    Check the statistics....black and hispanic are 2 of the largest unemployment groups in America. Obama teases them with freebies and open promises he has no intentions of keeping. He knows no matter what their vote can be bought and are in his hip pocket. America PLEASE PLEASE wake up before we become Europe the 2nd.

    I'm friends with quite a lot of liberals. On nights out drinking the homeless would be out begging for money so I would give them a buck or two if I had it. Without fail the liberals would yell at me for giving them money.

    My brother had the same thing happen to him...it was his liberal friends that gave him hell,for helping a bleeding,beat up woman,to get away from her abusive husband on the street.
    He said he couldn't live with himself,if he read in the paper,the next day,that a woman was killed by her husband.
    He gave her a 20 dollar bill.

    Democrats are like a Kid with his toys; only the Democrats toys are their voting blocks. They separate their toys into little groups, they put the Hispanic voters over here, the LBGT's over here, African American voters over here, Unions over here, the poor over here, ect. Then they tell each of their little groups how much more they love them than all the others, patting each group on the head in turn and telling them: "just keep voting for us and we'll give you evrything you want and more." Each little group claps and cheers, then runs off to vote their benefactors in for another term. But, none of those promises are kept, and so the process of promises and head patting starts all over again.

    They care so much, First thing they have plans for their health care is to have the I.R.S. check their bank account before the doctor is called in ,and then again the doctor is liable to be an agent himself

    The poor have been voting Democrat for decades, and they're STILL poor, then those poor people let themselves be convinced by the Dems that its the Repubs fault.
    Just look at the poorest cities and you'll find Dems in charge and plenty of poverty.

    Well that's who we are. Your gang wont do it. The right wingers only care about the rich, and actually hate the poor. How many times on S.H. do you see the right wingers demean the poor by calling them lazy, and only want free hand outs. So we all know how the right wing gang cares about the poor. Anyway the the right wing dupes are to busy voting for candidates that will vote for more welfare for the rich and rich corporations!!!

    You're right about that. Also comments like moochers, no work ethics and all types of b.s. How much money do you need to live? I don't care how much money someone has, but for heaven's sake, do something good with at least a portion of it.

    Hey, you belong to the real greed gang the right wing, whose Plutocrat billionaires bosses want more money out of the tax payers, because they say they need more money. Of course your all screwed up most liberals are not rich we are the working class, something you can't even conjure up in your mind because you are so surrounded by the big money guys. The Koch brothers carry around more money in their pockets, then all the working class have collectively.

    I wouldn't go so far as to say they don't care about the poor, but I would bet that if you took away everyone's voting franchise (below a certain income level) they would dump them in a heartbeat. By the way, I am not advocating doing this, as I would lose my vote along with the rest.

    I give a few of the Democrats credit for being well intended idealist dopes but the majority are just legalized shysters offering the poor and ignorant excuses, candy and dependency in exchange for political power. Trillions of dollars have been thrown down the fair "equality of outcome" toilet since the 60's and yet magically, somehow, someway, the solutions the Democrats offer only end making things even worse.

    ...But they "care" LOL.

    That's the extent of it but I'll bet they'd cut each others throat to get what they want.
