Re: [QUAD-L] Bush plays the game of being Christian
Still not judging here so I hope that people are not labeling me as judging. I stated the facts. I tried to do a search on the statistics on blacks and whites collecting government assistance to compare to the numbers that you pulled up, but came up empty handed so far so I will not speculate, but I think that we would be surprised. There are more whites in the population so that should mean that there would be far less blacks collecting, but I don't know what we would find if we got the statistics on what race is on government assistance.

However, if you consider the population at whole, is the African American percentage actually higher than whites on government programs? <>

Title: Re: [QUAD-L] Bush plays the game of being Christian You didn't. He replied to me and I had no mention or did anyone else about a minority receiving any more than anyone else.
