Velma Hart told tales out of school. Uh oh!!!

I learned something from President Obama’s town hall on CNBC this week. The Democrats are in trouble!!!!! Organizing for America won’t be able to email their way out of this one. Velma Hart spoke up and said what a lot of people are afraid to say. The words “I’m exhausted of defending you,” wasn’t a made up statement. They are words that are spoken in silence by many of Obama’s supporters. The last 2 years have been a doozy. How did we go from “Hope and Change” to this?


On Tuesday, Andre Egleshon sat in for Reverend Al Sharpton on his radio show. Apparently Egleshon was upset with Hart for speaking her mind. He blasted her for putting Obama on the spot. Every time he stands in for Sharpton he spends his time praising Obama. Egleshon must be trying to get a job in the Obama Administration. Too bad for him - Obama has already hit his black quota for new hires. I’m sick of black folks dissing other blacks because they aren’t kissing black politicians behinds. Black folks are not monolithic and we should be able to speak our minds. Hart voted for Obama so she has no interest in seeing him fail (how ignorant would that be if she did??). Every other black is afraid to say something for fear of losing their “Black Card.” Black folks have rested on Symbolism and have lowered expectations for our politicians. Instead of “Real Change” blacks are hoping that they can get the pot hole in the street filled. You question black folks on Obama Administration policies and all they can tell you is how good 1st Lady Michelle Obama looked on TV. Really??


Every other race and gender is knocking on Obama’s door. Anytime black folks try to speak to Obama they get dirty looks from other blacks. It seems blacks have to suffer in silence in order to keep the symbolism going. I know that Obama is the head of the American Empire so he has to look out for everyone. I get it!! I wish black folks would stop saying that to calm the waters. No one is telling the Latinos, Gays and Jews to stop pressing Obama. People look out for their self-interests in politics. That’s how the game is played (fortunately and unfortunately). Everyone else is playing “Chess” while black folks are playing “Tunk.” The Democrats are going to be in a world of hurt this November. The White House gambled on making the economy a quaternary priority and now they are paying for it. You have some Democrats that won’t even get near Obama in fear of losing their elections. Republicans ran from President Bush in his last years!! Wow! The Democrats are starting early!! Obama’s opposition is fired up and ready to take him on. His support staff never saw this backlash coming. But then again they don’t have experience dealing with a black man that’s president. I guess they figured if they run from black folks and call out Glenn Beck they will be okay.


The Democrats should use Velma Hart as a voting barometer for this November. The new voters that became Democrats weren’t doing it to be Democrats. They wanted to be Obamacrats. A lot of loser Democrats rode into office on Obama’s coat tails in 2008. If they were on their own, they would have never made it past the primary. So imagine if voters are feeling “Some Kinda Way” about Obama now….well you can figure out what will happen in November.

Something Phishy going on in Philly

A week ago, fliers went up in predominantly African-American neighborhoods of Philadelphia warning that people with outstanding warrants or unpaid parking tickets could be arrested if they show up at the polls. Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Everett Gillison, plans to put up statements on the city and police Web sites to let citizens know that the handouts are false. He said that he also will record a public-service announcement for broadcast. This is similar to a 2002 Maryland gubernatorial election, where anonymous fliers in African-American communities warned people to pay parking tickets and resolve outstanding warrants before heading to the polls

Down and Out in Macomb County

“We will have a list of foreclosed homes and will make sure people aren’t voting from those addresses,” Macomb County Republican Party Chairman James Carabelli

The Republicans should go into the magic business, because they are forever pulling a trick out of their butt. Since the hanging chads in Florida, they have been trying to manipulate the voting process. If intimidation doesn’t work, they always have Clarence “Uncle” Thomas and the rest of the hanging judges in their back pockets. This latest con is so brilliant that I even have to tip my hat to it. They are going to keep people that lost their homes to foreclosure from voting. The Macomb County Republican Party is doing this, because they want to keep the voting process honest and fair. Anytime a Republican uses the word fair, I think of a slave running from dogs with his arm tied behind his back.

I know a conservative person might be reading this and think that I’m unfair. They will probably say that I am biased and I’m in the tank for Obama. Well after looking at the Republican convention, I saw that they were sending minorities a message. No minorities allowed!!!! So am I biased… probably, but no more than the Republican National Party. So am I in the tank for Obama….I support him. I don’t agree with all of his views, but he is my candidate of choice. I hope no one thought that this blog was like Fox News (Fair and Balanced) ha ha ha ha. The reason I have this blog is so I can give my opinion on topics of the day. It might come off at times that I am hard on conservatives. That’s only because I don’t want to revert back to Jim Crow laws. With this voter suppression in Michigan that’s exactly where we are headed.

The part that the Republican Party is leaving out is that most of the foreclosures would be African American homeowners. So we are talking about African Americans that typically vote for a Democrat losing their right to vote. Mmmmmmmmm! Is this just a coincidence that many sub-prime loans, which are more likely to be sold to minorities, are going to go into default and keep African Americans from voting? If it is a coincidence then O.J. Simpson is back dating Sistas again.

For all those individuals that thought this election was going to be different, you must be out of your damn mind!!! This race was set up to be the nastiest thing since a Flavor Flav sex tape. Now defenseless homeowners are going to be used as pawns in this vicious election. I hope there is a legal way to fight this foolishness because I don’t want anyone who is eligible to vote get screwed.
