The Daily Show: One Nation, Overdrawn – Black Community Loyalty [VIDEO]

This was too funny, and I had to share…

Maybe one day Black people will be able to shed the monolithic stereotype, and the false assumption of voting for Barack Obama because of his skin color. Maybe one day we can prove it once and for all that we as Black people are more concerned about policy, and are informed on the voting record of potential candidates. Maybe that day will come once we have more than one Black candidate on the ballot. Hello, Herman Cain anyone? Oh yeah that’s right; Herman Cain isn’t Black nor is he African American. Oh well, there’s always Cynthia McKinney… Or maybe even Al Sharpton? Somebody has to split the Black vote one of these days. Not sure who, but please, no rappers.

So what does this all mean? OK, well let me cue Public Enemy’s classic album, “Fear Of A Black Planet” before I explain. [...]

The Legion of Christ Sex Scandal: Oh, Father God… He’s Just My Baby Daddy!!

Its my understanding that one of the occupational hazards of being Black is that one is more familiar with the Baptist church then they are with the teachings of the Roman Catholic church. Luckily, I was raised Roman Catholic and the Vatican is part of my vocabulary, so I don’t feel left out this time around. While [...]

Wait, is Barack Obama Gay? Uhm, is He Still Black?!!

Last week after Pres. Obama’s made his “evolution” on gay marriage public, my initial thought was: great, now they’re going to say that Obama is gay, and all gay people are now going to vote for him because of it. You know, pretty much in the same way all black people voted for him in [...]
