  • Santorum is a moron

    

  • @Chris08Wc come on dude. Republicans don't give a fuck about minorities, or the poor. the republican party was founded by segregationist democrats, democrats that didn't want black people to have rights. You really think with all the racist shit they say now, that their racism ever disappeared? and if they cared about the poor they wouldnt do this "trickle down" bullshit and let the wealth accumulate in the among the upper class nothing trickles anywhere...

  • @lostisthebest815 and you probably believe that they are happy about it

  • @MariahStalwart But see, that's just it. The fact that it's not a room full of black people is EXACTLY WHY it doesn't make sense to assume he said "black people". He said that Medicaid is pressuring the states to get "ALL OF YOU" enrolled and dependent on the government. ALL OF YOU. You people in the room. You not-a-bunch-of-black-people.

    Interpreting his stumble as the word "black" doesn't make sense in that room, in that paragraph, sounding just like "lives" a sec later.

  • @TheSchaef47 The bottom line is that he targeted the black population in a room full of white people. I didnt see not one black person in that room. There was no need for that comment, He was just saying what the majority of every vody else in that room thought. America was built on the back bones of slavery and hard working black people but he wants to call us lazy. He needs to take his misinformed, miseducated, and simply racist behind on somewhere with all that.

  • RACIST!

  • Whites: +50% of U.S. population, 38.8% of welfare recipients are white

    Blacks: 14% of U.S. population, 39.8% of welfare recipients are black

  • Sound Man with the head phones on is like "I don't believe this shit"

  • @amitbarfs If you're going to be glib I'm not going to continue this discussion.
