Let me just lay my cards out on the table and be rather blunt: I haven’t agreed with everything Rev. Dr. Jeremiah Wright has said over the past few years. Actually, for me the biggest aught I had with him was how he hand-picked his successor following his retirement. It was my understanding that since […]
Read more "For The Last Time He’s a Pastor and Not a Politician"I always thought this was an interesting topic. I firmly remember standing in a dorm room down the hall fall of 2003 as the country was gearing up for the state primary races and caucuses from 2004 and me and this other dude who was a supreme know-it-all (and I really want to use another […]
Read more "Why Did Blacks Vote for George W. in 2004?"I’ve been being rude for this year and a half I’ve had this blog. I’ve only met you meet the uppity Negro and have neglected to fully introduce you all to the other two. I disagreed with some of Sigmund Freud’s writings when I read his main book back in high school for this class at […]
Read more "It’s Time To Meet All Three of Us"I still haven’t figured out the proper definition of “reverse racism.” Wouldn’t “reverse racism” still be considered racism? Moreover, as Keith Olbermann has done so over the past few nights with acute hilarity that the same Right-wing talking heads of Karl Rove and Newt Gingrich were claiming that current Justice Samuel Alito was the victim of […]
Read more "It’s Time To Be Vigilant: Missing White Woman Syndrome Is Real"Now it sounded good when the name Leah Ward Sears was being thrown around for a possible nomination as Supreme Court Justice to replace retiring Justice David Souter, but I must say that I am definitely proud to see Sonia Sotomayor receive the nomination from the current President toward the Supreme Court of the United States. […]
Read more "Sharing The Wealth of Nations: Judge Sonia Sotomayor as First Latina to be Nominated to SCOTUS"Okay, first things first. I just arrived back from Atlanta, Georgia where I finished the semester with a friggin B-average. Aint figured that one out yet. I mean, I’ve dealt with crazy professors, but I had one that handed out grades before we took our finals. She gave everyone in the class a B+ and […]
Read more "A Lot Going On"One of the random misconceptions that most liberals won’t let you get away with is the idea of “freedom.” Sadly, it has been in the history of Africans living here in the diaspora of North America learning that freedom, is in fact not free. It always costs something. Stephen King at the end of his […]
Read more "I Have Something To Say: an Uppity View on Miss USA and Perez Hilton"…or maybe his cohones decided to drop ever since they had shrunk from when Jesse Jackson had threatened to castrate President Barack Obama. Or maybe he just passed the buck–as usual. At least in the public eye, so far, the most decisive decision (I know that’s redundant) that Obama has done since being in office has […]
Read more "Obama Discovers Some Intestinal Fortitude; Leaves door open for Prosecution for Torture under the Bush administration"I lied. I had promised myself I was done with the TeaBagging and what not and the foolishness that it was. But alas, I lied. Fellow blogging dude over at AverageBro gave me an idea for a post. I’m not sure if he realised he put his foot on the gas, but he brought […]
Read more "Missed Opportunity"Governor Rick “Good Hair” Perry of Texas made the news. It was all over the networks. Big whoop. We all knew that it was a publicity stunt as one of the commenters noted as well. Another commenter forwarded this story to me, one that kind of slipped under the radar. Here check it out: It […]
