Why can't we go back to good ol' days when blacks counted for only 3/5 of a person! Hee-haw! Dag-nabit! Them was good times!

So by singling out blacks, who have more food stamp recipients proportionately, the GOP is not racist? By Newt and Santorum's logic, anyone who receives food stamps is lazy and never learned a work ethic. Why would they dump on blacks? One answer: Southern votes.

Cordray is attacking usury in pay day lending? Goddamnit, literally: (Exodus 22:25-27) 25 " If you lend money to any of My people who are poor among you, you shall not be like a moneylender to him; you shall not charge him interest.
26 "If you ever take your neighbor's garment as a pledge, you shall return it to him before the sun goes down.
27 "For that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin. What will he sleep in? And it will be that when he cries to Me, I will hear, for I am gracious."

The government did pretty well for Halliburton, KB&R and Blackwater.

No twisting, just verbatim quotes. Can't argue with facts. These guys are racist, appealing to racist voters.

Newt: “More people are on food stamps today because of Obama's policies than ever in history. I would like to be the best paycheck president in American history. ... And so I'm prepared if the NAACP invites me, I'll go to their convention and talk about why the African-American community should demand paychecks and not be satisfied with food stamps.”

Santorum: "I do not want to make black people's lives better by giving them somebody else's money. I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money."

Black didn't enslave whites; Indians didn't commit genocide on whites; Blacks didn't impose Jim Crow laws on whites; black generals, politicians and defense contractors didn't send troops to Vietnam or Iraq. The facts are obvious. My being white is coincidence.

I wonder why Newt and Santorum don't pick on white people. They get the most food stamps.

Food Stamp Use By Race* (as of the 2010 FY)
Whites: 35% participation | 63.7% of US population
African Americans: 22% participation | 12.2% of US population
Hispanic: 10% participation | 16.3% of US population
Asian: 2% participation | 4.7% of US population
American Indian: 4% participation | 0.7% of US population
Unknown race: 19% participation | 0.2% of US population

You mean atrocities were perpetrated by the Chinese and Cambodian communists? Wow. I'd never heard that. I'm so glad one guy on the internet has informed of those hardships. Now I guess we HAVE TO suspend the Constitution, round up all commies and send them to the worst place in America: South Carolina. Whew. Now we're safe. Thanks for setting me straight. And to paraphrase FDR, "I welcome your vomit."

No doubt China and Cambodia got screwed but good, but this is America, where state senators from Arizona have a right to affiliate with any political party they want. It's in the Constitution. Plus, using the extremes of the Khmer Rouge and the Chinese Cultural Revolution to invalidate any form of collective wealth redistribution is idiotic. Medicare and Social Security are socialistic, and I don't see too many senior citizen burning their ss cards and renouncing their payments. Communism in the U.S. is a joke, and the only reason anyone is freaked out by it is because they're too afraid to look at the real threat to our society: corrupt capitalism.
