How Stupid is Melissa McEwan?

Apparently, VERY.

That last picture…I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a photo from a modern American presidential campaign quite like it.

Out with substance, in with imagery!

This is the state of the “Progressive Blogosphere”.

I got your fuckin “teaspoon”.

For the most part, career liberals agreed to keep their traps shut in pursuit of career advantage. (Presumably, this doesn’t mean everyone.) But in this way, we hand the other side a massive political advantage. This week, voters are hearing, over and over, about the unfairness of Palin’s coverage. Because we’ve kept so quiet so long, these voters have no way to put these claims into context.

Kevin won’t tell you. Josh won’t tell you. Ezra spoke once, then shut the f*ck up. Your “nominal allies” are very quiet. Atrios rarely offers a peep. Why do they hate the Judds so?

It may not matter in this particular year—but it’s an amazingly stupid political play. But then, stupid is all around you this week, as the election draws near. Scarborough was deeply stupid today—but our side has been pushing some bull-roar too And people, mark our words on this: Stupidity only serves power! This morning, the backlash is already on, with Palin defended (by Brzezinksi and Jay Carney) for the outrageous attacks on her clothes. Gore received no such backlash or defense—and his wardrobe was savaged for months.

If liberals had an ounce of sense, we’d work to eliminate such inane topics from our pitiful public discourse. Inanity—like stupidity—only serves power. We’ll explore this sad theme all this week, in this, the stupidest week of the year. With amazement, we’ll note the growing way our side has embraced stupid too.

Smyrna Boy Abandoned By His Mom in Nebraska Returns to GA

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

A Georgia woman took advantage of a loophole in a Nebraska law to abandon her 12-year-old son in Lincoln last week.

And now Georgia officials are on their way to Nebraska to bring him back.

Tysheema Brown, 33, said she tried everything she could do to help her son before driving over 1000 miles to take advantage of Nebraska’s “Safe Haven” law.

The law was originally intended to protect unwanted infants. Every state has a Safe Haven law, but Nebraska is the only state that does not have an age cap.

In Georgia, the age cap to abandon a baby without fear of prosecution is 3 days old.

Since Nebraska’s law took effect in July, 20 children ranging in age from 1 to 17 years have been dropped off at local hospitals. Critics of the law argue that it was never intended to allow frustrated parents to abandon teenagers.

This law has had serious, unintended consequences,” Nebraska Gov. Dave Heineman said in a statement. “It needs to be changed to focus on its original intent — protecting infants.

Heineman said that the state legislature intends to meet to amend the safe haven law so that it only applies to infants up to three days old. The next legislative session isn’t until January 2009.

Brown saw no other option but to drive to Nebraska after her mom told her about Nebraska’s Safe Haven law. Her son had been kicked out of two schools for fighting and he was arrested for stealing a camera. Brown feared he would end up in the state’s badly run juvenile corrections facilities.

“I just broke out crying,” said Brown, who drove over 15 hours straight with her son and 7-year-old daughter. She left her son at Lincoln General Hospital East on Saturday night. “I ran out of fight. I ran out of hope,” she said. “I never ran out of love for my child.

Brown said when they reached Nebraska her son turned to her and said, “Mom, do I have to go?

Yes,” she replied. “You have to go.

The Mis-education of "Swagger"…. who, what, when and why the f*ck is everybody c*ckriding this word…anotha rant of course…

October 28, 2008 ihadnochoice 39 comments

This is strictly off the top of the dome so bare with me. Seems like all you have to do is wear tight jeans and the rag of your choice and you got it. Sag em a lil off your ass and walk like you got a sawed off down your pants and you got it. Or find the brightest pair of Nike Dunks you can find and… you damn sure got it.  Shiiit…. you can dump you whole paycheck at Gucci and have it. Three parts in your eye brows, now you wanna wild out…… you can have it. Someone needs to realize that true swag cannot be bought ( reference JUELZ killer freestyle circa BET HIP HOP AWARDS 08). My Carhartts and Timbs ooze swag since 93′ bitches…lol. And say something when I step on your cute lil sneakers with my ACG’s. You can keep that colorful ass $300 hoodie… “lemme get that Champion Hoodie six pack for $150 acki”. With the current economy shift… a UPS or Postal Worker uniform is the new gucci since the all the swag that has been purchased over the past couple of years has to be returned for store credit. It hurts my soul to see some of these people out here over do themselves at the attempt that they can somehow channel the “swag gods” to come help them. Niggas hear a MaX B mixtape and now they think they discovered GRAND CRU…..Mohawks at 35….. wearing L’s and M’s when you know damn well you are an XL….. yellow laces on red kicks…… man purses……. silk designer scarfs …. big ass belt buckles …. dookie rope chains…. you name the buffonery and its probably been worn at the expense of attention. When I saw Musiq Soulchilds new video I almost… never fucking mind. If yall saw it, yall know. Now I don’t know what type of chicanery goes on in your neck o da woods but going to a party out here in NYC is likegoing to a fucking circus. Colors and funny hairstyles and clothes on uneven bodies. White people have found their niche in hip hop now. They looked outta place with the overgrown clothes and gangsta apparel of yester-year so the funny looking tight and colorful vibe out now is right up their alley. Now we can live happily ever after… black guys wearing mohawks and skateboarding…. white people wearing dookie ropes and voting for a black president. Swag is no longer how you carry yourself… at least for the majority. Its about how you can make yourself seen even at the expense of your integrity. Puffy posing on a couch with his half naked twin babies ain’t swag… its a call for attention. Lil Wayne wearing a tight ass jacket with no shirt and space boots ain’t swag… its cockriding Kanye…… wearing a dookie rope is just a testament that you don’t know shit about hip hop so you rock that big ass shit to make up for it. Swag is being an individual without comprimising who you are. Now if people in the industry can cockride, you can only imagine how the consumers ride. I remember when diamond grills and iced out pimp cups were “swag”. I remember when button downs with the french cuffs were “swag”. Remember when jerseys were “swag” ? Now I hear about the Jonas’ brothers swag…. even McCain has swag nowadays. Swagger should be put into the vocabulary recycle bin right along with “bling”,”boo boo” and “jiggy”

Heroes last night was fairly good.

Sylar is evil, again.  Except when he threw Peter out the window, he saved him from hitting the ground too hard?

Make up your mind man!

That’s what happens when you shut down the bar.

Bonus points for finding a parking spot downtown around the corner from Jimmy Johns.

Getting up at 9am to drink and shiver?  Naw.

Saturday night smoked myself out and was ready to crash at 8.  But I soldiered up, went to the store and bought some steak, and was grilling at 10.  Pot Life, gotta love it.

Watched Hulk last night…

I like Ang Lee’s version better.  SORRY!!!!  The ‘new’ one copied Ang Lee’s basic structure? Right?  Minus the character development, as feeble as it may have been in Ang’s movie but damn at least he tried.  This ‘new’ version picked up like it was a sequel as well.  Even though I know it’s not, the fam tried to claim it was.  I didn’t wanna correct anyone on the off chance my cousin was right.  But it was creepy.

So in the spirit of poor punctuation and questionable thought processes… here we go…

I wish I would log on this site while I am at home during one of my mentally high brainstorms but my home computer does’t get any love.  One thing that has led to progress in race relations as they relate to my bed is that white women seem to have more in common with US now. We are not listening to more rock or dancing funnier… they are listening to more urban music and getting asses to go with those hips. But my sisters still get top billing followed by the hispos and cooli girls for long term profits but the white women surge are like short sells and must be attributed to the recent wall st collapse as the nation looks for a black leader… i guess the white women are looking for the same…. COUNTRY FIRST BITCHES…lol (paragraph ends here… shoutout to DIG and her ability to teach PHONICS)

And I wish I could be as uppity as the uppitiest negro and do starbucks but coffee runs thru me like… nevermind, yall get it.

When I first started working for this company, my healthcare plan was immaculate… top to bottom…. 80 percent dental…. no co pay among a host of other things. Now a nigga gets a bill sent to his house everytime he presents his insurance card. I can’t imagine what 2 or 3 kids on this plan would do to a nigga…. gotdamn.

Shoutout to LJ for not letting us forget what real football players do…. beat bitches up…lol. All that shooting ain’t football. Beating on your white college sweetheart a la Lawrence Phillips is what the original model was about. Blame it on hip hop.

I can’t wait for this skinny jeans craze to be over. I can’t tell the straits from the fassies. Now niggas are wearing their clothes even  bigger than b4 just to protest

I finnally got to see the white side of Obama. That nigga is a wolf in sheeps clothing. He looked black on the bball court but when I saw him dancing on some tv clip last night OMG !!!! That nigga is stiff as McCains dead body. But Michelle is becoming the model of what every black man wants their woman to look like at 43.

Madonna is Madonna and you can do all you want to your face and that body but that cooch is still pushing 50. I ain’t ever seen 50 year old cooch before and don’t want to until I am at least 75. You should be ashamed of yourself ARod. I mean.. I might fuck and keep it moving but… ewwwww… I don’t even want to think about it.

The next time you don’t want to be embarrased in front of your company… take her ass somewhere appropriate. This nigga gon bring his bitch to a fight party and get mad at the noise level and language. You better take that soft bitch to a sushi diner nigga. We talking about fucking hoes and he in there telling us to hold it down. You better hold it down before you leave by yourself nigga.

Holloween in Miami… trick or treat….. I think I will be going door to door on Collins ave looking for candy…lol.
