Herman Cain’s Campaign Promises with Mike Tyson

Tell the truth and shame the devil!

Do you think Herman Cain will survive once folks realize all of his "victims" were blond and blue eyed?  Do you think THAT makes a difference?

Dear Herman Cain:

Herman Cain Empathizes with Black People...FOR ONCE!

Ya know ya boy has been all up and down telling folks that Black people without boots should pull up their bootstraps.

He's also on record pandering and saying that Black people use discrimination as an excuse.

Except that...NOW...he's the Black person under fire and yup...

HIM PULLED OUT HIM BLACK CARD!

GTFOOHWTBS!

GIVER.OF.JOY that one is.  GIVER.OF.JOY!

What do YOU say?

You good?

 

Mississippi Proposition 26 = HELL.NO.

If you have frozen embryos in Mississippi, and Proposition 26 passes...you will never, ever, EVER be able to discard your embryos.

EVER.

Why?  Because Proposition 26 will consider that embryo a human life.

No matter that if you attempt to implant that embryo and it doesn't "take" mind ya...it's a LIFE if Proposition 26 passes.

If you discard of those embryos...you are committing MURDER if Proposition 26 passes.

There are some seriously dumb MFs out there and, apparently, Mississippi is giving them a voice.

Can yall PLEASE call ya people in Mississippi, if you have any, and make sure they go out and vote against Proposition 26?

Break this shit down to them.

Yall know someone who has used embryos NUMEROUS times to try and have a baby and the fact that it didn't work should be proof enough that seriously...this shit is ludicrous.

 

 

Occupy Wall Street

“Rebellion will not stop until the corporate state is extinguished.”

So...there is a lot of confusion out there about the OWS movement.  It started with a simple call to folks to show up on Wall Street on September 17, 2011 with tents and just pretty much move in on Wall Street.  Why?  Because this movement has decided enough is enough as it relates to corporations being allowed to screw us and get rich off doing so and then...nothing happens to them.

Like the mortgage crisis which continues to screw us and, dare I say, IN MY OPINION, is the reason the economy is so fugged up right now and won't be right for probably a decade or so.

So corporations, in OWS's opinion, have pretty much been able to get away with straight up raping us and then we're azzed out and the division of wealth gets even BIGGER.

Haves versus Have Nots.

The people WITH the power versus the people who just want to be able to pay their mortgage and other living expenses, and live a normal, happy life.

At least that's my take on it.

What say you?

What do you think about the movement so far? 

Are you for or against it?

Do you think it's necessary?  Do you think they'll get anything done?  Do you think this is the only way to get our government to really listen to our problems and take serious steps to fix them?

Mormon President = HELL.NO.

 

I don't put much thought into a candidate's religion and yet...I don't want a Mormon president.

There is simply too much about the Mormon faith that gets the o_0 from me.

Seriously.

Does that make me a hypocrite?

 

Lobbyists

What do you know about lobbying?

How do you feel about it?

 

From Mark Cuban:

Bust your ass and get rich.

Make a boatload of money. Pay your taxes. Lots of taxes. Hire people. Train people. Pay people. Spend money on rent, equipment, services. Pay more taxes.

When you make a shitload of money. Do something positive with it. If you are smart enough to make it, you will be smart enough to know where to put it to work.

I don’t care what anyone says. Being rich is a good thing. Not just in the obvious sense of benefiting you and your family, but in the broader sense. Profits are not a zero sum game. The more you make the more of a financial impact you can have.

I’m not against government involvement in times of need. I am for recognizing that big public companies will continue to cut jobs in an effort to prop up stock prices, which in turn stimulates the need for more government involvement. Every cut job by the big companies extracts a cost on the American people in one way or another.

Entrepreneurs are needed to create and grow companies to absorb those people in new jobs. If entrepreneurs don’t create those jobs, the government ends up having to spend more money to help them one way or another.

So be Patriotic. Go out there and get rich. Get so obnoxiously rich that when that tax bill comes , your first thought will be to choke on how big a check you have to write. Your 2nd thought will be “what a great problem to have”, and your 3rd should be a recognition that in paying your taxes you are helping to support millions of Americans that are not as fortunate as you.

In these times of “The Great Recession” we shouldn’t be trying to shift the benefits of wealth behind some curtain. We should be celebrating and encouraging people to make as much money as they can. Profits equal tax money. While some people might find it distasteful to pay taxes. I don’t. I find it Patriotic.

I’m not saying that the government’s use of tax money is the most efficient use of our hard-earned capital. It obviously is not. In a perfect world, there would be a better option. We don’t live in a perfect world. We don’t live in a perfect time. We live in a time where the government plays a big role in an effort to help lead us out this Great Recession. That’s reality.

So I will repeat my point. Get out there and make a boatload of money. Enjoy the shit out your money. Pay your taxes.

It’s the most Patriotic thing you can do.

Credible Threat

Yesterday we attended the Ravens' football game.  We were very excited and happy.  You know...looking forward to the game.

Earlier last week...we became aware of a credible threat to mark the anniversary of 9/11.

Yesterday was 9/11.

CREDIBLE THREAT.

And here is why it was such a big deal to us...

Because this administration hasn't slammed us with the words "credible threat" whenever they need a big political pull.  Seriously.  They haven't played that game. They haven't cried wolf and tried to keep us all messed up using fear mongering.

So we took that seriously and we were in hightened security mode while there because that's what we were SUPPOSED to do.

See...they get threats every.single.day.  They could very well put that out there every.single.day.  But they don't.  They do their jobs to ensure the threats are contained and handled.  THEY DO THEIR JOBS.

EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.

So yeah...when they put it out there...knowing they don't use it to make folks tow some line...I listen. 

And so should you.

And we will ALL be safer because they use this authority WISELY.

Remember when your parents told you to stay outta grown folks' conversation cuz it ain't your business? Same concept. Everything ain't meant for you to know. Get over it and go do something with yourself.

What say YOU?

"There was an article about an 11 year old girl who was gangraped in Texas by 18 young men because she was dressed like a 21-year-old prostitute," she said. "And her parents let her attend school like that. And I think it’s incumbent upon us to create some areas where students can be safe in school and show up in proper attire so what happened in Texas doesn’t happen to our students." - Rep. Kathleen Passidomo (R-Naples)

Saggy Pants Legislation

'Sagging pants' bill passes House committee

"Rogers' bill doesn't actually use the words "sagging pants." But it requires school districts adopt a dress code that prohibits students from "wearing clothing that exposes underwear or body parts in an indecent or vulgar manner." Penalties include verbal warning and a call to parents for the first offense; ineligibility for extracurricular activities for up to five days on the second offense and in-school suspension on the third offense."

The President's Speech

Did you watch it last night?  What did YOU think? 

Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords

There are conflicting reports as to whether or not she's in surgery or has already left us...but Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and 12 others have been shot at an event in Arizona.

HuffPo says she's already gone.  *sigh* 

Gabrielle Giffords Dead: Dies Of Gunshot Wound To The Head

The shooter is still alive and I hope, wish and PRAY this wasn't politically motivated. 

Gosh...a United States Congresswoman...possibly assassinated.  iCan't.

My prayers are with the families of all the victims.

Unemployment Insurance

Yall know that the unemployement stuff you pay is for insurance right?

Right.

It's not like it's a pot of money with your name on it and once the money runs out...you don't get anymore.

It's INSURANCE.  You pay your insurance premiums when you're employed in the event you're ever UNEMPLOYED (for a good reason) and then you may use the BENEFIT of having the insurance in the first place.

Same as  your car and homeowners insurance.

Folks wouldn't be ashamed about using their car insurance if they were in an accident so they dang sure shouldn't be 'shame 'bout using their unemployement insurance.  That's what it's THERE for.  You PAID for it...you should be able to USE it when you NEED to.

Now...I'm a bit annoyed right now as I've been for a minute at all of the idjits on what passes for news making it seem as if Americans who have worked hard all of their life and paid their insurance premiums shouldn't be allowed to use them in the manner by which they should be used.

Sure...some folks are using them for longer than usual but guess what?  THESE FOLKS BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR LONGER THAN USUAL!

I'm feeling some kinda way as you can tell.

AND THEN...THEN...I hear about this deadbeat azz dad dude who hadn't worked for dang near a year before Katrina still getting unemployment payments and I understand why so many folks think there are people out there misusing the system and representing their circumstances differently and getting over.

Sheesh.

The system is fugged up but I'd bet the majority of the people using their benefits really wish they didn't have to.  I mean hell...the bit of money they pay out to folks is NOT paying folks' bills in their entirety.  No way in hell ESPECIALLY when folks have been out of work for SIGNIFICANT time.

Sorry...I just got annoyed by something regarding Unemployment and it reminded me of how pissed I was a week ago when a fool said some crazy ish on "Morning Joe." 

What do YOU think about extending the period by which folks may use their unemployment insurance?  Have YOU ever had to use your unemployment insurance?  Were you ever 'SHAMED to do so?  If so...WHY WERE YOU 'SHAME?

The Pink Elephant

Well...it was a rough night politicially for Democrats and an even ROUGHER morning listening to and reading all the analysis and stats.  We've sufficiently gone BACK in time.  ROFL!  (I laugh so I can't cry.)

The winners, the losers, Boehner vowing to destroy the Healthcare bill, etc.

I blame Obama.

I blame him for doing all that damn pandering to the Republicans and acting like he has a brain in his head instead of fighting dirty, slinging shit and kicking azz and taking names.

He proved that you just can't do it  the way you SHOULD be able to do it.

You can only do it the fugged up way.

And being in politics...he should have KNOWN this.  You can't be a good guy in politics man. 

How are YOU feeling this morning?  You good?

What they're singing in Delaware:

Voter Registration Card

I remember my parents heading out to vote and they'd have their voter registration cards with them.

I would bet you fifty cents that when my Grandmother rolled up on the polls first thing this morning she had her voter registration card too.

So it's not surprising that, even though I am fully aware I don't need it...I take my voter registration card with me when I go vote.

During the year it's locked up with all the important papers and yes...I get it out to have with me when I go cuz I don't want no trouble.  Sure I know everything is electronic but if some funny stuff go down...I got my card and my license and I don't wanna hear NUTTIN!

I know...I have issues.

Do YOU know anyone who still takes their voter registration card with them too?  Is it just me and the senior citizen set?  ROFL!

SIP:  Yall shoulda seent her this morning all bundled up looking eighty eight.  LOL!

HEY.YOU!

How to Vote 101

One of the best things your local Board of Elections does is send you an official specimen ballot.  It's that little weird shaped booklet that comes in your mail made out of newspaper paper.  It's about as long and wide as a regular piece of paper in my area but not exactly the same size.

Every registered voter gets one sent to their address on file and based on your address...your choices for candidates are in the book.

On the back of this book is the address of your polling place near the area where your name and address is.  Other basic information is included like date, times polls open and close, and information for early voting and absentee ballots. 

It's a really well put together little booklet.  Very basic and to the point.

If you're like me, you don't deal with this booklet when you first receive it but you DO put it in a very safe place so that you can put your hands on it as soon as you need it.

There is really all kinds of really good information inside of the booklet too like frequently asked questions.  What you need to bring.  Voting machine instructions, etc.

And then...on to the good stuff.

Every race is listed with every candidate. 

So...yeah...the easiest thing for me is to go through and put an X on all the names I know for sure I want to vote for because I've been closely watching their race.  So yeah...I do that.  Then...I pull out my computer and ask Mr. Google about the people I'm usually unfamiliar with.

These people, for me, are usually people running for Judges and the Board of Education. 

I read up on these folks and get a good gist of what they stand for and if there has been any controversy regarding them. 

Then there is usually some amendment stuff and referendum stuff that always seem pretty murky.  If you ask Mr. Google, however, you can find out the nitty gritty regarding.

As I'm doing this...I put an 'X' by all of the people I'm voting for and the things I'm voting against and I take my book with me.

Simple.

An educated voter.  I always hated guessing on multiple choice tests.

Have you filled out YOUR book yet?  You know who/what you're voting for in your area?

I hope so.
