010212: Santorum in Iowa on Black People "Earning" Money

[TheAeroangel86]

By what stretch of the imagination do you hear racism? I recommend Uncle Sam's Plantation by Star Parker. Here is a single black teen mother who describes her journey and personal experience where she couldn't get OUT of these entitlement programs. We need to help people, but these current systems, unreformed, are not the way. It will take a change of heart in the American people for us to eliminate poverty. The government will never do it. They've been trying for years.

[RevSinkiller]

@TheAeroangel86 Really? He was asked about welfare and answered with black people. Entitlements are what rich people have, entitled to better educations, living conditions, food quality, water quality, health care, etc. Welfare on the other hand has improved the life of all Americans so that our poor is better off than the poor of other nations. The strength of America can only be judged by our most vulnerable as a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. One link fails and it all fails.

[can06]

@murrayben1981, even reality is considered crazy to one that doesn't accept the truth it presents..

[can06]

@murrayben1981, even reality is considered crazy to one that doesn't accept the truth.

[can06]

@murrayben1981, that being said, ppl should face the consequences like a grown up not a child. You speak hatred, you receive hatred.

[RevSinkiller]

Why didn't he mention that whah people outnumber blah people on welfare by at least 3 to 1, probably more like 10 to 1, but who's counting. I guess Mr. Ass Juice has to play the race card to keep the whah voter dependent on him.

[mizzday100]

@RevSinkiller if it;s "wha' people and "blah" people, what do you call Hispanics? Just curious.....

[RevSinkiller]

@mizzday100 black folk are blahs, white people are whas, latinos are lalahs, and hispanics are hahahs. Either way it's no laughing matter that peckerwoods are as racist in 2012 as they were in the 1950's.

[can06]

@RevSinkiller, good point. 

[DawnOfTheDead991]

Damned blah people

[BlowjobLessons]

Yeah, I hate BLAH people too. They're all a bunch of NAGGERS!

[johnmburt1960]

@BlowjobLessons WIN.

[can06]

@BlowjobLessons, and the black taxpayers has to pay for whites like you on welfare.  Blk ppl only make up 23% of welfare recipents. Many ppl hate you too. This is why we will always have a need to kill and create new weapons. LOL, online racist are big cowards. Too scared to say this to a black guy's face.

[BlowjobLessons]

@can06 Dude. You are truly, truly stupid.

Like... stupid beyond belief.

How do you breathe?

You thought I was white?

And you thought I was racist?

LOL!

[iluv2viddyfilms]

Santorum 2012...

[LadyeCatte]

He's just playing the game. Their numbers "rise" each time they attack some nonwhite/nonchristian/nonmale group? Seriously: The next time one of the a**holes utters "Black", "illegal aliens", "abortion/jail" and such with any negative overtones, pay attention to their numbers in the next 48 hrs. The reports will be "He's had a surprising jump in the polls!"

Conservative: "Mrs. Griffin, what do you thing we should do about breastfeeding?"

Lois: "9/11!"

Conservative: "She's got MY vote!"

[russelltennis15]

I'm black . I don't see how that's racist at all

[fadedyouthtube]

@russelltennis15 that's because you're a complete idiot.

[russelltennis15]

@fadedyouthtube that sounds pretty racist to me. u assume im an idiot cause im black?

[cocosolo03]

@russelltennis15 Let me help you ! Are you kidding me ! from when Rick Santorun cares about Black people. Yes is it racist and insulting.. How old are you ! I suggest you get educated...The Republican Party cares about the Rich ... Hello !!!!

[russelltennis15]

@cocosolo03 im sorry the american public school system sucks . its not my fault.

and no you are very naive if you believe that

[cocosolo03]

@russelltennis15 The educational system in America is not functional, I agree to that, however parents should turn of the TV and put away the Video Games. I am not naive ! we can blame everything on Government, however the individuals in Government have conspired to our public schools below average. racism has alot to do with that !

[can06]

@cocosolo03, the american education system is full of bias and tainted with lies. Especially the history component. Why can't black history be completely integrated into american history? You would not need a black history month. LOL, ppl sure portray government ppl to be evil supervillians. Yeah, most of them are corrupt but they are regular ppl like you and me. Ppl who complain about government should complain about themselves as they ALLOW these ppl to control and rule over them.

[superpiff420]

@WhiteWeasel420 just wondering but are you saying that whites can only survive in a country where the population is majority white and if so why do you feel that way

[DBrownofdc]

i think the most damning part of this is his suggesting that the best way to help black people provide for themselves and their families is through, "manufacturing jobs" -- why not better schools, more college grants and lower tuition? f*ck a manufacturing job; its not 1948.

[chelledc]

@DBrownofdc Right! Just ask Detroit. Manufacturing is definitely not a good industry to try and make a new class of worker if you want to create long term sustainable employment.

[itsbanged]

This guy is a dangerous person in any office. Hell keep him out of the post office.

[wesharal1]

ANY COMPANY THAT ENDORSES RICK SANTORUM SHOULD BE BOYCOTTED.

[wesharal1]

Rick has the audicity to mention BLACK PEOPLE and money, he should stay away from that subject. After his fore-fathers have pass wealth on over to him as a result of RAPING Africa and the exploration the minorities in America, he is audacious.

[AmaniArk]

Ya let's take all of black people's money and give it to the banks and the two wars that dragged this country down in the first place. Why must people use minority groups as a scapegoat to shield the real problems? Why are you talking to an Iowa audience whose state is almost 90% white? And the ppl in the room heard "Black" the lady in the back screamed out "RIGHT" as well as the audience clapping it up .his sentence obviously was clear and made sense so why is Santorum not admitting he said it.

[badboisuga]

Damn! What an asshole. I mean, even if you lean more toward a conservative ideology, there's NO defending this shit!!! fyi there a lot of racist blacks too but that's not the point here, prejudice of any kind of fucked up! And lastly Only speaking for my fam, we all work our asses off to support and contribute! I'm sure a lot of you feel the same way about your family and heritage

[mystuff414]

Im black and I dont think that was racist.

[1253bryan]

Wow.....poor dumb bastard

[psycologicalnudity]

he's not gonna play outside the bible belt anyways. the social issues wing of the republican party is dying. personal freedom, and fiscal conservatism are the future. young people dont care whos screwing who. lets get our financial house in order, ron paul 2012!

[elgmalone]

This man is not only racist he is beyond bizarre. His wife gave birth to a still born prematurely after only 23 weeks and they put the dead baby in the car along with their 2 year old child, so their child could hug it, kiss, and sing to it, and drove it across country to the grandparents house so they could hug it, kiss, and sing to it.

[TheGrantParker]

Not a fan of this guy at all but the video seems a little bit off and may even have been doctored up.

[InYourFaceRadio]

You think this is bad, start googling his role in Terri Schiavo. This prick shows up to hospice in a limo pontificating the sanctity of life. Are you surprised the people in Penn tossed his sorry NAZI ass out? He's scum and always has been ... he's gotten this far because the GOP field stinks to high heaven.

[acarlisl]

what was so wrong about that statement?

[VerdosoVersusElites]

@acarlisl How about racism perhaps?

[butters757]

@acarlisl He was singling out black people and stereotyping them as people living on welfare.

[WillOtheWisp84]

If I was there, I woulda slapped the white off that douchebag.

[AliceNchainz011]

@WillOtheWisp84 You're too sensitive

[UMULAStudios]

how did i come from corrupted government videos to this?

[wildwood1233]

I am not even black and I am offended, damn

[psycologicalnudity]

their are black people in iowa?

[SomeRusher]

@psycologicalnudity a few

[HerraIce]

are you freaking kidding me ?! and they say that Ron Paul is Racist !?

[cocosolo03]

@HerraIce Yes Ron Paul is a racist, are you kidding ! He's from Texas.. All Texas Legislators are racist and member of the KKK. When they die Satan will be waiting for them in hell, Rick Santorum should go back to Italy is not American Citizen..

[satchelmcqueenvideo]

BLACK!!!

[WhiteWeasel420]

anyone? Anyone not to Chicken shit to answer my below question?

[dexterinzo]

Wait a second... since when is it a crime for the Federal government to take back the Medicaid dollars a state isn't using? I thought we want to cut down wasteful spending, Mr. Santorum. That aside, keep digging, sir. At the going pace, you'll be to China by November.

[LYNDA9596]

@dexterinzo the state of Iowa will be fined because they are trying to keep more money for the state by not signing up those who are actually eligible for Medicaid. However, Santorum is trying to spin it as if the fed gov't wants them to sign up anyone who applies, just pull them in off the street & allegedly make them "dependent". I'm so sick of him & other GOP'ers treating voters as if they are dumb and unable to see through their despicable tactics.

[dexterinzo]

@LYNDA9596 Oh, that's worse.

[IzaFaqat]

he claims, he said "blah"

[jean84roberto]

aint that racist

[WhiteWeasel420]

Anyone who isn't a Nigger answer my question below

(Only saying the word nigger to provoke a response, otherwise they will be afraid to answer my question ;O )

[msmithstud]

fuck all welfare recipients

[J5MARLON]

Things white people say and mean. "I'm offended, of you being offended, for what I just said that may have been offensive."

[cocosolo03]

@MegaBlueZOMBIE Get a Job ! learn a skill, go back to college and stop blaming Blacks for Americas problems. You are the problems ! Low down White trash like you..

Fuck you and the KKK.. SOB.. ! Sick Bastard..

[WhiteWeasel420]

@cocosolo03 HEY! I'm talking here! Answer me!

[LadyeCatte]

@cocosolo03 That thing wasn't worth replying to, so I didn't. Thanks, though.

[WhiteWeasel420]

I don't support this clown but....here it goes anyway...

In your OPINION he's a racist.

You're ONLY saying that because he's WHITE.

Anti-Racism is just a codeword for Anti-White.

[yashar254]

soooooo does he know that there are more white people on welfare than there are black? hmmm

[WhiteWeasel420]

@yashar254 and if there was an equal number of Blacks and whites?

[dstroyer01]

Look behind him at 00:26. Only black dude in the room has headphones on. Probably didn't hear it.

[HandinHandwithHaiti]

this clip has been edited right at the spot to make it sound even more like he said "black". Go check out a better clip and it's clear he just got flubbed up. This is a total non-controversy. Don't worry, Dems, he's not going to get the nomination anyway. The guy might love earmarks, but he isn't a racist. Give me a break.

[J5MARLON]

@HandinHandwithHaiti its not about him saying "black" we myself and others are mad that whites are the majority in welfare but they sterotype us as freeloarders.Blacks are only 9% of welfare while whites expecially Iowa has the majority of welfare takers 80%. Its not just racist its hypocrisy.

[WhiteWeasel420]

@J5MARLON Do you think a black man in Iowa is more likely to be on welfare or a White man?

Yeah...Let's see you fudge the numbers this time you vicious Anti-White Racist.

[J5MARLON]

@WhiteWeasel420 Being racist I will say whites b/c blacks don't live in Iowa ;) . Besides that here Based on the 2006 TOTAL population of each respective race in the United States, it is:37.8% white* (37.8% of the white population is on welfare) 27.78% black* (27.78% of the black population is on welfare) 11.47% Hispanic (11.47% of the Hispanic population is on welfare) 39% white 11,661,000 of 29,900,000 recipients 38% black 11,362,000 of 29,900,000 17% Hispanic 5,083,000 of 29,900,000

[thenewmike2012]

And down goes Santorum! Even worse than making that comment in Iowa where most of the food stamp/welfare recipients are Whites, is that he doest have the personal integrity and courage to admit to it. He shouldve owned up, been a MAN about it and apologized so he can move on. Becuase he didnt, this will haunt him for as long as he remains in the race. Buh Bye, Santorum.

[Bia7602]

What an ASSHOLE. Typical racist REP. assume that all black ppl are lazy and on welfare. SMGDH. I pray to god the NEVER make it to the damn white house.

[michaellharp69]

Oh NOESSSS!!!! Did Rick Santorum just lose the black vote to Obama? What a crushing loss!!! I mean how can he go on having lost such a huge part of his base both in welfare recipients and African Americans???

[chrismcamp]

Why would he say that!!!!... When blacks only make 2.9% of the population in IOWA...WHITES gets the most gov assistance there period

[WhiteWeasel420]

@chrismcamp uhhhh you people are fucking retarded o_O..

What do you think the welfare percentages would look like if there was even numbers of blacks and whites in Iowa?

EVEN IF you don't think there would be more blacks on welfare then you can't deny how it would affect the numbers LOLOL

God damn get me out of America, must be something in this fluoridated water dumbing down these idiots.

[pcreator]

CAIN SOLUTIONS REVOLUTION!

[NihilistsGuide]

I'm so glad I live in a country where a bigoted, homophobic, racist, fundamentalist nimrod can get this close to being the newest corporate puppet in the white house.

Oh, wait, no--- This is actually sort of depressing.

[hockeybeaver]

edited video? are you kidding me? He said what he said. Anyone who does see what this guy is doesn't want to see.

[kbosworth9]

@trknangel - how would you expect anyone to take that statement? Regardless of it being a clip, in what context could that statement be anything other than racist?

[AwakeKilluminati2012]

FUCK YOU YOU RACIST FUCKING PRICK!!!!!!!!

[felled]

Typical Re-PUBE-ican bullshit...without affirmative action, many whites wouldn't hire blacks.  Now, we get this asshole scaring whites with this crap. FUCK OFF.

[trknangel]

I'm supporting Santorum. How many of you making racist comments on here have actually listened to his speeches televised live instead of chopped up edited versions on youtube. Or would that require too much of your time away from your own racist feel sorry for me crap. That's the problem with youtube. It gives too much opportunity for someone to take a speech and edit it to something that was actually said then you have the idiots just spending hours searching for something that fits their wants

[strout1lathis]

@trknangel

He said what he said. How can Rebublicans just deny the truth? None of these clowns can beat our President in 2012. They're all idiots.

[strout1lathis]

@trknangel Santorum is even denying that he said "black". What an idiot! He can listen to the tape!!!!!! Does he think all America is ignorant? How can he just lie when its now a matter of public record? I heard what he said, and it wasn't clipped or taken out of context. What a jerk.

[MrFrugalFrank]

Luv Your Video I couldn't beleiveThem "Hicks" In Iowa elected him? We here In PA gave him the boot.....As now everone can see why.....I voted for Ron Paul last time around...He got 17% in Pa but a mention of it on any news channel....... go to my channel MrFrugalFrank Check out the Blame Bush Cartoon I Made should make you smile

[011Jesse]

And he's denying that he said black? Damn, just fess up sir your on camera! i mean fuuuucckkk! Give an apology and be happy with the amount of people that hate you now.

[FranklinGarner02]

My last post was actually meant for TheGrandsam1 , sorry Big Mike

[FranklinGarner02]

@bigmike4ya2003 there is a link at foxnews that points to a better clip... He said black people, no doubt about it

[ScreamingHeadAffairs]

@blackjaynut Are you a paid troll for Santorum? There is no way that you can believe what you are saying.

/watch?v=JAtgQZxZSo4

[Blackjaynut]

Rick Santorum is a good man. He's very well in touch with issues Black people face as well as people in general in America. He reminds me a lot of Bill Clinton. Senator Santorum would be a great President. I'm Black and if I said the things he has said concerning Black people I would get respect. Why can't he receive the same respect? This comment is sincere. He's saying that he wants to bring jobs to the Black community. Rick Santorum is the coolest high profile White Republican out there.

[Mr12061960]

@Blackjaynut I must pray for your mind tonight,it's really a sad ,sad,state of the world when a person who so proudly shares with the world that they're Black and hears the statement that Santorum made and voice an opinion like yours! Wow, now take your meds ! "Time To Go Nighty Night" ......"whew..scary"

[bushputz]

@Blackjaynut

Serious question:

How much are you being paid to shill for Mr. Frothy?

[bigmike4ya2003]

I'm black, and I can tell you he didn't say "black people's lives", he said "a lot of people's lives". It just sounds like he said, "black", but you can hear what he really said when you listen closely.

(Just wanted to clarify, because it's harsh to call someone a racist, when they're innocent and don't really deserve it)

[Mr12061960]

@bigmike4ya2003 You Are So Wrong! He did say Black People. What hapend when he realized what was coming out of his mouth he tried to retract it at midway of the word but it was too late. That made it sound like a flub. That statement was so racist, and when your running for the highest position in the country for all people of all races,you do deserve it!! He also reinforced his seperatist idea, with the words "us" our money and "them"! Open your mind Big Mike and accept the truth!

[TheGrandsam1]

@bigmike4ya2003 You are right. I don't like Santorum, but I don't think he said black. And note that the frame where he supposedly says it is Missing. Look closely at the video.

[badboisuga]

@bigmike4ya2003 Sorry man I gave you a thumbs down by accident. I didn't understand your point a first.

[gibafY]

he never said BLACK. listen closely to it

[Ratbeeitch]

Why don't these assholes leave black people out of their bull$#it? If entitlement programs were predominantly used by black people, they would've cut them out a long time ago.

[diddy180]

protazoid if you don't know what's racist about that statement than you're a complete idiot

[protazoid]

Is it racist because he used the term 'black people'? Or is it because he singled out black people as a group of people who in the USA disproportionately experiance poverty and rely on social assistance? Or was it the context in how he just mentioned black people out of the blue?

At the core it doesn't seem racist to me. Whats wrong with wanting black people to be prosperous on their own accord? Don't we want that for everyone? Regardless of colour or gender?

[jimbojim68]

@protazoid Yes, because he singled out black people. In Iowa, the vast majority of people on assistance are white. It's also racist because he is denying now he even said the word "black." He said it just sounds like he said that. So there's your answer. Oops, it slipped out. A common theme now among Republicans is that Democrats want people to be on welfare and have victimized blacks by making them "dependent."

[Mr12061960]

@jimbojim68 I agree!

[protazoid]

What was racist about what he said?

[SuperDrizzle7]

and he's surging on the bigot vote.

[assasin952]

Lol at the black guy in the background

[simps1ma]

Rick Santorum is an idiot, but I think this video is a fake. The few i have seen either stutter around that sound clip, or the lips dont match the words "black people."

[SozeKeiser]

@simps1ma Just google it. Huffington post has clear video up.

[jimbojim68]

@simps1ma Come on, there are dozens of microphones and cameras there recording it. He's scrambling to say it just sounds like he said it. He's not saying it's fake, he's saying he twisted the word when he got tongue tied.

[RonTakeOne]

Who is the racist now, Rick?

Vote for individual liberty (aka the rights of your neighbor no matter the color of his skin). Vote Ron Paul 2012

[Delisle4]

Wow!...anything for a vote.....for a few dollars more..

[thatgreekguy]

Loving the delusional supporters! He said black people, you know he said it, and you ENJOYED the fact that he said it.

If you're going to be a simple-minded racist, at least be sincere about it.

[mshr1ver]

He's the same dude that said gay marriage is like pedophilia or bestiality. He's a disgusting little man. Santorum = the frothy mixture of semen, feces and lube made from anal sex.

[HarvardLawGroup]

All he is doing is pandering to the racist constituents in the republican party therefore he is an asshole

[no2facism]

Vote Ron Paul, Santorum is disgusting Judas.

[interiot2]

Wow. Did he really say that out loud?

[LadyeCatte]

Suuure... doesn't matter that Blacks represent a total of 7% of Iowan welfare recipients, or that whites represent 80%.. BLACKS are the ones sucking up poor white people's money, huh?

Reminds me of my supervisor: For years, it was okay for people to stay and chat during their breaks and lunches as long as it there weren't any Blacks around. But as soon as she noticed I was doing it too, all of sudden it was "a distraction" and banned. My supervisor is now officially a "santorum", too.

[wilsonspaulding]

@LadyeCatte Every black leader draws constant attention to the high unemployment, disproportionate crime rates, and disproportionate welfare rates among the blacks. Now that a white man says it in the context of helping people get on their feet, it's racist.Sorry, I've seen the racist played ad infinitum over the last decade until I'm numb. .

[AntonTheSpot]

@wilsonspaulding I agree

[Joeybsmooth]

@wilsonspaulding

But this was random, he just out of know where singled out black people, and know one else.

[wilsonspaulding]

@LadyeCatte Now I just reject it. Fact is most decent people, including minorities, judge people on individual character. You will never move on until you stop looking at every comment through the filter of race

[awreslr2]

@LadyeCatte I'm with you, the snide homophobic Santorum said "black people" and "other people". Of course it was a race-based comment. We call comments like that "dog whistles", only the racist white folks know what he meant and consider the remark as patriotic and American as apple pie. Some of them even commented here!

[elgmalone]

@LadyeCatte This comment is not spam. It's in response to a comment made by wilsonspaulding.

[elgmalone]

@wilsonspaulding We're not looking at it through any filters. He said "I don't want to make black people's lives better by giving them someone else's money." If he didn't mean black people then why did he say black people?

[HoldFastUSN]

@LadyeCatte You are completely making up your statistics, I AM NOT AT ALL RACIST but I do not like it when people need to create facts and numbers to try to get a point across. In FACT blacks represent around 14% of the Nations population but nearly 40% of ALL welfare receipients are African American...Rick Santorum is still an ass hole but if were going to put numbers and statistics out there let's be honest about it and not just make shit up...

[LadyeCatte]

@HoldFastUSN I don't bother making up statistics.. EVER. I trust the reviewer who broke the story to know what he's talking about.

As for Blacks being the 40% nationwide, I point you to my previous comment below.

BTW: In 2008-'09, Flextronics Intl' was the backup for Verizon Wireless stores in case there was a union problem. Flextronics ACTIVELY kept the number of minority employees in the Colorado/Wyoming stores low. One of the managers complained about it, they fired him.

[cocosolo03]

@LadyeCatte I agree with you. Rick Santorum is just another racist Italian American blames Black people for the Welfare problem in America. Your supervisor was just another bigot that smiles in your face.. WhiteAmerica can't get over that fact, that a Black Man is in the White House. Go to hell Mr. Santorum go back to Italy :-( You are not an American.

[WhiteWeasel420]

@cocosolo03 Why do you support Flooding EVERY White country and ONLY White countries with Third World Non-Whites?

What NON-WHITE country would you like to flood with millions of third world foreigners and assimilate the population with?

Or do you ONLY support doing this in WHITE countries?

In other words, why do YOU support WHITE GENOCIDE???

[Dgamer5000]

@LadyeCatte "Blacks represent a total of 7% of Iowan welfare recipients, or that whites represent 80%.."

Not that I agree with anything this guy has said, but your argument isn't really valid. When you also take into consideration that total percentage of Iowa's black population (~3%) and white population (~90%), you will notice that a black person is more likely to be on welfare than his/her white counterpart. The question is whether or not this matters.

[WhiteWeasel420]

@Dgamer5000 No, it only matters when we're talking about Whites on welfare.

If we're talking about Blacks on welfare just sit back and wait for somebody to defuse any debate by screaming "RAAYYCCISSSS" :O

Anti-Racism is just a codeword for Anti-White

[LadyeCatte]

@Dgamer5000 Really? And why's that, I ask? See, when I had to go on welfare, it was because my company copied my signature to disciplinary documents and used them to fire me. They didn't like it when I kept telling them my coworker was calling the customers "chinks" and "taliban-iraquis". No job for nearly two years. Now, to some, that's just "another Black person on welfare".

If there are more Blacks than White on welfare, trying finding out why instead of assuming.
