Spotted this little lame homophobic nugget attendee of the annual CPAC (Conservative Political Action Committee) meeting and couldn’t help but comment.
At some point, lonely and dejected women across the globe must stop holding gay men responsible for their nights alone eating Ben and Jerry’s while watching “He’s Just Not That Into You.” And as the title of the aforementioned movie suggests, the problem is YOU, not gay men. And you can’t bully them into finding you sexually attractive, let alone loving you.
From the look on this woman’s face, one can detect that she feels a bit emboldened by the offensive bumper sticker she holds in her desperate little paws. In her little pea brain, she feels that her limited man choices are caused by the gays, not her own shallow pool of wifey qualities.
Well let me clear it up for you lady: YOU are the weakest link. Maybe, just maybe, if you spent more time being a creative, independent, free-thinking woman instead of paling around with right wingers at CPAC conferences, then you’d have more of a shot at love.
If you’re opposed to gay man love, then so be it. Last I heard, they weren’t recruiting you to be a part of their team. But before you attended the CPAC meeting, maybe you should’ve learned a thing or two about liberty and freedom. Freedom is my right, and the right of every gay man you pine for, to be left the hell alone. Nobody needs to see your little antagonistic desperate woman tag all over town.

The way in which Rachel Maddow skewered Congressman Schock this morning on Meet the Press was stunning. Rachel diverted from the usual feigned politeness which we normally see on Sunday morning television in order to rail against Schock’s duplicity.
Maddow, not known for her shyness, lept at the opportunity to shine a spotlight on Congressman Schock’s hypocrisy as it relates to the Stimulus Bill. For those who don’t know, Schock was ‘against it before he was for it’. As Rachel pointed out, Schock went back home to his district and took credit for a stimulus project which he’d vehemently opposed while in Congress.
How did the young Schock (the name is just such a contradiction) defend himself? By basically saying that his community is entitled to the same pork that all other districts receive. This is what you call a man (boy) standing by his principles!

You may love Oprah Winfrey, Bill Cosby, Michael Jordan, or Darius Rucker but that does not make these celebrities any less black. The attempt to re-categorize members of the African-American community as “post racial,” SEE FULL POST AT SODAHEAD.COM

When President Barack Obama was accused of elitism during his campaign, I chuckled. How could the son of a single mother be more elite than the son of a four star admiral? John McCain, an underachieving, Naval Academy frat boy-esque boozer who graduated near the bottom of his class, used that claim against a wonkish, debt ridden, Harvard grad named SEE FULL POST AT SODAHEAD.COM

While perusing Facebook this morning, I was struck by an article posted by one of my friends. The article was entitled, “One Year Out: President Obama’s Fall” and was written by conservative Charles Krauthammer. Enough said right? Krauthammer has never seen a liberal or moderate idea with which he could identify or give praise. In his feeble mind, the only good ideas are conservative ideas. I’m always bothered by people who can’t see outside their own ideologies and since Krauthammer is one of those people, my first impulse was to move on and scan past the article, maybe find a cool YouTube video. But alas, I was intrigued .. and then infuriated.
In the article, Krauthammer makes the argument that President Obama is failing not because of his accomplishments (or lack thereof) during his first year, but because he’s liberal. Now, those of us who are progressive see Krauthammer’s premise for what it is; a gargantuan pile of cow dung.
Krauthammer points to Obama’s health care initiative as one of many big liberal ideas which spooked America, turned them off, and caused Obama’s poll numbers to plummet. Bullsh*t.
If you didn’t know health care was on Obama’s agenda when he was elected, then you weren’t paying attention. The guy was honest about his intentions, he just hasn’t worked to bring them to fruition. This is an Obama failure, not a liberal failure.
If Obama were truly a liberal, he would’ve fought for universal health care, or at least a public option. But he hasn’t. In fact, he hasn’t worked to promote any truly liberal initiatives. This has disappointed liberals and is one of the key reasons why Obama’s poll numbers are plummeting among liberal voters.
So nice try Krauthammer. I know you hate liberals and would love nothing more than to wrap them up in President Obama’s failures. The problem is simply that it’s just not true. I guess it’s true what they say; the truth never gets in the way of a good story.

About how you made promises that you obviously had not intention of keeping. Don’t think I don’t think about it. And guess what, I’ll be thinking about it in 2012. I know, I know…you thought that because I was black you could just charm my vote right out of my sweet little hands. Well, guess what, I ‘ve got a surprise for you my dear.

I rarely link to articles offsite (except for my own) only because I think it’s a sign of lazy blogging. Let’s be honest, I have a blog to share my OWN point of view, not someone else’s right? ‘Tiz True. But occasionlly, an article is so powerful and on point that I can’t look away. Well, that’s how I feel about Drew Westen’s December 20th editorial in the Huffington Post which deals squarely with President Obama’s leadership (or lack thereof). I couldn’t look away, and neither should you. Regardless of whether you agree or disagree with Mr. Westen, this Op-Ed is super – a must read.
If you still don’t believe me (you CYNIC!), here’s a wee little taste;
What’s costing the president are three things: a laissez faire style of leadership that appears weak and removed to everyday Americans, a failure to articulate and defend any coherent ideological position on virtually anything, and a widespread perception that he cares more about special interests like bank, credit card, oil and coal, and health and pharmaceutical companies than he does about the people they are shafting……………CLICK HERE TO READ ARTICLE

The world is watching in awe at your total lack of humility, class, and common sense. When one adds the endorsement deals, tournament cash, and net profit from your many business ventures, estimates total your earnings at over one billion dollars. This phenomenal success begs the question; how could you be so stupid?
“Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.” – Proverbs 16:18
Quite simply, your superior athletic talent led you to believe that you were not only more talented than your peers, but also better than your peers. I was watching The Oprah Winfrey Show when you smiled that big cheesy grin and explained to Oprah that you were not black, but “Caublinasian”. I remember wandering what Oprah, a woman who has been harrowingly honest about the role race plays in her life, must’ve been thinking as she witnessed your sly attempt to back-peddle away from who you are. How could you not understand that race isn’t as much about how you identify as it is about how other people identify you?
Even now, your press release wreaks with the overtones of an indignant brat, not a grown man fighting to retain control of his image. In your press release you write, “Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn’t have to mean public confessions.” You don’t even know how to apologize.
When you sold your public image to Nike and Gatorade, you became a public figure with a public life. And when you and your wife engaged in a dispute which resulted in a neighbor making a call to 9-1-1, you invited the authorities into your life. Had you behaved like a man Tiger, and handled your private business inside the home you and your wife share (instead of running away), this incident never would’ve occurred. This is not the fault of the press or media. This is your failure and you should own it.
Since you were the married man caught cavorting with models and cocktail waitresses, then you should be the man to offer a clean, unequivocal apology to your fans (of which I am not one).
The saddest part of this whole fiasco is that you could’ve been one of the African-American community’s many heroes, but now you’re just one of our most pitiful disappointments. I do hope your “Caublinasian” brothers and sisters come to your defense. Lord knows the African-American community won’t.
