But today Gateway Pundit reveals that the person to whom the $48 billion would go is his friend, the owner of a day car run out of his home.
Is there no end? Is there no low low enough?
Why don't they just call it reparations and be done with it? Or are we going to have to worry that, until this bunch is out of office altogether, including Obama, every time you turn around, they'll be in your coat packet, sneaking more money in the name of "equality."

Now get this…
The $48 billion would go to Cleaver’s friend, a gentleman named Lamar Mickens, president of the not-for-profit Quality Day Campus who runs the organization out of his Kansas City home.The Southeast Missourian reported:
On or around December 15th 2010 an article was posted on several blog sites concerning a congressional earmark request for $48 billion dollars to fund an initiative called the War On Poverty. An initiative conceived by our organization, Quality Day Campus Inc., but was utilized ( our assumption) by a “band of media groups” to create and circulate a vicious smear campaign against Congressman Emanuel Cleaver.
ReplyDeleteA campaign-(smear) that also angered and outraged many over blog sites as well as caused damage to the creditability to our organization and possibly damaged the potential support that could have been gardened for the initiative, had these individuals responsible had taken professional care in researching the truth concerning our efforts, the involvement of the congressman’s office and caused further distrust between the American people, political officials and the private sector, namely organizations, such as ours.
Our intent for submitting these appropriations request annually was to bring to the attention of the congressional subcommittees our request as well as congress in the hopes that they (congress or congressional subcommittees) would consider our alternative measure for support. We (our organization) is trying to stop government from the corrupt practices of wrongful spending / mismanagement. Its time the American people take back control of their government and not at the expense of a few naysayer’s running amuck in the media community making trouble with lies, falsehood and innuendoes…
However, in light of these events surrounding the congressman as a result of a willful misguided few, I can only hope that their efforts at sabotage have not truly hurt our right and freedom of “expression.” One that has caused no harm to anyone, nor infringed upon any rights or civil liberties. The same cannot be said for those who masterminded and partook in these shameful acts--that I can only surmise as selfish and grossly negligent.
A negligence that I must now call upon the honest and decent American people to discover for themselves to witness by visiting these sites and seeing first hand for themselves at the depth and callousness through the responses by citizens that these blogs triggered. From racially charged slurs and innuendoes to others too dire for me to mention.
Our organization feels that there should be some sort of formal inquiry as to ascertain whether this was a staged and or deliberate attack politically, aimed at Congressman Cleaver, the CBC-(which was named in one blogger’s comment) or our organization for proposing such a request.
Or was it possibly “racially charged” due in part to the fact that members of our organization as well as Congressman Cleaver ourselves are minorities. We hope that there is an investigation into the matter in order to ascertain if this was an act by an individual or group acting out in malice politically, organizationally or racially. Time will tell…
Our organization has already started talks with two of the online media sources responsible for these slanderous attacks. We have asked the following conditions and if these conditions are not met, we will be pursuing legal action against them and others that we uncover in our investigative wake.
