Monday Morning Meanderings

Blagojevich/Burris

Like it or not....and I don’t...Roland Burris was legally selected to replace Barack Obama as Senator. Blago is still the sitting Governor of Illinois. Until he is stripped of his powers, he has every right to appoint whoever...
However....I think Roland Burris is an idiot for allowing himself to be used like this. Bobby Rush has simply lost his mind....This fight is more than about whether one black man should replace another black man in the Senate.

Ann Coulter

Has reared her peroxided head again...must be book publishing time....Ya’ll need to stop calling her a drag queen, because that is an ugly insult to real drag queens...Some of the most beautiful people I know are drag queens....She is simply not pretty enough to even be considered for that auspicious designation.

Black Women Shrinking

Ran across an article last week says, black women are getting smaller. Not in my neighborhood. But you can read it here.

Another article says women in general are happiest when they wear a size 14 dress. Really?
Check it out.

Automatic Raise number 999

As Obama ponders giving us poor people some monetary relief, Congress gave itself a $4700.00 pay raise. They made it automatic several years ago, so that if by some chance they want NOT to take a raise, a new law has to be passed. Think of all the money saved if Congress forgoes its annual dip into the honeypot. I think their raise should be performance based, too....I want to sit on that board...

Muslims, the New Negroes

I hope that family put off the plane by AirTran, sues the hell out of the company. Still think we live in a post racial world, now that Obama is in Washington?

Gaza

Still fighting. I thought Bush promised us a cease-fire in that part of the world before he leaves office.

And why is Condi so happy these days...girl has been cheezin’ in every picture lately. Maybe she did vote for Obama. I don’t believe it for a minute. She’s still standing behind her guy.

Monday Musings and Pre Xmas Wanderings....

He Got HOW MUCH!

The CEO of Merrill Lynch, some guy I’ve never heard of, whose firm was one of those bailed out by us taxpayers, got an 86 million dollar paycheck...

That’s 57-thousand plus in salary.....15 million in signing bonus...and 68 million in stock options.

We, the taxpayers gave Merrill Lynch more than 10 billion dollars back in October...

Am I the only one feeling like an all day sucker....We should change the name from the United States of America to The Lollipop Guild, because we definitely aren’t in Kansas, anymore

Ya’ll Done Lost Ya’ll Minds, Part 538

Who the hell wants a doll, that can take a dump? You heard me...They’re selling a doll this xmas that shits....It comes with its own special food of green beans and bananas to make it totally realistic for the little girl gifted with this creation. There is even a warning label on the box that says this doll may soil your furniture...because...sometimes it can “hold it” til it reaches the potty....but sometimes, it can’t...

I am absolutely convinced that this “toy” was created by a man, who never took care of his kids or had to change diapers.....

Every woman knows that the worst thing about babies is that they shit and throw up way too much....c’mon now.....

The weirdest thing about this story in today’s Washington Post...is that Baby Alive is flying off the shelves at 60-bucks a pop....

He Did it for Black People

Your outgoing President tells the Washington Times that he should be right up there next Martin Luther King, in the hearts of Black People, when it comes to civil rights. Dubya told the newspaper, this past weekend, that he only wanted to privatize Social Security because he had Black people’s well being in mind. He also said “no child left behind” was his way of helping Black kids learn more, so they can compete with white kids.

Oh....and you can thank him for paving the way for Barack Obama. According to Dubya, he is the reason America is soon to have its first Black president.

I can buy that. Just wished he hadn’t burned down the neighborhood before he invited the coloreds to move in....

Y2K Redux

The histrionics surrounding the world's switch to digital signal TV are reaching Y2K proportions. Trust me, the world didn't end with the change of the century, it won't end if you don't immediately plug in a converter box, if you need one. Look at it as an opportunity to discover...say....books, walks outside, playing in the snow, bird watching....

Don’t they Know When They’ve been Beaten?

The Huffington Post is reporting that Fred Thompson and Mike Huckabee are getting their own radio programs so they can talk about Obama all day everyday...Guess they didn’t get enough during this past election.

Condi Talk

Condoleeza Rice is talking a lot these days. Today she said that Barack may have no choice except to follow Bush’s lead when it comes to foreign policy....I guess not considering the corner that they’ve him painted into. That's why Hill is taking over. She's good at fighting out of tight spaces.

Folks are still trying to get Condi to admit who she voted for, in this past election....They’re assuming she voted with “her people.”

Cheney Unleashes

Big Dick is talking more in these last two months, than he has for the past eight years. He’s not saying anything special, just continuing to spew bigotry and misdirection type bullcrap...

The Dark Side lives, forever

A Xmas Song Sent to me from a Chicago Friend

SING IT ALL TOGETHER NOW KIDS.....
To the tune of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen"

Get packin', Rod Blagojevich
The state's in disarray
The Tribune wants you unemployed
At least by Christmas Day.
The TV pundits want your head
Could there be pay to play?
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Save Illinois!
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.

Good riddance Rod Blagojevich
Your Elvis looks inane,
The Senate's mad, so's Lisa's dad.
You drive us all insane.
Our transit's broke, the state's a joke, The Tollway's one big pain.
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy
Save Illinois!
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy.

Good luck old Rod Blagojevich
The feds have quite a place.
Fitzgerald's poked his nose around
And if he has a case,
George Ryan's moving stuff around
Creating extra space.
Oh, tidings of comfort and joy

Tuesday Thoughts

We’re Getting There...

Obama two steps away from Presidency

The Electoral College met yesterday and did what they were supposed to do, and that was to cast their votes for the next president of the United States. Obama tallied 365 electorals, while McCain won 178.

But wait, it’s not a done deal yet. After certifying their ballots, the votes were packed up and shipped off to DC, where the votes are officially counted by the US Senate. After this, the new president will be sworn in on January 20th.

When it finally happens, the swearing in will seem anti climactic, because it feels like Obama has been on the job since November 5th.

Still Black, Get Back..

Why do people think that being multi racial is a compliment........that having white blood in your make up is somehow better than being just plain black? That it somehow elevates your social standing... and justifies your success....makes it more understandable......”he’s half white” like that means something..... That is the most racist thinking going around....a modern day jim crow/one drop/paper bag test played by everybody instead of just bourgeoise black folk.....please!

Every single African American in this country is multi racial....and so is every single white American.....Go read your history.....We are a nation of mutts......let’s get over it!

End of Days....

Must be.....never thought I would agree with anything coming out of Newt Gingrich's mouth. He told the RNC to get a life and stop trying to link Obama to Blagojevich...

Handsome Rod

“I ain’t goin’ nowhere..”

After hearing all the stuff coming to light about Illinois Governor, Rod Blagojevich, is anyone really surprised that he says he’s not resigning? There have been crazy, narcissistic, egotistical people in office before...we survived...we’ll survive this joker, too...

Jay Leno had it best....”What’s his name again?...........Blasonofabitch?

Caroline Kennedy to replace Hilary? Well, she doesn’t need the money, so she can’t be bought. She’s honest. She’s thoughtful. She’s intelligent. She is well liked.

My question is....is she willing to get dirty...Politics....is not clean or pretty and it does take a toll.

Dick Cheney speaks....

The Puppetmaster Surfaces...

Says Obama will thank him for expanding the powers of the presidency to king-like proportions. The big Dick is assuming that anyone talented enough to win the presidency is as corrupt as he and his puppet...

Who knew the Dubya could move! But what's the matter with his secret service...are they tired from too much travelling? Or are they all Democrats?
