Wisconsin GOP Senators Pass Stand-Alone Anti-Union Bill Without Democrats Present


As terrifical­ly illegal and insane as this is, I hope it will serve as a wake up call to all the people who have been hoodwinked into thinking the GOP has their best interest in mind. They do not! They have shown they are willing to lie, cheat, steal, and throw out the Constituti­on as long as it benefits the wealthy. THIS is what voting against your interests results in. This is not one or two years in the making. This goes back to Regan-nomi­cs. This is the reverse of what "governmen­t for the people, by the people" means. This had nothing to do with the budget, but everything to do with taking away the rights of the middle-cla­ss. The unions are why we have the 40 hour work week and other benefits. We cannot take that away. All of these govs need to be recalled. They have proven who they work for, and it is not the people!

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...
