Thoughts

  • Matt Drudge IS mainstream media. His web site is mainly links to news articles.
  • LaShawn Barber points out "liberal" media bias. Media matters disagrees. I happen to think that media matters makes some interesting points. The media IS biased, but I don't fully by the "liberal" line.
  • Michael Eric Dyson is making the rounds pimping his new book. I heard parts of different interviews. I find it funny he blasts the "Black middle class booo-zwaaa-ZE" for their ills of not embracing hip hop. Seems to me that many younger people did. But they don't embrace the crap, now. Dyson has been on my list since he defended the disrespect of Black women by some rappers.
  • Is Project 21 representative of Black conservatives? If so, does it mean anything that I think most of the commentary is negative about the Black community? Is there nothing good to proclaim?
  • I'm branded a "liberal" by "conservatives" and a "conservative" by "liberals". I think that "fact" alone means most people tossing the labels don't have a clue.
  • I have a "secret"...
  • Those who push the idea of "blue" and "red" states, are pimps pushing the divide of the country. They are intellectually lazy and it is easier to categorize people and thought instead of actually thinking. They mean the country no good.
  • I'm not a Democrat. I'm not a Republican. Right now, I find the harshest criticism directed towards me from Republicans for daring to challenge them. Democrats concede my criticisms of the Democratic party. At least this is the case as it concerns Blacks and the Democratic party and Blacks and the Republican party.
  • I'm not rich. I'm comfortible. I'm blessed. I see no reason why the government should take more than 10% of my money. Why is the government getting more than I give God?
  • I don't get the WalMart haters. I like the prices. I hate going to the store because it is ALWAYS crowded. And, I'm sorry, but it seems like a large majority of the workers, excluding the door greaters, aren't too swift. But, they allow shoppers to save money. So, what's wrong with that?
  • WARNING! Never mix the less mentally acute and self service check out lanes.
  • The "discussion" between the "Black left" and the "Black right" has left me convinced that American Blacks, in general, are brain damaged. We can't afford to get caught in the mess. But yet, I'm in it.
  • Tom Delay is not in trouble. Many of his ethic sins are sins that all congress-criters take part. The fact that most of the American public who pays attention, hasn't rushed the congress with burning stakes, shows to me, that the congress-criters can feel safe in continuing to play the American populace for fools.
  • Booker Rising is a great blog.
  • Black Self Help Dot Info. Yeah, I have to update it. I have a lot of links on the hard drive.
