debt ceiling now because Obama is black

Sorry Bud, but wavy lines ain't facts.

I recall some character refuting my assertion that assault weapons accounted for minimal use in violent crimes. He refuted me with "facts" posting a statistic published by the DOJ FBI or ATF revealing assault weapons were used in 20% of all violent gun crimes.

He didn't research the "facts" that day. I did. It turned out that statistic incorporated assault weapons with ALL longarms, including rifles and shotguns. That was not readily ascertainable by the statistic and required probing to expose the sham methodlogy of reporting.

So pardon me when I see a very suggestively printed graph and am not as willing to swallow that BS as fact like you are. I have been down that road enough times to know better.

This coming from the same woman who claimed Pepsi was racist for airing this commercial:

Sheila Jackson Lee is nothing more than a bigot who has spent a lifetime looking for ways to feel offended.

Absolutely. We have an entirely ethnically-run City called DETROIT Nearby. 95% of the city council's efforts are to ensure that the city REMAINS Black Controlled, and STAYS that way.

It's absolutely shameful....

I call it reverse discrimination at it's finest.

[stax]

it does matter.

No disrepect, but that is an answer of the smug. Example: Okay, everything is all because of Bush, you win, I concede. So, how does that change the fact that we are here and what are we going to do about it?

it does matter.

unless you can change the past it really doesnt matter. Its what we (or in this case the current crop of politicians) are doing or have done to make things better or worse.

"Racism is like high blood pressure—the person who has it doesn’t know he has it until he drops over with a God damned stroke. There are no symptoms of racism. The victim of racism is in a much better position to tell you whether or not you’re a racist than you are." - Coleman A. Young

And THIS coming from the same guy who told all of the "honkies" to "get north of 8 mile".

More often than not, those that point the finger of racism, are bitter racists themselves. Sheila Jackson Lee and the late Coleman A. Young are one in the same ... divide and conquer, baby!

About a year ago I was watching 2 black people debate something. I cant remember what it was or the 2 people who were debating. One was a black liberal and the other was a black conservative. I was stunned when the black liberal told the black conservative to "get back on the porch". I thought liberalism was about tolerance? Its not. They preach it but they dont live it. Yet seems much of the so called racism is coming from the left. But then there is racism on the right too.
Strange when you think about it. The right preaches family values and gets caught cheating When the left does it they claim that they dont preach family values so it makes their "sin" less. But the left claims the right is racist but the left does it at least as much. They violate their message of tolerance. Why is it neither party can do as they say/preach?

Okay It's no secret I'm married to a Woman of Color. I have FIRST HAND experience watching Black Culture. Their Basic problem is that Black folks just can't get along with each other. They are divided among themselves. When Caucasian folks are threatened they Band Together as a Unit. People of Color also do the same---for about 5 or ten minutes then someone busts a cap into somebody else and it's on.

This seems very peculiar to me as Latinos, Asians and other Races will inherently group together to defend themselves. I'm guessing they have never gotten the concept of United we Stand, divided we Fall.

I'm not being to far off here with my conclusions as my Darling WIFE was the one that pointed this fact out to me. I've watched it occur within her own Family (Her side is fucking HUGE--easily 1000 people).

I just stand there slack-jawed and amazed....

Uh, what?

I just said that it does matter, sorry I disagreed with you. Ha ha

Pull yourself out of the arguement and get a perspective.

It does matter how we got here, this is so basic, don't ever forget how we got to this point. It will always help in the long run.

As far as your politics, I don't give a shit. (now that's smug)

unless you can change the past it really doesnt matter. Its what we (or in this case the current crop of politicians) are doing or have done to make things better or worse.

Seriously?

"If we forget the past we are doomed to repeat it."

This applies to everything, long term and short term.

The U.S. may drop its top-notch credit score if the debt limit isn't elevated and the nation is forced to default on commitments. A reduction in rating will trigger a ripple in the economic system influencing the pocket book of the average resident. I read this here: The U.S. credit rating will fall if the debt ceiling is not increased.
