Paranoid and not smoking

Every time President Obama gives a speech, I feel as if I am being followed. In his speech last night the president mentioned two things important to me: 1. Being able to access broadband from my rural home. I currently drive 10 miles one way to access broadband. There is a fiber optic line in front of my home since Katrina. 2. Solving our dependency on oil without polluting our nation. I refuse to become of the group that will turn this nation into China for a dollar. Then again China is investing in its transportation infrastructure. We have people in the country, mainly Congress, who refuse to invest in our infrastructure. Why are we limiting ourselves? Why have we turned our lives over to these experts on public policy? Congress has ceased to represent all of the people. It was with hilarity that I reviewed Mitch Daniels' rebuttal to the State of the Union. Mitch Daniels served in the Bush Administration. Mitch is part of the group that created the mess we are in today. It is disingenuous for him to even suggest the feasibility of President Obama being able to rectify the economic mess left by the Bush Administration. One would expect more from the Budget Director of the Bush Administration. Then again should one expect more? Mitch continued the fear mongering ways of the Bush Administration in his rebuttal. Mitch stated Obama was attempting to divide Americans. However, I can think of no greater divide than the one created by the Bush Administration's war on Islam. We have rational Americans attempting to reach across the canyon of hatred, created by the Bush administration against Islam, to once rational Americans now scared witless. Which brings me back to my point. I am think the president is following me. Be very careful of what you post on the internet if you do not plan to stand behind your words. I on the other hand mean all that I write at the time that I write it. I need broadband at my home and I refuse to sell out my nation or the people in it. Write Congress today. Please write Congress in support of the President, in support of our nation, and in support of Americans not making 20 million per year. Please review the links. Reviewing the links makes my rants seem less crazy. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/highlights-president-obama-2012-state-union-address-000338337.html http://news.yahoo.com/fact-check-obama-pushes-plans-flopped-025127285.html http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/ticket/mitch-daniels-president-obama-divided-america-stifled-growth-014315412.html http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online/Lahore/09-Jul-2011/China-to-implement-mass-transit-project http://cn.siemens.com/cms/cn/English/TS/Mobility/Press/Pages/SH,NO,ZZmetroline.aspx

Black Lightning is more than ready for prime time

Black Lightning It is finally here.   I do mean finally for I have been waiting for seems to be ages (1977).   I am calling for a second season having only watched the first two episodes.   I am not sure of the level of involvement Tony Isabella & Trevor Von Eeden in the production of each episode.     The first two I enjoyed, did I say that already?   The first two episodes seems to have been packed with every issue seen in mainstream media and think pieces regarding the Black community.   This posting is not a think piece. It is my piss piece.   Before I touch on the piss, thanks, many thanks, to Salim and Mara Akil for making it happen. Black Lighting   opens with a Black parent, once again, having to bail a child out of jail for exercising his/her right of protest in the USA. We need to question why peaceful protests with no guns see protestors arrested. Please do not take I am saying people of color should have guns at protest marches.   We would be shot before the

White Boys Whine

Quick  and dirty   Star Trek  Discovery  is everything  I  thought  it would  be.  It is my hope the White  boys  chill the fuck out .  There will be a White male captain .   The Black  woman  will be of a lowered  status.  White  boys  are you appeased ? My personal  view fuck White  boys who had their dicks in a vise  over women  of color  at the helm of a fictional  space vessel.  I shall watch  Star Trek  Discovery .  I shall pay the fee to CBS Access  with joy. If you wanted to watch OITNB you paid  Netflix . Overall  I look  forward  to the day a fictional  show  that features  women  of color  in prominent  positions  doesn't  freak out White males.  They were  so freaked  out  they compared  The Orville  to Star Trek  Discovery .  Guys chill out ,  future  happens .

Y'all should eat my grits no cheese

It is two days after the GOP primary in Mississippi. We are still laughing at Mitt's attempt to cuddle up to us with cheesy grits and a few y'alls thrown in. In my area of Mississippi it is yaw'all(10 second word). Had he come here expecting us to be able to count to 20 without removing our shoes, he may have been taken a little bit more seriously. I am not sure if Mitt's grits ranks with Bush's "this part of the world" statement after Katrina but it ranks. Truthfully, I enjoy cheese in my grits along with garlic and red pepper. However, I do not think my love of grits, a bowl every morning, makes me Southern. Although I was born in Southern California and partially reared in Southern Wisconsin, I consider myself a full blown Mississippian. Along with keeping my grits to myself, I also speak without care of accent. The fact that I can tell you how to get from Memphis to the Coast without using the interstate or Google says I am from Mississippi.
