WASHINGTON President Obama last week sought to turn attention from health care to immigration in other words, from one racially divisive issue to another.
Whites tend to hold negative views of Obamacare, while blacks tend to like it. Specifically, 55 percent of whites, an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll found this year, consider Mr. Obamas health care law a bad idea, while 59 percent of blacks call it a good idea. On immigration, 51 percent of whites oppose legal status for illegal residents, but 63 percent of blacks and 76 percent of Hispanics favor it.
The statistics mirror the core philosophical division in Washingtons fierce battles over taxes, spending and debt. Whites say government does too much, while blacks and Hispanics say it should do more to meet peoples needs.

The most vile, putrid, KKK racist, neo-Nazi publication in America is the New York Times.
The NYT is run by left-wing commie JINOs who hate Israel. It’s time to start telling the truth here on FR, and I say that as an independent contractor who has worked for a number of Israeli high-tech companies. We took on the Soros/BDS/ Palestinian/EU fascists who tried to boycott Israeli exports and kicked their Nazi asses.
Well, they’re not the KKK or the Reich, but history tells they wouldn’t raise much of an alarm if the KKK or the Reich were politically, shall I say, politically aligned. It’s run by an Episcopalean named Pinch. If I misspelled that, don’t care.
Impossible, not almost? They overplayed it. Don’t think the collapse will lead to single player. Sorry, payer. Could have if talented politicians were in charge.
“Its run by an Episcopalean named Pinch.”
My error. I thought Pinch was a JINO. Thanks for the correction, SJackson, and thanks for the many interesting threads. Take care, buddy.
That was his dad. I’m told he gets very angry at any insinuation he’s Jewish, though I don’t think he’s a practicing Episcopalian any more either.
