President Addresses the Congressional Black Caucus

President Addresses the Congressional Black Caucus

Here's his address from this past evening. Lots of encouraging facts and figures we don't often hear on the main stream media. Don't forget, we elected this guy and he's doing his job, while Congress takes another 5 week paid vacation, and Fox News will never report what's been happening in the last 5.75 years.

Most African-Americans and Hispanics do not vote in mid-terms and that is going to be our downfall for a long long time.

Remember how Florida has treated voters. Guess what, the governor that did to all of us is going to win, thanks to apathy.

In Colorado and Iowa, Hispanics are unhappy about postponement of executive order by a few months (so that an executive order, which honestly, will not stand a chance in courts, will stand in a more Democratic Senate). We are on the verge of losing both states.
Many Obama voters in Iowa are apathetic.

Obama has been ridiculed and disrespected and we have not done enough to help him. Turning over to Tea Partiers and playing defense is not doing us or our President any favor. Please do all you can to help our President and ignore media bullshit and misplaced anger from Obama voters. He is doing his very best to wade through the mess our voters, yes we Obama supporters, have created during mid-terms because of apathy as Tea Partiers have been steadfast through it all.

Actually, I should post this in the main thread as well.
