If you think president Obama is the one behind this record poverty in America like “certain folks” are touting. Here’s something to think about for a second. it might be a little bit wonkish, but anyway. The Wonk Blog’s Brad Plummer writes: Were high oil prices partly responsible for the uptick in poverty this year? [...]

Barack Obama has a lot of nerve telling the Congressional Black Caucus – and by extension Black America – to “stop complaining.” Negro please! I don’t know how you might feel about it, but this is totally unacceptable, and beyond the pale. I mean, I didn’t hear him tell the Israeli’s to stop complaining last [...]

I didn’t watch last night’s CNN-Tea party Debate last night; fact is, I’m still recovering from the brain damage suffered by watching the last one. Yeah, I heard the term “Obamacare” so much that I developed a brain tumor. I know, I get it; they dopn’t like president Obama or his policies. And let them [...]

So I caught president Obama’s speech last night. Aside from the lack of specifics on certain issues or proposals, I was left wondering: wait a minute, was this Barack Obama, or Shaft? No seriously, I was pleasantly surprised at the brothas tone. Hell, throw in a few “eat the cake Anna Mae” lines along with [...]

So Charles Koch – one half of the infamous uber-rich right-wing money machine known as the Koch Brothers – had a meeting with wealthy GOP donors in Colorado  recently. Brad Friedman of The Brad Blog is reporting over at Mother Jones that there is an audio of the Charles Koch, where in addressing would-be-donors, he referred [...]

Comedian Rodney Dangerfield has been dead for quite some time now. But who would have thought that his soul would live on through president Barack Obama? After all, the brother gets no respect; and, yesterday’s Obama diss by House Speaker, John Boehner was the ultimate public display of disrespect. I mean is Barack Obama the [...]

You know how we all joke about when we hit the lottery, or became famous, how we’re going to have to disown our new relatives? Yeah, like little John John who used to pee the bed and blame it on you when y’all stayed at Grandma’s while mom’s was out running the streets on some [...]

I know who shook the ground and brought the fire waters to the east coast. The earthquake and hurricane were the spirit of Marcus Garvey trembling in disappointment. He kicked the sediment of the shores on the East and churned the Atlantic Ocean yelling, “Fucking Bumbaclot” just after after the Obama Administration denied a posthumous [...]

I Just listened to Sarah Palin’s comments in regard to president Obama going on vacation with Greta Van Susteren. Umm, lady, you quit your job as governor of Alaska to go on a permanent vacation yourself; a paid one at that! Unlike you, at least Obama is working while on vacation with his family. You [...]

The minute Rep. Maxine waters came out asking for the CBC to be “unleashed” on Obama, I knew this would happen. I figured it would be a matter of time before Fox picked up the story and feature one of their resident conservative racial enablers to weigh in on this. Well, as usual, they didn’t [...]

Just last week I highlighted the negative reaction some residents of Detroit had to Tavis Smiley and Dr. Cornel West’s Poverty Tour. The tour as I explained, sought to highlight the struggles people are facing in this economy; and as stated, Detroit should be the last city in the country against anyone seeking to chronicle [...]
