Obama Plays the Race Card

[OldRegular]

Through the wealth redistribution from the poor and middle class to the rich the Republicans have already succeeded in putting those two classes in financial chains. With the proposals of Romney and Ryan they want the chains double locked.

Spoken like a true leftist/socialist!

Be honest folk, it is not racial chains that is being talked about, but financial chains.

Nonsense! You haven't a clue!

I understand what "shackling Wall Street" means.

It is referring to government regulations.

I don't understand what Biden means though when he says "put the chains back on" people.

What are the "chains" that he is referring to?

Then you need to go back an watch the statement made before that. That will clear it up for you.

Are you saying that you can't explain what "chains" the Republicans will put people in?

If you do understand what the "chains" are why don't you explain it for those of us who don't get it?

What are the "chains" that he is referring to?

When where those "chains" previously on someone?

When and how were they removed?

How will they be put back on?

What is Biden even talking about?

It seems like nobody will tell us, except to say we are wrong.

The chains were on, now they're off, and republicans want them back on.

Really ? What chains were on them in the first place ?

You are exactly right Bro. Curtis. Apparently I am unable to get through to the unbelievers! And one accuses me of being like Zaac! Very sad!

Thanks, Curtis.

It's nice to know that I am not the only one too dumb to get it. :laugh:

Crabby can't answer the question so he hands out a FOUR book homework assignment. :laugh:

Yup. Of which I will read none.

What chains was Biden talking about ? What chains will the republicans put back on these folks ?

 

[targus]

The Obama administration has distanced itself from the remark, with a White House official telling reporters:

“President Obama has great affection for Joe, but we can make no more sense of the statement than any of you can." :laugh:

the chains attached to the shackles the Republicans were talking about. There is no difference between the two.

 

[Bro. Curtis]

What shackles ?

 

[Crabtownboy]

Yup. Of which I will read none.


Mark Twain put it well for those who will not read:

“The man who does not read has no advantage over the man who cannot read.”
Mark Twain

It is sad to see you put yourself in that position.

Stupidity is a condition. Ignorance is a choice and by refusing to read a person place has chosen to remain ignorant.

 

[Bro. Curtis]

Completely off-topic and inane.

What shackles ?

 

[Crabtownboy]

What shackles ?

The shackles of ignorance by people refusing to read and simply believe the propaganda of the right-wing.

 

[Bro. Curtis]

So republicans want people to stop reading ?



:laugh:


Off-topic, and inane.

What shackles ?

 

[Bro. Curtis]

It's an easy question, Mitch, and C4K, (both of which I respect), what shackles, or chains, or any other restraining device do republicans want to put BACK on those poor folks from Virginia, (or was it one of the Carolinas) ?

I should have put right-wing and left-wing. Republicans, if you are not rich, love it when they propose legislation that will make them richer while making your poorer and people simply accept their propaganda and support their ideas. They have been very successful as redistributing the income of the poor and middle class into their pockets ... and many in those two classes cannot see what they are doing. Well a good pickpocket does it without the victim knowing their pockets are being picked.

The shackles like those that were placed on miners who were paid in script that could only be paid at the company store as well as having to live in company housing.

The shackles of predator lending that keep people shackled in debt.

The shackles of limiting upward mobility through discriminatory employment and promotion practices.

I am sure you can think of other shackles if you try.

What are the "shackles" that he is talking about?

What "shackles" are supposedly being put on the people?

How about a straight forward answer?

So you can show us all where these talking points are part of a Republican plarform ? You can prove....

Republicans want to bring back company housing along with script.
Republicans support predatory lending.
Republicans want dicrimination in the workplaces.(There you at least admit Biden's comment was racial, in nature).

That should keep you busy for a while.
