Post SOTU Commentary

"Do you think we should spend more federal dollars we don't have to keep people in houses they can't afford?"  Imus in the Morning replacement Joe Scarborough said NO, they should be tossed out into the street, in response to President Obama's proposal of a new task force to tackle investigation of bank's mortgage lending practices.  So, how did investigating banks who put people in homes they couldn't afford morph into spending more federal dollars we don't have to keep people in houses they can't afford?

The gop infused, media enabled, Tea Party politics of Obstructionism and Negativity is coming home to roost.   Despite what the Talking TeeVee Pundit Heads say, the majority of the American people,not to be confused with the Suckers, blame republicans, not democrats, for the grave state of our Union.

Despite the misinformed opinion of some, food stamps is not an entitlement program, and black folks aren't issues food stamps because their black.  Food stamps are issued based on need.   Thanks to republican polices and obstructionism, more Americans need food stamps.

The gop doesn't have a plan, so they use weapons of mass distraction like an Atlanta, Georgia judge orders President Obama to appear in court on Thursday to counter a birther claim.  I thought republicans were for tort reform? Snark

Although President Obama used his speech to obliterate the gop lies and obstructionism, his team must desegregate.

Do the math.
In 2008, encouraged by Obama’s surprisingly strong showing in the caucuses in overwhelmingly white Iowa, Black voters launched their own grassroots efforts to elect the “first Black president,” Obama won, despite receiving just 43 percent of white voter support nationwide.
The problem in 2012 is that Axelrod and “Team Obama” seem intent on delivering the same basic approach they used in 2008, wrapped in high-tech gadgetry and bolstered by more money than has ever been spent in a presidential campaign.
At its core, however, the outreach strategy, is flawed, and unless the campaign takes steps very soon to ensure African American senior-level strategic input, and an effort that reflects a healthy respect for Black voters, the “First Black president” will only get to serve one term in office.
