    It’s time for us to just stand tall and tell “certain” people that we are not at fault, never were and never will be at fault. The fact of the matter, in my family’s case, is that I could very easily recount the treatment of my Irish ancestors but to what end? Will other cultures pay reparation for that treatment? I hope to heck not. We as conservatives have to get a backbone and fight for progress, not to regress to the 50’s and 40’s . When this racist garbage is spouted we need to vocally refute it. I’m tired of being “afraid”.

    They were demanding that officials at all levels stop the demolition in order to give Congress time to investigate charges of corruption against Housing and Urban Development Secretary Alfonso Jackson.

    I’m impressed. They want corruption investigated? I guess just not their own fraud, waste, and abuse. Entitlements are not corruption.

    It’s her warped way of trying to feel important. She lives off of the working class’s money, and, in her fantasy, thinks that’s acceptable. So with nothing to do, and no money for beer, she’s out joining whatever cause happens to be around that is PC. A truly sick person, who needs help.

    Pastor Wright has an 8,000+ following throwing untold funds and snappy frocks his way.

    I’ve heard too many people that are on welfare say that they are owed by the government. Most of these
    are black. They say that if they had never been brought here as slaves, they would be happy in Africa.
    I have tried to tell “them” that, in the 1st place, “they”
    were not slaves and in the 2nd place, “they” would not
    be happy in Africa because, if they managed to be born, considering all of the circumstances that had to
    be, for them to be born in the 1st place, would not have happened had their ancestors never left Africa,
    and that if “they” lived in Africa, they would probably be the victims of genocide, the U.N., Aids,
    or famine. So count your blessings and get a job!
    The reverends and others, such as Obama’s preacher have convinced these people(& others who
    think we are all saps for working and supporting
    them{nonblacks}), that they do not have to work
    because “us middle class people that are too stupid
    to elect politicians that would do something about
    all of the welfare fraud”, will support them with our
    tax money.

    Multi-Generational Welfare and Free/lowrent housing isn’t a Safety net. It’s an inherited right in many apathetic, parasite mindsets. Like the majority of what came out of the 9th ward in New Orleans.

    Is she protesting because her 60″ TV isn’t High Def? Does she need me, a tax payer, to pay for her a new, larger place for her new, 100″ High Def TV, for which my tax dollars are also paying?
    And that she’s only driving a Buick, not a Cadillac?

    I would like to remind those who are interested, white people did not sell black people into slavery, black people did. I would gladly endorce reparations to former slaves, unfortunately the last one died years ago. Others who claim being owed reparation? OK but it goes with restoration. You must use the funds to return to the African nation of your choice. My ancestors were not slave holders they were Eurpean peasants, which ment they were little more than slaves themselves. I am purely tired of this victim mentality. If you were born in this country and you cannot make it here, you can’t make it anywhere. This is the land of opportunity, not entitlement.

    Sorry about that… I actually had an Instalanche last month that generated less traffic than this Malkalanche has. It’s going to a cached page right now which means that any comments you leave won’t be displayed for a day or so until I take the page back to the live version.

    But do feel free to drop by now that the problem is resolved - beyond the news article there are photos of the new housing that Jasper objects to and links to other pertinent details, like the fact that project dwellers were actually suing the federal government before Katrina because living conditions were so bad! Simply unbelievable….

    new law…

    when you go on public assistance you have to temporarily give up your right to vote.

    if you live on it for more than 2 years you give it up…

    FOREVER.

    this should solve this problem pretty quickly. we need to disallow these people 1) a candidate that will pander to them and 2) the ability to have any power to sway candidates.

    Actually, the more i think about it, the more I like it.

    My mistake - “Kawana” must mean “charming young lady”…

    Update

    Kawana Jasper was arrested, along with her mother, Sharon Jasper, and longtime protester Jay Arena. Arena and the elder Jasper were charged with crossing a police cordon. Kawana Jasper spat on a construction worker, an action that qualifies as battery, according to NOPD spokesman Sgt. Joe Narcisse, who said officers had no problem with protest as long as it remained peaceful.

    There is a group of “gonna be” new citizens right now
    that want to sue Pres Bush because they want to be
    sworn in in time to register to vote. Since the Clintons
    pulled a number similar to this when he ran for
    reelection, I wonder who put this idea into these peoples heads and how did they get (all) together to do this as a group?
    We know the dimms seem to have a lock on the poor

    Another thing that gets me about reparations, entitlements and African-American anger is the fact that MY ancestors fought in a civil war to grant YOUR ancestors their freedom. If not for MY white ancestors whom, you claim, were bigots and slave-owners, your ancestors’ decendants (i.e., YOU) might still be slaves. Now, to what reparations do you suppose I am entitled?

    I work my tail off and can’t afford a 60″ TV. Nice to see my tax dollars are well spent giving people who won’t work the nice things I can’t afford to save up for.

    I will be surprised if I can afford to retire when I turn 70, this POS will be sitting fat dumb and happy with my taxpayer funded checks coming in.

    She has three grandchildren (courtesy of Kawana) that I’m aware of… no idea if Kawana married, but she does use the last name “Jasper” which is her maiden name.

    Kawana is on the dole at least to the extent of housing - I’ve read that in other articles.

    (FYI, it’s not my intent to stalk the Jaspers - as a former welfare recipient I’m interested in the public housing controversy and they’re the ones who put themselves front and center on CNN and other media outlets.)

    I’ll take that bet - even leftie locals who want the projects to stay open complain about them, how they’re making the “cause” look bad, and when Kawana was on CNN, it went very poorly.

    The DNC likes photogenic, appealing shills like that Graham kid. Plus, they’re probably catching on that they need to vet their poster children a little better.

    Second, (after DNA testing) the father of said child (ID’ed through the criminal justice system) pays the state for the child’s upkeep, or starts digging ditches for the state.

    Nice work, LauraC.

    I frankly find the whole thing simply tragic as yet another generation in that household will fall into the pit that is government assistance. Rugged individualism simply doesn’t exist in some quarters.

    I have no problem with helping people when they are down, but I’d rather see the Feds outsource that kind of thing to local communities without the taxpayers’ dime getting in the mix. Here is an idea - more money in people’s pockets would probably result in more people being capable of giving to the charities of their choice.

    I’ll be here all week. Don’t forget the tip jar.

    We can lower our national debt by doing away with most of the welfare the govt. dishes out.

    Then taxes don’t have to go up to pay for someone like this to have her fancy TV. Keep the taxes low for the middle class please and get these people off their tush and out working.

    Really….does she have a job? If not…why not? Oh, that’s right. She don’t need no job, she’s got us to work for her.

    I used to get mad at jerks like this woman than I started thinking about every day she wakes up and decides to be angry and miserable. What a pathetic life. Think about it. When she is in the hospital getting her last bit of free governmental health care, she will have to look back at her life and realize all she did was take up space and air. No contributions to the world, nothing to remember her by, nothing. She was dust before she was dust, so I don’t waste any more time than it took to write this to even think about her. That’s it, I’m done.
