so i do practical jokes with my buddy all the time, sign each other up for crazy stuff, order weird things for him etc.
He's a liberal so I signed him up to recieve emails from michele bachmann.
Naturally he got a bucketload of 'em and he just thought he could easily unsubscribe.
He got a call from someone in their HQ wherever it is asking why he was unsubscribing, he asked them how they got his number (I didnt provide it) and he wasnt given a straight answer.
Then the rep gave him loads of tea party hard sell, asked him to donate and ignored my buddy's request to unsubscribe.
Only when he threatened to report the rep to the FCC, did the caller hang up. This is unsubscribing from an email list!!
We're months away from the primaries and this shit is going on already.
Imagine what they'd be like in power

You are so fucking pathetic. Posting four inflammatory youtube videos concerning welfare that show absolutely nothing in comparison to the previous administrations where the same thing occurred, and will after this president, because welfare will exist regardless.
All this in the face of the most reckless unfunded spending on international war efforts in our countries history. NO! It's ALL going to the poor! That is why we are broke!
Get a fucking clue and learn how make an argument.

You mean O'tramua doesn't scare the shit out of you already ?
Most people are increasingly scared of the political terrorists who call themselves the TEA party. When politicians use the 'reasoning' that they want to make a statement about this country's finances and fiscal responsibility by refusing to vote on a debt ceiling so the country CANNOT pay its debts, you should be VERY VERY scared.

Why are black folk flash mob rioting in US cities? I thought having a black(1/2) was going to heal the earth and money would come raining down from the heavens? Obama wants us to cut back on eating and electricity, yet he took a vacation to Martha Vineyards for the week that cost 43K. Do as I say but not as I do.....

American voters got douped, I saw it coming a mile away.
And they've been douped in the past & they'll be douped in the future by politicians from both parties. The very nature of every single politician is to bullshit people into voting for them. Politicians are complete pieces of shit. Any person who actually believes that The Tea Party is really trying to help America is an idiot. All The Tea Party is doing is selling people a different line of political bullshit so that they get into power-bottom line.

I love how whites like to make flash mobs a pathological condition among only blacks.
You do know the London riots were multiethnic and moreover (not surprisingly, underreported) mostly white?
It is a function of poverty and joblessness which arise from the effects of systematic and institutional racism against blacks, hispanics, asians etc. OF COURSE there are blacks, hispanics, asians etc. who do not want to work. That is the glaring exception and highlighted by the media.
The participation rate in the labor force in 2010 for blacks males age 16-24 was 38%!! That is a TRUE unemployment rate of 62% (not accounting for high schoolers and college students who choose to go to school).
Who has failed these individuals? The government because the schools are inadequate. Then corporations, who by LAW MUST equally consider every job applicant but want NOTHING to do with young black man in any meaningful paying job or setting.
Result? Loitering which turns to wilding which turns to rioting. Just looks overseas and whites are doing to same thing en masse. It is not exclusively a 'black problem' as you claim it to be.
Is it there decision to engage in flash mob? Yes.
Would there decision be different if the communities and schools they lived in were invested in properly? Yes.
DRASTICALLY different. So much so, an entire community's consciousness would change...

Scal we don't always see eye to eye but obviously I have respect for you intellectually even if we have differing opinions. I'm very surprised that you don't mention the disintegration of the family unit or lack of familial support/participation in education as something that has failed these individuals. Any particular reason why you didn't mention them? Don't think that factor plays a role?

You can't be serious. Does racism exist? Certainly. But I have been in Human Resources for 20 years and I would hire a wildebeest if I thought they would do an excellent job. I've been in NUMEROUS meetings where the topic of discussion has been, "how can we get greater access to QUALIFIED minority candidates?"
I'm very surprised that you don't mention the disintegration of the family unit or lack of familial support/participation in education as something that has failed these individuals.
Maybe because that would involve personal responsibility.

People are so black and white. When will you realize the world is grey? Just because the the Tea Party is wrong (which i believe they are) doesnt mean Obama is our savior. He isn't. Politics are SUPPOSED to be people with opposing views compromising for the betterment of the country. That is something that the Tea Party is unwilling to do. And that is my only problem with them.

Stuff like this scares me. You do understand that if you completely get your way there will be another group of angry people feeling the same way you do. Nothing truly gets solved. I can only hope most Americans don't feel like you
