Face it Archie some people don't care! They for some reason think they are owed! Nobody is owed anything that they didn't work for except our nation's kids! I spent 13 years in the Army and afterwards spent 20 years working with kids in the intercity! Now I'm disable so i worked for mine!I feel if we can reach out to our youth we can bring about a change in attitude I sure tried but it's going to take more than me! Kids I worked with are willing to do it we just have to get them out of that cycle and let them compete on and even playing field (by the way their is nothing wrong with working at Mc Donalds at a decent wage) wish like hell I could work at Mc Donalds to supplement my income but I can't im really ill! But what can I say everybody doesn't feel the way I do, to bad!

Don't take away from the kids i'm pretty sure we all agree with that, we also agree about people (adults) taking advantage of the system should be stopped and if possible put in jail, but lets face it no matter what you do your going to have people taking advantage! I personally know people write now that brag about taking advantage of the system as far as disability, and i also know the longer you give free stuff to people they are going to take advantage! But I feel drug testing isn't the right answer! Maybe if there were better insensitives to get off welfare there might be a change! (Higher minimum wage)it might not make a difference to some critics but if you can send money overseas to build schools and roads and arm foreign armies you can say let's fix our problems first! I know that sounds selfish and mean but that is how i feel!

So what would happen to the children if you take welfare from the parent,would they be taken and given to the state? Would they be given to relatives who would then have to apply for assistance! So the cycle never ends! I think some people sometimes don't really think these things thru! Like I said the only real victims here are the children! A drug addict without help is always going to get their drugs!

Fine add the drug testing to include workmens comp,ssi,disability as well! Hell don't stop there drug test parents who use head start too!The point is where do you draw the line? The problem is who ends up suffering? The kids? The middle class? Im not even mentioning the poor it seems the only time government even thinks about them is when their is talk of down sizing their safety net!Anybody besides me in here ever worked with 5 thru 10 year olds and you couldn't eat your lunch in front of them because they were starving and always begging for your food! Bottom line i could care less about drug test or politicians trying to satisfy their base!

Fox news just reported that a major league baseball player is complaining he was left off the National baseball hall of fame list because he was a republican! I mean you have got to be kidding! And that's journalism?

Fox news is a joke! Always complaining about main stream media being bias,well if Fox was so concerned about mainstream media bias start a mainstream media news network! Oh wait they can't the FCC wont allow all the lies! Some of you guys that rely solo on Fox news for your news source need to break out of the bubble and see what really is happening in politics and the world!

Ist off NCOs are not platoon leaders! I was in the Army myself as a platoon sgt! Yes I had friends of all races but there was still r****m! I to have a college degree! I spent the next 20 years working a after school program for economically disadvantaged youth ages 6-14 and yes I still saw r****m! I am a proud and intelligent Afro American male and could care less about r**ting are anything that doesn't really don't solve a problem! I could give you examples of r****m in America that happened to me that was clearly r****t probably illegal! And for you people that say we should go back to Africa 1st i can't go back to a place I've never been! And 2nd of all your four fathers brought black people over here in chains against there will so deal with it!

Remember we here in the United States went thru a bad time in in our history that lasted longer than 50 years (it was called s***ery) We managed to change, why not give the people on the island a chance to do the same thing?

I agree with President on his decision! Reason being it brings the Cuban people on the island some hope for change,and the only people disagreeing with his decision are disagreeing safely from the United States and not on the island! I feel they are as stubborn as Castro himself! It's the right idea to change the minds of the youth on the island because they are the future! Castro brothers will not be around for another 50 years! Which is the length of time it's been with the old policies!

They didn't take my vitals so thats why their chief gave them a letter of reprimand! I was pissed and told the chief I don't care if I go to the hospital everyday to the ER it's not up to me what kind of medication I receive it's up to the doctor and that what the paramedics did was wrong and that I don't do drugs! He asked me if I still live at my current address I guess they could tell where I was calling from over their computer (I said yes,and to make it worse I still received a bill in the mail! I know it sounds impossible but im not telling a lie,I have know reason to lie or even tell anyone what happened to me but the chief (who I don't know) but I thought better examples other than the ones the First Couple gave should be heard!

For you people that think r****m doesn't exist i am an African-American male that spent 13 years in the military and then got my college degree. After the military I spent the last 20 years as a youth counselor and retired with disability. Last month I called an ambulance at 3am because I was in extreme pain I knew I had a fractured spine as well as 3 abdominal hernias but in the state of Florida it's hard to get pain medication I had been trying for 2 weeks! I was in so much pain I was close to passing out, thats exactly what I told the perimedics and that I was having some chest pain! Their response was we want get involved with your drug habit! They never took my vitals or anything, they just dropped me off at the ER and left! I guess they assumed because I was black and it was 3 in the morning I was out looking for drugs! I called their chief and he said he would write them a letter of reprimand! I told him it should never have gotten that far! If I was having a heart attack I would have been dead! I ended up staying in the hospital for 4 days! I know for the most part we put ourselves in some situations, but how did I put myself in that situation?

The problem is for some reason white America think Al Sharpton is the leader in the black community! I choose whom i decided to be led by not the media! To me he is no more a leader to my values than Rush Limbaugh or Ann coulter is to w***e A******ns! By the way Ann Coulter said our b****s are better than their b****s! WTF is that are black people dogs? It's really getting old to see people that all black people do stuff like what you saw on tv! Cant you people see this r**t had nothing to do with Michael Brown! I personally couldn't give a s**t about Michael Brown, can't you people see the media is milking this incident for all the dollars they can get! Before a couple of months ago nobody ever heard of Ferguson! And to tell the t***h i never want to here about it again!

The only thing you know about black people is what you see on Fox news!As an Afro American i take offense to people that make a stero type blanket bigoted statement about me or my race!Personally i didn't give a s**t about ferguson nor the verdict! Do you really think that there were only Afo Americans in that r**t? Do you really think black people are the only race that receive welfare? Do you really think black people are the only race that r**t? There is a difference between a protest and a r**t don't for one minute think there isn't a thin line between the two! R****rs could give a dam about a cause and know no reason not to commit civil unrest and l**t and burn stores and for some to get their agendas seen and heard! That is why if the media didn't cover it so much and let the police do their jobs handling the r****rs forcefully and separate the tru protesters! Do you i***ts really think all this unrest was really caused by a big black bullying thug? I didn't and don't watch anything about Ferguson and can see that! It's also about some people like Al Sharpton,Ann Coulter,Jesse Jackson, Russ( cant spell his last name,limbach or what ever his last name, you know who iam talking about) Your just strocking there ego and padding there pockets! Even though i keep current with politics not with race batters! In closing not every black man r**ts when a another black man is k**led by a white police officer! Thank You!
