Things you just shouldnt say out loud
I shook my head when i read this

so this cat Rick Santorum had this to say.
Number one, I think it's great that the president has a date night with his wife. He's a role model. He's a role model in particular, whether he likes it or not, in the African-American community.
And you have an African-American community, particularly in the poor inner city areas, we're looking at out of wedlock birthrates in three quarters to 75 percent (sic) of children being born out of wedlock. Marriage is an institution that's a bridge too far for too many African-American woman and is not desirable among African-American males.
I know this doesn't need explaining, but just for fun: Here Santorum taps into centuries-old stereotypes that paint black men as sexually deviant and irresponsible, and hence to blame for the existence of the black underclass (as opposed to blatant as well as structural racism, the lack of support for all poor people and families, a legacy of violence and discrimination, etc. etc.)
*end*
Its cool that President Obama went out on the date. Timing kinda sucks because in the current economic situation using tax money probably wasnt te best idea but he did foot some of the cash. but that neither here nor there.
This fool Rick Santorum characterizes all black people as anti marriage. People are just really really out of touch. Dude didnt even think about what he was saying. We have got get these people out of office.
