Jeez Rush!



What does Limbaugh have at stake that causes him to so adamantly oppose the truth that is Global Warming, to downplay President Obama's achievements, and to build straw men faster than a factory ever could? What is his motivation? The only think I can think of is money. The guy gets paid to slander any and everyone.
In a Media Matter's article (Nov 25, 2009), author, Greg Lewis chronicles some of Rush Bo's most recent flights of fantasy, including but not limited to his hope the President get "detained" when he visits West Point. But back to the money trail. Among the companies making it possible for Limbaugh to spread his vitriol are Mid-West Life Insurance Company of Tennessee, Mission Pharmacal Company, and Pfizer Inc. So let us ponder this for a moment, his advertisers are .....drum roll.... a part of the Health care for none crowd? Jeez Rush! You aren't even discreet about who you climb into bed with! [Please wait whilst I scrub that mental image from my brain]
Rush is an ego-maniac who has to be seen as relevant. He just has to. I believe there is some self-loathing going on with this guy and he is taking it out on the rest of us. Can someone give him a hug and maybe a therapist's coach. May then he will realize he is hanging out with the wrong crowd and treating his fellow man like crap under foot.

He calls the President a "man-child." Does he really think no one is going to get it? The fact that he is calling the President "boy?" That he, a white man, is calling the FIRST black President boy? What gall! I cannot believe no one is beating down his door for that and the many other ignorant things he oozes on about.

His blather is never supported by facts. I truly believe he is allergic to facts. In his world, facts are optional and never are they used.  He lives in the same world as Sarah Palin.

Really, if Limbaugh and Palin had a kid, it would be Glenn Beck. (YIKES!)

To (some) Black Men...why though

Apparently it is super trendy for (some...before the "not all" chorus lifts every voice and sings) Black men to "drag" black women on social media. My question: why though?? What is going on? Okay, Black men who have "issues" with Black women are nothing new. As a Black woman who is "darker than a brown paper bag," I am quite familiar with all the old tropes: "Black women are too ghetto...don't wear their own hair...don't respect Black men...have too much drama...are loud...destroyed the Black family..." etc., ad infinitum. But here lately, it seems, Black men are well and truly taking issue with us in every imaginable way. Tyrese, French Montana, Trick Daddy, and the like all seem to have, what I am sure they deem, serious grievances with Black woman, and I just don't get it. And let's not talk about the "Hotep" brothers who are quick to, in the same breath call the Black woman God and tell us we need to stop ...

Facebook Bra Color "Scandal"

I have had it with the hoopla over the Facebook Status update. In 2000 my 43 year-old mother died from breast cancer. When I saw the email on FB, it warmed my heart because at the very least, Breast Cancer was on the minds of those forwarding the message and changing their status. I gladly changed my status. My mother had a double mastectomy, but she had a wonderful doctor who helped her get bras that gave her "breasts" and she felt so much better. Everyday, as a young mother, I worry about my risk for developing cancer and I worry about the risk my daughters may face. Breast cancer does not only belong to those who have experienced it alone. It belongs to the mothers, daughters, sisters, cousins, friends, etc. of us all, and any thing that will make it a topic of discussion is fine by me. Of course, changing your FB status won't resolve the cancer issue, but it will get young women talking about this very serious illness. When my mother developed breast cancer, there was...
