We have a winner folks for some brainheaded low blow comments of the month! And that winner is Governor David Patterson of New York. The accidental one. You know the one who was constitutionally mandated that position because his predecessor was engaging in some low blows himself with some hooker. Patterson is reaching for the long straw and appears to be using racism as the hand holding it. Even saying that President Obama will be the next target of the media. He claims that the media is controlling politics and that the people are getting nervous with minorities in power, especially when there is more than one. Claiming that he has been quiet for 17 months and that he has had to work twice as hard as others do, it is now time for him to speak out. "It came to a head", he said. Wait I thought that's what Spitzer said!
I just want to say, "Governor just because your black doesn't make you a lone minority. Many, many minorities are struggling right now and for that matter so are a lot of Governors who are not minority." Life is a struggle most of the time. And right now times are tough. Our cars are considered 'clunkers' and we should buy new ones. Unemployment is at nearly an all time high, businesses are shutting down, ghost towns are popping up, suicide is increasing, people are turning to drugs/alcohol, children are going hungry, and all this is occurring to white, black, Asian, Hispanic and cats and dogs. So don't play the race card to benefit your selfish desires. You haven't lost anything yet and your only making it harder on yourself to reach and further your goals. People elected Obama not because of his skin color, we didn't care whether He is black or white. We want to believe He can and will make a difference and pull us out of this war were in. Not only in other countries but the war we fight here in America everyday to survive. People want you to succeed, they truly want those in charge of our nation to help us all succeed. Stop making excuses and strive forward. Your not the only one with a disability. Your not the only one who has different skin color. Though you are one of the few of us who has been given an opportunity to help make changes, don't lose that with comments that remain and keep things the same.
