The Boy Who Cried Wolf and other Bedtime stories

Once upon a time…
How many times did your parents read the Boy who Cried Wolf to you?  Perhaps you read it in grade school when you were learning about myths and fables.  I think almost all societies have a children’s tale about a child that cries out about something foul just to get attention [...]

Is this the Ludacris Obama thought he knew?

Just when you think Obama can’t possibly have any more friends out there that could anger “typical white women” we get this inspirational gem from rapper Ludacris.

Oh, this is really going to go over well with the PUMA movement:  Hillary= Bitch per Ludacris
And the Civil Rights movement:  Jesse Jackson = Slick [...]

We have NOT come a long way, baby

I’m the stereotypical PUMA.  I came of age in the 70s and joined the UWAG (University Women’s Action Group) while at the University of Nebraska working on the first of several degrees.  I remember fighting hard to get tougher rape laws in place including getting officers assigned to rape cases out of the Property Crimes [...]

Today is the Internet Censorship Day of Protest!

 
This website supports Amnesty International’s Uncensor China Campaign

The source of this information and of this protest is Amnesty International.  If you lived in China you would not be able access even the most basic information about Human Rights, Freedom, the Falun Gong, AIDS, SARS nor would you be allowed FaceBook, MYSpace, CNN or Wikipedia.

Worst of the One Hit Wonders

Remember those days of AM radio when every radio station played the same songs endlessly?  Some of them were really good, but by the time you heard them for the umpteenth time, you felt like screaming and throwing your little radio in that pool.
There are now two folks on that one hit wonder list for [...]

Human Rights Violators should NOT be rewarded with Money or Prestige!

This picture was sent to me earlier this year by a friend that is a Buddhist monk.  We are both of the faith typically called “Tibetan”  Buddhism.  As such, we’re pretty much automatically labelled enemies of the Chinese People.  I wanted to share this picture with you because of several things going on right now [...]

In Other News … There’s an Environmental Disaster in My Back Yard

While the East Coast-centric press is following the very junior senator’s campaign to look presidential and world leaderly, there’s a major oil spill in my back yard.  I live about three blocks from the Mississippi river in New Orleans and for the last three days, my home and my neighborhood have smelled like diesel.  My [...]

Next up in Germany: Obamapalooza

Yesterday, a Rasmussen Poll demonstrated that the majority of American’s are not buying the Obama Magical Mystery Tour.
“While Barack Obama has touted his travel to the Middle East and Europe this week as a “fact-finding” trip, 63% of Americans do not believe it makes the Democratic candidate any more qualified to be president.”

Lookat this!!!  This is Hillary’s financing report!  Notice the Cash on Hand and the Debt!  You know what that means, don’t you!!!!!   Also, notice the best part … that would be the 89% coming from individual donors.

After raising $229.4 million through the end of May, Clinton lost the delegate race to Barack Obama and ended [...]
