  • "You ain't a man you a coward if you cant support the girl you put a seed in"

    - Nas

  • Brothers are needed by their children. If you are not there for your children, people with bad intentions are able to do anything to your children.

  • They often draw attention to the negatives of blacks and never the positives. We fall into it and began making speeches as if there are no black fathers... The truth is fathers leaving the home has become and American epidemic. Also black fathers who are not in the home are three times more likely to see the children regularly than white men, because they will likely live in the same community and can't afford to up and run fully like white men do.

  • I FUCKING HATE NIGGERS

  • Football,basketball,tennis,100 meters olympic,boxing..... and now politics with Barack!!

    If you can't beat hem, join hem.O.K ?

    Oh you can't stand President Obama?

    Dig a hole and go hide in there till 2016!!

    You can kill yourself too.Looser!

    Go whining to your mama not on youtube faggot pussy!!

  • Go on out of that ya nigger

  • Looky here, we's be needing another million man march. First one ain't worked its magic yet... Yowzer...!

  • So whats obamas solution....? Sounded to me like he said give them more welfare... I say use the money for bigger prisons...

  • truth hurts no one is judging anybody but if the shoe fits

  • why do so man black man walk out on their children,50 per cent of black kids have fathers who aint around...,Ireland was a dirt poor country in the 60s and 70s,yet no fathers walked out on their families..

  • lack of sense of responsability and loyalty.

  • is not black people is Black Americans. Im African and we dont see this because its shameful plus the family will never forgive the man. In the 60s more black american family stayed together. These days the culture thinks its soo cool to go to jail so many kids are growing up without fathers.

  • these people that walk out on their kids are what's wrong with the world and give black people a bad name...

  • It's like this and this goes for the men and women. If you are going to have sex with someone who is not your wife or girlfriend, use protection so an unwanted pregnancy can't happen. Just use protection so no unwanted babies won't be born in the world. Sometimes women think that a new baby will make the man be a father. A man will only be a father if he wants to be. Nothing can make a man father to his child, not even the courts.

  • if a man is not ready to father, they shouldnt plant their seed. just dont have sex. why would you have sex wiv some1 who is not your wife, even if she is your girlfiend. black guys need to mature, very few do

  • Well all black men do not just drop babies all over the place. They have white, latino and other races of men that will do the same thing I know because I work in social services. There is a very large percentage of white single mothers. I agree with all some of what you say. Don't have sex, if you do have sex, use protection no matter how much you don't want to. Either don't have sex or if you do, use protection.

  • i don't have the time nor the will to dispute all the garbage you're spewing, but you don't get the point. For every 9 out of 10 blacks without a father, at least 8 of the blacks will be in & out of prison system. I sure somehow is this is the whitemans fault, but at some point, the black man has got to clean up its own shit. Old saying (white people saying) "You can lead a horse to water, but you cant make it drink... Very profound....

  • HUH?

  • White men didn't lead us to water. They led us to slavery and raped our women even after we were free. There's anothe old saying. " The indians shook hands with the white man and look who got f**d."

  • If you'd had paid attention in school, assuming you even attended one, you know the blacks were already enslaved by their own kind. When white man showed up on the scene, your own brothers sold your stupid ass... As for the indians, they had some pride and chose death over slavery. I only wish the blacks back in the day would have had some pride too...

  • You are hereby disregarded. Not a part of the solution for my people therefore your comments are void and you do not exist in terms of my mission. The Panthers didn't need to talk to you and nor do I. Done with you. I comment only to talk to my people.

  • Preach!

  • He hit it right on the head when he said every dime of child support should go to the child instead of the bureaucrats.

  • You are not a man just because you can make a baby. Males who fail to support and parent the children they produced are directly responsible for the rising death rate of Black youth in the Black community. They are not men, but boys. Boys make babies and walk off; men stick around during adversity, and demonstrate their conviction to raise responsible men and women. Producing children does not make you a man or a women, parenting children and being responsible parents does.

  • He kept it real all of those other so called black leaders never touched this subject about fatherless homes reason why one jesse jackson was one of those fathers. HE KEPT IT REAL WITH US, WE KEPT IT REAL WITH HIM OUR NEW PRESIDENT.

  • I wonder why so many black men(boys)felt some type of way about his speech. Is it because the truth hurt for a lot of dead beat dads. and to know Our first black president acknoweldge this fact where though none of our 43 pres ever spoke on it at all.

  • I am so horny right now!!! E

  • Nice Video!

    I did one too about this whole debacle. I will send it to you. Tell me what you think.

    -TonyaTko

  • LMAO

  • And as I pointed out earlier, all this arbitrary government intrusion for the sake of pork is what destroyed marriage and family legally. I have no doubt about that and have written about it several times.

  • And if you're a reasonably good analyst, all you have to do is look at the facts and review the details of these bills. McCormick new to look at the bill and understands the facts. Promotional rhetoric is misleading to say the least, but is so much so that it's flat out lying.

  • dread: "Responsible Fatherhood *Bill*" aims to bypass government, to reduce taxation, offers job training, etc.

    response: That's what Reagan and Clinton said, and all the other proponents then and since. But they all know as well as I do that it increases the role of government, dramatically increases cost, and job training should be in an education bill rather than a welfare bill. It's been a quarter century since Reagan started this and plenty of history to prove it.

  • It's really amazing when you know something about what's going on behind the scenes and how to interpret politico-speak. He's going to put more pork in the barrel and saying very clearly that ordinary people should not expect any benefit from it. In fact - when government makes it harder for them - they can't use it as an excuse. Uh-huh!

  • I read McCormick's article. In fact, I can relate because my brother is in one of these situations with his kid and ex. Obama's "Responsible Fatherhood *Bill*" aims to bypass government, to reduce taxation, offers job training, etc. That's "pork" that ordinary folks won't benefit from? All bills go before Congress for review and hopeful improvement. So, let this one, too! Your cynicism blinds you to the positive aspects of Obama's activism. Accepting a compromise doesn't = a defeat of principle.

  • dread: See the article mentioned below. This is the very same stuff that started with the Reagan administration, that I've been talking about. Obama is not supporting change, he's continuing the war against fathers and family. If you want to go deeper into the subject, there is a lot of reading I can suggest; but once again "Taken into Custody" by Baskerville.

  • For a mild, nice introduction, see "Obama's Responsible Fatherhood Bill--Not Enough Carrot, Too Much Stick"

    By Mike McCormick and Glenn Sacks

  • BHO = LIAR AND MASTER SPEECH GIVER

    GOOGLE:

    TRUMPET- TUCC MAGAZINE

    Black Liberation Theology

    THINK FOR YOURSELF! There can be no mistaking it. What did Barack Obama know and when did he know it? Everything. Always. This speaks directly to Obama's judgment and honesty. Hopefully the GOP and McCain won't let this Wright and the TUCC issue die out of some mistaken sense of "taking the high road".

    re-post please!

  • Reply doesn't seem to work for me. I'll rewrite and repost again.

  • Family policy reform, a.k.a. "welfare reform" is a textbook example of Big Lie Politics; telling a big lie for the sake of building corrupt enterprizes. But we can go on from there. The next, potentially bigger Big Lie in terms of cost and corruption - government plans to control global warming. So, that's two strikes against Barack Obama. It shows he's a "company man" without change we can believe in.

  • You're obviously a well-informed thinker (unlike many in this thread). So, ponder this... How can Obama fix every errant policy or please every special interest? Second, how can he do it even before he's elected? Third, revolution can't be waged from the top down. It requires activism from regular *citizens*. An effective President is a diplomat as well as an executive. COMPROMISE, the currency of democracy, is critical to policy. Meanwhile, inflexibility and intolerance yield only paralysis.

  • It's not as though these are small special interest issues. One hits at the very heart of basic civil rights and the death of the institutions of marriage and family. He's for marriage and family - or? The other strikes directly at the heart of industry, capitalism, and the economy. Both are about corruption. So, what are you suggesting - ignore everything he stands for and vote for him why? So we can be proud to battle against big problems the government is creating for us?

  • Sure, these are big issues. In this speech Obama says that the African-American community will empower itself by raising the bar for its fathers. You charge that this introspection is shameful. Others simply resent that he's airing black folks' dirty laundry in public. I, however, believe that the man is progressive when he makes sensitive socioeconomic issues part of his agenda. Vote for whomever you deem most fit to lead. But, don't blame a leader for policies he had no part in creating.

  • Also, like I said before... Obama specifically acknowledged that government policies have attacked the institution of family. Obviously, he seeks at least some of the legal reforms that you've stressed. So, I just don't understand why you're looking at *this* guy and *this* speech as evidence that he supports the status quo.

  • I'm responding to Obama, who fails to deal with the war against fathers. The current system has nothing to do with "responsible choices" - that's well established code for doing what's ordered; and that's controlled by the collection industry, that takes 10s of billions in payment each year. It's the most corrupt system in the US. Any politician that accepts / promotes it must be corrupt.

  • dread: I think you're trying too hard to play the devil's advocate. Seemed like we were on the same page before. Obama says the past should not be used as an excuse. I agree. As for the help ourselves question: next step - do what? It's not really a one or the other thing - help ourselves or get government to do something. If government gets in the way, one way to help is to tell them to get out of the way. Democracy, honest discussion and all that - remember?

  • I'm arguing my very own agenda here, Roger. Obama states the following: "We should be making it easier for fathers who make responsible choices and harder for those who avoid them. We should get rid of the financial penalties we impose on married couples right now and start making sure that every dime of child support goes to helping childern and not bureaucrats". Obama quotes statistics and puts your *specific* concerns within the context of those stats. How's this shameful at all, my man?

  • I'm responding to Obama, who fails to deal with the war against fathers.

It's the most corrupt system in the US. Any politician that accepts / promotes it must be corrupt.

  • The elimination of civil rights related to marriage and family led to the creation of a fathers' rights movement. Collective action is needed because individual rights no longer exist (difference between civil law and social policy resulting from the legal transformation of marriage and family). The critisisms presented over the years are still unanswered by Obama. That is denial by omission - no reason to believe that he intends to change things for the better.

  • Let's suppose that ALL you said is 100% true. It'd be evidence that oppression still exists (and I know it does whether I completely accept your specific evidence or not). However, I still ask you the same question: "If we blacks don't help ourselves WHO will?" How about answering/addressing that question? Also, you said "One cannot change the past, so it's wise not to use it as an excuse to fail in the future." You're condemning Obama's message while ascribing past leaders sins to him. Logical?

  • Reagan was also using the "deadbeat dad" argument to play the race card. So was Clinton. The program has included a number of annual round-ups involving multiple police agencies, to arrest thousands of fathers in a single day, and to jail them indefinitely and without trial. A number of other steps, including revocation of drivers' licenses create even more difficulties for men who are just trying to act responsibly; which is entirely different than doing what they are ordered to do.

  • dread: Obama follows "deadbeat dad" logic created by Reagan and pushed heavily by Clinton. The two parties created a huge pork-barrel program that rewards mothers for abandoning fathers, destoys the lives of fathers and effectively keeps many out of their children's lives. Marriage and family were transformed from established civil institutions to components of the welfare program, eliminating civil rights. Look at customer comments on Amazon related to "Taken into Custody" by Baskerville.

  • dread: One cannot change the past, so it is wise not to use it as an excuse to fail in the future. Election politics is about now and what result we can achieve if we vote one way or the other. Obama is denying the oppression that exists today and I must infer from that, that he intends - if elected - to continue the oppression. There is no right answer offered by either of the two major parties. The best I can suggest is to stand up and force them into honest discussion of the subject.

  • Honest and open discussion is critical to true democracy. So, I'm on the same page with you there! I'm a proud independent voter. We might see eye to eye on that level, too.

    But, please explain to me how Obama's calling on fathers to do better is part of the very oppression that his statements seek to resolve. Also, hasn't Obama spoken openly about race (and the social injusticies that surround it) in our culture? If we blacks don't help ourselves WHO will? The Man ain't gonna do it for us.

  • For a half century, the role of the federal government in forcing fathers from homes and keeping them from participating in their children's lives has been documented and discussed. The past quarter century has seen that problem expand, leading to the legal destruction of marriage and family. Obama is pushing the same tired old Reagan / Clinton line that the problem is fathers who "abandon" their responsibilities. Shame on him!

  • Roger, that the United States has a paradoxical history of oppression as well as liberty is obvious. The question is... who are African-Americans to look to for help? -those who enforce or deny oppression to begin with??? Our history clearly speaks for itself and we must NEVER forget it. But, I ask you, where's the shame in Obama calling on the black community to help ITSELF? We must rise up on our own feet and get the job done *without* "The Man's" help. For us. By us. Power to the people.

  • This man is a liar. He supported a "hate whitey",racist preacher, for 20 years.

    I stand against racism, and that liar, Obama, he is the worst thing that could happen to America.

    No wonder Farrahkan supports him so much.

  • Rev. Wright is bombastic and sometimes ridiculous with his rhetorical implications. Yet, I challenge you to deliver real evidence that he "hates whitey" or that he's a racist. Second, perhaps... just perhaps YouTube and blog soundbites don't fully represent Rev. Wright's actual agenda? Third, what evidence do you offer that Farrakhan "supports" Obama strongly? I say you have NONE. Obama has "rejected and denounced" the man publically. Liar? Explain. Your accusations are smears lacking substance.

  • TO pauli9363

    U make fun of my grammar, just to avoid the question. And ur answer is so dumb, Bush did lower taxes but I AM TALKING ABOUT TAX CUTS not lowered taxes, TAX CUTS are when u put a limit on the amount a person can be taxes (even if it is not fair) becuz those TAX CUTS are going to the rich who aren't paying an equal share

  • Sexfanatic, the rich pay a higher % of their earnings in taxes than those that are less affluent. Their tax burden is *proportionately* greater -even under Bush's plan. However, they've also got far more escape routes via "creative" accounting, write offs, etc. Cutting/changing taxation involves reducing the % paid or adjustment of what's taxed or not.

    Anyway, the goal is to drive consumption in the economy. Cuts in rich people's taxes don't help nearly as much as those for the working poor.

  • TO dreadscotty

    Oh i see, thanks

    But if u are making over 3 mill, then i think u can live with higher taxes lol

    One of the things about being a Patriot is giveing back when ur country needs u, even when its only taxes :P

  • Pauli9363, GWB cut taxation and also radically INCREASED spending. A weak dollar and recession are the result. (That's not the fiscal conservatism that Republicans are supposed to support.) The bottom line is that the richest Americans don't need and won't respond to tax breaks with increased consumption (to stimulate the economy). Meanwhile, Obama wants to reset the tax burden on those making over $200k a year back to where they were during the Clinton era. (The economy was booming back then!)

  • TO pauli9363

    sorry i can't find ur comment so i am replying to this 1

    The middle class needs tax cuts more than the rich. All that "well the rich deserve to keep their money from taxes" is bullshit. I just want them to pay the SAME % of taxes as any1 else, no tax cuts 4 the wealthy

    And the ppl who r supporting Obama aren't lazy ppl looking 4 a hand out,tell that to the father of 2 who just got fired from his job that was shipped over seas,now that is the kinda person who really needs tax cuts

  • Whether you like it or not America is a Capitalist country and therefore those who create jobs and wealth in America will indead get the most breaks. I believe it's really not fair that they would have to pay as much when they are not getting as much benefit out of the tax money as those in the lower tax brackets. Here in America life is a choice, so create a business incorperate create jobs and then boldly refuse your tax cuts.

  • its been a month since i commented on this vid so if u reply to me remind me what i said becuz i don't care enough to look it up

  • Did I hear him say, "more than half of all Black children live in a single parent household"? Is this why he supports using tax dollars to kill them off in the womb before they become a greater tax burden? Why is it "the father's responsibility" when he believes it's the woman's choice? "There is a responsibility at conception". How is that if in the womb they have no human rights and can be killed on demand? Democratic Equation: women + welfare + men assuming abortion = single parent homes

  • Tell him to take that up with child support and the female they take the kids and the system help them keep them away this guy knows nothing just another hypocric for president this country strives on beating down the people of this nation if he had to work two jobs to make ends meet he would have a different view on life... this country is a joke don't get me wrong you do have some who does not take care of there responsiblities but most men take care of there kids

  • Not true. You obviously know nothing about the obamas and how hard they had to work to get to where they are. Obama was reared by a single mother. You obviously didn't listen to the whole speech. Some fathers think just because they pay child support of stay in the home they are taking care of your children when you are in fact only taking care of one need. he incourages to do more and that's all. It was a father's day speech get a clue.

  • Obama you had my vote up until you decided to take the occasion of FATHERS DAY AND USE IT TO BASH BM ALL OVER AMERICA. The NERVE. Obama refuses to look at the amount of control that mothers actually have over a fathers interaction w/ their children because the courts enable the hell out of women. Women suffer NO PENALTY for depriving the children visitation w/ their fathers though men can be jailed for missing support payments. Black women kick fathers out of their lives but only BM get blame.

  • Oh yeah a woman being perfectly happy with a man decides I'll just kick you out for no reason. and then the court says yeah we agree for no reason you get no visitation, pay child support, or go to jail. And poor guy just victim..yeah get real. any man can fight for visitation unless he is PROVEN harmfull.

  • The point IS that women wanted the ability to leave marriages easily. Men still suffer the same penalties. If the same financial support (not incl. CS) to women is available post-divorce and sole child custody (95%) is given

    to women outright, exactly what benefit is it for women to remain married?. Many Fathers were disenfranchised via mothers and the courts. Why are the courts giving women the children regardless of age fancydfox?

  • I don't know where you have been...obviously burned and blaming everyone but yourself. I have witnessed men get full custody...i have witnessed a couple get divorced and the woman have to pay spousal support. It's not a man vs. woman thing it's economics. The parent that is found to be fit gets the kids. If you feel the system is flawed do something about it.

  • Then why is the fit parent usually decided to be the woman, No explanation necessary, Its clear BIAS. Nothing less. Just because you've witnessed men get full custody doesnt mean that the majority dont, nor joint custody. Woman like you use faulty arguments to avoid the obvious. The argument is the AMOUNT of men who do win, Not that a MINORITY DO. By the way WOAMN are the biggest deadbeats because they default FAR MORE than fathers. Diseminating info to men re: Family Court Bias IS DOING SOMTHG!

  • women like me? You got it twisted. Show me these stats. Obama says: "we should make it easier for the fathers that are doing right and harder for those who are not." 1:22. Why you are making this a page about courts being biased to father's is beyond me. Like I said once before, obviously burned and blaming it on everyone else but yourself. BTW a court decision isn't final, so challenge it. Stop whining here a make noise where it will count.

  • a court decision isn't final, so challenge it. ?

    What planet do you live on?

    I am witnessing first hand just how bias the courts are I have challenged it With her record, crediible witnesses, undeniable pictures of ABUSE to the child, Her own testamony she lies even in court to get what she wants ,and she was still given custody!

    I have no record, have a stable home and every other weekend visits now oposed to being the main caregiver of my child like I was during the relationship.

  • (The rest of my reply)

    So don't tell me that the courts are NOT BIAS because they very much are.

    The Court has helped her keep me from the everyday relationship my son and I had been acustom to..... to a mear 4 times a month.

  • I can agree with you to a point. I feel good and responsible BM get it harder than "deadbeat fathers". I support and admire BM that are in their childrens lives, but that is not always the case. Not all BW (mothers) kick fathers out of their kids lives, but yes there are some. As like anything negative always override positive.

  • I can't wait for the two Muslim women barred from sitting behind the podium because they were wearing headscraves, I can't wait for them to sue Obama's campaign. Obama's Muslim past will truly haunt him when they sue for millions. Both Obama supporters said they felt betrayed by their treatment at the rally. The Nation of Islam ladies lost out on these millions or have they? Obama's campaign money is more than enough for everyone. politico com/news/stories/0608/11168.ht­ml

  • Sadie, you're so consumed with HATE that you're blind to reality. That same article mentions the following about a John McCain rally:

    "On the Republican side, a Hispanic New Hampshire Democrat, Roberto Fuentes, told Politico that he was recently asked, and declined, to contribute to the 'diversity' of the crowd behind Sen. John McCain at a Nashua event."

    You're black, right? Apparently YOU can't sit behind McCain's podium. Why don't YOU sue McCain??? Be consistent rather than totally nuts!

  • sadieaugust,

    In YOUR "real world," black people may call themselves "niggers," but not in mine or people I associate with. You name does not get you off the hook. Regardless of whether it is an asian, european, african, oriental or any other name, a person with self-respect does not talk like you. Americans with any intellect and common sense know that a man with a wholesome family, good education, and integrity is not their enemy. Maybe he is an enemy of yours and people who think like you.

  • black liberation theology Marxist black intellectuals goal to aid the destruction of America as he knows it destruction needs both black anger white guilt black theologians goal is to tell story of American oppression white men will tremble go mad because they will be drenched with the filth of their evil Black Theology Liberation Wright wrote There will be no peace in America until whites begin to hate their whiteness asking from the depths of their being How can we become black

  • notice while obama takes a day off from campaigning for his community and family, mccain uses that time to talk shit about obama.

  • And, Obama promises change? Two Muslim women at Barack Obama's rally in Detroit on Monday were barred from sitting behind the podium by campaign volunteers seeking to prevent the women's headscarves from appearing in photographs or on television with the candidate. Both Obama supporters said they felt betrayed by their treatment at the rally. These women are going to sue the Obama campaign big time. politico com/news/stories/0608/11168.ht­ml

  • Sadie, these rallies are *political theatre*. If there were women in hijabs or burkas behind him, idiots would scream "See? barack HUSSEIN obama *is* a Muslim!" It would send the wrong MESSAGE. This is unfortunate but yet so very true. Why do you suppose you saw lots of middle-aged women behind Hillary Clinton's podium along with a token black/brown person or two? Those seen at McCain events tend to be lily white, right? They're speaking to their BASES It's all very carefully crafted from A - Z.

  • seeker4truth, you said, "America, wake up. Your enemy is often hidden from view, has a so-called "white compelxion," but does not share any of your values; uses blacks as a scapegoat."

    Sadieaugust, says, "Girrrrrrrrrrl...You couldn't have described Obama better than you have." Thanks for warning the American people!

  • Obama is just trashing the Black Men in order to win over the working white men's votes. Thats all this message was about BUT some Black Men are too blind to see this Uncle Tom for what he is. He will use the Black people and then reject them just like he did Oprah and they will deserve just it too, like Oprah deserved it too. Oprah could have helped the Katrina victims before spending millions on that school in Africa. Obama will also dump Michelle for a white woman if he is elected.

  • Sadie, how is speaking TRUTH equivalent to "trashing"? It's a valid point that the A-A community will be empowered as families become tighter and stronger. As for dumping Michelle, the premise is comically ignorant. You imply that black men systematically discard black women as they attain success. Does the man have to become PRESIDENT to be successful? Your attitude is completely irrational. Besides, Obama is half white to begin with. They have an interracial marriage by default. BZZZZZT! Next!

  • Omg I was thier he really did a good jpb with his speech. I was about 2 fall a sleep in church until he came!!!! lol

  • The major reason why Obama cannot win the presidency in America to day is his skin tone. All the rest are lies and justifications. The highest office in America is only for "white" people and those among the so-called chosen elite.

    No Obama!

  • If Obama speaks about Young American's pulling up their pants and tightening their bootstraps, it will have a greater impact than his recent speech on deadbeat daddy's. Let's get to the root of the problem, before young men abandon their responsibilities!

  • Bush even has more guts than the Pope. Bush doesn't hide in a bullet proof mobile but I bet Obama will. Bush doesn't hide behind anything, he'll stand there and tell the Terrorists just how he feels. He makes me proud to be a Republican. I salute Bush's bravery! Bush a president with guts to stand up to the enemy. "Bin Laden you are a coward, you hide...Bush doesn't." If only the American people could see what a brave and tough President we have in Bush.

  • and President Bush is stupid...he proves that everytime he opens his mouth. Special people can not fear!

  • Terrorists hate President Bush because The United States has a tough strong leader who has attacked radical Islamic Terrorists for almost 8 years and has never hid behind a hood, rags, videos, the Internet or audio tapes...like Al-Qaeda's leader Osama Bin Laden and his followers have. In other words, President Bush isn't a coward; he won't sneak attack like a coward and then run and hide. Awesome Bush!!!! Go get them Bush!!!

  • I guess since u aren't black u didn't know, but Obama said this kinda of speech around2005, idiot

  • well you better get used to it because the way things look he is one step from the white house.

  • I see Obama can only attend churchs that have black only. He move from one racist chruch to another.

    This preacher will set him stright.

  • I heard grandmothers were a critical part of the family. But apparently they fit nicely under a bus.

    I also heard picking a church who holds the same values as oneself was also another important aspect of ones family but, lets talk about dead beat black fathers just like Bill Cosby.

    Maybe if we picked a good pastor and a good congregation that black man would actually be helping his family instead of blaming whitey.

  • all black men have white mommy's

  • Obama's Father's Day message alienated the Black men. If you look closely, the man with blonde hair has horns; it is the devil watching over Obama. Muslims consider the number 666 as the holiest number. They consider Quran as the 666. Search Quran 666. Barack Hussein Obama lives in Chicago, IL which has the zip code 60606.

  • Black men are very offended by Obama's righteous attitude saying, "They're acting like boys instead of men." Obama can't even imagine how many Black men he has alienated by what he said. Black men are now angrily commenting on what type of father Obama would have made if he had not had a white grandmother who was a vice-president of a bank and who helped raise him, any man can be like Obama if they are handed everything to them. Obama was being pampered,while most Black men struggled to live.

  • SADIEAUGUST, Barack called any black man a "boy" for abandoning his own offspring thus calling his own father a "boy"

  • Barack called black men who abandon their own children "boys" thus calling his own father a "boy"

  • Actually Pig I was talking about the 60 +lobbyist raising money for McSame right now. And who do you think he'll beholden to if he ever got elected..you the little people who give little or nothing to his campaign or the ones who will be responsible for putting him in office? Before Rick Davis began serving as John McCain's campaign manager, his lobbying firm was working for a client with ties to Iran. Mr. Davis is still working as McSame's C.M. so who's working for your best interest, PL ?

  • This guy is such a joke. Hamas is waiting for him to get elected. I wonder why?

  • The speech was okay I just did not like the location. This is a conservative, anti gay and outlaw abortion types. He behaves so paternalisticaly toward young african american men. While he is right that men should step up to the plate when having babies it does not speek to the women that are laying with these men knowing full well that the men won't be around. I think Bambi was speaking to the black middle class not to the black joe in South Chicago who has been emsasculataed by society.

  • That's kind of messed up. Father's Day is a day to celebrate fathers, not diss fathers. Why did he choose this day to talk about the problems of SOME Black men? Why not talk about derelict White men or Hispanic men or Asian men as well? White men get ties and steaks for Father's Day and Black men get a lecture on what bad fathers they are? WTF?

    It seems the Black community is a popular punching bag. White people eat this stuff up. But when people point out White problems they get all offended.

  • I agree. I think black men especially the poor get treated as punching bags. Thats a good point Bambi should have been celebrating there strengths on fathers day not the negativity. I did not hear anything by Bambi on mothers day chastising black women for having baby's out of wedlock. I wonder if the Black middle class actually looks upon disdain to the poor black folk who did not make it. It happens in all communitties the middle class always look down upon the lower and working class.

  • sweet!! u da bomb

  • Ireland loves you Obama!!!

  • I doubt if he ever rose in Chicago Church, when he needed black votes to hold office in the state legislature, and said anything like that.

    He knows at this point that there is verly little he could do or say which would alienate black voters in the presidential election, so now it is very safe for him to say such things. And he does. It makes white voters feel better about him

    JFK wrote a book called Profiles in Courage. Obama would never have been in it.

  • He gave almost the exact same speech on fathers day 2005

  • u basically what u are saying is he insulted blacks to make racist white people feel happy?

    That is what u r getting at isn't it?

    Well i hate to break it to u but he said a similar speech like this a while ago, most black ppl already heard him give a similar speech, i guess u weren't in the know huh?

  • ALERT USA!

    The REAL Obama - and his REAL agenda. for yourself and your country PLEASE!

    SEARCH:

    The CHANGE MAKER - Friends of Barack Obama Puppet, Elites

    Then read carefully (More info)

    Obamas select keywords and seed them into every speech. (: Change - Business as Usual - Cynical - Spirit - and Isolation. These are not just careless repetition, within his speeches, they are calculated messages.......

  • hey Obama, the unequal criminal justice system and the iraq war are taking fathers from families, so why are you chastising the black community

  • The black community needs some "chastising" some times. Of course, every group of people stands to improve in one area or another. There's nothing wrong with Obama taking a stand about this. We black folks need to improve where we fall short and celebrate where we already excel. It's obvious that the deck was stacked against us in so many ways. Still, we have to OVERCOME -largely on our own. We've done it in the past. We must continue the struggle.

  • dread, why cant John McCain say the same things about the black community ? Oh I know why,,,,

  • Sure, John McCain would be taken to task for such criticism because he's white. It'd equivalent to me (a black guy) addressing Native American constituents and telling them that their community would be better off if many didn't drink so much. Or, it's like you saying "wow, my sister is such a b*tch" and then the stranger next to you saying "YES, she is". The point is that some advice is easier better received from a percieved insider. It lacks the emotional baggage associated with an outsider.

  • Obama called any black male a "boy" for abandoning his own child, thus calling his own father a "boy"

  • He is telling the truth, a man does not run away or abandon his children.

  • Single Mother's Network is a non profit organization. We do not take political stances or support political candidates; however, we do approve of the message Senator Obama is sharing with this church. Fathers of all nationalities are important to their families, we are appreciative that the senator has created awareness for African American dads.

  • BO is just going to be attacked for his honesty. Attacked by other blacks.

  • if obama does become president,& something actually changes,then i'll apologize.but they have been preaching the same thing for years,and nothing has improved.

  • I saw him reading from a typed speech. And I've heard McCain call himself a liberal w/o a telepromter and he said just last week he was going to veto beer while READING from a telepromter. So McSame can't read probably because he has dementia and he's computer illerate by his own admission. Bush doesn't like to read and mcflipflop doesn't like computers..is tat why he has so many lobbyist in his campaign because they tell him what to say,think, feel? This is the best the GOP has to offer us?

  • LOL.lobbyists. You mean like Jim Johnson who was a CEO for Fannie Mae and is to blame in part for so many people losing their homes. BO is just another McGovern or Carter. Tax & Spend, Tax & Spend.

    NOBAMA '08

  • oh please, u would save almost twice as much taxes with Obama then u would McCain

    watch?v=9fbxpMw4mco&featur­e=user

  • Uh...yeah because we all know that Obama wants to lower taxes. NOT. Dumbass obama is going to raise taxes during a bad economy (which you can thank the dems for since it went down hill since they took over congress). Just look at Michigan. That state was in an actual recession(2 quarters of loss. The Democrat gov raised taxes on everyone saying that the revenue would be large and help. Now look at'em.

  • He is gonna raise taxes on the rich to help gain back the funds America needs to get out of its debt, it's not very orginal, it has been done for ages

    And why do u care if Obama raises taxes on the rich, are u even rich?

    Obama would save u more money then McCain, its just that simple

  • Sadieaugust...your post is one of the most idiotic that I've every seen on Youtube. The only black men that Obama offened are the deadbeats that he spoke of. I doubt that he lost any votes because statistically they probably werent going to vote anyway. Responsible black fathers such as myself look at this speech as validation that we are doing the right thing. We dont look at the past of others as a reason to be an dead beat absent father. Your post is crap!

  • I heard one of the Cable News Stations has a video showing Obama at the Trinity Church while Rev. Wright is preaching his hate. They are waiting for the right time to put it out. This will be the end of Obama if this comes out. They must be waiting for the big race

    this stuff about sex and drugs between Obama and a guy named Larry Sinclair /There will be a Nat Press Conf. June 18th in DC all about it

  • I am so proud of Obama for not being afraid to speak up,If you are a true black man you would appreciate the positive information he is giving.Thats whats wrong with the world now,nobody wants to talk about the real things that goes on in America.Thank you Sir for Speaking the truth.

  • Black men are very offended by Obama's righteous attitude saying, "They're acting like boys instead of men." Obama can't even imagine how many Black men he has alienated by what he said.

    ARE U EVEN BLACK?

    First of all his mom wasn't a V.P of a bank u fraud and ur whole comment is bull

  • First of all, I didn't say his mother was a V.P. of a bank I said his GRANDMOTHER was. Now, for all my life I've been a Black Patriotic American woman, not a Muslim Nigger like Obama. This Black True American hand is voting for an Honorably Decorated War Hero who loves this country and who will be like Bush...McCain will have the Terrorists on the run. Follow Sadie and vote for McCain 2008!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is a lie!!! it was written by a racist trying to present him or her self as a black woman. How do I know? No self-respecting black woman would call Obama a "muslim nigger." I find it interesting that this blog was not caught by the youtube staff. Another hint? - the name "Sadie" Some folks will go to any length to dehumanize Obama. America, wake up. Your enemy is often hidden from view, has a so-called "white compelxion," but does not share any of your values; uses blacks as a scapegoat.

  • Girl, get real, in the hood we all call each other niggers...any black hood raised person knows that. Besides Sadie is Hebrew in origin and a many blacks are Hebrew but the white men still wants to paint Jesus and his people as white. Jesus was as black as Sadie is. Sadie means Princess and is Hebrew in origin - need I say any more?! A Hebrew is a member or descendant of a Semitic people claiming descent from Abraham,Isaac, and Jacob; an Israelite; a Jew. Besides,I'm not the only Black Sadie.

  • to sadieaugust

    ". Now, for all my life I've been a Black Patriotic American woman, not a Muslim Nigger like Obama. "

    What kinda of black woman would call Obama a THE N WORD, u fraud, i doubt u are black

  • "Obama lies all the time and will say anything people want to hear."

    lol,don't all politicians?

  • so you're admitting that Obama is a typical politician ?! ...

  • i believe that all politicians are crooks.

  • Benjamin Franklin was no crook sir - he was actually quite brilliant.

  • he was.maybe i'm a bit cynical,but i have no faith in politicians...

  • Apparently this issue also extends to the African-African community, in Africa, as well. Obama's father, an African national, was a deadbeat drunk of man who killed himself while driving drunk. This after he'd already lost both his legs in a previous drunk-driving crash.

    This is why Obama continues to show poor judgement in seeking out a surrogate father for himself: Father Pfleger, Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakhan, William Ayers, Ted Kennedy, ect.

  • where do u get this shit? If u want to insult Obama based on his policies,FINE BY ME, but don't start making shit up, u fraud

  • Did I forget to mention that Obama's Muslim father was also a polygamist?

  • if family is so important then why is he pro gay rights and pro gay marriage?

  • Nice speech. Too bad the liberal white media won't echo this message. No, black men need to be forgiven and they need to be excused. Because life for blacks is so tough, the media feels that black men really don't have to be responsible for a fucking thing. Nice going, you worthless absentee black fathers, and really nice going to the lib white (with white guilt...fucking losers) media for looking the other way on one of the biggest causes of them all......it's called THE FAMILY.

  • black liberation theology Marxist black intellectuals goal to aid the destruction of America as he knows it destruction needs both black anger white guilt black theologians goal is to tell story of American oppression white men will tremble go mad because they will be drenched with the filth of their evil Black Theology Liberation Wright wrote There will be no peace in America until whites begin to hate their whiteness asking from the depths of their being How can we become black

  • You spent a lot of time and thought on this posting. I'm amazed. All that to say pretty much....nothing. Nothing relevant anyways. Stop spewing your hot air, you're burning a hole in the ozone!

  • Obama lies all the time and will say anything people want to hear. His lame tax "cut" would be just like Bill Clinton's... a huge HIKE! Remember that Clinton raised taxes to the highest level in history after promising a tax CUT! That dirty bastard ruined the economic boom that Reagan built, and he should be hanged for it in public! Now Obama wants to do the same damn thing. Clinton build up the internet bubble. Obama want to build the "global warming" bubble. Dems are just bubbles that go pop!

  • You must have ridden the short yellow bus to school. Last time I checked the CURRENT administration has and continues to put this country into debt, the dollar sucks, we're in a fake ass war, jobs are disappearing, real estate industry is crumbling and record breaking gas prices. When Clinton was president, everyone was making good money and there were plenty of jobs and the government debt was in the black. You must work for Exxon!

  • I don't care what anybody says.

    Obama is a good man.

    And we need to fight like hell to get him elected.

  • The KKK (a group that is so small, it doesn't exist)... but the KKK could encircle every black neighborhood, chant continuous racist remarks... and yet still be unable to do the damage that blacks are doing to themselves.

    Brothers killing each other faster than soldiers die in Iraq!

    More die in just three years than ALL the lynchings in the past 150 years!

    Imus is not the problem. That, my friends, is a sick distraction from the REAL issues.

  • There is no special program that anyone can do to "lift" a people. They have been tried.

    Change comes from within.

    The black community needs to be intolerant of blame-games among their own.

    We are here now. Bad things have happened to all groups in the past.

    Continuing with the Trinity Church race-fetish thing is going to keep a people down.

    Obama is on the right track. It's time to face the problem down.

    Hint: that problem has nothing to do with whitey, the KKK, Bush, etc.

  • If I see someone use the term "blame game",

    I know - FOR SURE -that person is completely stupid. It's a BIG CLUE of stupidity.

    Just like if someone says "environmentalist wackos"....they repeat what they hear on the radio....STOOPID.

  • Hip hop merely maintains and stokes a very bad aspect of behavior.

    The KKK could NOT do a better job of reinforcing every possible nasty stereotype about blacks.

    Those videos do a double disservice:

    1. Make sure that every stereotype about black folks is reinforced in living color!

    2. Teach youngsters that thuggy, rude behavior is the way to be. This is what I call "unemployable behaviors"... no one wants that kind of person on the job site.

    Combine hip hop with bad parenting: perfect storm!

  • Black fathers get up and leave. Barack Obama promises more irresponsibility. He is going to take care of all medical expenses. He is going to tax the rich and give to the poor like a modern day Robin Hood. He ask no one to do anything for their country. He promises their country will do everything for them. Hey, that is not a republic, that is Marxism.

    Just who are we electing here, another Lenin, Stalin, Castro, Chavez or Robert Mugabe. Be afraid people, very afraid. Jake Sunrider

  • Ha, ha, ha! So incredibly ignorant.
