Chicago activists react to Champ's state of the union and it wasn't pretty.
[The Blaze] Excerpt: J.R. Fleming, a member of Chicagos Anti-Eviction Campaign, said Obamas speech was the same ol, same ol. He summed up the address as a bunch of talk and rhetoric to give favor to a dying economy in America.How many times did you vote for him J.R.? Rhetorical question, sorry. And the reason why our economy is dying is the presidents approach is always to place blame, he added. Its not the 1 percent problem, its not the 99 percent problem, its an American problem. And the problem is patronage, nepotism and cronyism. Couldn't agree more J.R. You're 100 percent right. Joe Watkins, the founder of V.O.T.E. (Voices of the Ex-Offender), said Obama has been more hurtful to the black race than he has been helpful. He claimed some people will accept his failures due to symbolic reasons relating to the color of his skin. But those of us at the bottom of the ladder dont accept that, he added. And as a resident of Chicago, you expected something else ? Posted by: Besoeker 2014-01-31 |
