Obama compiling secret race database

[Belz...]

Obama is scheming to use racial politics to create loads of racial legislation.

He's wants to desegregate the suburbs, regulate all school punishment based on race, and god knows what.

Did you family fam cotton at any point in the past ?

 

[Belz...]

Yawn. Obama is STILL implementing socialism/communism/naziism/FEMA camps/alien anal probes, just like he's been for six years. And we still haven't seen any actual results. He'd better get going, he's only got 18 months left.

Remember when CTers said that Bush was going to enact emergency laws to remain in officer indefinitely ?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Also Bill Clinton. It's an endlessly refreshing CT. Accuse the incumbent whoever he or she might be, then transfer the accusation to the next incumbent and pretend that the previous accusation never happened.

It never happened because they managed to warn everyone in time.

Who does Obama think he is, the first black President?

The first black, muslim, Indonesian/Kenyan president. Forever.

I'll believe it when I see it.








I won't see it.

 

[fuelair]

Holy cow. He even wants to desegregate the suburbs? Run for the hills, the jig is up.

Hell, he already desegregated my suburb. Damn his eyes for putting in neat Black neighbors and some cool Hispanics. And the sneaky bugger accomplished it before 1998!!! The year we moved here!!!!

Elf Grinder; just how in heck would Obama get the US Congress to pass any of this totally made up BS legislation? Have you been paying any attention to what actually happens in the interactions and discourse between Congress and the President in recent years? I know you hold some extreme views, but falling for this nonsense is just silly³.

HUD is going to require housing for minorities.

Its in the quote.

Its forced government migration based on race. Because according to the supreme court decision if properties have a statistical racial disparity the government can require that they be corrected.

So HUD will sue the real estate developers and require that they build low income housing and designate this to minorities.

Its like saying - you have to build houses for minorities or you will be fined millions of dollars.

This isn't very difficult to see, the WSJ backs up the assertion

Ugh!

I knew this sort of thing would happen once the Jeffersons "started movin' on up" and "gettin' a piece of the pie".

You're new here, aren't you.

Ouch.

ETA-- here is a quote that was recorded from one of the Donald Trump rallies, I think in Vegas. Trump fan said,:"I like him; he's honest, he knows when to call a spade a spade."

You're new here, aren't you.

I know I was wasting my breath (or keystrokes), but I'm used to that over here in the C&CT section.

 

[Biscuit]

I am glad to say that I have never seen a spade.

ETA: I heard that interview as well and I cringed. Another at a Trump rally in NC said, "He says things no one else does. For example he will build a wall on the border." He knows how to pander to the base.

I don't use that idiom myself, because it's likely to be misinterpreted, but I don't think it has a racist origin.

Whether or not the speaker had a racist intent is hard to know.

I don't use that idiom myself, because it's likely to be misinterpreted, but I don't think it has a racist origin.

It is not racist by original intent, but has come to have racist connotations by unfortunate and unintended lexicographic association. And the best irony of all is that the original intent of "calling a spade a spade," and the use to which it was put up through the end of the 19th century, was to label as provincial and witless anyone who couldn't think of a better word to call a spade, than "spade." Fits Trump to a tee, if you ask me.

Slightly off topic, but I'm reminded of Russell Baker (I think it was, anyway) who remarked on Richard Nixon that he was a man who called a spade a manual excavation implement.

When I was in the army, it was an "entrenching tool". I tend to just say "shovel".
