60! Six Zero! Al Franken Finally “Elected”

Un-freakin- believable that this has been held up for so long, leaving the folks in Minnesota without representation from their elected Senator. Well – the good news is that the Senate now has a 60 Seat Democrat majority which could stymie Republican efforts to derail progress. Let’s hope they use it soon to correct some [...]

Young, Gifted, and Black #2,999,993

You know – as much as conservatives and their black acolyte Uncle Toms try and beat black folks down by constantly haranguing about that portion of the black population which doesn’t do well, or is failing… Every day, we have standouts like the Stephen Allsop. NCCU Scholar Wins Coveted Goldwater Math and Science Award By [...]

Rev Long Legged Mack Daddy (Other -Brother) is At it Again!

Here he goes again! This time on Michael Jackson’s funeral – demanding President Obama bump the Jackson family out of the way and take a front row seat! You know – I now think I know what happened to Geraldine after Flip Wilson passed away!

Uncle Tommie Clarence… Again.

If you think this is about Ricci – You’re wrong (mostly). The election of a black President of the United States has sent shock waves through the ever shrinking conservative Republican community. The sort of thing not seen in this country since 1929 when the Stock Market Crash resulted in folks jumping out of windows [...]

Did I miss Something… Is Madoff Black?

150 years… 150 YEARS? So much for Jewish people having become white. Bernie Madoff got more years for his massive white collar crime than your average black person gets for having a gram of crack cocaine… And near as much as for being black while having two grams. Damn… This is a first. Maybe the [...]

King David and the Argentine Firecracker

Can the Mark Sanford “affair” get any crazier? I mean spouting Bible verses to justify making booty calls… On two continents! Sanford has said he would pay back an undisclosed amount for the nine-day trip to Brazil and Argentina for which taxpayers paid $12,000 last year. That includes $8,687 for Sanford’s plane ticket, and $453 [...]

Sanctifying Genocide

I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again – the “Pro-Life” movement is more accurately called the Pro-Genocide movement. Why? Because their support of “life” is narrowly confined to abortion. The fact that 10,000 or more black babies die a year due to substandard prenatal healthcare, another 10,000 die in the first year – [...]

Mad Michelle – Looney Tune Bachmann At It Again!

Mad Michelle, AKA Looney-Tune Bachmann – The Congresswoman from Minnesota who single handedly has established that not only do you not need a college degree – mental illness is no impediment to serving in Congress – is at it again!

The Devil Made Him Do It! Mark Sanford

In case you didn’t know it – the recent spate of Republican legislators being caught with their pants down with (men and) women (thank goodness it’s not children this time) other than their wives… Is Obama’s Fault! What’s a poor, pitiful, out of power religious conservative to do? Some folks turn to wine or drugs [...]
