CHARLES M. BLOW ON GOP AGENDA, PART FOUR

Charles M. Blow's three articles on the GOP Agenda and evident racism  synthesize the ideologies of many GOP candidate hopefuls such as Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, and Ron Paul as leading signs of no concern for poor folks in America, with underlying facets of racism towards black people.  In his article "Newt's War on Poor Kids", Blow suggests that Gingrich's agenda doesn't concern the plight of the poor black kid in America, as they are a product of an unproductive society, therefore are a liability that shouldn't be dealt with.  Blow then reflects on the growing disparity between the poor and the rich in America, and the tall tale signs of a country in denial, including Republicans in power, that refuse to acknowledge the devastating poverty rampant in the streets of the United States.  Blow ends his trio of scathing editorials concerning the GOP agenda with a mark up of heinous statements made by Presidential hopefuls such as Gingrich, Santorum and Paul that all subject the black race to poor standards, and all insinuate that the black male lives for welfare while doing little to help his own situation.

Charles M. Blows next editorial in his scathing series against the GOP agenda concerns the "anti-black rhetoric" circulating throughout the party.  According to Blow, Presidential hopeful Rick Santorum suggested that he "want to make black people’s lives better by giving them somebody else’s money. I want to give them the opportunity to go out and earn the money.”  This remark was seen by Blow as one that is incredibly racist in theory, suggesting that the black population in the United States is asking and all need welfare.  Blow critiques the method of the GOP candidates as he dismisses the "false dichotomy of welfare checks vs. paychecks", as the vast majority of people in welfare systems either are too young or too old to work, or in fact do work.

Charles M. Blow, a columnist for the NYtimes, wrote an editorial concerning the income inequality and the inefficiency of political figures to solve the disparity in wealth.  Blow cites a gap between rich and poor as a critical sign of the America's need for a change in operation. "If denial is a river, it runs through doomed societies", says Blow.  He also critiques stance of the Republican Party and their ever growing disdain for the poor.

CHARLES M. BLOW ON GOP AGENDA

A columnist for  the NYtimes, Charles M. Blow's editorial on GOP candidate hopeful Newt Gingrich is a scathing one.  Charles M. Blow claims that Gingrich believes "that poor children don’t understand work unless they’re doing something illegal".  Blow also quotes Gingrich to saying that poor children don't work because everyone around them in surrounding areas also have a lazy work ethic.  Blow suggests underlying currents of racism in Gingrich's ideology as many of these "poor kids" he talks about come from suffocating ghettos.
