There are many scandals with the Barack Obama administration, but perhaps the most scandalous thing has been just how poorly black Americans have fared under their favorite president. I would go further: If the level of black unemployment had risen to these heights under a white Republican president, the NAACP and the NY Times would have claimed that what was happening was a deliberate and racist action. Obama, however, gets a free ride.
The NY Times, however, has discovered the real reason for high black unemployment rates: social networking by whites. Yes, these people are serious. Sooner or later, someone will try to make such networking illegal because of its “discriminatory” effects.
