Punked again

President Barack Obama just got punked again by Boehner. It appears as if Obama is either afraid to stand up and act like a President or he doesn't know that he is the President of the United States of America.

As am African American

As am African American, I was quick to jump on the band wagon in support of Barrack Obama. Now in hind sight, I see that we as black people should have reserved our energy for a black President that reflects our American values. Barrack Obama was raised in countries that do not respect individual freedoms or individuals and I believe that is why he is insensitive to individual freedoms. I support health care reform, but I strongly object to the mandate requiring individuals to purchase health insurance. It's an assault on our personal freedoms and constitutional guarantees.
As a democrat and an Afro-American that loves America, I support the republican challenge to the individual mandate and I applaud the appeals court that struck it down. That one gesture on the part of republicans is the only meaningful thing that they have done and will have to be followed by ways to improve the health care legislation.
Simply put, because the republicans have been missing in action, and if no democrat challenges Barrack Obama, I will reluctantly vote for him again.
