Stimulus To Areas that Supported Obama
2009 July 9
WASHINGTON — Billions of dollars in federal aid delivered directly to the local level to help revive the economy have gone overwhelmingly to places that supported President Obama in last year’s presidential election.
That aid — about $17 billion — is the first piece of the administration’s massive stimulus package that can be tracked locally. Much of it has followed a well-worn path to places that regularly collect a bigger share of federal grants and contracts, guided by formulas that have been in place for decades and leave little room for manipulation.
Sounds like the way they do things in CrOOK County.

Bernie Madoff’s ponzi scheme pales in comparison to Obama’s giant theft from the American taxpayer.
The people have put a criminal in the big house. He should be escorted to the “other” big house.

That’s the way things have always worked in Chicago. If your garbage isn’t getting picked up, you don’t contact the city. You call your Democratic precinct captain.

Yup, Crook County.

O/T But this story on Drudge caught my eye, and after I read it wondered why it was so difficult to call it a “hate” crime.

Um…..Black people are never ever racist, so this was not a hate crime. DUH!
This is being discussed on another site I post on, and there is a person on there saying these boys were in the right because black people were oppressed. Look at this response, which was right on:
I have said it before and I will say it again, I was no more a slave owner than you were a slave, so SHUT UP already. Besides, I thought Obama was going to end all racism….oh wait….we already established it is NOT racist for black teens to beat white families in the name of a black world. Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevermind.

Good follow-up post JustMary! I especially liked the irony implied in it. Where in the world does it say its ok to attack whites if you’re black, but it’s a “hate” crime if blacks are attacked by whites????
And, you’re also almost “psychic” when predicting how the black opportunists (Sharpton/Jackson) would flock to hype an innocent black family being attacked by “dozens” of white males! Geez, I can see the foot high headlines, as our friends, the MSM, would salivate getting such a story on page one!

Where’s the justice? There were in the time of slavery, free black men, even in the South, who bought and sold slaves. So who is going to check that out and mete out the appropriate ’social justice’ on that family’s great-great-grandfather buying slaves?

Ironically, Obama’s relatives, on his Mother’s side, were slave owners.
