So, University of Alabama Alum, red, republican, right wing, congress critter turned Talking TeeVee Pundit Head Joe Scarborough used the public airways to spew misinformation, and smear Michael Brown after some members of the St. Louis Rams football team dared put their hands in the air before the game on Sunday in solidarity with protesters in Ferguson,
Scarborough’s bloviating was unrelenting and exhausting. The talk show
host believes the black people supporting the Ferguson based protests
are using a poor example by taking up the cause of the “thug” named Mike
Brown. As an aside, I think I would like that word to go the way of
b*tch, f*g, and ni**er. When do you ever hear that term used against
anyone except people of color?
After you watch the video read 8 Thoughts on Joe Scarborough's Ferguson Rant.
1) There is nothing more insufferable than a pompous white guy telling black people how to act.
This should be so damn obvious. Even Joe himself points out the
unfairness to black people on the streets and in the courts of this
nation. The system is rigged and only a white fool doesn’t know that.
The difference is, black people live it. Considering that,
imagine having a rich white guy going on television and letting you know
what you have the right to be outraged over? A man who can hail a cab
with ease, can shop in a retail establishment without being watched, and
has many fewer worries about getting shot just because of an accident
of birth. At least moderate your damn tone.

"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.
