I don't think they would ever ask anything offensive. But, I do have a friend that had to check if her child was her biological or adopted son. It took her aback because she hadn't thought of him as anything other than her son since the day they picked him up from the hospital. She says it took her days to check the box.

Could you please stop spreading FACTS around here and keep letting him and everyone else like him believe that the census is an Obama-led conspiracy to spread socialism around the world.

Census Control Clarified


By Keith Koffler
Roll Call Staff
March 11, 2009, 12 a.m.

The director of the 2010 Census will report to the Commerce secretary, a White House official said Tuesday, offering the clearest statement yet about the chain of command on the census and possibly allaying fears among Republicans that it will fall under the political control of the White House.

I have received no census form or paperwork. Should I have gotten it yet, or are they sending them out in waves?

For those who haven't seen it yet the Census Says"

1. How many people live at this address?

2. Name, age, Race of Person 1.

3. Name, age, Race of Person 2, relationship to person 1?.

3. Name, age, Race of Person 3, relationship to person 1?.
etc, etc...

I mean it is ridiculous how Obama took this thing over with the stimulus bill and turned it into such a big socialist agenda, end of America as we know it, pro-abortion, anti-white middle class document that it has become.

Don't you see Big Brother Obama written all over that?
He wants to make sure all the black and brown folks out count the white folks in this country.
Then he will create a reverse apartheid in this country.
Then he's gonna change this country's name to the United State of Obama.
Don't you see it.
