Support America's First Responders!

Wow. We said we would never forget. The rich got their tax cuts, but they want to reduce (nice word for terminate) firefighters and other first responders as well as cut their pensions.

First responders risk their lives every day for you and me. The top 5% richest people in this country don't need these tax cuts or deserve them. Is this fair?

Support your first responders! Post this on your blog or facebook. Tweet it, stumble it and email it to your friends and family!

Rush Limbaugh Wants President Obama to Fail

Rush Limbaugh is only interested in getting press, even if it's negative. He's a shock jock. It's unfortuante how he would prefer to bring strife among Americans, then to help bring this nation to a better place. His listeners should realize he is using them. He's not being effected by America's economic struggles. His listeners should realize that he is just trying to be a drama king and instigate trouble to keep his ratings up.

There's something he needs to realize.
We are not going to let President Obama fail. We will band together and help wherever we can, whatever it takes. This is our America. It's not exclusive to conservatives.

Rush Limbaugh is a negative force. He uses religion in a negative way. The only difference between his behavior and the behavior of muslim extremists is the violence.

I'm a born again Christian and I don't subscribe to his point of view. He doesn't speak for all of us, just the ones that use religion as a front to spew hatred.

I'm disgusted with his behavior. However, we live in America. We believe in freedom of speech.

Listen to Rush Limbaugh as he says he wants President Obama to fail.

What is Up With These Governors?

What is up with some of these governors? They remind me of MacBeth, with his false sense of security and invincibility. They really think they are invincible. The joke is on them.

Gov. Jim McGreevey admitted to infidelity and a homosexual relationship. He wasn't sorry either. I'm sure his wife was sorry...that she married him. At least she got a beautiful daughter out of it. Here's the long dragged out resignation. I couldn't even get through it the first time. I posted it anyway, in case you want to watch it.


Remember Gov. Elliot Spitzer? He as cleaning up all the corruption and closing down prostitution rings. SuperMan was he? He thought so. All the while, he was going through great lengths to arrange his trysts. He made lots of enemies, which didn't help him later on. He got caught and forced to step down. I watched Elliot Spitzer's apology (or what I call his little song and dance). Felt sorry for his wife. I don't believe for a second he was sorry for his actions, but he was sure sorry he got caught.



That's nothing compared to Gov. Blagojevich. What the? In case you missed it, this is what he said the day before he was arrested:


He's arrogant and definitely has a false sense of security. He gets arrested one day, gets out the next day and goes back to work! As if nothing happened?! Distorted perception of reality, much?

This guy's ship is sinking fast. I have a feeling, he's going to try to take as many people down with him as he possibly can.

Who needs to watch soaps? American politics is much more entertaining. Besides, you couldn't make this stuff up.

The saga continues...

Should Wall Street Employees Get Bonuses From Your Tax Dollars?

Do you think that it's fair for your tax dollars to be used for million dollar bonuses? The firms that are were bailed out by our government with our tax dollars will be doing just that. Why? They believe talent should be rewarded or they will go elsewhere. No one is saying they shouldn't get paid, if they only get one check a year. Seriously though, their perfermance was less than stellar. Actually, is was downright dismal. Should they be rewarded with bonuses for having your tax dollars go to bailing out their greed?

What if your performace at your job was as dismal as theirs? Would you get a million dollar bonus? Would you get fired? Think about it and leave a comment.

Bailout money will go to CEO bonuses

Black President by Nas Supports Obama's Candidacy

One of my kids came home excited about a song they heard at school that Nas sang supporting Senator Obama. I did a search on Google and found it. I had to share it with all of you. The following is the song Black President by Nas. You can find the lyrics to Black President by Nas, below the video.



Nas-Black President


They forgot us on the block
Got us in the box
Solitary confinement
How violent are these cops?
They need an early retirement
How many rallies will I watch?
I ain't got it in me to march
I got a semi to spark
The game's in a drought
Public housing, projects
Cooking up in the Pyrex
My set, my click
Either getting money
Or running from homicide trial
That's if they ain't died yet
Trying to be rich
Still I'm pledging allegiance
A predicate felon, a ghetto leader
Lending my poetical genius
To whoever may need it
I bleed this from Queensbridge
Now living with my feet up
Never defeated
So a president's needed
Y'know these colored folks and Negroes
Hate to see one of their own succeeding
America, suprise us
And let a black man guide us

What's the black pres thinkin on election night
Is it how can I protect my life?
Protect my wife? Protect my rights?
Every other president was nottin' less than white
'Cept Thoman Jefferson and mixed indian blood
And calvin coolers
KKK is like 'what the fuck', loadin' they guns up
I'm loadin' mine too, Ready to ride
Cause I'm ridin with my crew
He dies we die too
But on a positive side, I think Obama provides
Hope and challenges minds
Of all races and colours to erase the hate
And try and love one another, so many political snakes
We in need of a break, I'm thinkin' I can trust this brotha
But will he keep it way real?
Every innocent n! gga in jail gets out on appeal
When he wins will he really care still?
I feel

Say a prayer for "do we have to? "
You ain't right, Jeremiah Wrong pastor
In love with a slave master
Sincerely yours
USA most brave rapper
Jesse carjacker
Uncle Tomkidnapper
Ask around
Bentley Coupe off the richter
B! tchcalledlife, I pimped her
What?
Politics, politricks
Klanshooter
Deacon for defense
Progressproducer
Nothing on the stove
Your survivalbooster
Gotta do what we gotta do
We ain't got no governors coming through to help
Anything we need done, we gotta do for self
Newimproved JFK on the way
It ain't the 60's again
Niqqas ain't hippies again
We ain't falling for the same traps
Standing on the balconies
Where they shot the King at
McCain got apologies
Ain't nobody hearing that

Five Things We Learn from Jim Silante's Prayer at the GOP Dinner

Watch Jim Silante's Prayer at GOP Dinner-May29-2008
Watch this priest turned politician to understand my rant.


Leave it to the GOP to turn a "prayer" into a political rant. Hello? Just because he told everyone to bow their heads in prayer, doesn't mean it was a prayer. The words he arrogantly uttered were in the form of a speech. He was using notes. I attended Catholic School from 1-12. I became a born again Christian in 1991. I've sat in pews for years. I know the difference between a speech and a prayer.

Here are a few things Jim Silante showed Americans:
1. Jim Silante and the GOP are clueless about the issues faced in the US especially urban areas. Why would you mock the idea that this country needs change? This country does need change. Don't know why? Watch these two videos and you'll get a clear picture.
Why West Virginians won't vote for Senator Obama.
Perhaps people with a little more education have different views, right? We would all hope so. Here's Liza Trotta on FoxNews remarking that Osama and Obama should both be killed.

2. Jim Silante admitted : "There is a decent chance that" Barack Obama may be the next president of the United States. Guess what? You just confirmed that Barack Obama is a threat to your candidate.
3. Jim Silante and his party will use any means necessary, even "prayer" to get their desired results. Smear tactics and fear mongering will not work on everyone. Many people do their homework and research the truth about the countless email that circulate spreading lies about Senator Obama.

4. Jim and the GOP must know many people aren't drinking the Kool Aid. With the huge spike in voter registration and primary turnouts they have to accept people are actually looking beyond their own lives and awakening to their social responsibility and power.

5. Jim Silante and his party are out of touch. Here's one of your biggest supporters proving that GOP supporters are COMPLETELY OUT OF TOUCH with the minorities and poor of America.
Bill O'Reilly is shocked that a black restaurant is just like every other restaurant in NY. No, really....


Thanks for the "prayer". It was a real eye opener...
