The left went into a predictable hissy this week after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's comments about his opposition to reparations for slavery. "We tried to deal with our original sin of slavery by fighting a Civil War, by passing landmark civil rights legislation. We’ve elected an African American president. I think we’re always a work in progress in this country.”
While the liberal media has been desperate to accuse McConnell of calling Barack Obama's presidency reparations for slavery, if you watch the video, it’s clear that what McConnell was saying—that the election of Barack Obama was a symbolic moment in the progress America has made over the last 150 years.

So the liberal media has been desperate to accuse McConnell of calling Barack Obama's presidency reparations for slavery?
Really? So what.

Yeah, but obama, the mulatto, was in the big house, so his representation of reparations doesn't count. He was more pampered and a direct product of the slave master. I'm not for reparations for anyone either, but the left should know that (blab's presidency as reparations) is not a good made up thing to accuse someone of saying. It's as stupid as they are.

FTA quoting BHO...“I think the whole country took some pride, and it was legitimate, that we had traveled enough along our journey from slavery, and Jim Crow, and discrimination to the point where we could elect somebody who looked like me to the highest office of the land,”
Except that BHO experienced none of those things in his cushy childhood in Seattle, Hawaii and Indonesia. IIRC, he’s decended form a slaver on his mother’s side.

Address all this nonsense to the Kenyan Klown he stole all your 'reparations'. McConnell is right but the first 'person of color' was a failed experiment and hope we never travel down that road again.

Spin it how you like, the election of Barack Obama was a gift. He wasn't even remotely qualified for the position and he proved it beyond a doubt by eight years of spending, golf, spending, vacations, spending and bungling on the world's stage. He was an embarrassment and a disaster and the democrats should all be punished for even thinking about vetting this fraud.
So show me the whip marks on your back and I will personally write you a check.

How about this? Anybody who wants reparations for slavery will receive a free first class ticket to the African country of their choice. Otherwise, stop yer bichin and get on with being an American.

Sen Fulbright, as racist a human as has ever waked the Earth, was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by Bill Clinton in 1994. Bill Clinton got 90+ percent of the AfAm vote. It shows that in the 1990s, 6 years after Reagan left office and with all ships rising, America was on its way to moving past the racial divide that haunted our past.
Bill Clinton survived in office by telling America the lie they really wanted to hear, "The era of Big Government is over." And half the Country just couldn't fathom that such a nice young man was the Ted Bundy of politics.
He was followed by Bush II, who sincerely espoused good old fashioned patriotism that most of America craved after decades in the anti-America desert. He didn't accomplish much else because of the now-institutionalized HRC-run, Leftists federal agencies. Jesse Jackson was the spokesperson for AfAms across America, making daily rounds of America's Fortune 500, taking his cut, cranking out illegitimate babies, and showing up to bad mouth Republicans on call.
When King Obama ascended the throne in 2008, he brought with him 30 years of pent-up, Leftist, anti-American, Baby-Boomer hate that hadn't seen daylight since LBJ was in office. He set this Country back 40 years by pitting citizen against citizen and spouting the biggest lie in American politics -- It wan's us Democrats; conservatives are the racists.
This has resulted in the burning of cities predicated on Race Lies, violence against innocent Americans that will never be fully known because these victims didn't contribute to The Narrative, and a Country that now looks like the Hutus and Tutsis.
It took the complete conversion of our primary and secondary education system, paid for by us, and institutionalized Leftist media that would make Pravda blush. But they did it. They split this great Country in two, because once they had our institutions, they didn't need The People.
We stand in a very delicate balance right now -- half the Country supporting Constitutional American life and the other half of the Country and the embedded bureaucracy trying to silence them and send them into political exile. The latter think that illegal immigrants will tip the balance win the day. We'll see.
#ThanksObama

Why should 13 percent of the population causing 80 percent of the problems be rewarded?

Logic doesn't matter. This is about "justice". Like meting out fines for grand dad's crimes, even if he committed none.

Obama and his homely family, is spending your reparations in France and Italy.

Just more of the Race Guilt Industry in America... continue to bilk whitey for every generation of blacks in this country who would never have been born, had they remained in Africa. This is the greatest nation in the history of mankind that gives true freedom and liberty to private citizens... but the never satisfied welfare blacks want us to never forget how much we owe them for the nothing they do.
