So yeah, about that whole lazy moocher, non-tax-paying, 47 percent, Obama-loving-voter meme running around in right-wing circles this week thanks to Mitt Romney. My man David Callahan who blogs over at Demos has done an excellent job of debunking much of it in a recent post titled, Freeloader Fabrications. I believe the post to be [...]
Speaking of wealthy out-of-touch white men not named Mitt Romney. America’s most beloved angry white man Pat Buchanan, makes an argument against poverty that would make any one-percenter smile from ear to ear while throwing tomatoes at hoards of impoverished Americans lined up at soup kitchens across the country. Not that I know whether uncle [...]
Well, I suppose this isn’t as bad as president Obama apologizing for America. as right-wing nutjobs espouse. Let them tell it, America’s hands are clean; and if it isn’t, oh well so what. Yep, we’ll just ignore this and move on like we always do. Lord forbid iif POTUS apologizes for this. By the way, [...]
You know what? Given recent history, and the fact that not raising the debt ceiling will signal a cataclysmic end of the world as we know it, Pat Buchanan is probably right.

The following story of how a mother lost her two children [...]
I don’t know what it means to “look presidential”. But in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, the media keeps saying that Pres. Obama is “looking presidential.” Yep, that’s all I keep hearing. Well damn, is he supposed to look like someone running around screaming like he’s in the path of a Tsunami yelling, “RUN NIGGA, [...]
Board of Directors, Pacifica Foundation: I’m writing in response to the recent announcement that the Pacifica Foundation has appointed it’s own chairman, Summer Reese, as Executive Director. Admittedly, at this point I know very little about Director Reese, but I intend to address that issue immediately so as to gain a better understanding of what’s going on [...]
I like Dr. Boyce Watkins — yes, I really do. It is for that reason only that he isn’t this week’s recipient of my Slave-Catcher of the Week award. Not that what he said in a piece over at Kulture Kritic isn’t slave catcher behavior. But after thinking long and hard, truth is, the last [...]
