Well the day of reckoning is finally upon us. Many have been waiting for this day since November 2, 2004 and we’ll all witness history one way or another. Whether it’s going to be an African-American President or a female Vice President, history will be made. With the last two elections having been decided by electoral votes and hanging chads, nothing is guaranteed. Read the rest of this entry »
There is one reason I endorse Obama over McCain.
He inspires.
Some people are waiting for policies to be implemented, votes to be tallied, and his name to be announced after the words “The new President of these United States.” Not me. I completely understand just how little one man can do when faced with a diseased government, a polarized population and armed only with a plan.
The real change begins with moving the people, making a positive impression, exemplary principle and illuminating character. With Obama the real change has already begun. Read the rest of this entry »

At this point it’s almost cliché for Hip-Hop artists to come out and support Obama. Of course they will, right? He’s the first presidential candidate that actually listens to Hip-Hop, he brushed Hillary Clinton’s dirt off his shoulders at a campaign event, he’s the most progressive mainstream presidential candidate we’ve ever seen, and he’s black. Plus, and let’s just admit it here – Obama’s the coolest motherfucker to ever run for president. Hip-Hop’s attachment to him – and indeed America’s attachment to him – is deep and abiding. He is the face of change, both literally and figuratively, and Hip-Hop (and America for that matter), for all her blemishes, is still good and true at heart. The attachment to Obama goes a little deeper still, though, for he represents two momentous, potentially cathartic things.
The very fact of his presidency – the mere existence of his ascension to the highest office in the land – will continue to roll the country down its long road to redemption. Read the rest of this entry »
I personally get extremely peeved when I see a comedian roast someone then kiss that person’s ass when the celebrity shows up.
Good thing David Letterman isn’t that kind of comedian. Read the rest of this entry »
I know I could probably write a post every day about Fox News’ coverage of the election, however their content is mostly a “creative” take on actual facts. Yes, they ignore opposing valid points to support their ultra-conservative opinions, but the station and journalists working there are entitled to this right. So far, what Fox News has done has been mostly under the umbrella of journalism. Read the rest of this entry »
Barring some sort of major fiasco, the big game-changing moments are over.
Last night was McCain’s final attempt to gain ground against Obama. McCain reacted by waging his most personal and aggressive set of attacks. He brought up Ayers, ACORN and delivered his “you should have run four years ago” soundbite, while seemingly making Joe the Plumber his new running mate. Barack handled each with the same informative and unflustered responses, maintaining his Read the rest of this entry »
Kids learn this type of bullshit behavior from the adults in their lives. That’s all I’mma say about that. Let’s hope that the elder statesman McCain doesn’t swing below the belt, repeating his antics from the last debate. Read the rest of this entry »
America’s self-proclaimed “number one hockey mom” got an earful from Philly fans @ the Flyers game. They did manage to have mostly cheers by the time she got to center ice. Word is Peedi was there cheering though, hoping for potential presidential pardon if the Republicans manage to win. Read the rest of this entry »
One of those vintage gems my pops taught me was to ignore ignorance to avoid being “brought down” to another’s level. I ended up getting this as one of those forwarded messages (I hate forwarded messages, especially e-chain letters & religious notes) with the title “Yet another reason to vote for Obama” and it gave me a chuckle.
It also put into perspective for me that perhaps people are using the wrong logic for determining who they will be voting for. Read the rest of this entry »
