Obama Disses Paterson: Beware the Negro In Sheep’s Clothing

So word on the street is there’s blood in the water. Obama wants New York Governor David Paterson to not seek reelection. Interesting. Some speculate it has to do with his bungling over appointing, er not appointing Caroline Kennedy to the Senate seat vacated by Hillary Clinton. Hmm – who cares? The economy is still [...]

Kanye Didn’t Give the Most Infamous Outburst on MTV

By now I’m certain enough people have heard about Kanye West’s hijacking of Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech. He’d been drinking and used his male privilege to assert his opinion about why Swift’s video for “You Belong With Me” wasn’t as good as Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”. Considering the fact she did a virtual recreation of Bob [...]

Jimmy Carter Says It’s the Racism – Obama Says Hold Up

“I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African American,” Carter said.

Well thanks a lot former president Jimmy Carter. Thanks for making perfect sense. Now look what you’ve done. Your one statement could [...]

My Healthcare Shouldn’t Cost $700 Per Month!

I spoke on the national public affairs show, The Takeway yesterday in anticipation of Obama’s address to Congress and the nation. I have many misgivings about this plan because first and foremost it leaves the insurance companies as recipients of our money. What exactly does a subsidized health care plan mean? I discussed that [...]

The Waning Political Clout of Blacks in America Will Be A Disaster For the Unprepared

The majority of the pre and post Civil Rights beneficiaries who currently hold office are in their 60′s-70′s. They’ve been so ham-fisted about holding onto that itty bitty political clout there has been no training of successors. Think of Stephanie Tubbs-Jones dying suddenly as an example of the lack of preparation. These men and women [...]

Will Obama’s Lack Of Fortitude Seal His Lame Duck 1-Term Presidency?

I’ve just read your Op-Ed in the New York Times. Barack, Barack, Barack. I had so much hope for serious change. The demographic of the NYT tends to not include those without internet access, lower incomes and less education – the ones who really need the health care plan passed. So who were you trying [...]

Does The Sonia Sotomayor Confirmation Fill A Quota?

I know many people are very pleased with the “successful” confirmation of now Justice Sotomayor. It does have a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? Out of 111 Justices, she is the third woman and first Latino to be appointed. The Republicans continue to live up to their surly, childish ways with nearly 2/3rds voting [...]

With All the Positive Press for Hill & Bill Are We Sure Clinton Won’t Run in 2012?

When Bill Clinton went to North Korea to meet with Kim Jong-il was that a sign of what’s to come? He was successful in getting journalists Euna Lee and Laura Ling released. Did that seem a little easy at the end? A photo op and a declaration of “defeat” so North Korea would be “victorious”? [...]

Laura & Euna Are Free! Is This A Rise From the Ashes Moment For the Clintons?

Kim Jong II has pardoned journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee. Former President Clinton flew to North Korea to negotiate visit with the North Korean leader. I am certain their families are very relieved – and grateful. What I am even more curious about is what was promised to secure their release and why [...]

Remember When I Said The Democrats Would Bring Obama Down? Maxine Waters Calls Out Rahm Emanuel & Blue Dogs.

This was an interview from a few days ago but since it’s regarding our healthcare plan it is still current. Maxine Waters was interviewed by Carlos Watson of MSNBC where she very clearly lays out the nefarious activities of Rahm Emanuel. He recruited a very active minority of “Conservative” Democrats referred to as Blue Dogs. [...]
