Emmy Award-winning actor James Woods had some harsh words for the President Friday.
Shortly after Barack Obama finished his address concerning race and the George Zimmerman verdict - which included comments about people locking their car doors when black men walk by - Woods tweeted, "The only reason people lock their car doors when Obama walks by is they are afraid he'll tax them to death":
Just curious. Does the President of the United States have any advice for other teenage boys in America? Wounded warriors, for example...

ALL youth of every heritage in this country would benefit from jobs and manageable student loans, NOT a bloated Welfare State

Woods continued his rant Saturday:
Racial integration has worked in the Armed Forces because everyone has a job, gets training in a skill, and MUST respect the rank of others

The race issues in America that have bedeviled this nation for decades could be greatly resolved with JOBS and EDUCATION and SKILLS TRAINING

Respect comes from personal industry and achievement. A common goal to rebuild the country, like the WPA and CCC, could do wonders.
