Catholic Online ^ | 1/07/09

A group of African Americans and other community leaders gathered in Atlanta today to discuss an agenda to be presented to President Elect Barack Obama regarding his first 100 days in office.

The leaders agreed that African Americans who are celebrating the upcoming inauguration of President-Elect Barack Obama should carry a pro-family/pro-community agenda to Washington, DC.

"African Americans, like many Americans are pro-life and uphold pro-creative marriage," said Alveda King, a spokesperson for the team. "As we see the dawn of a new year and a great milestone being passed, people across the country should let our new president know that we want babies in the womb protected and traditional marriage respected."

The 13% - soon to be the new ruling class.

Maybe Planet Of The Apes will turn out to be prophetic after all.

Their new Messiah didn’t even support BAIPA. They’ve got to be kidding with this plea.

These people are not going to happy! Obama stands for none of the above. . .save his own pursuits.

African Americans all over the country have already delivered a loud message. But unfortunately its not pro family or pro community. It’s more like leading the nation in abortions, births to unwed mothers, gang and drug violence, black on black murders. They lead in that category. Oh yeah they also lead in numbers on welfare rolls. I for one hope there are no blackouts during the inauguration because there wont be a tv or an unbroken window left in D.C. What was that message African American leaders were delivering to Barack Hussein Obama.

African -Americans(sic) got their man elected. Now they can be totally ignored. Their man is first of all a leftist/socialist, not an “African-American”. The black “community” has now no more influence at all. Their pro-life pro-family concerns will not even be laughed at- they will only be heard as incomprehensible jabber.They have used up ALL their political influence.

I don't think so. By getting whom they thought to be "their" man elected they have consigned themselves to the states of disabled field hands on the Democrat plantation. They will be coddled and taken care of(lots of welfare coming) but they will have no political influence on what is primarily a socialist party in which all other qualities are ignored or assumed to be in concert with socialism, no matter what the reality.

The Blacks have been exploited by the elitist pseudo-intellectuals of left. Obama has spent a good bit of his life exploiting the Black Americans as a community organizer, teaching them to game the system and reject American values.

"They will be coddled and taken care of (lots of welfare coming)"

In New America, post Jan. 20, 2009, citizens are cautioned to be more sensitive and avoid the use of outmoded words like "Welfare" and "Reparations" that can be hurtful or divisive.

Any Handout will henceforth be known as an "Economic Stimulus".

Voluntary compliance is demanded.
Federal prisons will be converted to Reeducation camps for whites clinging to their old fashioned dictionaries and word usage.

Your federal government is here to bring HOPE and CHANGE to you.
