This is the message the great orator delivered to the CBC Saturday. What a great leader.

"Take off your bedroom slippers, put on your marching shoes."

Obama insisted that having "the folks who have benefited the most ... pay their fair share" in taxes must be part of any solution, adding, "This is all about fairness."

Sounds more like Rvvvvvrrrnd Jackson than the president.

Wow I was actually surprised that he said that, I had to click the link to see the quote.

Terrible thing to say coming from the President.

Well lake lover I suggest you click on the link if you want to read it in the "context" that suits you. He said it not anybody else.

Maybe he wasn't just addressing that comment to poor blacks. Most of the whining I hear is coming from the Tea Party. Rich white people are definitely "the ones who benefit the most" from the system!

So do those so called "rich white people" have jobs? I bet they do. Scream on and starve.

Obama is an angry racist. Always has been and always will be.
