This from Sister Toldjah:

On the heels of Dem presidential contender Senator Obama’s SC visit, another presidential hopeful - Senator Hillary Clinton - was in Columbia, SC yesterday pandering to about 1,500 people at Allen University. The university, as the AP describes it, is an historically black college. One ‘issue’ Senator Clinton brought up was the Confederate flag, which has been the subject of ongoing controversy in SC to the point that the NAACP’s long-standing boycott on SC is still in effect. Hillary is against the flag being displayed on Statehouse grounds (it used to be displayed on the Statehouse dome), and one of the reasons she’s against it will surprise you:

ORANGEBURG, S.C. (AP) — Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that South Carolina should remove the Confederate flag from its Statehouse grounds, in part because the nation should unite under one banner while at war.

“I think about how many South Carolinians have served in our military and who are serving today under our flag and I believe that we should have one flag that we all pay honor to, as I know that most people in South Carolina do every single day,” Clinton told The Associated Press in an interview.

LOL! Riiiight. I think this is the flag you were talking about, right, Senator Hillary “withdrawal from Iraq needs to begin in 90 days” Clinton?

Over the course of 48 hours, I have learned that those who write blogs are not only often self-absorbed egomaniacs obsessed with their differences from the mainstream media (when really they are now a crucial part OF the mainstream media), but many of them also seem to be ignorant (think of Michael Jackson and the South Park episode) and some of them are even evil (cough *SNOOP* cough)

We hate to see you go, but there is a wide world of blogs out there, many dedicated to pushing your core ideas of liberalism and saving minorities.

You still refuse to acknowledge your gross mischaracterization of the bloggers who participated in the program as “rich” and white as if they were a bunch of evil bastards’ hell bent on fucking up the world for all of us.
I bet you did not even bother to say hello to any of them or attempt to dialogue with them.
 
Bloggers are mothers, fathers, grandparents, political junkies, homebuilders, farmers, bankers, foodies, techno geeks, video game lovers and lovers of freaky shit and broke ass black dudes cough*Snoop*cough.

When you figure out that labeling people and putting people in categories is counter productive and approach blogging just as you would approach an individual on the street you will find that it can be a good experience both for information and networking.

Hit the rewind button and start over, blogging does allows you to have a “do over.”

The X-Edwards bloggers is having serious PMS.  This post below from her site Pandagon, her latest rant. 

Our troll infestation is now about half what it was, but we still have some nimrods hanging in. As Lindsay pointed out to me, one of the great things about male privilege is the ability of some men to believe they are smart, despite all the evidence to the contrary. Anyway, one of idiots buys into the conservative belief that if you pay a woman to mouth sexist things, that renders them magically less sexist and leaves this comment that I thought somewhat deserves addressing.

By the way, does it bother you that one of the major architects of your demise was herself a strong woman, Michelle Malkin?

The question, coming from a false premise, is utterly meaningless. But I do want to address this false premise that someone like Malkin is a “strong woman”. Women who kow-tow to male dominance by aggressively attacking women who actually do rebel against oppression can expect to have sexist men blow this particular “strong woman” smoke up their ass all the time. It means nothing. To the degree that these men mean it, they are mistaking assholery for strength.

But they don’t really mean it, and we all know it. There is nothing strong about the ladies of CWA or IWF or assholes like Ann Coulter or Michelle Malkin. There is nothing strong about selling other women down the river so that sexist men will pat you on the head and say, “What a gooooood woman you are. Now go attack another uppity bitch and maybe this time I’ll give you a cookie.” Sexist men may praise you for your obsequiousness, but they don’t actually think you’re strong, and they don’t respect you. Look at the way the men at NRO can barely conceal their contempt for K-Lo—and for that, I don’t blame them. She is a contemptible weakling, with the way she constantly pushes Victorian ideals of sexuality that exist to control and shame women, all with her desperate hope that someone will congratulate her for her servility.

There’s no strength in selling out other women for the approval of sexists, and not only is it not strong to begin with, every time you do it, you become weaker and more dependent on that approval, which can be yanked at a moment’s notice. Like I said back with Ana Marie Cox sold out Katha Pollitt in order to get a book review run in the ever-sexist NY Times:

Well, one thing I’ve learned that Ana Marie apparently has not is that if you smile at sexist pigs and play their games, they may be nicer to your face, but they’re still going to call you a “cunt” behind your back.

And that is the golden rule to remember when the Oink Patrol dangles money and praise in front of your face, or will even call you strong, so long as you agree to suck up your dignity and promote sexism—they still think you’re a cunt. The commenter who called Michelle Malkin “strong” would flip around and call her a cunt so fast it would make your head spin, if she ever showed a sign of a real backbone and stood up for something real for once in her life. So the real question is, “By the way, does it bother you that one of the major architects of your demise was herself a sniveling sell-out, Michelle Malkin?” And really, I think that answers itself.

You know there are some really stupid people out there, the bad thing is they are not hard to find, because like Brittany Spears they will seek out attention highlighting their stupidity and ignorance or cries for help.
My new friend “Rage Gurl” who in the video clip below indicates that she has worked for political causes and candidates including one of the dumbest and most screwed up politicians ever in Dennis “Little Mao” Kucinich.

 She asks what on the surface might not have been a bad question, but like a typical typical flaming liberal style accuses the entire world of being evil and that key phrase RICH. and WHITE!! DON’T FORGET YOU WHITE PEOPLE ARE EVIL!!

After her 15 minutes of fame acting like a jackass, the next day she writes this bullshit:

Mainstream political bloggers freaking suck. What a bunch of egomaniacs. They are worse than politicians.

Bloggers suck. When I criticized their lack of diversity and lack of representation of the mainstream voting populace, one of the uber-crazy-conservative-republican bloggers said, “I can’t help the way I was born.” You’re RIGHT, you can’t help the way you were born BUT you CAN help those who weren’t born with the supreme privilege that you were by doing something besides typing stupid ass shit on your stupid ass bloggity blog.

First the individual who said that was Jerome Armstrong and if her dumbass would have done her homework she would have known that he is hardly a conservative and started one of the most prominent blogs on the internet, left leaning yes, but still a good blog.
 
But the fact that she went to this program to be on C-SPAN so her parents and friends can gawk at her being on TV, bash blogging and those who participate, turns around and starts her own blog, oh BTW refuses to allow comments many critical of her total lack of common sense, then posts this on another BLOG this;    

My blog post about the forum has been linked to on instapundit.com yesterday. This resulted in thousands upon thousands of hits in a single day.
It’s interesting. It was pretty much my first blog ever. And now thousands of people are reading it. It’s all very strange.

Not to mention that the tag line on Instapundit was:

HERE’S MY SUGGESTION for John Edwards’ next blogger hire.

It was a slam moron, seriously are you really that fucken stupid.

I love blogging I enjoy reading and processing the content of all types of blogs. There are good and bad blogs out there just like there are good and bad music videos.
But Rage Gurl represents the worst of blogging. She started out simply being a blithering idiot on a Q & A session and because of some attention (yes Snoop was an idiot for feeding it) and now she has turned into another narcissistic blogging liberal nut.
But now because of the attention she is receiving she will soon be singing the praises of blogging.
I’m sure she will be seeing cute pictures of cats and dogs and mild adult content to draw in more viewers.

But before you get too popular seek professional help no bald pic of Rage Gurl! 

I LOVE THIS CAR!!

 By Andrea Estes, Boston Globe Staff 

Governor Deval Patrick (Democrat Negro/Mass) unabashedly defended his use of a $46,000 Cadillac DeVille for state business, saying yesterday that he abandoned the more customary and less expensive Crown Victoria used by former governor Mitt Romney because “they don’t make it anymore.”

Crown Victorias are still being made, they said, but do not meet security standards mandated by State Police.

A State Police spokesman said the new Crown Victoria’s side airbags interfered with special security equipment that would be installed in the governor’s car. He would not describe the equipment.

As the focus intensified on the new governor’s spending habits, the administration also found itself fielding questions about hiring a $72,000-a-year aide to handle scheduling and interview requests for Patrick’s wife, Diane, a law partner at Ropes & Gray. The new aide, Amy Gorin of Wellesley, and her husband, Norm, led the governor’s fund-raising committee.

Patrick is the first governor since Michael S. Dukakis, who left office in 1990, to hire a staff member for a spouse.

“Mrs. Patrick has a full-time job as a practicing attorney, so staff assistance relative to her official duties as first lady is necessary, ” said Patrick spokesman Kyle Sullivan.

In appearances and interviews yesterday, Patrick gave a series of defenses for his use of the luxury DeVille.

He said that in conjunction with State Police, he made the decision that the $1,166-a-month car was “useful and appropriate,” and that he was too busy with state financial issues to focus too much on which car he used.

Hey if I were some high ranking dude, I would be driving a BMW or Mercedes not a piece of shit Cadillac, I don’t give a shit how broke my state was or how many people bitched about it. There I said it!!

From John Hawkins RWN,  simply put but can’t be repeated often enough…     

Initially, the Democrats were just pushing the non-binding resolution opposing the surge and were holding off on cutting funds for the war. But now, they’re escalating in the house and John Murtha and company are actually going to try to block the surge.

Why?

Because it’s working. Violence is dropping sharply, Al-Qaeda is fleeing Baghdad, Al-Sadr ran for Iran, the tribes in Anbar are cooperating with us, and the Iraqi military is stepping up to the plate.

Because the Democrats habitually put their own political prospects above what’s good for the country and the troops, they’re deliberately trying to sabotage the war. Let me be even more blunt: the Democrats want America to lose the war in Iraq because they believe it will help them politically in 2008. It’s dishonorable, it’s disgraceful, and it’s bad for America — but, it’s also the policy of the Democratic Party, with the exception of a handful of honorable men like Joe Lieberman.

I’ve been saying for quite a while that defending America is now a partisan issue and the shameful way that the Democrats are acting in Congress has proved me right.

By Robert D. Novak
CNSNews.com Commentary

After 16 undistinguished terms in Congress, Rep. John P. Murtha at long last felt his moment had arrived. He could not keep quiet the secret Democratic strategy that he had forged for the promised “second step” against President Bush’s Iraq policy (after the “first step” non-binding resolution of disapproval). In an interview last Thursday with the anti-war website MoveCongress.org, he revealed plans to put conditions on funding of U.S. troops. His message: I am running this show.

Indeed, he is. Murtha and his ally, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, were humiliated last Nov. 16 when the Democratic Caucus overwhelmingly voted against Murtha as majority leader. Three months later, Murtha has shaped party policy that would cripple Bush’s Iraq troop surge by placing conditions on funding. That represents the most daring congressional attempt to micromanage ongoing armed hostilities in nearly two centuries, since the Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War challenged President Abraham Lincoln.

Murtha’s plan did not surprise Republicans. They were poised to contend that his proposed amendment to the supplemental appropriations bill would effectively cut off funding for the war, confronting moderate Democrats elected after promising voters to support troops. But the Senate rule requiring 60 votes to end debate, which prevented final passage of the non-binding resolution rejecting the troop surge, would not affect Murtha’s plan because appropriations have to be passed and cannot be filibustered.

Thus, unless there is an unexpected retreat of Democrats, Murtha will be driving U.S. policy. That is an improbable elevation for a congressman best known until now as a purveyor of pork. An ideological moderate (75 percent liberal and 40 percent conservative, according to recent ratings), he became a hero to the left by advocating “redeployment” of troops from Iraq.

KOGO Hosts ‘Party’ In Protest Of Bank Of America Decision

SAN DIEGO — A local radio show wants people to shred their Bank of America credit cards to protest the bank’s decision to offer credit cards to illegal immigrants.

A credit card shredding party was held in front of the KOGO studios in Serra Mesa.

Bank of America said the credit card is open to people without a Social Security number or credit history as long as they have had a checking account with the bank for three months.
The bank said the program would help undocumented workers build good credit.

***

This is really cute, but just like in the other post I hate meaningless protests!

Hey people, instead of shredding your Bank of American credit cards, CLOSE YOUR FUCKEN ACCOUNTS.

Yes what Bank of America is doing is bullshit and fucked up, but its business.

If people want to send them a message stop doing business with them, don’t go to a Bank of America ATM, close accounts, encourage friends to close accounts doing anything else if pointless.
If they want to be fucken Bank of Mexico then they are free to take that risk.  

Also found this on Right Wing News, lots of good stuff there today.
I read this as was reminded of what I will always refer to as “rage gurl”

I’m wondering is protesting in the DNA of liberals? Is protesting something like, smoking crack or heavy drinking?
Is being angry and ranting and carrying signs all day therapeutic to you liberals?

I have to be in DC in a few weeks, I hope you liberals schedule a protest then, please!!!
I want to see the circus and freak show first hand. 

***

There have been a lot of dumb liberal protests over the years. We’ve had liberals, ugly liberals, walking through the streets nude, forming “impeach” in giant letters on the beach, running around with giant puppet heads — but, this has got to be the dumbest protest yet:

National Boycott To Impeach for Peace and JusticeA national coaltion of citizens, including war veterans, distinguished academics, students, journalists, artists, and elected officials have joined with us to call for a nationwide boycott of all consumer activity, for one week in April.

… This boycott is a way of unifying the opposition to the Bush Administration; and according to Dr. Peter Phillips, who was the first to propose the idea in December, “could well be the straw that broke the camel’s back”.

…Consumers are asked to withhold their spending for seven days, beginning on Sunday April 15 and lasting until Sunday April 22, 2007. Do NOT shop corporate outlets Minimize use of oil and gas. Carpool: bus, bike or walk. If you buy, BUY LOCALLY. Plan Ahead and Stock Up

They’re going to “stock up” the week before, try to live like the Unabomber for a week, and then go back to their normal buying patterns? So, apparently, they think this is going to happen:

Corporate sales go up a little bit for a week as people stock up. Corporate sales go down a little bit for a week as people boycott. Corporate sales go back to normal as the boycott ends after a week. Corporate CEOS go insane over the mild fluctuations in sales and demand Bush be impeached immediately!

ORANGEBURG, S.C. - White House hopeful Barack Obama, taking a fellow black lawmaker to task, said Saturday voters are ready to elect a black president.

“At every turn in our history, there’s been somebody who said we can’t,” the Democratic senator from Illinois told a nearly all-black audience of about 2,000 at Claflin University.

“Some people said we can’t do this, we can’t do that, so we shouldn’t even try. If I have your support, if I have your energy and involvement and commitment and ideas, then I’m here to tell you, ‘Yes we can.’”

The comments drew the loudest ovation during a question-and-answer session in his first campaign swing through South Carolina, an early voting state.

The first-in-the-South contest here is seen as a test of candidates’ abilities to reach black voters. Half of the state’s Democratic primary voters are black.

Obama responded to comments this past week by Democratic state Sen. Robert Ford of Charleston, who helped mobilize black voters for former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards in 2004, but has switched to Hillary Rodham Clinton in the 2008 presidential race.

Ford said Tuesday that Obama, a first-term senator, has much to prove. “The media made this guy bigger than life,” Ford said. “This guy isn’t tested and they made him a rock star.”

Ford said one reason he was supporting Clinton, the New York senator, is that he is skeptical Obama can win the presidency and worries his nomination could hurt other Democratic candidates.

“Every Democrat running on that ticket next year would lose _ because he’s black and he’s top of the ticket. We’d lose the House and the Senate and the governors and everything,” Ford said.

Ford drew widespread criticism for his comment and later apologized.

U.S. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., introduced Obama, saying “Run, Barack, run.”

“Obama is able to run today because Rosa Parks sat down,” Clyburn said. “He is able to run today because Septima Clark stood up.”

Parks, in 1955, refused to give up her bus seat to a white man in Montgomery, Ala., sparking a mass boycott by thousands, mainly black women domestic workers who had long filled the buses’ back seats.

Clark was an educator and activist for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People decades before the nation’s attention turned to racial equality.

Clyburn says he is not endorsing a primary candidate.

State Democratic Party Chairman Joe Erwin tells candidates the race is open and the black vote is not monolithic.

Darcel Lancaster, an 18-year-old Claflin freshman, spent nearly two hours waiting in the morning’s chill to be the first in line to see Obama. The biology major said she wouldn’t commit to Obama’s campaign.

“I’m going to look more into others,” she said.

She doesn’t expect him to win every black vote _ including hers.

“Some people think he’s not black enough,” Lancaster said. If she picked Obama, it wouldn’t be because of his race, she said. “He’s not full black,” Lancaster said.

OK THAT IS JUST RETARDED!

U.S. Sen. Chris Dodd of Connecticut spoke earlier Saturday at a Richland County Democratic Party breakfast to a crowd of less than 100.

Both Dodd and Obama had to shorten their South Carolina visits to get back to Washington where they voted for a Senate resolution opposing sending more U.S. troops to Iraq. The nonbinding measure fell four votes short.

Later Saturday, Gov. Timothy M. Kaine of Virginia endorsed Obama’s candidacy.

“Just the opportunities we have had to work together, my sense of where the nation is and what the nation needs makes me believe that the senator is the right candidate,” Kaine said at a news conference with Obama outside Virginia’s Executive Mansion in Richmond.

While reading some other websites and listening to a couple of talk shows ya know I am so sick of hearing about Obama I can’t see straight.

I almost cringe as I post this because I have said this so many times and I know it’s tired rhetoric on my part.

You are not going to get a large enough number of white people to EVER vote in a black man for president. I just don’t understand why the MSM or any other media source won’t deal honestly with this issue.

“At every turn in our history, there’s been somebody who said we can’t,” the Democratic senator from Illinois told a nearly all-black audience of about 2,000 at Claflin University.
“Some people said we can’t do this, we can’t do that, so we shouldn’t even try.”

Nobody is telling you not to try you jackass. I am aware that running for president gives you political street cred, this race might translate into a high level candidate position or some other perk, but nobody is going to vote your black ass into the presidency and anybody out there that even processes that notion is delirious.

White people talk a good game about being inclusive, and being open to diversity and all of the other politically correct crap.
But when they take their asses into the voting booth they almost certainly will say hell no to a nigga president, I don’t care how “well spoken” he is.

As a Negro I don’t give a shit about “making history” it’s about voting for the person who is best for this nation and the last person I want to see in office is some novice, flaming liberal, high yella Negra.

The only thing white Democrat liberals want from Negros is their vote, give “me your vote and we will throw gubment checks at ya” 

PS

You know when I have a post on Obama and I use this one with him in the KKK robe I often wonder, is Robert KKK Byrd endorsing his presidential campaign?
After all Obama did help raise money for the old racist bastard.
What no Robert Byrd and Hussein photo ops? Just askin!   

Unfortunately she is on the same track as Anna Nicole Smith. She is either going to OD on something or blow her brains out.
If I were advising her I would tell her to take her ass out of the country and live in seclusion for a few years so she could get herself together.
She is simply losing her fucken mind, and we all get to witness the drama.  

Ah yes here is the whining liberal white gurl…

Your comment is 100% fictitious. You do NOT know me at all.

UPDATE: A reader sent this to me…

Somebody should tell Cammie Challender, Case Worker for B…….  of Douglas County (who has raised exactly
$469 of her $1000 goal for Bowl For Kids 2007), sometimes organizer of anti-war rallied in front of the county courthouse, occasional writer for the KU Alumni Mag and whose email is cchallender@….., anyone can find anyone on the internet.

“You don’t even know who I am” lasts 5 minutes, at best.

Rage Gurl likes to protest too

Okay, maybe I wasn’t polished. I hadn’t even seen the CSPAN video. I don’t even remember what I said.

HOWEVER, the reason for that is simple: I was angry. I was angry as I looked at SIX middle-aged white, rich Americans tell ME how they were changing politics and the media in America. I was overcome by my anger and probably not very articulate.

I had NO FUCKING CLUE that CSPAN was going to be at this event. NO CLUE.

Although this extra little diatribe is not worth responding to let me at least point this out.
Everybody in this area who knew about this event KNEW C-SPAN was covering it.
It was reported in the local and campus papers, on several web sites, on a couple of radio shows ect.
So not only do you have an ignorant and delusional individual you have a liar on top of that.  

I had NO FUCKING CLUE that I was going to over-come my shy-ness and actually get up and say something to these people. It was only AFTER listening to them talk for 60 minutes about how different they are from mainstream media that I felt I HAD to say something.

I KNOW that there are minority blogs out there. I never said differently. But minority blogs are NOT nearly as popular as white,mainstream blogs are….TIMEOUT! WHILE I LAUGH, HE,  HE, HE, HE

 Nor are minority blogs half as prevalent as richwhitemen blogs are.

You screw it up for the good liberals out there. I say on this blog all the time how really stupid liberals are and you are that shining example of why I find liberalism not only funny but dangerous.
I’m serious are you really that clueless and ignorant?

I had NO FUCKING clue I was going to get a word of coverage on instapundit.com because of what I have to say about bloggers. I have NO FUCKING CLUE how instapundit even found me.

So get off your high horse. I spend 40 hours a week helping poverty stricken children and adults make their lives a little better. Many of them are minorities. And I can personally guarantee you that they appreciate my help. I get nothing but praise and positive words from them all the time.

So FUCK OFF you ignorant minoritymale. Ooooooo she told me!!!!

This is a post from the retarded white girl on the “Blog to the Chief” video. This is the photo she took before the event.

She says in her caption “I’ll be on C-SPAN at some point. 
I posted my comment on her blog http://camstar.vox.com/library/post/blog-to-the-chief.html,  but I doubt she will approve it. My rant is below. 
 

Mainstream political bloggers freaking suck. What a bunch of egomaniacs. They are worse than politicians.

Ugh.

Wednesday night, Feb. 13, I traveled to the Dole Center and watched in horror as four rich (though several insisted to me that they are NOT wealthy; however, by world standards they ARE ALL disgustingly wealthy), middle-aged, white men and one, rich, middle-aged, white woman talked about political blogging and how blogging is changing America and how awesome bloggers really are!

Those individuals represented two Democratic Party perspectives (Jerome Armstrong of www.mydd.com and Joan McCarter, mcjoan, of www.dailykos.com) and three Republican Party perspectives (Patrick Hynes of www.anklebitingpundits.com, Scott W. Johnson of http://www.powerlineblog.com/, and  Erick-Woods Erickson of www.redstate.com).  ALL FIVE OF THEM SUCK HARDCORE.  AND the moderator of the event was yet ANOTHER RICH, MIDDLE-AGED, WHITE MAN.

All six of these individuals (FIVE RICHWHITEMEN annd ONE RICHWHITEWOMAN) are EXTREMELY well-educated and have led EXTREMELY privileged lives.

Bloggers suck. When I criticized their lack of diversity and lack of representation of the mainstream voting populace, one of the uber-crazy-conservative-republican bloggers said, “I can’t help the way I was born.” You’re RIGHT, you can’t help the way you were born BUT you CAN help those who weren’t born with the supreme privilege that you were by doing something besides typing stupid ass shit on your stupid ass bloggity blog.

The bloggers talked endlessly about how blogging is SO VERY VERY different from the mainstream media. They talked endlessly about how blogging is CHANGING politics in America.

Um, rich white people control the mainstream media. They also control the blogosphere. Rich, white men have ALWAYS controlled politics. What’s changing?  Any illusion that the average American is getting a voice through the blogosphere is a complete and total invention in their mind.

How many single mothers do you know that have the time or ability to blog about political events? How many mainstream working-class Americans do you know that have the time or ability to blog about political events?

Not only do many people not even have internet access at their homes, but many people do not have the TIME to sit around and type about stupid shit like what they think about the latest Bush speech. They’re too busy actually working and caring for their families to type shit on their freaking blog. UGH.

But only 11% of voters read blogs. And those 11% are probably already so politically involved that what they read is just fuel for their fire.

So I’m gonna be on CSPAN. I’ll be the belligerent girl yelling at the ignorant, self-important, narcissistic, worse-than-politicians bloggers.

***

You know I was all fired up to give you this angry Negro response to your jackass post and you retarded outburst at the program.
Being a Negro, I just want to tell you that the last thing I need is some out of touch, ignorant liberal white girl, save the world wannabee speaking for me and other darkies.
If you did your research you would find that not only are there lots of Negro bloggers on both sides of the political fence but there are lots of good ones.

Frankly more than that and something that anybody who comes here and read your diatribe should know is your outburst at the event was totally staged and not even sincere.

I found a photo that you took before the event that was posted on Flickr (sp?), if CSpan was not at the event you would not have even come to the event thus your retarded rant would not have even taken place. It was all staged as was this post so you can get some ink and get some attention.

So my anger was immediately replaced with pity.
This is typical ranting liberal nonsense, draw attention to yourself not because the issue was important but to make a spectacle of yourself and all you did was make people think you were nuts, which you are.    

Blogs are no different than any other form of information if you don’t like it then either turn the channel or don’t go to the website.

A lot of us Negros have removed the “blame whitey” and “evil whitey” collar. Maybe you should too.

This from Neal Bortz 

The Senate and House of Representatives – under Democrat control – seem to exist for one purpose — to debate and pass meaningless resolutions relating to the Iraqi front on the war on Islamic fascism (sometimes called by those who haven’t thought it out the “war on terror.”).

OK .. enough. This “non-binding” resolution is getting a bit wearisome. If you peace-at-any-price Democrats and RINOS are so determined to undercut and weaken President Bush in his attempts to bring the war in Iraq to a successful conclusion .. why not just do away with your non-binding rhetoric and take a real stand!

Cut the funding for the war!

Come on .. .just do it! You’ve been waving your “Bush lied, people died” flags for years now. You’ve been lighting your candles at the altar of moveon.org while dreaming of a Barbra Streisand – Susan Sarandon threesome … just get it done! No more non-binding this, that and the other thing. If you’re so damned sure that everything would be just fine if we would just get out of Iraq right now … vote to cut the funding! The Constitution gives you control over the purse strings … stand up for your convictions and exercise that control!

And as for you, Hillary … time to show that you can be a leader. You want the troops out .. and you’re saying that if you were president they would be coming home, right? OK … then show some leadership in the Senate and announce that you’re ready to vote … right NOW … for legislation that would end all funding for the war in Iraq in 90 days, except for funding directly related to withdrawing our troops and materials. Show you’re a leader, Ms. Rodham .. not just a talker.

And just why won’t the Democrats take this tact? Because they know that once again they would vividly illustrate to the American people that they are, have been, and will be weak on defense.

When Hillary wins and the Democrats increase their measure of control in the congress .. will things change? When the chips are down will they really send the unmistakable signal to the wonderful world of the Islamic Jihad that the U.S. no longer has the will to fight?
Looks like we’re going to find out.

This is damm near the biggest non-issue I have ever seen in politics.

You people who are registered Democrats just have to be embarrassed for your party.
Democrats are made up of a bunch of spineless, sorry ass bunch of jackasses.

I am also sick of the MSM media making this non-binding resolution bullshit such a big story.
Show a backbone Democrats, and I’m not gonna be as nice as Bortz was, pull the fucking funding!
If you think Iraq is fucked up and we should be out of there tell G Dub to fuck off, tell him we will not authorize one more dollar or send one more troop to Iraq.

If Republicans are wrong if G Dub is wrong then Democrats and their supporters need to have mass marches, protest Democrat presidential candidates, flooding Democrat politicians e-mail and snail mail forcing them to do what they were elected to do in November get us out of Iraq.

In addition any credible left wing blog should stop posting bullshit about G Dub and focus more on your own spineless retarded political party. 

Ok a little bit on the new Fox show, Half Hour Comedy Hour.
This was written a few days ago. Below is an assessment by Hawkins on Right Wing News.
I’m with Hawkins on this, I want the show to succeed, but the first episode bored me to death.    

by Jed Babbin - Human Events 

Okay. Confess.  Even though Stephen Colbert is really funny and Jon Stewart may make you cringe, you want more.  You want a conservative satire on the news, and haven’t seen one since, well, since time began.  Why?

We all know that conservatives have a better sense of humor than liberals. That’s why Rush, Laura and Sean are conquering all and why Minnesota senatorial candidate Al Franken needs a job.  Liberals are incapable of poking fun at themselves.  Conservatives produce endless humor in writing and on radio.  And now, this Sunday, our appetite for televised conservative humor is apparently going to be satisfied.  

It’s called “The Half Hour News Hour” and is produced by Joel Surnow (creator and exec produce of “24″) and Ned Rice.  But the best part is that Ann Coulter — yes, our Ann, HUMAN EVENTS legislative correspondent — is in it.  Is it funny?  One gent e-mailed me to say that, “Critics are already calling it ‘the funniest show ever produced by the FOX News Channel, not counting Geraldo.’”

Pop the corn, pour the wine, sit back and watch.  Step aside, libs.  It’s our turn.

***

Fox’s widely discussed, new conservative comedy show, “The Half Hour News Hour,” debuted this week-end. Here’s the blow by blow breakdown of the opening show:

– The opening segment with Rush and Ann wasn’t terrible.

– Next was a news segment, which was so-so until they got to the book segment that was painfully, horribly bad. Additionally, it featured atrociously drawn book covers. Small detail, but it makes them look small-time and amateurish.

– There was an Anti-ACLU joke ad that should have been good, but wasn’t.

– Back with the news that led into the Barrack Obama bit that was released early. So-so.

– Ed Begley jokes about his electric car. It was OK.

– There was a T-Shirt guy bit. It had its moments, but would have been a lot better if it wasn’t so preachy and if one of the writers had stolen some material from The People’s Cube.

– Another fake ad featuring an actress talking about celebrity something or another. Lame.

– More of the Ed Begley bit. This was semi-funny.

– The Six degrees of global warming skit. This was the best part of the show. Fairly funny.

– Stop the ACLU commercial #2. Again, should have been good, wasn’t really.

– The Ed Begley bit continued. A little funny.

Summary: This show was not timely at all and at times you felt like their first priority was getting across a message, not making people laugh. Perhaps more importantly, this may be the least edgy show made since Leave it to Beaver. I don’t know if that’s because they think conservatives are easily offended or because the writers know Hollywood is run by liberals and they’re afraid if they really rip the left, they won’t be able to get jobs elsewhere.

I will say this, if the show doesn’t get a LOT FUNNIER than this, it’s doomed — and that’s from someone who wants the show to succeed and encouraged people not to rush to judgment last week.

(Newsmax) Bill Clinton, one of the most popular presidents with black voters, is hoping that popularity will rub off on his wife, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

On Sunday, he spoke to the annual meeting of the New York State Association of Black and Puerto Rican Legislators. The former president received a standing ovation while taking the stage.

“I know how come I’m here - I’m here because I’m a stand-in for Hillary,” he said.

He went on to talk briefly about health care, renewable energy technology and education. His wife has made affordable health care a priority in her campaign and has made a point of pushing for new energy technology during her tenure as New York’s junior senator.

“He’s one of those individuals that has a reputation as a liberator for minority communities,” said Lt. Gov. David Paterson, who is black and is backing Sen. Clinton for president. “Bill Clinton had a reputation for delivering. He does have a tremendous effect that I’ve observed when it comes to minority communities.”

While Bill Clinton “is somebody who has deep affection and respect in the minority community,” both Hillary Clinton and Illinois Sen. Barack Obama will still have to make their case to minority voters, said Donna Brazile, a longtime Democratic activist who ran Al Gore’s presidential campaign in 2000.

“Nobody can take the minority voters for granted this campaign,” she said.

Ok Snoop does not get many comments so when I do I’m like a kid opening a Christmas present, especially if the comment is from a left winger.

I wish more people would comment, but as I have said before I’m such a mean spirited Negro most sane people will just peek in at politicalpartypoop and try not to disturb the lunatic blog host. I’m really not that bad people, I take really good meds, I am much nicer than I use to be… NO SERIOUSLY, MUCH BETTER, just ask Mrs. Snoop. Anywho
I got this response from someone commenting about Global Warming.

Do you really think Global Warming is only going to make things balmier? It’s more complicated than that.

Storms will be getting worse and oh..they have. Worse hurricanes, tornadoes, and winter storms. We are changing the dynamics of the environment and if we put our heads in the sand or keep up with this right wing propaganda then we are lost. We need to think about our health and the health of future generations. It is happening now and what Al Gore and all “real” scientists are saying is we are at a tipping point.

We can change what we are doing and invest in alternative resources or not do anything and the world as we know it will be something very different in the future. That’s right…WHO GIVES A SHIT???

Let’s only care about now and let our children deal with it as they become adults.
It is about being responsible human beings and being informed. Who do you think tells all these lies about the environment? Those who have a huge interest in oil.

This is the perfect left wing comment, I don’t have to respond to it other than to say if you agree with this assessment and think we are at the “tipping point” and you find Al Gore and his movie credible I frankly feel sorry for you. You are suffering from a state of catastrophic mental lunacy.

Global Warming is a complete and utter fraud. And if you are watching crap like Al Gore’s movie or listening to MSM global warming scare stories and are being influenced to believe that the world is about the end any minute, considering most of the country has been suffering from record cold and snowfall and these credible scientist and MSM weather pundits won’t even bother to question “well is global warming real, what does all of this cold and misery mean?” 
Then you need good drugs and I’ll be happy to share with you. 

This from Little Green Footballs:  

A vintage nutroots whine, brought to you by the fellow travelers at Salon.com: Why I had to quit the John Edwards campaign, by Amanda Marcotte.

I announced that I was taking the job on Jan. 30, and the same week, I noticed a small flare-up of oddly aggressive and misogynistic comments in my moderation queue over a short, irritated post I wrote about the coverage of the Duke lacrosse rape case on CNN. I assumed that some anti-feminist blogger had linked me and so, in frustration, I went and rewrote my by-then week-old post to mock the commenters by spelling out my views in childish, easy-to-understand language. This may have been the first indication that the right-wing noise machine had noticed me and was looking for something with which to hurt me and my new employers.

A few days after my announcement, another in a series of inept sh*tstorms in the right-wing blogosphere came to my attention. Some vocal conservatives were accusing me of “scrubbing” my posting history at Pandagon, apparently on the theory that I was trying to hide inflammatory material. The evidence for this accusation was that I had mockingly rewritten a one-paragraph post, but since that was clearly not enough to get a real shitstorm going, there was a bevy of wild accusations that I had deleted much of the archives of Pandagon. What the right-wingers had really discovered was a very different, embarrassing secret. With all our server and software changes over the years, we at Pandagon had hopelessly scrambled and in fact deleted months and even years of the blog by accident. Some blog posts had funky URLs; others had the wrong author. We’d never fixed the problem because no one could figure out a way to do it that didn’t involve thousands of manual corrections.

Oh brother. Just the person who should be hired to manage a web site for a presidential candidate.

Found on the blog: Political Pit Bull, this is amazing, but I am not surprised. 

After being videotaped accepting a $100,000 cash bribe by the FBI and busted with $90,000 worth of loot in his freezer, Democratic Congressman William Jefferson–currently facing an ongoing federal corruption probe–is being awarded a seat on the House Homeland Security Committee.

The appointment will be announced Friday, according to one aide who requested anonymity because the decision isn’t yet official.

[…]

Other lawmakers were angling for the seat on Homeland Security, which was the last slot available on the panel, according to another Democratic aide.

The committee oversees the Homeland Security Department and its web of agencies designed to protect against terrorism on U.S. soil.

The committee has oversight of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which was widely panned for its response to Hurricane Katrina in Jefferson’s hometown of New Orleans.

As a member of the committee, Jefferson will not have direct oversight of the FBI or the Justice Department.

A former Jefferson aide has already pleaded guilty to corruption in the ongoing investigation, as has a businessman who alleged in his plea agreement that he bribed Jefferson in order to win contracts with African nations.

The most honest, ethical, and open Congress in history indeed!

Michelle Malkin has seen her head electronically grafted onto a photo of a bikini-clad body.

She had to cancel a Berkeley book signing in the face of 200 shouting protesters. 

YouTube banned one of her videos. And she felt compelled to move after critics posted online her Gaithersburg area address and pictures of her home.

Clearly, this is a woman who arouses strong emotions.

“They’ll ridicule my looks, ridicule my ethnicity, go after my family,” the 36-year-old blogger says of her critics. “They’ve attacked my husband relentlessly. There’s a strong sexist strain among my liberal critics, who think it isn’t possible I could have gotten anywhere without my Svengali husband, or some white man, embedding ideas in my head.”

Make no mistake, though: This daughter of Filipino immigrants plays pretty rough herself. Whether on her blog, her Internet talk show or her Fox News appearances, Malkin delights in sticking her finger in the eye of the liberal establishment. And she is convinced that her detractors don’t play fair.

“Particularly when you’re a minority conservative,” she says, “you get a lot of ugly, hysterical, unhinged attacks, because you’re challenging so many liberal myths about what people of color should think.”

Plenty of folks find Malkin’s rhetoric overheated as well. “The donkey party,” she wrote last fall, “is led by thumb-sucking demagogues in prominent positions who equate Bush with Hitler and Jim Crow, call him a liar in front of high school students and the world, fantasize about impeachment and fetishize the human rights of terrorists who want to kill me. Put simply: There are no grown-ups in the Democrat Party.”

Andrew Sullivan, a conservative blogger who has turned on the Bush administration, regularly bestows a “Malkin Award” for excessive attacks. “Sometimes you just can’t believe what she writes — it’s so out there, and in certain respects quite disgraceful,” he says.

At the same time, says Sullivan, “she’s been subjected to some pretty horrifying bigotry from the left, based on her gender and ethnicity and ugly stereotypes. You can’t engage in the kind of rhetoric she does and not expect some blowback.”

Is this merely how the war of ideas is waged in an anything-goes digital culture? Or is Malkin an especially inflammatory practitioner, torching her targets with such books as “Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild”?

Over lunch at a Filipino cafe at Union Station, Malkin, who has two young children, is charming one moment and pugnacious the next. She says she loves the intellectual freedom of the blogosphere, where “you can respond, you can reveal people to be the liars and slanderers they are.”

(CBS) QUEENS Jet Blue Airlines apologized late Wednesday to dozens of passengers who were kept sitting on planes at New York’s JFK Airport for 10 hours or more without ever taking off.

The airline said half of its 550 flights were cancelled because of a winter storm that also caused massive traffic and transit delays throughout the Tri-State area.

Ten JetBlue flights, however, were loaded with passengers on board. Some made it to the runways only to run into icing problems that kept them grounded. Some of the planes at the gate became frozen to the ground and passengers weren’t able to disembark.

One couple told CBS 2 News they thought they were about to honeymoon in Aruba. Others were dreaming of the sun and warm waters of Cancun. Instead, many said they felt like hostages being held on the tarmac.

“We had very limited toilet usage while we were on the plane,” said Elizabeth Regale, who logged 10 hours of what she described as hell on a trip to nowhere.

“To sit on a plane for that long to be pulled into a gate for nine hours was horrible,” said another passenger.

Political considerations color the divergent views of presidential candidates on whether the Confederate flag should be moved from the State House grounds.

For Republicans competing in the Feb. 2, 2008, GOP primary, where white voters will hold sway, the flag is a state issue that the candidates are not eager to discuss.

On the Democratic side, where half or more of the voters in the Jan. 29, 2008, primary will be black residents, candidates have no qualms about calling for the flag’s removal.

“Each side is playing to its basic constituency,” said Blease Graham, a political science professor at USC.

A 2000 legislative compromise moved the flag from the State House dome to the grounds, sparking questions about whether it should be removed entirely.

Among six top GOP contenders reached by The State, only U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., offered more than a suggestion that the issue should be decided by South Carolinians.

A Hunter spokesman, Roy Tyler, said his boss thinks South Carolinians should decide the issue, adding the congressman thinks the flag is fine where it flies.

“We’re talking about history here,” Tyler said. “We don’t think we should be slapping anybody’s history in the face.”

MCCAIN’S CHANGING POSITIONS

No candidate has been as wary of the flag issue as U.S. Sen. John McCain, the Arizona Republican whose 2000 campaign bus was dubbed the Straight Talk Express because he bluntly held forth on a number of issues, no matter how delicate.

But the Straight Talk Express took a detour when it ran into the flag. As he campaigned in the crucial S.C. Republican primary against then-Texas Gov. George W. Bush, McCain declined to be drawn into the flag debate, saying it was a matter for state officials to decide.

After he lost, McCain said he didn’t address the issue fully because “I feared that if I answered honestly, I could not win the South Carolina primary.”

McCain said he should have been more direct when asked about the flag, issuing a detailed statement noting his Confederate ancestry.

“Those ancestors of mine might have fought honorably, but they fought to sever the union of our great nation,” he said. “They fought on the wrong side of American history. That, my friends, is how I personally feel about the Confederate battle flag. That is the honest answer I never gave to a fair question. I believe the flag should be removed from your Capitol.”

Fast-forward seven years: McCain is no longer the maverick challenger. As his deep well of big-time GOP support in the state indicates, he is the establishment’s candidate this time.

Danny Diaz, a McCain spokesman, gave a brief statement when asked if the senator thinks the flag should be moved to a different location or remain where it flies.

“A bipartisan solution to this issue was developed by the General Assembly, and the senator applauds their efforts,” Diaz said.

Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, said the response of McCain and his fellow Republicans reflects the views of white GOP primary voters.

“Among white Republican primary voters, they either support the flag strongly or they don’t think it’s a big deal,” Sabato said. “It’s a classic case of a constituency driving candidate positions.”

Of McCain’s changing position, Sabato said: “That was when John McCain was running to win the media primary. Now, he’s running to win the Republican primary.”

‘FLAG IS NOT DIABETES’

Sabato and other political experts said the Confederate flag is a much easier issue for Democratic presidential candidates.

Seven top Democratic candidates reached by The State favor removing the flag from the State House grounds.

Lonnie Randolph, S.C. NAACP president, has argued for the flag’s removal, saying its location is an insult.

But some say other issues are more crucial.

Kendall Corley, a black staff worker for the Richland County Democratic Party, agrees with Randolph. But he wants the presidential candidates to address other pressing concerns.

“That flag is not high blood pressure,” Corley said. “That flag is not diabetes. That flag is not a lot of things that kill us every day.”

Still, some candidates may try to use the flag issue to score points with black voters, said Cleveland Sellers, head of USC’s African-American Studies program.

“But we have a sophisticated African-American electorate,” Sellers said. “They will be looking to learn how the candidates will address a variety of issues.”

WARNING SNOOP RANT!

This is such a silly topic.
Although I think flying the confederate flag on top of any building including the fucken state capital building is just retarded.
Nobody can convince me that the confederate flag is anything more than an idiot racist redneck symbol, period.
And I don’t want to hear any “heritage” bullshit either.
Back in the day black folks would wear African symbols and Africa necklaces in addition to Malcolm X stuff, having never been to Africa and not knowing a damm thins about Malcolm X.
White rednecks sporting the flag do it only as a fashion accessory.
 
Shit we might as well be flying communist flags or Japanese battle flags over capitals.
But it’s obvious to me that the black folks down there can’t do shit about it.
The state is I believe 38% black, you mean they can’t put together enough political and economic pressure to remove the damm thing? That says to me that there are not enough black folks who give a shit about the issue.

But having said all of that presidential candidates who weigh in on the issue and say anything other than IT THE STATES RESPONSIBILITY TO DECIDE, are full of shit.
Nothing points out the utter bullshit mentality of Democrats than those who say the flag should be removed.
Talk about playing politics and being totally insincere.
Do any of you really believe that any white presidential candidate or any white person outside the state of South Carolina really gives a shit, c’mon. 

(CBS4) MIAMI Former Miami Heat superstar Tim Hardaway told a local sports radio show that he “hates gay people,” and he’s gotten a lot of peoples’ attention especially in South Florida.

“Disgusting. Having grown up in northern florida, dealing with racism there and desegregating of schools up there,
it’s unfortunate you still hear things like that on the radio,” one man told CBS4’s Art Barron outside of a Coral Gables carwash that uses Hardaway’s name as a draw. The manager of the carwash was away and unavailable for comment.

Hardaway made the comments while he was being interviewed by Dan Le Batard on 790 the Ticket Wednesday afternoon.

The five time All Star was asked how he would deal with a gay teammate.

“First of all I wouldn’t want him on my team,” said Hardaway. “Second of all, if he was on my team I would really distance myself from him because I don’t think that’s right and I don’t think he should be in the locker room when we’re in the locker room.”

Le Batard took Hardaway to task, pointing out that his comments were ‘flatly homophobic’ and bigoted, but that only seemed to stir up the former point guard.

“Well, you know, I hate gay people,” Hardaway said in response to Le Batard. “I let it be known I don’t like gay people. I don’t like to be around gay people. I’m homophobic. It shouldn’t be in the world, in the United States, I don’t like it.”

Hardaway spoke to CBS4’s Sports Director Jim Berry Wednesday evening saying, “I don’t condone it. If people got problems with that, i’m sorry. I’m saying i can’t stand being around that person, knowing that they sleep with somebody of the same sex.”

Hardaway’s comments come on the heels of a groundbreaking revelation made by former player John Amaechi, who became the first professional basketball player to openly identify himself as gay.

Amaechi became only the sixth male atlhlete from one of the four major American sports (NBA,MLB,NFL,NHL) to admit he is gay.

Former NFL running back David Kopay , offensive lineman Roy Simmons and defensive lineman Esera Tuaolo just recently came out.

Glenn Burke, an outfielder for the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Oakland Athletics in the 1970s, and Billy Bean, a utility player in the 1980s and 1990s, have also come out.

No player has ever publicly admitted to being gay while currently playing for one of the four major American sports.

Now let me first say I don’t in any way condone what dude said, however I am just dumbfounded as to why people have an issue with what he said, dude was speaking his mind and he was expressing his honest opinion.
There are bastards who mutter to themselves all sorts of racial and ethnic biases.
I’m sure there are white folks all over the damm place uttering nigger this and nigger that but they must keep it quiet and hidden to mask their true disdain.

I have no problem with gay folks, as a dude I can’t grasp the concept of two nasty, hairy dudes rumbling and grumbling between the sheets, but that’s just me, “hating” someone or some lifestyle is just too mentally demanding.

I say I hate liberals, but that tis just me ranting, I do think most liberals are nuts but actually hating them is just counter productive. If there were a world without liberals what would I laugh at?

Hardaway unfortunately is just too stupid to realize that uttering “I hate gays” or “I hate niggers” is a career and public relations killer.

This is a story I found on the Politico 

*** 

As a white liberal running in a majority African American district, Tennessee Democrat Stephen I. Cohen made a novel pledge on the campaign trail last year: If elected, he would seek to become the first white member of the Congressional Black Caucus.

Now that he’s a freshman in Congress, Cohen has changed his plans. He said he has dropped his bid after several current and former caucus members made it clear to him that whites need not apply.

“I think they’re real happy I’m not going to join,” said Cohen, who succeeded Rep. Harold Ford, D-Tenn., in the Memphis district. “It’s their caucus and they do things their way. You don’t force your way in. You need to be invited.”

Cohen said he became convinced that joining the caucus would be “a social faux pas” after seeing news reports that former Rep. William Lacy Clay Sr., D-Mo., a co-founder of the caucus, had circulated a memo telling members it was “critical” that the group remain “exclusively African-American.”

Other members, including the new chairwoman, Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, D-Mich., and Clay’s son, Rep. William Lacy Clay, D-Mo., agreed.

“Mr. Cohen asked for admission, and he got his answer. … It’s time to move on,” the younger Clay said. “It’s an unwritten rule. It’s understood. It’s clear.”

The bylaws of the caucus do not make race a prerequisite for membership, a House aide said, but no non-black member has ever joined.

Rep. Pete Stark, D-Calif., who is white, tried in 1975 when he was a sophomore representative and the group was only six years old.

“Half my Democratic constituents were African American. I felt we had interests in common as far as helping people in poverty,” Stark said. “They had a vote, and I lost. They said the issue was that I was white, and they felt it was important that the group be limited to African Americans.”

Cohen remains hopeful, though, that he can forge relationships with black members in other ways.

“When I saw the reticence, I didn’t want anyone to misunderstand my motives. Politically, it was the right thing to do,” he said. “There are other ways to gain fellowship with people I respect.”

Cohen won his seat in the 60 percent black district as the only white candidate in a crowded primary field. If he faces a primary challenge next year from a black candidate, as expected, some Black Caucus members may work to defeat him.

A similar situation arose in 2004 after redistricting added more black voters to the Houston district of former Rep. Chris Bell, D-Texas.

Although House tradition discourages members of the same party from working against each other, about a dozen black lawmakers contributed to Bell’s opponent, Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, the eventual victor. Even Bell’s Houston neighbor, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, campaigned against him.

One black member who criticized his colleagues for sandbagging Bell was Cohen’s predecessor, Harold Ford.

“You have an incumbent, and you don’t support an incumbent? It was inappropriate,” Ford told Congressional Quarterly in 2004.

Cohen has won high marks for hiring African Americans. A majority of his staff is African American, he said, including his chief of staff.

Now I don’t necessarily give a shit about the article because I have ZERO respect for the Congressional Black Caucus, let me repeat ZERO RESPECT.
They are a bunch of poverty pushing idiot old school Negros still living in the civil rights era.
Black folks like to be part of groups so they can throw meaningless parties and pre 
What I found amusing were these comments among others:

To those of you that see the Congressional Black Cacus as a racist group I have this to say: We as African-Americans would not have started this group if White America was not ignorant to the needs of the Black Community. If White America would stop being racist and start living in 2007 and realize we are more then just field hands, then the country would be a better place.
 
Why would Herr Cohen seek to join the CBC, AIPAC isn’t enough for him? It’s like Farrakhan joining Bnai Brith…some of you whites who feel that it is your manifest destiny to rule the world seem to want to forget that you’re only 40 years removed from lynching Negroes much like your government lynched Saddam Hussein.
Get a grip white people……if blacks are racist they learned it from you and your racist double standards.   

Ya know I really like being a black guy, despite some disadvantages. But when I read retarded shit like this I’m like….DAMM.
I know there are lots of idiot hillbillies redneck white folks out there but they tend to stay away from trying to string complete sentences together to highlight their nonsense.
But when I read shit like this from “Black Rednecks” I just shake my head.
Note to white people, we all don’t think alike, and some of us don’t give a shit that a white guy wants to join the CBC.
It certainly would not hurt the I.Q. average of that bunch. 

From Michelle Malkin
Sen. Barack Obama’s nutroots are showing. RedStateLady has the video of Obama arguing that each and every member of the military who volunteered to serve and died in Iraq wasted his/her life:

Hey I have a note for Hussein, why don’t you do your staff and your delusional supporters a favor and not WASTE their time with this futile presidential run.
The more you open your mouth the more your credibility will drift away.
People will come to see clearly that you are just another idiot liberal throwing out a bunch of stupid rhetoric.
Our soldiers’ lives were not “wasted” and any idiot presidential candidate that even utters such a reference does not deserve to be “Commander in Chief,” so fuck off.

From Drudge, Although I HATE cold weather with a passion, over the past month or so as the temps have dipped into the single digits, I have to laugh and I keep wondering where the hell is Al Gore and the global warming retards.
I want these brilliant scientists to explain why the fuck my driveway has been ice covered for over a month. (In case you did not know black folks won’t clean off their driveways, we hate cold and ice).
And when is that Global Warming concert?

IT MINUS 3 HERE IN LAWRENCE, KANSAS WHAT THE HELL!!

NY TIMES edit queen Maureen Dowd unloads on Barack Obama in her Wednesday filing.

On the trail in Iowa, Dowd writes: “Obama’s so slender his wedding band looked as if it was slipping off… there was a wariness in his dark eyes.”

When a reporter asked him Obama whether he’d had a heater in his podium during his announcement speech in subzero Springfield, Obama hesitated.

Dowd slings: “He shot a look that said, ‘Are you from PEOPLE magazine?’ before conceding that, unlike Abe Lincoln, he’d had a heater.”

Dowd describes Obama as a “tad testy” as he was “traipsing around desolate stretches of snowy — and extremely white — Iowa.”

Obama had “moments of looking conflicted.”

Dowd claims that no fewer than three times last week, Obama got indignant about the beach-babe attention given to a shot of him in the Hawaiian surf.

“You’ve been reporting on how I look in a swimsuit,” Obama lectured a reporter.

Dowd snaps: “He poses for the cover of MEN’S VOGUE and then gets huffy when people don’t treat him as Hannah Arendt.”

 So this is what El Borak is talking about, oh god this is funny. Man like I said I have been so busy and with my blog crapping out I have not listened to any news over the past 3 days.
Also anybody who has visited my little world know I love pictures, my entire picture folder is gone vanished, kaput!
So unfortunately I will have shit loads of old posts with my pictures gone, so I have to start over. Oh well.
Here is the idiot liberal blogger story.
I again am reminded that I thank God I’m not a liberal!!! 

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — A second blogger working for Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards quit Tuesday under pressure from conservative critics who said her previous online messages were anti-Catholic.

Melissa McEwan wrote on her personal blog, Shakespeare’s Sister, that she left the campaign because she was becoming increasingly uncomfortable with the level of attention focused on her and her family.

“This was a decision I made, with the campaign’s reluctant support, because my remaining the focus of sustained ideological attacks was inevitably making me a liability to the campaign,” McEwan said Tuesday night.

Kate Bedingfield, a spokeswoman for the Edwards campaign, said McEwan left the campaign under her own terms. Both Bedingfield and McEwan declined additional comment.

McEwan’s resignation came just one day after another blogger, Amanda Marcotte, left the Edwards staff for similar reasons.

Both had become a flashpoint for conservative critics. Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, called Marcotte and McEwan “foul-mouthed bigots” for remarks he deemed anti-Catholic. Last week, Donohue called on Edwards to fire both bloggers.

Edwards, a former North Carolina senator, responded that he considered the bloggers’ past writings personally offensive and added that similar content would not be tolerated. But he decided to keep Marcotte and McEwan on staff to give them “a fair shake.”

“We’re beginning a great debate about the future of our country, and we can’t let it be hijacked,” Edwards said in a statement last week.

Donohue had promised a nationwide public relations campaign in newspapers, magazines and Catholic publications in an effort to rid the Edwards campaign of the two bloggers. The Catholic League counts 350,000 members.

McEwan and Marcotte have stressed that the content and opinions on their personal blogs are in no way a reflection of the Edwards campaign.

In one posting, McEwan described Christian supporters of
