Created by M.H. on June 26, 2013

Ultra-Conservatives on the U.S. Supreme Court, led by Chief Justice Roberts, dealt a blow to minorities and the poor.

Although the USA has indeed come a long way with race relations all a person need to do is listen to Right-Wing Hate radio to see that much of the friendliness is because they are being watched by a Federal watchdog. For instance, in the 2008 election Rush Limbaugh liked to play the song Barrack the Magic Nigger. President Obama must act because the House of Representatives in jam-packed with alot of Tea Party Conservative activists.
