When Bush left office there were 30,000 troops in Afghanistan. We\u2019re now going to a hundred thousand, so we kind of own the Afghanistan mission. We bailed out the banks. We kind of own a plan now where you have more foreclosures than you do have modifications. We\u2019re losing jobs by the droves. Unemployment levels are disastrously high. We are the canary in the mine. We\u2019re on the front side of its pain and the backside of its prosperity. Urban America is black, but Appalachia basically is white. We must not be seen as marginal America.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I\u2019ll tell you what\u2019s going on here with this. The Reverend Jackson &#8212; and I got two more stories in the stack today about how black unemployment is through the roof, black unemployment is terrible, the black frame of mind is terrible, they\u2019re depressed, Obama is not doing anything for them. How is that Hoax and Change working for you? They\u2019re all livid. I mean they thought there was going to be an exact 180 degree economic reversal and it\u2019s done nothing but get bad for everybody, but they\u2019re especially upset about it because they look at him as one of them and now they feel abandoned. I\u2019m sure Tiger Woods\u2019 choice of females is not helping \u2019em out with their attitudes there, either. Folks, about that, I got a great piece to share with you from Lisa Schiffren at the AmericanThinker.com on the parallels between Tiger Woods and Barack Obama. The theme is that both are the result of lies, falsely crafted images that are in no way representative of who they really are. I\u2019ll get to that in a mere moment. <\/p>\n<p>One more sound bite here from Reverend Jackson. Oh, and there\u2019s total disarray over in Copenhagen, something called the Danish texts. Poor nations have found out they\u2019re going to get screwed with the climate talks over there. Oh, yeah, it\u2019s big. And then Dingy Harry is out there with his slavery comment. I don\u2019t know, folks. I have faith in all things good, and this stuff just cannot triumph, at the end of the day it just won\u2019t. This is utter disaster. Anyway, back to the Reverend Jackson, Tavis Smiley said, &#8216;How do black leaders, how do black folk, how do black people make that case to the president? In other words, how do you push back on him respectfully when you know that black folk in the 90th percentile love this president?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>JACKSON: They also love to keep their houses and they also love their jobs. So the issue is about policy. It\u2019s not about our appreciation of the impact of this presidency. We found through the attorney generals that these major banks profiled blacks and Latinos. They circumvented community reinvestment laws. As opposed to getting a bailout, they should be facing the courts for breaking the law. On the black and brown side is where the water came in the boat. But the water didn\u2019t stop. It kept on coming, the water kept coming across. A rising tide will not lift those boats stuck at the bottom that have holes in them.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: So there\u2019s trouble in paradise out there. The Reverend Jackson, his anger is pretty muted here but he\u2019s pretty mad. (interruption) What is it, Snerdley? What is it? Hm-hm. Hm-hm. Well, no, he said it\u2019s about skin color thing, but, look, the bottom line is, all of this was supposed to have vanished. We were supposed to have a postracial country. Look at the divisions that have sprung up. Look at the partisanship, the divide has gotten wider. The Reverend Jackson is not happy at all, and all of it was so predictable. Look, I\u2019m a little long. I gotta take a quick break and we\u2019ll come back, we have more samples of Obama\u2019s Hoax and Change speech at Brookings today plus a damn good Stack of Stuff to get through, so sit tight. We\u2019ll be right back.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: The Reverend Jackson is not happy about this.
