* 9-11 mastermind Kahlid Steak and Shake Muhammed says he wants to die, so he can be a martyr. That's fine with me, but to be more precise, Shakey-boy, all you're going to be is another dead dickhead, and I shall shed no tears for you.
* Since promising she would not allow the then $2.90 gas prices to rise any higher, Nancy Pelosi has an 11% approval rating - and that's with her husband and kids. The rest of us see her as a much, much, bigger asshole.
* Marin Luther King once said, "I dream of living in a country where my four girls are judged NOT by the color of their skin, but by the strength of their character." Absolutely stunning and powerful words, that sadly - ARE NOT - being adhered to. In a NY Pravda Times article yesterday, the word "black" was used no fewer than 5 times in the first two paragraphs about the presumptive democratic nominee. Senator Obama himself has stated in the past week that this campaign should be about "issues", not things like his wife's statements, Tony Rezko, Pentagon-bombing terrorists, Jeremiah Wright, Hammas connections, etc. Since a wise person once said, "you will be judged by the company you keep", it seems Senator Obama has forgotten the late civil rights pioneer's message as well.
How sad.
When the first person of color is on the precipice of the presidency, the man who paved the way - and died for it, by the way - is being spurned by the person who is about to benefit most from Dr. King's justified persistence. Racism is alive and flourishing in this country alright, but I'm skeptical of the direction the finger is being pointed.

He will be judged by the company he keeps...and the media will sugar coat it as to make it easier for some to swallow, and the rest of us will be called names for not supporting the big O. You are right- it is sad.
I hope they fry Steak and Shake- and I think Pelosi's approval rating is still too high.
