U Better Recognize

Alright Sarah, what's REALLY going on??

2009-07-04T14:06:00.005-04:00

Gosh darn, where do I begin?? Blogs, emails and news outlets have been thrown into a tailspin with Alaska's most precious resource-Sarah Palin- announcing that she's stepping down as Governor. She's resigning. hmmmm. What's really making people talk is during her press conference (i haven't viewed it yet) she spoke in circles, rambled, and used analogies that pretty much thoroughly confused the listening audience.

What's going on with Sarah Palin...now?? One thing for certain, she's not about to fade to black anytime soon, as I've discovered she LOVES the limelight. source

Possible reasons for stepping down (j/k):

Another scandal (more unpaid for clothes??) is about to be revealed in the Palin clan
She's accepted an offer to appear on DWTS
American Idol has added Palin as a judge (i guess Paula IS leaving!! lol)
Entertainment correspondent for either MTV, ET, or even TMZ (it cud happen!!)
Will be full-time grandma to Tripp Easton
Will travel the world as an MJ impersonator, or better yet-Tina Fey impersonator!

UPDATE: ok, I'm watching Palin's announcement. WTH is she referring to when she says, "only dead fish go with the flow??" Ok, she keeps saying 'I'll work for..." is she running for President-seriously, if not-then how will she work for others-in what capacity? She's choosing 'more freedom for Alaska' and is speaking on how much fun some Governors have, as 'lame ducks.' They (other governors) collect their check without doing anything for their State. Ok, she's transferred power to Lt. Governor Parnell. She is seriously speaking in damn circles! It's like she has this helluva secret-alludes to the secret-but won't tell who it is she's referring to. Ok...she just made the basketball analogy. She's passing the ball to Parnell so the team (Alaska) can win. Trust her with her decision and know there's no more politics as usual. She said her decision has been in the works for a while. Uh-huhhhh After prayer and consideration she made her decision (ok, she mentioned -somewhat-religion. Everytime religion is alluded to, there's usually drama to go with it-we'll see). She said her children assisted her (in additon to prayer and careful consideration) in helping with her decision (whom she polled and the count was unanimous) but did not mention her husband (though he was standing by her side). She asked her kids: Do you want me to make a positive difference and fight for all our children from outside the Gov's office? (I'm sorry I can't imagine Sarah posing such an eloquent question to her kids, lol-it was probably more like: Gosh darnit, would you guys like it if I stayed at home with you guys and laughed at Obama's ears on TV?!) She said there were '4 yes' and 1 HELL YEAH, and the HELL YEAH response is what sealed the deal. Oh that Sarah, she just one pile of mush!! She goes on to say her son Trigg (who has Down Syndrome) has been ridiculed by mean spirited adults. She's going to take her fight for Alaska in a new direction...(care to elaborate Sarah??) Maybe you guys can make sense out of her speech...she looked good in that red suit, tho!

Embattled Detroit Councilwoman Monica Conyers

2009-06-30T23:19:00.003-04:00

Monica Conyers' mugshot

Monica Conyers and husband, State Rep. John Conyers

~~Detroit Councilwoman~~ Former Councilwoman (as of July 6th) has dug her own grave. From bar fights, to cussing out police officers, to disrespecting her fellow Detroit Council peers on camera, to even going on the defense with a young teenager when her behavior was questioned, Monica Conyers is a troubled woman. Sadly, her latest escapade can and most likely will land her behind bars. Monica Conyers, a lawyer and wife of State Senator John Conyers, has pleaded guilty to accepting bribes ($6k and jewelry). She's currently facing up to 5yrs of prison time. source

Time after time, those who are voted into office (not only in Detroit) who have sworn to uphold the law and serve the community are continually blinded by money. Detroit, no stranger to scandals (remember former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick) cannot eschew the ominous reputation that's been bestowed upon the city due to the dirty dealings of its officers. I love the city of Detroit, but not those who are in office. It is simply a matter of time before one of Detroit's representatives causes us to bow our heads in shame. I was motivated to move out of Detroit 3yrs ago and I haven't looked back.

While we tend to get upset the blame is two-fold. We are too lazy or fearful to do a little research on those who are running for office so we take the word of friends, family and then follow their vote. These clowns who are on Detroit's council do not sit themselves in those chairs...they're voted in...BY YOU the constituents. Detroit-when is enough, enough?? When in the hell will the city of Detroit TAKE BACK THEIR DAMN CITY?!

State Rep. John Conyers says he had no knowledge of his wife's actions. Story still developing.

Where is the $$; Black Churches Collected $420 Billion in Tithes & Offerings ...

2009-06-30T19:40:00.004-04:00

Why I think black church is a damn joke

By: LiveSteez Research and Reporting Team

LiveSteez research shows that Black churches, in aggregate, have collected more than $420 billion in tithes and donations since 1980. With a Senate investigation into the finances of several mega churches underway, the “Prosperity Movement” has been the target of mounting criticism from inside and outside the Black Church. Specifically, the affluent ministries of The Reverend Creflo Dollar, Bishop Eddie Long and others have drawn the attention – and ire – of some clergy and laypeople alike.

Researcher Henry E. Felder’s study of Blacks’ donation habits demonstrated per capita spending of $508 per year in 2009 dollars. Another source, Tyler Media Services, estimated that Black Church revenue approached $17 billion in 2006.

One church, the Reverend Dollar’s World Changers, reported $69 million in 2006 income, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.

Mainstream politicians and Black community leaders are demanding a better accounting of the “return on investment” offered by churches to the communities that fund them. Meanwhile, legions of faithful churchgoers defend their pastors and accuse their detractors of applying a double standard that ignores the largesse of wealthy, white televangelists, while underplaying the economic development and social service functions provided by the Black Church.

“The church has gotten caught up in materialism and greed, a lifestyle. Many ministers today want to live like celebrities and they want to be treated like celebrities. In other words, instead of the church standing with the community, the church has become self-serving. It has strayed away from its mission” according to Dr.Love Henry Whelchel, professor of church history at The Interdenominational Theological Center in Atlanta.

Few people – not even the ongoing Congressional investigation by Senator Chuck Grassley accuse the mega church pastors of outright larceny, and congregants generally approve of their pastors’ luxurious lifestyles. However, in a blatant recent example, a father-son pastor team, 76-year-old Richard Cunningham of Moreno Valley and his son, 52-year-old Philip Cunningham of Laurinburg, N.C., pleaded guilty to felony grand theft and fraud charges. The younger Cunningham also pleaded guilty to forgery. Over five years, prosecutors say, the Cunninghams stole from Calvary Baptist Yorba Linda Church and School bank accounts and used the money to buy time shares in Hawaii and Palm Springs, golf club memberships and a Cadillac. Prosecutors say the men have paid $3.1 million in restitution to the church.

LiveSteez’s investigative series will take a forensic editorial approach to quantifying the return to Black America for the $350 billion in tax-favored donations it has given to the Black Church, examining the arguments on both sides of the pulpit. In this series we will seek answers and advisory to the following questions:

- How often and how much do church leaders take advantage of the faith of poor black people?

-We will investigate and indentify the churches they are showing a strong return on investment that goes beyond inspiration.

- What does the black community have to show for the $350 billion in tax free dollars?

- Expert analysis on what could potentially be done with such a huge amount of money and how it could improve the state of our communities.

- Why do some church leaders refuse to participate in the Grassley congressional Investigation, which requested the financial records of several mega-churches.

*** I've been told too many times that 'faithful tithers/offers' have been turned down by the very churches they've given their $$ to. As a matter of fact, before making a final decision, the financial board oftentime will review your tithing/offering record as a determining factoring in releasing funds to you. Greater Grace Temple in Detroit, lost one of its faithful tithing members a couple of years ago. The daughter wanted to have the repast at the church-knowing how much her mother loved Greater Grace Temple. Greater Grace was happy to appease their member's daughter...for several hundred dollars!! Did I mention that in addition to faithful tithing and offering, she also served the church tirelessly. Why?? The church used to be about COMMUNITY. What if God turned down the prayers and needs of those who were less fortunate (which would be EVERYONE)? Since when do you have to APPLY for assistance at a church-who can accept or deny a request (excluding SCAMMERS)- as if you were applying to Bank of America, or JP Chase Manhattan?? Give me a break!!

Open Letter to Mr./Ms. Attention Whore

2009-06-25T22:59:00.006-04:00

Dear Attention Whore,
You know who you are. First let me ask you, what makes you think you're SO great? Who did you pay (or barter SERVICES with) in order to play judge at a beauty pageant-YOU of all people?! Was Gary Coleman unavailable?? Why is it that the only way your ignorant, celebrity brown-nosing azz can feel great about your uncomfortably built self, is by disparaging others? I'm lead to believe and this is purely subjective as it's MY OPINION and MY BLOG, that you were perhaps a middle child (I could be wrong)-who was overlooked by whomever your caretaker was and now you're attempting to make your mark by wielding the sword of spite. It is not the fault of celebrities (big/small) that others in your familia- nicer, more approachable mijas and mijos took precedence over you. Your ass is bitter, despicable and desperate for attention. Attention whores such as yourself are nothing than wadded up used tissues...tossed to the side, overlooked and stepped on. You try as your might to reinvent yourself to no avail.

Please, do not think for one moment ur a celebrity. Ur a poser and a loser-nothing more nothing less. So what you're in the company of well known names-I bet you're the butt (if you had one) of many jokes! But knowing you-bad publicity is better than NO publicity, right?? You will always live vicariously through others. You're a walking facade. You're as hollow as those dead eyes of yours. Ur sorry ass get a beatdown (not the 1st and I'm willing to bet NOT your last), and then tweet the ordeal. Can you say, 'sorry ass??' You're a joke that's not funny! Question-I don't follow you and your bs-but what you did today with Michael is low even for your low-belly ass. You're not certified, bonified nor QUALIFIED to determine WHAT state Michael Jackson was in, and yet you took your drag queen she-male heels and lace panties straight to the keyboard and offered an opinion-and cause trouble. WHO IN THE HELL ARE U?? Better yet, WHO ASKED U??

click the image to see what PH said about Mj

You took it upon yourself to offer an unsolicited opinion AND U WERE WRONG...like those swollen/dirty feet of yours. U may want to take a water pill/and a soap cloth for that-what were u doing? Ewwww, walking the floor of the Jordan River?! honey-not that you asked me or anything-very unbecoming for a *snicker, snicker* 'queen.'

You and your mindless 'idiots,' 'el stupidos' or whatever the hell you call them behind their backs-with your uber cowardly ass-can sit on a razor blade cactus and spin. Your days as an 'E-lister' are numbered. I'm sure E-online will be all too happy to host a 'where are you now' episode once you've faded to black lol. Ur a mindless, gutless (ur spirit-not ur abdominal area!) egotistical (why I've NOT a clue), big prickly pineapple who WISHES he had the looks and admiration that he sickenly bestows upon those who could care less. You've attempted to create a vapid alter-ego when in reality you're nothing more than a child trapped in an adult (physically, speaking) casing. You think more of yourself than you ought. I wonder...what would happen if crazy ass Randy Jackson was in a room with you for two minutes!lol oh how I'd love to be a butterfly in that room. U've proven consistently that you do and say things for mere shock value...anything 4 a pat on that wide back of yours. Ur methods for publicity are deplorable & atrocious at best and it's a saaad state of affairs when GLAAD wants nothing to do with you lol Your 'respect' is drooping like your belly and manboobs- gurrrrl!

So cavity creep-I wait for the day you and your pear shape will ride off into the sunset. And I wonder-hypothetically speaking of course, what people will say about YOU when you fall ill: 'Melodramatic Fool' or 'Desperate Ploy to Stay Relevant?' In the meantime kick rocks you plagiaristic, copyright infringing, lying, self-serving, thieving, lawsuit magnet, frankinstein looking, backwashed, sycophantic charlatan! boy-BYE!

REST IN PEACE, MICHAEL JACKSON-KING (4EVER AND ALWAYS) OF POP

The ♚of Pop has died: Michael Jackson dies of Cardiac Arrest

2009-06-25T18:43:00.007-04:00

Michael Jackson, the King of Pop (Jackson 5 fame!), according to news sources, has died at the age of 50. I am in a bit of shock upon hearing this news. I don't want to believe it as many others don't. He was found earlier today unconscious from cardiac arrest and never recovered. Although most of us did not KNOW Michael Jackson-we KNEW him and oftentimes lived vicariously through him. Through his being in a band with his brothers, going on to become the most successful solo artist, Neverland, Bubbles the Monkey, his hyperbaric chamber, plastic surgeries, much copied MOONWALK, crotch grabbing, incognito costumes, surgical masks, scarves, flooding pants,child molestation scandals, examining of his nether regions, wigs, several pigmentation changes, vitiligo, his wives (Lisa Marie, Debbie), his 3 children (dangling his youngest child over a balcony), studded gloves/white socks, Billie Jean (she was NOT his lover!). The list is endless.

I remember as a child when I was a Jehovah's Witness (don't be shocked! lol) and Michael was one too-he came to one of the Jehovah's Witnesses Assemblies (aka conferences for church folk) and he sat 3 rows behind me. Can I tell you, I don't know what the men at the podium were ministering bcuz truly I got a crook in my neck as I stargazed Michael. He winked and waved and I thought I'd pass out. One time when I went door2door (ministering on the street), this guy shouted he wasn't going to get a Watchtower and Awake bcuz we give all of our money to Michael Jackson lol OMG you should've heard my lil smart behind GOING OFF on that man! My daddy had to pull me from the door-I had to be about 9-10yrs of age lol

I hoped the news of his passing wasn't true-but it is. Shortly after learning (about an hour ago), my mind went to Prince (Prince Nelson-not his two kids) and wondered how did he feel about the news?! Isn't that weird?? Anyway...there are not enough words that I can utilize to describe the way I feel. to date, the story was reported but NOT confirmed by CNN

The living legend is no more-but he shall remain in our hearts forever.

Michael Jackson the King of Pop has left us, but he'll never be gone. May you FINALLY, FINALLY get the peace you deserve.

No, NO NO...Rihanna's star tattoos are on her BACK not her FACE!!

2009-06-19T00:34:00.005-04:00

Can you say, DRAMEDY?! This is funny tragedy if ever I saw one~first let me say...the workmanship of girl's tatts is on point. However...her story stinks to high heaven!! I have four tattoos, with 3 more on the way by the end of the summer. Gf said she FELL ASLEEP during her tattoo procedure and due to a language barrier her request was lost in translation.

Let me tell you this...unless you were in a MEDICALLY INDUCED COMA, there's NO WAY you could sleep thru a needle jabbing your skin along the jawline, going down your neck..YOUR NOSE, YOUR EYES...ie, YOU WON'T FALL ASLEEP GETTING A FACIAL TATTOO. #2, if your tattoo artist doesn't speak the same language as you...WHY WUD U LET HIM TATTOO U?!

Let's call this: "It seemed like a good idea at the time..." until her daddy and bf weren't as enthusiastic with the art as she was. NOW she wants to sue. Granted, young people are impetuous but they should also learn to accept responsibility for the stupid azz decisions they make. This girl looks like a clown. And if I were her dad, I'd make her behind look in the mirror every chance she got as a reminder of how stupid she really was. smdh To quote Madea, "she's dumb as hell, dumb as hell!!" Girl bye!

Note to Peta: GET A LIFE!!

By now, most of you have seen Pres. Obama attempting to continue an interview only to bothered by an annoying fly. Who hasn't dealth with those pesky nasty critters?? Well, even the Prez of the United States isn't above being annoyed. His reaction to the pest? Swat and kill it-like we all do. Except for PETA that is. I'm really trying to understand PETA, really I am. I understand about protesting against animal fur, animal testing etc,but if they're so worried about a fly-why aren't they swarming Detroit, trying to rescue these dogs that are used in dog fights or better yet-those that are roaming the streets?? How can you sleep at night, PETA, knowing those animals are in the streets in below zero weather during the winter-where are you then??

President Obama's coolness has gone up to the nth degree. PETA...GET A LIFE!

WTF???

2009-06-18T18:28:00.003-04:00

I really thought I heard everything in the area of crazy ass kids. But this takes the damn cake.
Not only has a fool's mother died...but her son has gone so far as to FORGE her death certificate and then dress in drag-in a poor feeble attempt to pass as his mother!! EXCUSE ME?!

Surveillance video shows Thomas Parkin, left, dressed as his mother at a DMV office on April 29, authorities say.

1 of 2

Thomas Parkin, 49, aka 'Son of the damn Year' has been collecting checks in his mother's name for the past 6years. He collected more than $100,000 in government benefits. I mean if you break that down: 100,000/6= $16,000 per year. That's not a lot of money. I mean for one person if you're counting your pennies, stick to your budget and you may be able to make it.
Thomas and his dumb ass 'friend' Mhilton Rimolo, 47 were the masterminds behind this bs and I must say...it reminds me of the movie, Psycho, except this fool is really psycho!!

Thankfully, both of these macabre idiots are behind bars with bail set at $1million dollars per idiot. Where's mommy when you need her most?? You want to read the rest of this made-for-tv movie?? Then click here>>

Ok, So there was TRUTH to Urshmeka's marriage afterall..sign

2009-06-13T13:00:00.004-04:00

According to People.com, Usher has filed for divorce from his wife Tameka. I spoke about the possibility about the demise of their marriage last year, here>>. Shocked, but not surprised I admit.

According to People.com:

The R & B star filed the petition Friday in Superior Court in Atlanta, court records show. The couple, who got married in August 2007, have two sons together, Usher Raymond V, 18 months, and Naviyd, 6 months.

Tameka, who's on twitter (@tamekaraymond) is nonplussed. Tameka's twittin her azz off-with happy twits about Navyid looking cherubic and sharing bible scriptures. But why should she be upset?? She has two children by Usher and will be sitting pretty financially in a minute.

I know Mama Patton is doing her Holy Ghost dance right about now. Stay tuned for details.

And Speaking of Crazy Grandpas...

2009-06-10T22:51:00.004-04:00

Another gramps was on the warpath...this one was in Washington-not the state. At the age of 88, James Von Brunn finally got the nerve up to do something all Neo-Nazis want to do-take out folks that weren't white. He was successful today in his killing- a black security guard Stephen Tyron Johns, died today as a result of being shot.

Based on what I've read about Brunn, he's nothing more than a whiner who blames other peole for his drama, issues, circumstances etc. He has quite a history and even served time in prison for 6 yrs at the age of 62-dude was a serious late bloomer. Be that as it may he's in the hospital-another security guard shot him-and we know he's going to be locked up. But seriously at the age of 88, do you REALLY THINK Brunn gives a rip about serving time?? I don't. I'm not going to spout off hateful rhetoric about white supremacists, skinheads, neo-nazis and their b.s. cuz frankly-they all bore me. They read from the same script and seriously-I have my own drama to contend with. If your interest is truly piqued and you want to know more about Gramps and his abbreviated rampage, click here>>

Thoughts & sympathies are with the Johns family.

Gramps Kills 6y/o Grandson...

2009-06-10T22:26:00.002-04:00

I'm aware of the MI (state I live in) story about the grown daughter who ate her father's dinner roll after he left a note saying DO NOT EAT MY DINNER ROLL-which she ate anyway and resulted in daddy's death. Obviously, they had a serious issue of disrespect going on.

This story in GA says gramps (Robert L. Clark, 55) allegedly killed his grandchild (6y/o, Michael Levine) because he dropped a watermelon. According to Police Chief Gasset, little Michael 'either dropped the watermelon or cut it prematurely.' I REFUSE to sensationalize this tragedy (like other stories I've read) by saying this child was killed over a watermelon. That's not true. This baby (who's dad served time for drugs in prison-WHERE'S MAMA??) died at the hands of a bully who lost a moment of control. According to AJC, the authorities (911) has been called 6 or 7 times in the past. Nice. A neighbor, Rita Whitman said she had witnessed gramps hollering at the kids (Michael has a 5y/o brother also-who was unharmed), The one that he killed, he did yell at him a lot. You did see the occasional explosion of anger. He would just use terrible language, cussing so bad at that one boy. Funny how neighbors want to get involved after the fact. smh

Well gramps got shot by the police, and grandma got shot by grandpa. This is a sad story all around. Gramps'll get some time behind bars, Grandma will get time to live a life w/out abuse, and hopefully in time little brother will be able to put this awful tragedy behind him.

Tragic.

You Go Girl!! Susan Boyle-voice of an angel

2009-06-03T06:44:00.001-04:00

UPDATE: Lawd, it seems the publicity from media, attention from gawkers in addition to not winning Britain's Got Talent top spot (she was runner up to a male dance group-OUCH!!)...proved to be too much for our favorite underdog, Susan Boyle. She has been admitted to a London hospital for exhaustion...poor thing. Regarding the pressure that Susan has endured, Scotland First Minister, Alex Salmond 'was scathing about the media pressure, saying there were “elements of a press who like nothing better than to build people up and then drag them down.” Well tell 'em how you really feel!! lol

Best wishes are with Susan Boyle, and I truly hope we haven't seen the last of her!! source

I cannot watch this video w/out tears!!

Scot Susan Boyle may look dowdy, contrary to a superstar-but she has the voice of an angel! watch as her singing transforms Simon C's smirk into astonishment. The woman can saaaannng and it took her 47years for everyone else to discover what she already knew-NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER!!

Why is this so damn funny??

2009-06-01T16:22:00.007-04:00

I love me some Eminem...depressing ass and all. I have to ask...why does he insist on attending MTV Awards when it seems to me...they live to insult him. Yesterday at the MTV Awards ceremony, Bruno (an Austrian TV reporter portrayed by Sasha Cohen, ***thanks Tha Exaggerator!!) was hovering in the air and lands ass/nuts first in Eminem's face. Why in the hell is that funny?? I'm not sure if the antic was staged or not...but if it was then Eminem deserves an Oscar for best dramatic actor and best Exit scene...cuz he and his entourage exited stage left.

Black Men ABDUCT WHITE WOMAN AND CHILD IN BROAD DAYLIGHT??? YEAH RIGHT!!

UPDATE 3:

Well dayum!! Who'd a thunk it?! Apparently, prejudice ass PA isn't as 'Sweet' on Bonnie Sweeten as I thought they'd be. I stand corrected (seriously). The Philadelphia Inquirer reports (words in parenthesis by me!):

A Bucks County magistrate late last night set bail at $1 million for Bonnie Sweeten, the Feasterville woman who drew national attention with a fake claim that she and her 9-year-old daughter had been kidnapped (BY 2 BLACK MEN-keep the shit straight!!) when instead she had fled to Walt Disney World.

Her being a flight risk is the reason for the astronomical bail amount. Well, all her lying ass has to do...is dip into that $300,000 she allegedly stole and pull out $100k and set her ass free*she only needs 10%-well she can tell her hubby (or ex, whom I think is still in love with her. My theory: she left his ass cuz she caught a bigger fish...but that's just me-pure speckalation!!) where she hid the $ and then bada boom bada bing clink clink rattle rattle...no bars until HER DAMN SENTENCING! She's a piece of damn work-accused of stealing from her relatives. The Inquirer goes on to say, 'The alleged thefts may have involved clients of the law firm where she worked, family members, or both. According to a police detective with knowledge of the investigation, one or more of the accounts were in the names of Sweeten's parents.' She's off the damn hook! smh

Mrs thang is a paralegal (shout out TO THE LEGITIMATE PARALEGALS) who had Truffle dreams with T-bone steak money.
I guess some folks have wised up to her lying ass cuz the Inquirer also reported:

During the 35 hours or so Sweeten that spent in jail, she made seven phone calls, according to the jail log, mostly to her husband, Richard L. Sweeten Jr., and all during a short period on Thursday night.
None of the calls was completed. In some instances the collect charge was not accepted. On several other calls, Sweeten apparently hung up before they were answered.

I heard that, they knew she wasn't going to anything except lie and not take responsibility for her actions...look at her pattern. Anyhooo...until the next update, you can read about this heffa here>>

UPDATE 2: Now that it's established that Bonnie Sweeten's a selfish, lying, thieving, embezzling, bad acting, manipulative money-grubbing ass who didn't even THINK of her husband AND OTHER CHILDREN...what now??? I'm INCREDULOUS at the fact that the media- QUICKLY ASSUMED AND BELIEVED black men were involved in this imaginary ass abduction-and were quick to report the story, this LIE, FABRICATION, UNTRUTH whatever you want to call it- a story that was FULL OF HOLES from its inception btw- but has since EXTRICATED the word 'BLACK' as in 'BLACK MEN' from their stories. LOL I guess they didn't think we'd notice!!

Why is this IMPORTANT phenomenon: White people blaming black men, ie using our men as a damn scapegoat so a white person can get away with a heinous crime, being overlooked... AGAIN?? Sweeten knew 2 BLACK MEN could've been implicated BY HER words, she knew the law would've been on her damn side and not those of the BLACK MEN, and she didn't give a damn that her selfish and witless words could've had a trickle down effect and affected innocent lives BESIDES the 2 BLACK MEN...over a damn imaginary ass crime. How can the media who's supposed to report OBJECTIVELY explain the the quiet disappearance of these word "BLACK " or better yet, why did you modify your article to reflect Sweeten reported she was ....'abducted by two men.'
Is that supposed to make the black community feel better??
Once her thievery came to light, her blaming BLACK MEN for her abduction was swept under the rug so fast, I'm still gagging from the dust! Apparently, embezzling $300k and withdrawing $12k takes precedence over the blaming of two imaginary black males. WTH?? Why is it ok for Susan Smith, that crazy bitch who cut a backwards ass "B" (as in Barack)into her face during the last presidential campaign, Tanya Dacri and other scary ass lunatics to blame BLACK MEN for their crimes?? Do you know what the sad part is? There's a crazy ass white person...who's following Sweeten's story, planning a crime of their own and will yet again blame another BLACK MAN(MEN) and the authorities and the fucking media will eat it up AGAIN, because they're just that stupid and desperate.
I was right about this heffa, and I'll be right again.

*warning: laden w/curse words*

UPDATE: She was a damn lie just like I said she was. How is this thieving ass bitch going to blame BLACK men bcuz she's an embezzler and a thief. She got caught up in STEALING $300,000 from her former employer and the bitch went on the run. And I guess her adrenaline was still pumping and the need to steal hadn't been quite fulfilled so she stole her (now former) co worker's damn ID and headed to Orlando, Fla. Honey with friends like that..well u know the rest. Did she really think she was going to blend in with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck's ass?! WTF?? It's not all white people, I'm aiming my anger towards...it's these cowardly ass mofos who commit a crime and instead of holding themselves accountable when it gets hot...they fall back on the old standby 'BLAME A BLACK MAN.' Lying ass Bonnie knows the judicial system is biased towards blacks and I wouldn't be surprised if she got off with a mere rap on the knuckles with a damn ruler. '...one nation under God indivisible with LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL.' MY ASS!! I refuse to say that 'pledge of allegiance' cuz it doesn't APPLY to my community. If there is ANY justice in the universe...cuz it's definitely not in the U.S. court systems...i ask that Karma comes around and bite that bitch square on her ass. source

I rest my damn case.

ATTENTION BLACK MEN IN PENNSYLVANIA: TWO OF YOU WILL BE DETAINED (UNJUSTLY), AND CHARGED WITH ABDUCTING TWO WHITE PEOPLE IN BROAD DAYLIGHT, BCUZ BONNIE SWEETEN SAID U DID IT....HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL??

This just in: Poor innocent (inject saracasm here) and white Bonnie Sweeten and her innocent (no sarcasm) daughter Julia (9) were ALLEGEDLY abducted by TWO BLACK MEN in broad damn daylight in prejudice ass Pennylvania. Are you fucking kidding me?! Why are white people-who find themelves over their head in muck & mire, so quick to blame black men when they fuck up?? That's right I said it. Why?? Because society is quick to believe that shit about black people. How many times have black men been blamed for white people's crimes?? Susan Smith drowned her kids (submerged them underwater in her car)-DOWN SOUTH- blamed a black man, Charles Stuart of Boston blamed a black man for killing his wife and unborn child-he jumped to his death when it was discoverered HE KILLED them for insurance money. Are you kidding me??

This part, this part right here is what puckers my ass:

Police and the FBI say Sweeten made a cell phone call Tuesday from a car trunk.
She told a 911 dispatcher that she and Julia were kidnapped after the car struck her SUV.
There initially were reports of holes in Sweeten's story, but Klaver
said those weren't the focus of the investigation.
"We're not concerned about any inconsistencies," he (JJ Klaver, FBI spokesperson) told FOX News. "Our main concern is finding that young girl and her mother.
It is not clear whether Sweeten knew the two black men she said abducted her and her daughter around 2 p.m. (HELL NO, THERE WERE NO BLACK MEN!!)

Question: Why in the hell wasn't there a concern for the inconsistencies?? I understand that statement was made before Bonnie & Julia were found, but that was stupid to have said it out loud! I say SEPARATE THEIR ASSES and focus in on what baby Julia has to say. She'll tell the truth.

While, I'm glad they've been found, I'm curious as to the truth. IF it turns out they were in fact abducted in BROAD DAYLIGHT no less, by black men-I will have no problem apologizing and deleting this post. I hope like hell I am wrong. I have been wrong before lol I'm just ready to hear the truth...just as is everyone else.

Oral Sex: The NEW Goodnight Kiss???

2009-05-30T08:16:00.003-04:00

First we as parents had to worry about our kids being molested. Then we had to be concerned with kids engaging in early sex. Then there was the kids meeting kids/adults from online sites. How about kids being abused by other kids in domestic relationships?? Well, now we have to worry about our kids performing oral sex as their way of saying, 'goodnight.' My gawd...what is this world coming to?

ABC presented the documentary called 'Oral Sex Is The New Kiss Goodnight" by Canadian Sharlene Azam and in it young girls-as young as damn 11-are very frank about their sexual exploits. From tricking to get homework done to flat out prostituting. I like how the article said the 'girls are almost always from good homes,' (i.e, WASP). Yeah uhh weren't the kids who shot up Columbine from 'good homes?', what about the Melendez bros?? I guess if the kids were from broken homes, or the hood such antics would be expected. I'm just saying.

It seems oral sex, from girls' viewpoint, is necessary in order to keep a relationship. Hell, I know of adult relationships that evaporated over the same issue.

It is unbelievable that young ladies' bodies, which used to be a prized possession-has now decreased and diminished in value all in an attempt to be accepted, valued or receive material goods by a male counterpart. What happened that these YOUNG female are willing to barter their bodies in exchange for perishable goods?? Weren't these girls taught to value their bodies??? smh

Keeping it real, I was a full grown ass woman before I THOUGHT about and attempted what these teens are doing NOW with no hesitation!! This shit has me trippin for real!!

Ok, I didnt want to get caught up in the 'Sexy Spec, (of the r & b group Pretty Ricky) Tipsy' youtube video vortex but when I saw the hilarious parody...I had no choice. I don't follow kid R & B groups, but one of people I subscribe to on Youtube made such a big deal about this boy 'Sexy Spec' of Pretty Ricky that I had to check it out. Now...if it was only about this boy...I wouldn't have created a post. BUT you must watch this boy's video in order to appreciate the parody of the video:

Kanye West's new vid, "Paranoid"

2009-05-28T09:33:00.001-04:00

The saving grace to this video is Rihanna. She looks fantastic. I can't get into Kanye (I tried) since he insists on being a copycat and follow T-Pain (in my keester) and Lil Wayne and use the voicebox. No talent. I don't care how many awards EBT bestows upon them....smh

Enjoy, and eat your heart out Chris Brown:
