		<description>It is very easy to say white people are the largest recipients of the money but that is raw numbers.  When you use percentages of total population, a much more accurate way to measure, you might see something a lot different.

I also reject the idea that blacks were still slaves in the 60s.

And if the numbers are accurate then why are they crying about white oppression?  If one believes these numbers then there are no problems in the black community and they do not need Obama to buy them gas and houses like Peggy the Moocher.  What percentage of white people is that 50 million?

The 3 million in jail are on public assistance, the assistance that it costs to put them in jail.

Look, I am only pointing out the obvious.  We do not need to pay reparations.  Slavery happened a long time ago and if we pay blacks for what was a legal practice (no matter how objectionable) then we need to pay women who were not allowed to vote, Indians who were slaughtered so the white man could take their land and on and on.

Now, let&#039;s also get this straight.  Blacks from Africa captured the blacks in Africa and sold them into slavery.  What role do those blacks have in this?  Also, the descendants of slaves have it much better today than they would have if their bloodlines had remained in Africa.  One only needs to look at that country today to see that.</description>

		<description>&quot;Slavery happened a long time ago and no one who was a slave or who owned slaves is alive. Blacks in this country have every opportunity that whites have to achieve. They are not owned by anyone except the Democratic party and that is of their own doing.&quot;

Is this a joke?  I mean, if they&#039;re going to give reparations, wasting $8 million to study if they&#039;re going to give reparations is illogical on its face.  But your response is equally laughable, and illogical.

And slavery didn&#039;t happen a long time ago.  For the most part African descendants were still basically enslaved until the 1960&#039;s.  Where afterwards they were promptly jailed.  What your quoted friend also fails to realize is, WHITE PEOPLE are the main recipients of all those social programs.

86% of African Americans are employed, 91% in 2001.
75% of African Americans live ABOVE the poverty level.
11% of African Americans who live below the poverty level are not eligible for public assistance or any social program.
14% [or 5,292,000] of African Americans are below the poverty level are are eligible for public assistance, however 3,000,000 of those are jailed and don&#039;t receive public assistance, leaving 2,292,000 eligible for public assistance.

There are over 50 million white people on public assistance.  There aren&#039;t even 50 million African Americans in the United States.

[data from the : 2006 U.S. census]

Funniest Post I&#039;ve ever seen.</description>

		<description>Or maybe saying the troops had lost, they were terrorists, they were uneducated, and they were killing innocent people...

It all depends on your point of view.  I happen to think if he is successful with his policies it will mean America has failed because it will end in disaster.  You can support that if you want but I don&#039;t believe what he is doing is the right thing so I will not support it.

I support Obama but not his plans....</description>

		<description>No birth certificate was shown.  A Certificate of Live Birth was shown.  Hawaii will not even let people use that for certain transactions.  The real birth certificate has place of birth, mother and father, doctor&#039;s name and all kinds of other stuff.  The official said there was a document on file that complied with the law.  The law at the time allowed foreign births to be registered in hawaii.

Obama&#039;s grandmother said he was born in Kenya.

If he was born here he could clear it up by releasing the real birth certificate.  He has spent nearly a million dollars to keep it hidden.

I don&#039;t know what it says but until I see it he is suspect.  A usurper, if you will.

And questioning this is not inciting harm against him.</description>

		<description>You people don&#039;t know what you are talking about, ever lived near a reservation and know anyone who lives on one.  Drugs and alcohol, and mother&#039;s checks is what keeps them there</description>
