Dear Dick Cheney

Dear (Former Vice President) Dick Cheney,


From the moment then-Senator Obama launched his bid for President, you and your Party have set out to de-legitimize him. You speak of love for Country and a desire to protect the "Homeland." When in office, you demanded everyone bow to your plan for the Nation, and anyone so bold as to question your tactics was drummed out of government and slain on the public stage. You all co-opted Patriotism, denied truths, and committed "High Crimes and Misdemeanors," all while waiving the flag. You know your history; more importantly, we know your history.

Now you have all but charged the current President with Treason. Does that make you unpatriotic Mr. Cheney? The fact that you go on television to undermine the President almost daily make you worthy of losing your Civil Liberties, or are you still above us all? While I cannot agree completely with the Presidents tact in Afghanistan, I know he is only cleaning up the mess you gift wrapped for him. Since this mess was created by you and yours, how can you place such vitriolic blame on the man trying to fix it? Oh, right, you are THE Dick Cheney, he who knows no accountability, smirks at redress, and believes the best way for America to regain Her reputation around the world, is to beat the crap out of the rest of the world. Have you not understood the way others have cried out against your exploits? To you, they are just background noise, we all are.

Mr. Cheney, at the very least, you continue to tarnish the office you once held, and at most, you simply do not care about your country. You stand before podiums, declaring the President will fail, but refuse to take questions and be held accountable for your words. You, Mr. Cheney, own all the trouble we are in. You are its author, editor, and deliminator. For 8 years, you cloaked yourself in mystery, hiding out in you "undisclosed location." Were you afraid that those you trampled would seek you out? Could you not face the same people whom you put in great danger. You sir could not face the American people or the people of Iraq and Afghanistan. You sir, sought to render the American people voiceless, and now you propose to stand before any camera that shall have you and call OUR President a traitor? You have gall.

Remember well, Dick, you started this, couldn't or didn't want to finish this, and now you criticize the one man trying to? You are so brave...so Patriotic...what a man...Not! You are a coward, Dick. A coward who create a no-win situation for the country you supposedly love. You do not love America or the American people, you sir, love only yourself, oil, and money.

Good Day

Republicans hate us...yes, all of us.

Recently, I have been doing a lot of reading on the Enlightenment and the great minds it spawned. The 19th century was a period of upheaval all over the globe. The collective mind was being challenged to separate superstition from reason. I find this period of history fascinating based on where we are as a nation currently. Of particular interest to me has been the thoughts of Karl Marx. (Yes, that Karl Marx) Without getting into the minutiae, Marx basically saw Capitalism as a severely flawed economic system. The basic premise is Capitalism is a system in which the worker is exploited by the Capitalist to the point of losing his individual freedom of mind and soul.  Relationships are based solely on monetary gains and losses, and the worker is generally always on the losing end. For Marx, the only logical outcome and solution would be for  workers (the majority) to organize and revolt against the Capitalists (the minority.) Such a revolt would be the only way to shift the ba...

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...

Tomi Lahren: Outrage Barbie...please go away

(RawStory.com) What would you get if you mixed Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, and Ann Coulter in a nifty Ninja blender? You'd get "Alt-Right" Princess Tomi Lahren. Like one of her ideological fathers, Bill O, Lahren was recently fired from her other daddy's Internet channel, The Blaze , but that doesn't mean she's gone quietly into that good night. Tomi, like Ann Coulter, is a blond, (they say) attractive, white woman with a penchant for giving angry white men stiffies with her screeching about the war on White people, police officers, and, of course, all things Negro . Tomi has appointed herself the far, far Right's spokeswoman where outrage is concerned. Her most inflammatory rants always seem to be ones in which she is taking a black man to task; most notably, her rants against actor Jessie Williams following his acceptance speech at the BET awards last year and Colin Kaepernick regarding is decision to sit during the National Anthem.
