[blueinindiana]

So poor blacks in the United States caused Iceland Banks to collapse and other countries too?

Wow for being a minority with NO money they sure have tons of power!

[NOLALady]

1. Now THAT's Black Power!

[crankychatter]

2. well said... this is right up there with "they enslaved themselves"

how can people not hear themselves and see how friggin twisted their thinking is?

[SmileyRose]

3. That's what they keep saying on the TEEEVEEE and talk radio

[Motown_Johnny]

4. Then the best way to keep this from ever happening again is to fight poverty

[jberryhill]

5. Oh HELL YEAH - Haven't you heard?

The biggest problem we always have is that poor people are getting all of the money.

This election, we should get all that money back from poor people, who've been ripping us off for the sake of their extravagant lifestyles for decades.

[BlueManDude]

6. Poor blacks plus a gay Massachusetts liberal.

[Liberal_in_LA]

7. Some blacks have money. stop with the stereotypes.

[livedemocarticordie]

8. well you dont think it was the rich WASPS do you?

No not just the poor blacks, the black infested Acorn, the hispanic lady that cleans my office and her siblings and in-laws and oh yeah right, the jews who went on religious vacation when they should have been helping Congress shore everything up---

now that's what I call playing to the Republican Base ...

[applegrove]

9. Talk about catapulting the propaganda.

[chieftain]

10. The argument is so absurd on its face that only those who

believe Faux and RW radio are so naive or intellectually dishonest as to spew the bs.

[AlCzervik]

11. that's funny, the foreclosures on my little street all had white homeowners.

[Phx_Dem]

12. Bet they didn't know they had that kind of power!

But hey, let's blame the poor people because we're Republicans and we have no answers and no integrity.

Actually, they do have alot of power in this election and, hopefully, they'll exercise it by voting against the assholes that are blaming the global crisis on them.

[GinaMaria]

13. and with the low amount of stress of being poor

they can mastermind an evil plan like global economic destruction :sarcasm:

[gmoney]

17. the poor sure fooled those big city-slicker bankers and investment houses!

:sarcasm:

[DawgHouse]

14. You have forgotten an important player.

The poor blacks couldn't have done this without the help of WJ Clinton. So it's his fault too. :sarcasm:

[SmileyRose]

18. Excuse me but

that is so 2007. Get with the times - Bubba is off the hook now that we have those awful black people and their terrorist friends to blame.

ugh

[davepc]

15. Just like the Jews cost Germany victory in World War 1.

[TheKentuckian]

16. More compelling evidence for the case for ending Republicanism

in our time.

These tactics are quite familiar.

Take them down!!!

[treestar]

19. I was thinking that if their is economic collapse elsewhere, then

it is not just the CRA and housing loans in the U.S. that are to blame - and even that theory is debunked.

Right wingers like to keep things oversimplified, but when they blame poor people for things, it's at its most absurd - we're supposed to feel sorry for middle class people because of those less fortunate than they. Do they realize how ridiculous they sound?
