While politicians talk bull people are dying and getting old as hell while they enjoy everything and talk about 10 and 20 yr plans,kiss my ass! I have been hearing this same shit for decades now the republiCONS tell us everything wrong in the black community is because of no fathers in home and liberal policies over the decades. Weren't reagan,bush,bush in offices for many of those years?

Everyday for years we hear how great they were and how trickle down saved the country. Where is the proof? They talk about fathers is the father in the home when assholes like Scarborough has three wives they marry get divorced are their children being raised by single mothers.

Eric Garner was a father in the home.Freddie had a father among others. What master plan so the republiCons have to put fathers in the homes. I thought they didn't interfere in peoples personal lives. Hypocritical,lying as mfkers!!!
