Actually, I thought the congressmen were picking on criminals. But Mother Jones says they are black criminals even though all the criminals, no matter their color, will be equally cut off.
Can you imagine the uproar if that article were posted on the American Spectator or by the Family Research Council? Liberals typically attack conservatives as racists for opposing any socialist policy advanced by our black president. Any act by a conservative is racist. Hence, when conservatives vote to make murderers, rapists, and pedophiles (of any color) ineligible for food stamps, we all know that Congress is really using "murderer's, rapists, and pedophiles" as code words for blacks.
Yikes? Talk about a systemic attitude of racism!
But then it's Democrat policies that destroyed many black families replacing fathers with Uncle Sam Sugar Daddy who herded his families into subsidized housing projects to keep them corralled. As Star Parker said in a column recently:
It’s no accident that trillions of dollars in government programs have had zero impact on black poverty. But black single parent homes and out-of-wedlock births have tripled since the War on Poverty began in 1965.
