Ever hear about "Pigford vs Glickman"???

[Uncle Bill]

Well, hyar ya go. Just gotta love it when this "racial" garbage keeps biting the crowd that claims to be so non-racial and into bringing us all together. What a joke. When you libs put a front for the gangster-driven Chicago thugs into the oval office, this is what becomes of your taxes.

I tried to ‘Snopes’ this 3 different ways and got nothing. Knowing that
Snopes is a left leaning site I assume they are ignoring this issue
because it doesn't fit into the "politically correct" scheme of things…

"Pigford v. Glickman"

-claims-from-39,697-total-farmers/


"In 1997, 400 African-American farmers sued the United States Department
of Agriculture, alleging that they had been unfairly denied USDA loans
due to racial discrimination during the period
1983 to
1997." The case was entitled "Pigford v. Glickman" and in 1999,
the black farmers won their case. The government agreed to pay each of
them as much as $50,000 to settle their claims.

But then on February 23 of this year, something shocking happened in
relation to that original judgment. In total silence, the USDA agreed
to release more funds to "Pigford". The amount was a staggering $1.25
billion. This was because the original number of plaintiffs - 400 black
farmers - had now swollen in a class action suit to include a total of
86,000 black farmers throughout America .

There was only one teensy problem. The United States of America doesn't
have 86,000 black farmers. According to accurate and totally verified
census data, the total number of black farmers throughout America is
only 39,697.


Oops.

Well, gosh - how on earth did 39,697 explode into 86,000 claims? And how
did $50,000 explode into $1.25 billion? Well, folks, you'll just have
to ask the woman who not only spearheaded this case because of her
position in 1997 at the "Rural Development Leadership Network"
but whose family received the highest single payout (approximately
$13 million) from that action - Shirley Sherrod. Oops again.

Yes, folks. It appears that Ms. Sherrod had just unwittingly exposed
herself as the perpetrator of one of the biggest fraud claims in the
United States - a fraud enabled solely because she screamed racism at
the government and cowed them into submission. And it gets even more
interesting. Ms. Sherrod has also exposed the person who aided and
abetted her in this race fraud. As it turns out, the original judgment
of "Pigford v. Glickman" in 1999 only applied to a total of 16,000 black
farmers. But in 2008, a junior Senator got a law passed to reopen the
case and allow more black farmers to sue for
funds.
The Senator was Barack Obama.

Because this law was passed in dead silence and because the woman
responsible for spearheading it was an obscure USDA official, American
taxpayers did not realize that they had just been forced in the midst of
a worldwide depression to pay out more than $1.25 billion to settle a
race claim.

Uncle Bill,
we discussed this at length not too long ago...... i think Yardley ran out of breath, or developed carpal tunnel defending the "black farmers". Ill see if I can find the thread. What a crock...... I think this POTUS just runs around looking for backs to scratch. He has no balls to address anything here at home. At least not directly. Obama is a disgrace to this country.

[troy schwab]

oh... and btw, we just finished paying these jerks off with that last piece of legislation that jackass passed. Makes me sick.

[luvmylabs23139]

This is just the tip of the iceberg of "reperations BUMMA wants" He will use any means to steal money from hard working Americans and give it to the lay around ""oh pityme black welfare slime"
He can go to you know where and take his redisribution junk with him.

Pat Buchanan had the guts to say it.It is about time.



BUCHANAN TO OBAMA



By Patrick J. Buchanan



Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America . Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation.. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to.... This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard. And among them are these:



First, America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known.. Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.


Second, no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the ' 60s on welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American community into the mainstream. Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination against white folks -- with affirmative action, contract set-asides and quotas -- to advance black applicants over white applicants. Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America have donated their time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education, day care, retirement and nursing homes for blacks.


We hear the grievances.


Where is the gratitude??


Barack talks about new 'ladders of opportunity' for blacks. Let him go to Altoona ? And Johnstown , and ask the white kids in Catholic schools how many were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing out scholarships for 'deserving' white kids...? Is white America really responsible for the fact that the crime and incarceration rates for African-Americans are seven times those of white America ? Is it really white America 's fault that illegitimacy in the African-American community has hit 70 percent and the black dropout rate from high schools in some cities has reached 50 percent?
Is that the fault of white America or, first and foremost, a failure of the black community itself?
As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime, and especially interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware that while white criminals choose black victims 3 percent of the time, black criminals choose white victims 45 percent of the time?
Is Barack aware that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the reverse, that black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first three years of this decade as the reverse?
We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al about Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena. And all turned out to be hoaxes. But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are real, we hear nothing.


Sorry, Barack, some of us have heard it all before,
about 40 years and 40 trillion tax dollars ago.
