I have another question. Do you really believe that only white people are racist? It goes both ways sweetheart.

Where do you people come up with this stuff? I'm a screenwriter, and despite from the many screenplays and television episodes I've written, I cannot wrap my mind around the fiction people like you spin in your heads on a daily basis.



Get it through your head that paranoia and the assignment of racism on every white person you can think of is a dog that just won't hunt. If President Bush were a real racist, you'd really know it by now, and by assigning racism to Corporate America, you're BEING racist by assigning a false accusation to the whole community of them, (many more than you think of whom are black,) and the whole Jena, LA mess is comprised of a bunch of riff-raff on BOTH sides.



Quit making these blanket statements, and you will quit opening YOURSELF up to having it all blow up in your face by being called a racist.

I guess you're refering to New Orleans, again, and how President Bush "let" all those blacks to die. You seem to forget that the whole country saw all those school buses still sitting in their parking lot. You're blaming the wrong public official for that. That distinction belongs soley to Mayor Ray Nagen. Again, in Jena, La. (by the way, notice it's the same state) the DA was an idiot for charging the one young man with attempted murder, but all of themshould have been charged with felony assault. The bad thing is, they beat up the wrong kid. The school district should have upheld the suspension (from school) of the white kid that hung the nooses from the tree.

The Jena-6 were just common thugs who need to be put away for LIFE. It ain't nobody fault but yours if you cant make a good living in America. Nice try.

Dare I say Condi Rice? - 1st woman black on a U.S. President Cabinet (National Security Adviser)



How about Colin Powell? - (nation's first black Secretary of State )



How about No Child Left Behind? How may blacks do you think benefited from that?



How about funding for black colleges by a full 30 percent?



These are just a few examples.

i can't speak for bush's personal views, but legislatively speaking he hasn't done anything to hurt blacks. those tards in jena are just thugs. you need to learn the meaning of "picking your battles", and realize that they aren't worth defending. corporate america would love the dollars of black citizens, every bit as much as the dollars that come out of white people's pockets. not sure what you're suggesting here, but it probably doesn't really exist.

Notice so many of the GOP candidates absences at the PBS African American based debate the other night? They aren't even pretending that they give a crap anymore. And then they have the nerve to ask stupid questions about why do black people usually vote Democratic. Amazing. I wish I knew why or could help you understand, but I don't understand it myself.

I certainly don't mean to offend you but this isn't a very clear question. What do you mean they don't care about black people? What should/shouldn't they be doing? Why do you think that black people should be treated any different than others? Isn't it equality that Martin Luther King Jr fought for? Black people ARE treated equally in AMERICA. If it's special treatment you are looking for, what's equal about that?

Bush and the corporate elite don't care about PEOPLE,period.Unless you're one of their own,that is.



As for Jena,LA.,all I can say is I see a lot of people getting face time,but the story is getting blurred by agendas outside of the situation.

The biggest rift all through history has always been one of class and economics. It's an even bigger prejudice than race. It just so happens that if you are poor and black, it's a double whammy.



I've noticed that a lot of black people tend to forget about o'l bro' and sis' when they become rich and famous. They get themselves a trophy blond wife and start living in whitey's world.

Umm, because they nearly beat a human being to death. Perhaps you think the noose justified this bludgeoning, but the silent majority of Americans do not.

oh please bush would not of been elected for president twice if he "didnt care about black people". Just becuase he might of done something that some African americans thought were not right doesnt mean he hates you. He does things that white people dont like all the time! Does this mean he hates white people too?

I have read black authors say that blacks thrive on playing the victim card.



What do you think? Will blacks pick themselves up ever?



Blacks seem to dislike blacks who "act white" and get a good education. Are you going to blame that on Bush?



Blacks degrade each other in lyrics. Why?



Black on black crime is off the scale. Why?



Black moms raise too many daughters who have kids at young ages instead of teaching those kids to get an education before having kids. Why?



I know wonderful blacks who are adorable. But, they don't try to play victim and stay in the inner city. They have done something about it. They aren't ashamed to have good educations "like whitey."

You people always on gov't assistance. One kid after another. Never practicing birth control, always on food stamps, welfare etc.



Try harder passing grades A+, in school, stay in school, get educated!



Learn good work habits, don't show up to work to talk talk talk and not work, you were hired to work. Don't be late. Don't abuse the sick leave policy either.

Oh I must have missed when there was legislation passed that specifically singled out and abused black people. . .

Its not necessarily racism, it has more to do with class. Bush and his people constantly try to protect their corporate priveleges and their incomes, and their perception is that because there are proportionately more low-income blacks than whites that blacks are a group that need to be curbed and prevented from taking a bite of their pie. So their policies tend to be ones that do not favour black issues.

What makes you think that they don't care? Maybe it's because the liberal democrats brainwash you into thinking every hates blacks and because democrats pander to minorities and make them feel like an entitled victim class!
