    Pfft. Belafonte criticizes everyone. For someone with little cred, he certainly has a big mouth..



    His usual methood is to criticize only republicans. He formerly praised obama as the great black hope. So the fact that he's now criticizing obama is a sign of just how far obama has sunk in losing his sunk. Even his die-hard fans are abandoning him. Yippee ki yah!

    Obama is a loser but the Democratic party has created a society of losers...[:/]



    The republicans are tax contributors, and the democraps are tax takers. We've reached the point where there are more takers than there are givers, and 51% of all workers pay no taxes. That's the tipping point whhere society will keep voting itself more bennies at the expense of the few givers, in an ever-downward spiral toward bankruptcy. And obama does nothing to stop it, and keeps spending more More MORE!

  3. The fact is, he's good at dismantling. He's good at critiquing. He's good at not being the last guy, the one you didn't like. But he's not good at building, creating, calling into being. He was good at summoning hope, but he's not good at directing it and turning it into something concrete that answers a broad public desire.

    And so his failures in the debt ceiling fight. He wasn't serious, he was only shrewd—and shrewdness wasn't enough. He demagogued the issue—no Social Security checks—until he was called out, and then went on the hustings spouting inanities. He left conservatives scratching their heads: They could have made a better, more moving case for the liberal ideal as translated into the modern moment, than he did. He never offered a plan. In a crisis he was merely sly. And no one likes sly, no one respects it.

    So he is losing a battle in which he had superior forces—the presidency, the U.S. Senate. In the process he revealed that his foes have given him too much mystique. He is not a devil, an alien, a socialist. He is a loser.

    She says it like it is.

  4. “Barack Obama and his mission has failed because it lacked a certain kind of moral courage, a kind of moral vision . . . a kind of courage we are in need of,” said the King of Calypso. “When he said ‘Yes, we can,’ it was politically clever, but he never defined what it is we can do. So we filled in those spaces — what we thought he meant — only to find we were disappointed, because none of those points was satisfied.”

    Ol' Harry was all ga-ga over Obama at first, but now he's finally realized he's just an empty suit. Hairy is about two years slower than republicans.

  5. President Obama brought his debt battle to Twitter and he lost – more than 40,000 Twitter followers.

    Obama asked Americans Friday to call, email, and tweet Congressional leaders to “keep the pressure on” lawmakers in hopes of reaching a bipartisan deal to raise the nation’s $14.3 trillion debt limit ahead of an Aug. 2 deadline.

    Not everyone is a fan of the presidential spam. By Friday evening, the President had lost more than 40,000 Twitter followers - and counting.

    He's losing the country, losing his support, losing his own democRATS, and now he can't even keep his social network fans.

  6. There are fewer undocumented immigrants in California – and the Sacramento region – because many are now finding the American dream south of the border.

    "It's now easier to buy homes on credit, find a job and access higher education in Mexico," Sacramento's Mexican consul general, Carlos González Gutiérrez, said Wednesday. "We have become a middle-class country."

    Mexico's unemployment rate is now 4.9 percent, compared with 9.4 percent joblessness in the United States.

    I guess Obama didn't plan to solve the illegal immigrant problem this way, but he's made the american economy so bad, that they're now going back home to find jobs. Ha! Way to go Obama!

  7. According to an analysis by the Economic Policy Institute, in Charlotte, N.C., the unemployment rate for African-Americans is 19.2 percent. If you add in people who have given up looking for jobs, that number exceeds 20 percent, which, according to economists Algernon Austin and William Darity, has effectively mired blacks in a depression.

    The Congressional Black Caucus has been leaning on President Obama to address the epidemic of black unemployment on his watch. So far, the president has resisted the notion of job programs specifically targeting African-Americans.
