The government secretly declared war on the poor. There is a new KKK which is getting stronger every second. From Jena Six, Megan Williams, Malik Thomas, Imus and the Rutgers far from feminine basketball squad, it's clear that race in America is an issue that needs to be addressed. Despite all of this, blacks still fail to see the need to come together as a strong unit to make a difference in what really matters in the Post 9/11 world. Two stories in the news made this clear to me. You might think its It's a story of a gang shooting but it's not, I grew up to that and those type of things don't surprise me. What does is what Civil Rights Activist Andrew Young Told Reporters about Barack Obama.

The time has come where we shift our focus from the dude w/ the braids, pants hanging off his ass, and keeps leaning, rocking and talking way to loud and start paying attention to the overly quiet long haired kid w/ the blue eyes, trimmed w/ black eyeliner and the upside down cross on his shirt. These white kids are dangerous man!! Over in Finland, an 18-year-old gunman opened fire at his high school killing 9 people. I checked MSNBC and the headline reads a rare school shooting. WTF? Rare?!? They shoot up a school every other week. But this dude is different. He posted a warning video on Youtube. Oh I get it now, he's one of those internet thugs. We've all dealt w/ them. Some girlfriend, sending you hate mail b/c her boyfriend left you a comment, or some dude who wants to call you out of your name b/c you think Jay-Z is better than Nas. I myself have even played internet thug, over too many comments on my ex girls page.

It's video's like the one about which fuel my dislike for the FUZZ. I guess it's not cool for a black man to interact w/ YT and their kids. It seems like the color of one's skin is an issue all over the world. I know Martin said that we were all created equal but after 28 long hard years on this earth I find that very hard to believe. When I was 10 I was almost ran over by a cop car b/c they thought little black kids running down the street meant they were up to something. My young prepubescent face against the cold brick wall, my body being searched as the cop asked my why did I run and I had to explain the rules of Hide and Go Seek to him.

All Jokes aside, Lets be serious today. Our failure to pay attention to what's going on around us is the same thing that brought us to this country. I do not understand why we find who wins flavor of love or I love NY more important then what the people who control us are doing, saying and enforcing. Penny for your thoughts. Bush offered a lady the new penny b/c her husband died. A blatant smack in the face. Here is the exchange:

As the President rose to leave after 20 minutes, he said he hoped the visit would help the Falmouth, Maine, woman heal. Halley, 42, replied, “What would really help my healing is if you’d start finding a way to bring our troops home.”

[snip]

“Now he’s dead,” Halley, an artist, says she told Bush, no longer able to contain her anger. “For what? I’ve lost my soul mate.”

“I am so sorry for your loss,” Bush said more than once.

Their conversation ended shortly after Halley began urging Bush to end the war. “We see things differently,” he told her.

Halley says the encounter wasn’t “sharp,” even with her strong words and emotions. As they parted, they shook hands, he kissed her on the cheek and gave her a souvenir presidential coin.

By now you have all heard the story, or some version of it, Mostly b/c Civil rights activists, bloggers and black radio hosts helped spread the word about the case, demanding an end to what they see as unequal justice. “We will not rest” until all charges are dropped against the Jena Six. But I'm not here to beat you in the head about the story of these 6 teens or even about racism, it exist... If you don't know this by now you might as well tie a rope around your neck and roll down the steps until you choke out to death. I'm here to point out the fact that we have to STOP ACTING LIKE NIGGERS. Example Number 1

Three men (I prefer to call them boys) were arrested in Henry County, GA Friday thanks to a prank that only they found to be funny. The pranksters stole a mannequin from the fire department training facility (of all places to steal a mannequin you go right into the police's backyard?!), painted the dummy "black", spray painted KKK on the chest of the dummy, and then proceeded to hang it over the damn freeway overpass ... can you say mental?

Imagine you just broke up w/ your boo, and you don't know how to get them back... and then a song comes on the radio and totally explains how you feel. Well This is the same thing, Right now our country is in 2 wars, The one if Afganistan, and The one in Iraq. Most people can't tell you why we went to Iraq. Listen to the video

Top 5 Thing to Say To the President

~Mr. Bush probably did not know that, with his own words, he had already proved that he had been lying, is lying and will be lying about Iraq.~

~A man with any self respect, having inadvertently revealed such an evil secret, would have already resigned and fled the country! You have no remaining credibility about Iraq.~

~Mr. Bush, the only "hypothetical" here is that you are not now holding our troops hostage. You have no intention of withdrawing them. But that doesn't mean you can't pretend you're thinking about it, does it?~

~You can fool some of the people all of the time, can't you, Mr. Bush? You are playing us!~

~this president has ceased to listen. This president has decided that night is day, and death is life, and enraging the world against us is safety. And this laziest of presidents, actually interrupted his precious time off to fly to Iraq to play at a photo opportunity with soldiers, some of whom will on his orders be killed before the year maybe the month is out.~

Recently Michelle Obama, is a very strong black woman, I get chills just thinking about her. Recently at one of her speaking engagements she said "If you can't run your own house, you can't run the White House." Immediately the press ran w/ it as Angry Black Woman takes swipe at Hillary. Well Maybe they didn't say it like but they might as well had with all the attention the comment received. But my question today is Why does the media have such a problem w/ a strong black women? Me personally I praise the strong black woman who has more to do than just watch BET and try to get down the latest dance moves and hottest fashions. You see a strong black woman is like tripping and falling into a pool of money. Unfortunately, when most men get a fly strong black woman they ruin them, by cheating or using them to a point where they buckle down and handle their business even more.

You see women are queens, who should be worshiped, pampered, and praised. So today if you're holding down your job, house, kids and man. Then I applaud you and all you do. Thank you.

What Makes you a Strong Black Woman?

Today, while I was minding my own business, my homegirl Feoshia sent me an article she knew would get my mind a rolling. Now I must say I was rather pissed when I began checking my mail, Gas Prices are through the roof, I wanted to do the grown up and had no one to do the grown up with and to top it all off, I didn't get to watch Girlfriends. But then suddenly it all started to make sense, after I read this article. You see, according to an extensive survey of 1,280 people ages 13-24 by The Associated Press and MTV, 72 percent of whites say they are happy with life in general, compared with 51 percent of Hispanics and 56 percent of blacks. (Which was probably 6 out of 12 people)

Last night CNN aired the first of hopefully many to come Youtube Political Debates. Where regular common people upload video questions for the candidates. There were many good and tough questions raised, including a gay couple asking Sen. Edwards if they could get married... To each other. But the best question was raised by Cecelia and Ashanti they asked all of the hopefuls if they would work for the minimum wage. Edwards and Clinton both simple said YES. I was sitting there like why the hell are they lying until Barack Obama clarified it for me. He basically said Yeah y'all mickie fickies would work for minimum wage cause we're already STANKY rich!!! well he didn't exactly use those words check it out for yourself. This is a must see in my book

Would you work for Minimum Wage?

Leave it to bloggers to cover the real truth in current events and news. As you all know Micheal Vick has been tried, persecuted, and convicted of dog fighting in the court of public opinion. Well not so much as public opinion as much as PETA's opinion. But what happens when someone really does kill a dog with his own bare hands? What does PETA and Media do then?

Truth be told, I'm not feeling very damned patriotic today, for more than a couple of reasons.

1. American men and women are still dying in a shit hole in the desert called Iraq.
2. The Commander in Chief refuses to bring any of them home.
3. The President just commuted the prison sentence of one of his cronies, in complete contradiction to standing law.
4. The President and his administration refuse to come clean on the warrant less wiretapping program, even claiming executive privilege on conversations that occurred concerning the legality of that program.
5. The President and his administration continue to show disregard for the United States Constitution, continue to disregard the checks placed upon them by that document, continue to do end runs around the Geneva Conventions, and flout pretty much every other piece of domestic or international legislation designed to constrain their wantonly criminal acts.
6. The majority of Democrats seem unwilling or unable to do the necessary work of investigating, and if necessary, bringing this President and his administration to account for his actions. Instead, they'd rather jawbone and continue campaigning for the elections next year.

So you'll excuse me if I'm not sufficiently motivated to fire up the grill, swill some beers, and watch colorful ordinance explode over my head. Or stick a "Support Or Troops" sticker to my gas guzzler and parade around the highways of Columbus. I'm working two jobs just to stay ahead of my bills and to try to save money for school. I cannot even make it home to see my friends and family, whom I miss dearly, because my car continues to make this clunking noise that the mechanics can't seem to puzzle out. That, and I have to work both of my jobs tomorrow, which would leave me little time for the back and forth to my hometown of Sandusky.

In any case, I wish each and every one of you, and your families, a safe and happy Fourth of July. Hopefully you'll celebrate this holiday with a little more gusto than I will.

What’s good peoples?? Ya boy Xilla has enlisted my help to come up with a weekly blog for his site. So I’m going to be dropping weekly installments of my new blog series. It’s entitled I Ain’t Hatin…I’m Just Sayin.

So when I was searching for something to talk about I came up with this story.

Alright so let me break this down. This woman co-operated (snitched) with the police last year on a domestic violence case which caused them to lose their child to CPS because they had drug paraphernalia in the house. So a year later these people decide to exact their revenge. They promise to smoke some meth-amphetamine with the chick and tell her to come back to the crib later, where they then jump her ass and brand SNITCH into the left side of her face and cut her hair off. I Ain’t Hatin…I’m Just Sayin…Damn that’s fucked up. I mean this chick will probably have to go thru numerous reconstructive surgeries to get her face somewhat back to normal all because she spoke to the cops and told them what she saw or heard. It’s not her fault they left their pipes laying all over the house and their 5 year old got taken away. I mean when you really think about it she may have saved someone from getting their ass beat. It’s a tough decision to make deciding when to snitch and when not to snitch. Now me personally I won’t snitch on someone on the corner selling weed or something because I mean everybody gotta eat. As long as they keep that shit on the corner and away from my house I’m good. But if they start chilling on the porch in front of my house and I gotta say “excuse me can I get by” when I’m walking to the front door, hell yeah I’m calling the cops because now they’re disrupting my way of life. I once called the cops after I saw this dude beating the hell outta this chick in his car. I can’t let a guy do that to a woman. So yeah I did snitch. But then this story got me to thinking.

If all the sins or wrongdoings we committed against other people got branded on us what would your brand or brands say????

If you've been to the hood then you've heard political conversations where the participants saying I'd like to see Mr. President come to the hood. Well It has happened Sen. Barack Obama was kicking it w/ Angie Martinez. She's a Hot 97 Radio personality and well if you know anything about The Hot 97 you know that it's the home of rapper's getting shot. And Barack his doing it big. This might really kick off my Barack for the Hood Campaign the funny thing is they brought him on right after they played T-Pain's Buy You A Drink. How funny is that. He kicks it up about everything from the hood to what's on his Ipod, yeah the Senator listens to Jigga.

Armchair Americans by Senator Tony

Everywhere I traveled yesterday in my beloved city of Columbus yesterday, people were talking about it. At the malls, in the bars, even in the adult video stores, discussions abounded about it. What was it everybody was talking about yesterday? Ohio State football, which, ladies and gents, is now only two months away? No, it seems that the Scarlet and Grey fever hasn't caught just yet. Everybody was talking politics.

Normally I don't spend much of my time on Saturdays talking politics. If anything I spend it in various states of drunken stupor, on one of the shopping kicks I've been on rather recently, and if it happens to be a fall Saturday in Ohio, I'm watching my Buckeyes tear up yet another opponent on the gridiron (we'll get Florida back one of these days)

One particularly interesting discussion took place in Lion's Den, which is an adult video/book/toy store here in the capital city of Ohio. One gentleman was up on his soapbox, telling a tale of woe about how the Man's foot was on his particular neck. I'm sorry folks, but my mind cannot shift gears fast enough from searching for my latest installment of Jenna porn to politics. Call it my Achilles' Heel. I can't do that when I'm sober, which certainly didn't qualify yesterday.

Later on that evening, as I sat at the bar (big surprise there) I witnessed another interesting discussion on Barack Obama's name- particularly its similarities in spelling to Osama, and his middle name, which he happens to share with our old and late friend Saddam Hussein.

Two weeks ago I quit my job as a suburban reporter for The Cincinnati Enquirer to start my own freelance writing business.

In those two short weeks I’ve realized now I have more than just freedom from “the man,” but freedom to speak out and get involved in politics.

I’ve followed national and local politics for years. It was my job, I used to cover the Kentucky legislature and more recently I found that even the suburbs have their juicy political stories.

But when you’re a reporter the “B” word – bias -- is forever in the back of your mind and in the front of the public’s. So I really couldn’t do much outside of work politically, but vote.

That’s changed now, and I’ve decided to get involved in the national political debate, literally. The YouTube video web site has teamed up with CNN for a Democratic primary presidential debate in July.

We get to ask the questions. So I’m gonna get out my handy digital camera/recorder and ask away. I haven’t decided exactly WHAT to ask, maybe you guys have some ideas? Pass ‘em along.

And wish me luck.

If they pick my questions I’ll get to go to Charleston, S.C. to watch the debate on July 23.

Have your own idea? Go HERE http://www.youtube.com/debates and submit your own!
