Then Ronald Reagan must have broken up Shalamar?

Rush Limbaugh says Michael Jackson "flourished under Reagan," "languished under Clinton," "died under Obama"

Can’t a man spend some time with his woman?

Why can’t a man take his woman out to see a play? Would the Republican National Committee like it better if he was riding horses on a ranch? Poor Michael Steele, he is too busy fighting for his job to take his wife out.

Give me a break!

Lawd have mercy. It's time to stop the foolishness and get real. This is a woman who has no knowledge of the issues and only memorizes talking points. I work in PR and can clearly tell when someone is throwing taking points. It's a difference when they are used in the context of a conversation, but when all you are doing is regurgitating them like Pathetic Palin, it is clear that you have no clue what you are talking about.

Check out this video. When she begins talking, you can clearly tell that she has memorized a series of sentences. Listen to how fast she is talking! And now you need McCain to sit next to you to make sure that you don't screw up and telling her to hold on before she answers the question so he can say something? This is a hot ass mess and they both make me sick.

I am so ready for Thursday. Joe Biden is going to shut her down (in a respectful way)! He must be very careful. Joe likes to say the first thing that comes to his mind. That's a great quality about him, but he can't do that in this debate.

Stop The Foolishness!

What the hell is going on with this woman. She's so confused she does not know whether to scratch her watch or wind her ass. Stop the foolishness right now!

July: A Month of Black Folk Foolishness

July was a big month for black folks. We had the CNN Black in America special that was going to show America the lives of African Americans. This was going to be an event of gigantic proportions. As Citizen Wifey’s friend would say “An Extravaganza”

Instead of bringing America together, the special pissed off black and white folks. Black folks were mad because they felt they weren’t portrayed in a positive light. White folks posted racist words to the CNN Black in America site. I thought my fellow black female bloggers were going to pull a drive by on Soledad O’Brien. I’ve noticed that I haven’t seen her since the special came out. I guess she is in the TV anchor witness protection program. In all the grand advertising for this special, we missed Traces of the Trade: A story from the Deep North on PBS. I think we can come to the conclusion that you can’t talk about black folks in 4 hours. Realistically, you have to give at least give 2 hours to Old Dirty Bastard, R Kelly and Rick James.

Marion Jones was doing the Anne Frank writing thing behind bars. It’s good to see her doing something constructive with her time. She sent word to President Bush requesting an early release i.e. Clemency. At one time she might have been the fastest woman in the world, but she sure is the slowest in picking men. That’s partly the reason she is doing her 6 month bid. Running with the wrong dudes and being introduced to the wrong stuff. She must didn’t watch any of those ABC after school specials growing up. I don’t know what the fuss is anyway it’s only 6 months. Like they say on The Wire, “there are only two days in prison, the day you come in and the day you leave.”

Ludacris joined the long list of black folks that Barack Obama has to apologize for. He came out with a song called “Politics.” I guess he was gearing up for the fall election and wanted to show his love for Obama.

Let’s look at some choice lyrics from his new jam -

Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president Hillary hated on you, so that b^$&%* is irrelevant

so get off you’re a**, black people, it's time to get out and vote!paint the White House black and I'm sure that's got 'em terrifiedMcCain don't belong in ANY chair unless he's paralyzed

Can you believe black folks are really upset about this? Who did you think Luda was Francis Scott Key? Ludacris has made money off of songs with the titles “P**** Poppin”, “Move B*****”, “Pimpin’ all over the world”, “Hoes in my room”, “Ho”, and everyone’s favorite “Area Codes” where the chorus goes “I got Hoes in different area codes”. Someone should have told him that you can’t call white women a B**** in your songs. That’s a No! No! They’ll let you talk about black women all day, but not white women. It’s in his recording contract at the bottom in small print.

We don’t need to talk about Rev. Jesse Jackson because everything has already been said. I just can’t believe they buried the “N” word and then dug it right back up. Kramer is somewhere calling all of us the “N” word because Jesse guilted him into apologizing for using it.

Ron Artest, another fine young African America role model for our youth, was at it again. His explanation for his odd behavior he says “It’s because he’s ghetto.” I’m glad he cleared that up with an intelligent and articulate explanation. I thought he was as the old folks say “Touched” and he couldn’t help himself. It’s good that we know the truth now.

The grand moment of the month came from a report out of New York City. A man was murdered because he danced with a woman at a party. Now I really feel better that I stood on the wall at my middle school dances. God forbid if I knew how to dance I might have ended up being a target.

The month of July will be one for the books. I can’t wait to see what we do in August to top this month.

McCain supporter shows his ignorance

Texting in the name of love

Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, “The Ladies Favorite Superdelegate", was charged with perjury and obstruction of justice due to a contradiction in a sworn court testimony. His woman on the side, former Chief of Staff Christine Beatty, was also charged for the same thing. Reading from my Legal Aid for Dummies book: Basically the two lied about having sex with each other.

They probably would have never been caught if Kwame had not texted Christine on his city-owned phone. For a guy that calls himself the “Hip Hop Mayor” he sure is dumb. Season 5 of The Wire showed you that text messages could be tapped.
