I'm not black, but I can point out a few obvious holes in your argument.
1) The 'gay agenda' is basically treat gays as people, without discrimination. Gays aren't any particular harm to blacks, but bigots are.
2) Most blacks, like most whites will get a tax cut under Obama, but not McCain. If you are pulling in more than $250,000 good for you, but don't expect that many to worry about your higher taxes.
3) Putting money into the hands of people who will spend most or all of it, as Obama's plan will do, will stimulate the economy far more than in the hands of people who are not spending it.
4) Obama's call for increasing the minimum wage, will boost more than just the very lowest wages, stimulating the economy (see #3), and getting people off welfare.
5) Obama's health care plan has a better chance of getting passed and covering people. McCain's plan that includes taxing employer paid health insurance is likely to cost many people more than the health tax rebate he proposes.
6) The best way to reduce abortions is by improving the economy and by giving kids a comprehensive sex ed (how's that abstinence only thing working for you Bristol Palin?)


Tex, if the Packers o-line would open up as many holes as are in your arguments, Grant, Jackson and Lumking would each get 200 yards a game.
