It only goes to purchase another Rolex watch or hand made Italian suit.   Drag their sorry selves out of those fancy churches and force them to get involved in the communities in which their churches sit.  These so-called ministers ought to be interested in more than what is in the collection plate.

All of my siblings and children,       and cousins and their children, with two exceptions, attended college (some with multiple degrees), some under extreme hardship, to make sure that we werer prepared to take care of ourselves.   Even the ones who did not attend college have never been without a job and their children are about to start fressman year.    There were not thoughts of quiting and sitting around whinning.

It what Ms. Waters and the CBC are saying now that actually matters. I supported Obama, and I still do, but I agree with Rep. Waters 100% wig or no wig. In fact, these days I wonder if Hillary would have had more balls than Pres. Obama in dealing with these matters. At this point in time, it can be honestly debated that the Clintons have done more for the advancement of Afro Am folks than Obama has, when I think about it.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> <item><title>By: MoObama</title><link>http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/2009/12/the-cbc-raps-obama-on-black-jobs/comment-page-1/#comment-321050</link> <dc:creator>MoObama</dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 10 Dec 2009 12:41:25 +0000</pubDate> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.jackandjillpolitics.com/?p=18292#comment-321050</guid> <description>I never understood her Infatuation with Bill and Hillary.

They should have been knocking down some Governor&#039;s and Mayor&#039;s doors to see that some of that money got to small Black owned businesses and that Black business owners knew how to petition for funds. Many of our elected officials love the Washington life...little work and lots of perks. Maxine Walters has been in office so long she may end up like Sen. Byrd.  I grew up in California and I never saw much she did for the people of South Central Los Angeles. If someone from South Central would like to disabuse me of this notion I welcome it.  Everyone wants Obama to do fix it like he&#039;s a dictator. Let the CBC get busy like you said developing policy instead of whining and threatening.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I stated a few days ago, where was the CBC when the stimulus money was being allotted to the states?

Read this:&lt;br&gt;SEC. 2. PURPOSES.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The purposes of this Act are—&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(1) to immediately provide authority and facilities that the Secretary of the Treasury can use to restore liquidity and stability to the financial system of the United States; and&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(2) to ensure that such authority and such facilities are used in a manner that—&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(A) protects home values, college funds, retirement accounts, and life savings;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(B) preserves homeownership and promotes jobs and economic growth;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(C) maximizes overall returns to the taxpayers of the United States; and&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;(D) provides public accountability for the exercise of such authority.&lt;br&gt; Source: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.washingtonwatch.com/blog/2008/09/28/bailout-text-tarp-taxpayers-are-really-payin/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://www.washingtonwatch.com/blog/2008/09/28/...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Does or does not SEC 2 subsections 2 articles A &amp; B provide money to mitigate foreclosures? Doesn&quot;t this mean that this Presidnet has deliberately chosen to use his authority to use TARP money to mitigate foreclosures? I mean we just treated to two major newspapers commenting on how thorough this president was in gathering information. What was that you admired Jack in this past Sunday&#039;s open thread, &quot;&quot;The three-month review that led to the escalate-then-exit strategy is a case study in decision making in the Obama White House — intense, methodical, rigorous, earnest and at times deeply frustrating for nearly all involved. It was a virtual seminar in Afghanistan and Pakistan, led by a president described by one participant as something “between a college professor and a gentle cross-examiner.”&quot;&lt;br&gt;So for 11months our &quot;college professor and gentle cross-examiner&quot; hasn&#039;t taken a look at the TARP legislation. These facts don&#039;t match his actions. It is clear he is a big a tool for financial institutions as Henry Paulson was. We are going to have to stop calling Geithner Fredo. He isn&#039;t against the family. We haveto call him Timmy. Timmy&#039;s unusual. Timmy doesn&#039;t blow a dog whistles he responds to Lassie&#039;s barking.&lt;br&gt;What say you now Jack?</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The CBC is correct the man every day proves himself to be  uncaring about the common man.

He knows what should have been done by now...Bill Clinton lost big during mid term election and yet Bill was reelected again go figure. Look at George Bush Jr. everyone thought that no way this fool would get reelected again yet...he did. Weather Obama does or doesn&#039;t get reelected again is in the hands of god. &lt;br&gt; No one two years ago ever thought we&#039;d have a Black President but it happen by the grace of god. If he is not put back in office so be it his time in office was up. Carter served one term and is doing just fine. Another thing people keep talking about Obama crappy poll numbers but who does the Repubs have to run against him?!!!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I look at it this way Obama will still be president until 2012 and there is not a damn thing they can do about it.
