Many of the people who go around talking about Obama hasn't done anything for the poor and middle class generally break down into two categories - self-serving demagogues who are out to mislead the people for their own gain, and the victims of those demagogues who are basing their opinion on what they've been told, since most of them obviously haven't read anything beyond the sports page in twenty years. . They don't seem to understand that corporate fascists are poised to take away everything we've worked all of our lives to acquire. The GOP has rigged the system to allow international corporations to pour unlimited amounts of money into buying the very people who are suppose to protect us, they've mounted a brutal assault on our educational system to render us too uninformed to understand what's going on around us, they've organized a campaign to obstruct our right to vote, they're trying to abolish the Fair Labor Standards Act in an attempt to destroy our labor unions, and finally, they've mounted a campaign to abolish Social Security and Medicare. In short, the Republican Party is leaving no stone unturned to undermine our lives from cradle to grave. Yet, all these so-called "defenders of the poor" can focus on is attacking Obama, and implying on sites like "BlackBlueDog.com" (The term "Blue Dog Democrat" is credited to Texas Democratic Rep. Pete Geren - who later joined the Bush Administration) that Black people are intellectually challenged for feeling obliged to vote Democratic. Really!!!? Are these people idiots, or do they think we are? . And as for this so-called "Black summit" that Tavis and West are calling for at the White House that assumes that people like Smiley, West, and Boyce Watkins - who I assume expect to attend this summit - represents the Black community. No one elected you people to represent the Black community, and we don't need you to speak for us.
The Black community is communicating with the White House on a daily basis through thousands of letters, emails, and phone calls. In addition, we just touched base with the president through the polls in the last election. So the president undoubtedly knows more about what's on the mind of the Black community than you do.
So is this so-call summit that Tavis and West are calling for designed to help the Black community, or is it actually about shining a national spotlight on a group of nonproductive, loudmouth, egomaniacs who crave national attention?
If it is, here's a news flash. Your time has passed, and the Black community is sick to death of you. So please, go away.. . . MORE . http://wattree.blogspot.com/2012/11/what-has-obama-done-for-poor-and-middle.html
