John Edwards...It just keeps getting worse

You know, I never think it is the "people's business" when a politician or anyone in the public eye cheats on their spouse. After all, they made and broke the covenant they made between themselves, their spouse, and God...not me. BUT this guy is a cad! Not only do you cheat on your wife, but your wife who has cancer! It's just in bad taste all around. Now, there is a sex-tape? What more can go wrong for this guy? I don't care what anyone says about Mrs. Edwards, she is a classy lady! Buying Christmas gifts for the child of her husband's mistress. Talk about grace! She is an amazing woman for that alone. I had hoped Edwards would have done great things, in fact, he was my choice before Obama as I was learning about the now-President. Now I just see him as smarmy! What a waste. His public image was shiny clean, but in the private realm he was really grimy. AND to say he had to stay in the race because "a black man or woman couldn't win." Jeez John. Talk about duplicitous!

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 ...

Political blog hiatus is over... just in time for the fall of the Republic

Well Loves, I am back from my..um.. 2 year-long political blog hiatus, and it appears I am just in time for the fall of the Republic. Donald J. Trump is the cotton-picking President of the United States! I will admit, on the night of the election, as the results came in, I cried. Though I was not a big fan of Hillary Clinton's, I most certainly did not want her to lose to the man I call "Cheeto Jesus!" Come on America! Seriously! We go from a professorial President, to one who couldn't spell "professorial" if you gave him the first eleven letters. But, as Americans are wont to do, we dealt in extremes, and handed the country over to a political novice with Neo-Nazi, anti-Semetic, misogynistic, and racists tendencies. *High-Five* Trump has been in the Oval for 87 days, and the world has seen a host of missteps, accusations of incompetence, and of course, the high drama that are his ties to Russia. We could view a timeline of the insanity occurring by way...
