JON STEWART RIPS BARACK

14th March 2009

Now I love Barack and what he’s accomplished just like a next man. I told people when he won that he had a whole lot to work to do as a President and that it wasn’t going to be easy. And also we all need to remember he is a politician and pretty much all politicians are full of, well I’ll let Jon Stewart tell it.

THE COEN BROTHERS CLEAN COAL AD

26th February 2009

The Reality Campaign has released a new ad. They’re the folks behind the widely-played ad that featured a foreman in a hard hat taking viewers on a tour of a non-existent clean coal facility.

In this new ad directed by The Coen Brothers, a pitchman gives us the hard sell on a “Clean Coal Clean”-scented air freshener that works just as well as “clean coal.” Hilarious, yet real

BLACK HOME OWNERSHIP DOWN

As described in the paper, we may be seeing a historic loss wealth of black wealth that could continue into next year:

For most Americans, their home is their most important source of wealth. From 2000 to 2004, it appeared that African Americans were making progress in wealth-building. The home ownership rate for African Americans increased from 47.2% in 2000 to 49.1% in 2004. But this increase was short lived. In 2007, the black home ownership rate was back down to its 2000 level of 47.2%.

African Americans were disproportionately involved in the subprime mortgage market and those mortgages have had a high rate of foreclosures. Many subprime mortgages were made to refinance existing loans, and thus it is not only homes purchased during the housing bubble that are at risk.

Since the foreclosures have continued into 2008 and will likely continue into 2009, the African American home ownership rate is also likely to decline into 2009.

The impact of the housing crisis extends to African Americans who were not subprime borrowers. Home owners who merely live in communities with a high rate of foreclosures will likely see the value of their homes decline. High levels of foreclosures lead to increased vandalism and crime and declining tax revenues for communities. Renters who are renting a foreclosed property face possible eviction.

When one calculates the combined effect of all of these wealth-sapping factors, it is clear that we are witnessing a historic loss of wealth among African Americans.

OBAMA WATCH.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — President Obama on Tuesday came away from meetings with congressional Republicans about his economic stimulus plan saying he respects the “philosophical differences” between Republicans and Democrats, but hopes lawmakers can put politics aside. President Obama has pledged to work with Republicans on his economic stimulus package,

While the unusual meetings between a president of one party and rank-and-file members of the other were warmly received on both sides of the aisle, they ended with little promise of serious compromise or change on the core issue of how best to spark new economic growth.

The president met with House Republicans first to discuss his proposed $825 billion economic stimulus plan, and then met with the Senate GOP caucus.
