(which I'm sure is supposed to be self-deprecating or ironic or both) Now, I don't entirely know what is going there and to be honest, I GENUINELY couldn't care less. But it just goes to show that there are all types around here.
There are not many black Obama detractors here. Hell, there are not many black posters here period. But there have been a few. One that comes to mind was RaineyB. Rainey was hugely disappointed in the president and she made that abundantly clear. But Rainey was also here in the AA forum regularly and there was no question that much of her disappointment was because she felt the president could be doing much more to help black people out. I disagreed with her on alot of things but I liked Rainey alot and I was very upset when she got tombstoned. I still don't know what happened.
If black folks want to criticize the president I welcome that! I have my issues too and would love an honest conversation. But when you resort to bullshit to slam the man and his government, we're going to have a problem.
And I was just talking about how people here are quick to co-opt MLK and others in the most rage-inducingly idiotic ways to prop up their idiotic "beliefs" and then that POS turned up front and center on the home page. You cannot make this shit up.
