If i said 'in my community 75% of people in jail are mexicans' (which they aren't i just made that up) then would you say that without a doubt im a mexican hater? he just used african americans as an example because they had one of the higher percentages. One comment doesn't make someone racist. oh and joey? i think this board was about what he said, not what his religion is. so before you judge someones religion, take the time to learn a little bit about it before you judge someone about it. Seriously, mormons aren't as freaky as you think.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('23277','Lindsey'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('23277','Lindsey','Hey jason- i love how when mitt says one bad comment about african americans, you say that he\'s without a doubt a black hater.

I'm not a Mitt fan. That being said, the problems I see in children stem largely from lack of strong parents, a society that promotes values, not virtues, and one where an adult's momentary happiness (whatever that means) is more important than the stability of children, family and society. The biggest regrets in my life are the times when I wasn't the best parent my children needed me to be. It is the times I was so wrapped up in my personal dramas, both real and imagined that my children weren't first. When I was a kid, at least half the homes on my block had one parent home and they weren't shy about telling any of the kids to shape up. We had a mixture of all races and all backgrounds, but seemed to all share a common understanding of what kids should and shouldn't do. Do we see that now? What I do see is that for whatever reason (forgive me for saying this, but militant feminism seems one of the causes) men are often treated as if they are an accessory, not a necessity. Why should a man stick around and do the right thing by his family and his kids if he is not honored for his contribution? Why stay if, when times are hard and he cannot find a good job, the welfare system will only help his family if he's gone? Do kids need men to be men? Absolutely. Men have many admirable qualities that in the best scenario are good for children. Can children turn out well without men when necessary? Yes. But it is better for them to be raised by good men and women who value each other for their strengths and weaknesses and compliment each other. Anyway, back to Mitt. How do any of these candidates properly address complex issues in mere minutes? You cannot, but we don't listen to long drawn-out debates or carefully crafted arguments and ideas. It must be in sound-bites.

Um, should we order them from Amazon?'); return false;">Quote</a></div> Mitt Romney is a privileged, clumsy doofus, but I didn’t see much that was offensive. If he was better spoken, the root of what he said was actually quite real and thoughtful and could be applied to almost any community in this country. More solid upbringing, better schools.

However, he gets way off track. Why does he start talking about Bill Cosby and sex offender’s photographs? Has nothing to do with inner city crime. He’s obviously uncomfortable talking about black issues, and so he trips on his own tongue.

And, I like this, “How?? Get more moms and dads!” Oooooooooookay. Um, should we order them from Amazon?
