of satan here, that is for sure!

Yeah, yeah, everything is funny. Wont
nm

Yeah, yeah, yeah....still protesting too much. (nm)
nm

Oh yeah. It says a lot.

Yeah, you are probably right. sm
After all, everyone must be lying. Everyone on the right, all liars. Al Franken says so, so it must be true. You know what is wrong with you guys. You cannot handle confrontation or anyone who doesn't agree with you at all!

Well, yeah.....nm
nm.

Yeah really.nm
x

yeah, you are sure right about that.
Almost every single post on that board is like it was written by a bunch of annoying, redneck teenage boys!!!!

Yeah.
Whatever.

Yeah? So what?

That's exactly what I said. Scarborough has always supported Bush. There is a difference between supporting and blindly following. For example, you see nothing wrong with how this case was handled. You see nothing wrong with Bush lying every time he opens his mouth. That's blind faith.

Scarborough is an objective Republican who believes in honesty. I realize this is a difficult concept for some CONS to understand. Once upon a time, honesty was considered a good thing in the United States. People who were honest were considered to have moral character and integrity. Scarborough is one of those rare of Republicans, totally foreign to you, I'm sure.

To blindly follow (which I'm sure you're quite familiar with) means worshiping a man as if he's some kind of god, believing every single word he says, even when you see evidence to the contrary right before your eyes. He lies every day; those who follow blindly believe him every day. And when it becomes common knowledge that he's lied and when they can't twist and manipulate the lie out of recognition any more, then his blind followers make excuses for him, usually blaming democrats or anyone else who is handy but never blaming the liar himself. And they justify all the lying because they have that special *connection* with God. They can lie all they want and God just winks at them and says it's okay because their place in heaven has already been guaranteed, unlike the rest of us poor slobs out there without that special connection.

The only thing that scares me more than Bush having the same credibility as Al Qaeda is the fact that there are so many morons who blindly follow him, who just aren't smart enough to figure out that Bush was never on their side - he's only on the side of big money. He even joked about his *base* - the *haves* and the *have nots.*

By the way, you are on the liberal board. If you don't care for the liberal point of view, the CON board is ---->

Yeah.
Whatever.

Yeah, whatever!!! ....nm

Yeah probably, but it's only okay when you do it?
Right? The rest of us should be ashamed.

Yeah. Whatever you say.

I was responding to this: *And know a lot PK. I know A LOT about your posting habits more than you could ever imagine.* I was accused of doing something I simply didn't do, so that just shows me how much you people really DO know, and, yes, I can *imagine* a LOT when faced with this kind of ominous post.

Those of your ilk have dark histories of murdering people of different beliefs (for example, personnel at abortion clinics), and the latest tactic of the Neocons is intimidation and retribution. Just ask Valerie Plame, who used to have a career before her husband spoke the truth.

If someone said that to you on your board, you'd be accusing them of threatening to assassinate you and contacting the FBI. Who are you KIDDING? Typical neocon double standard and hypocrisy at work again.

Yeah, so did LBJ.

but the point is, the far left hates Cheney as much or more than Bush, so impeach Bush, get Cheney, then what? Impeach Cheney? Then you get Hastert. I know the far left doesn't like him. Impeach him and get Ted Stevens. He's a Republican, too. (President pro tempore of the Senate). Impeach him and get...Condi Rice...if she isn't buying shoes. What have you gained. Absolutely nothing. Well...maybe some payback for Clinton, which is what this is all about anyway. Why not just wait until 2008 and vote the bums out.

Yeah...I know...sm
And I didn't agree with Pat Roberson calling for his death, and in the wake of Katrina Bush could have accepted his olive branch for fuel.

However, I think Chavez's speech was disrespectful being how the UN is hosted by the US. We can't think Dem vs Rep. He disrespected the US.

Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Two posters identifying themselves as liberals stated it was more important to investigate Bush than to concentrate on terrorism. That does not stem from anything but hatred and revenge. Fact, ma'am. No bumper sticker talk. Nancy Pelosi yelled impeachment right up until two weeks before the election and how it was first on her list when they got power. Had they not filled the seats with conservative Democrats rather than liberal ones I am pretty darn sure that would have gone forward. And that also stems from hatred of conservatism first, George Bush second, and a desire for revenge. She talks about ridding Washington of corruption on the one hand, and then supports Murtha (I will not go into his corruption) and Hastings (a Federal judge who was impeached and who she voted to impeach) for a chairmanship. She has absolutely no credibility in my eyes, and apparently the new conservative Democrats in the house don't think so either, as they did not goose step in line and vote in her choice. Good for them! Also had another liberal post that aborting a child was like removing a wart or a cancer. That is not hate, that is completely morally bankrupt. Somewhere along the line the liberal morality meter has gone wonky, and in my humble opinion it is BECAUSE of rational and analytical thought devoid of emotion, and stopping listening to that small still voice inside you, that soul that God put in you when he created you. Yes, I am emotional, because I believe it was leading to the decay of the American soul. I will fight it the best way I know how, and that is to stand for what I believe in, and kneeling to pray for this country and EVERYone in it. God bless, Lurker.

Yeah, I know.....
you would think I would stop trying. However, I keep thinking that maybe, somehow, somewhere, something might sink in....sighhh.

Yeah, it goes like that. SM

Teddy says they all communicate by e-mail or are related, so it's not surprising since they all kind of show up at one time. It's been that way so long. Anyhoo, we can take and they can't!

Yeah, you are right. SM
And you guys stalk people, wish them to die, and wished the president and his family burn in hell. That's so much better.

Yeah!!!
Gave me goose bumps! His wife must be beside herself ~ Thanks for the heads up

yeah
nn

Yeah, right. We can all see just how
nm

Yeah...right. LOL. nm

Oh yeah.....
Michael Moore's INfamous quotes:

"Should such an ignorant people lead the world? How did it come to this in the first place? 82 percent of us don't even have a passport! Just a handful can speak a language other than English."

He thinks you are ignorant.

"I like America to some extent." Yeah, that's patriotic.

"There's a gullible side to the American people. They can be easily misled. Religion is the best device used to mislead them."

He thinks you are gullible. Although I disagree about religion. I think political parties are the best way.

"white people scare the crap out of me."

I don't EVEN know where to go with that statement. lol.

"Clinton was a pretty good president for a Republican."

ROFL. He really is up on American politics.

"The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the revolution, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow - and they will win."

'Nuff said.

Yeah!!!!
nm

Yeah I'm an MT. What does that
have to do with anything? Have heard it all, can transcribe it all. Palin gets on my last nerve....what's it to ya?

oh yeah? and just how are you going to do that?
nm

Oh yeah?
PFBBBLLLTTT!!!

yeah right, like her
BIL who self-admittedly tazed his own kid, and who abused his wife, etc. I applaud Sara Palin on every level including this one!

Yeah!
Laws? We don't need no stinkin' laws.

yeah and if...sm
they would have chosen Fox for the first interview, boy, what the outcry from the left would have been then.

They were actually quite wise to choose ABC, in my opinion. She walked into the lion's den, and came out virtually unscathed.

IMHO.

Yeah, that is what they would like you to believe...
but the last line seems to pretty much describe the democrats nowadays...a cycle of hatred and intolerance.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.......
.

yeah, right
I remember the last 2 elections when Barbra Streisand and Rose McDonnell said if Bush won they were leaving the country. They're both still here (darn it). Even with all the problems, you are going to be hard pressed to find anything better.

Yeah, sure you do, right
x

yeah, I do, with you, lol!
blah!!

Yeah, but
At least Pelosi seems somewhat intelligent. Watching Palin talk, it is hard to believe she graduated college or even high school some days.

Yeah, unfortunately O will probably be the next
nm

oh yeah?
2 - 4 - 6 - 8.. who do you appreciate???

MCCAIN MCCAIN MCCAAAAAIIINNNN!!!

NO OBAMA

yeah, so what?

Why does BOND (Jessie Lee Peterson) get so little attention? Look what the Dems did to Michael Steele (who, incidentally, is just one hot man) simply for being in the "wrong" party? And Alan Keyes...another pariah just because they're conservative.

See a pattern here?

Yeah okay
please don't read them. I would hate to think I made someone go off the deep end by asking them a stinkin question.

yeah, right

Far from it. I have black friends. When one of our MQ black MTs was having really tough times, I was there for her every day. To quote her, "you've been there from the start."

I don't condone racism one bit, but it's not illegal--just like the KKK and their nutty racism isn't illegal. It's just disgusting.

I could care less what you think. I know what I know. Boo hiss.

Yeah.
And just a very hateful person.
