I love 30 Rock too!

While Studio 60 irritated me from the beginning, 30 Rock was terrific to me. The tag team of Alec Baldwin and Tracy Morgan just totally worked. Alec Baldwin simply throws away NO LINE. Any time his character opens his mouth, I wind up smiling, and most times, LOL. I want 30 Rock to make it.

Original article: Is Obama safe?

Of course he's worried

No sane Black person wouldn't be worried about safety. I'm sorry, but this is still America. Of course he should be concerned. It's a very real problem.

Why is Salon being so damn obvious?

You're for Hillary.

You're against Barack.

I get that.

I got from the moment you used UPPITY in a story about Barack.

I get that you're trying to run him down.

I'm a supporter of Obama, but this is almost too easy, because this site has become far too stupid when it comes to Obama attacks.

Dickerson needs to hang it up. She obviously has 'issues' of her own, and is using Obama as come sort of ' therapy.'

But, she needs to stop posting tripe like this.

It matters because of tv ad time

I think it's been interesting to see how well the Democrats have been in raising money.

The whole Romney thing is still stunning to me.

I think the President of Iran hit a home run

With this ' crisis'. He's done well in this tv age.

Nothing wrong with Speaker Pelosi's trip

We should be talking to Syria. Why not? It's ridiculous, and the neocons need to STFU and go away.

This is a positive thing he's doing

If he's really sincere, then I've finally found a decent Republican.

Original article: Michelle Obama's sacrifice

Dickerson's Obama Hit Pieces Keep On Coming

Now that Dickerson has done her hit pieces on Barack Obama, now she's going after Michelle.

Michelle Obama is an honors graduate of Princeton and a Harvard Law School graduate. She WILL be able to find a job.

Michelle Obama is doing what a good LIFE PARTNER/WIFE does.

Her husband has a shot at the Democratic nomination for President of the United States of America.

That's the Big One, Ms. Dickerson.

He needs all hands on deck, and he needs her hands above all else. She is his best surrogate. She's as good as he is, in a different way and manner, but she's terrific on the campaign trail.

She loves her husband. He's going after the Presidency. If she didn't do everything in her power to help him, there will always be the ' what if?' question.

Something had to give. Running for President is a 24/7 job for the entire family, and her family is what's most important to her - I believe that. She did what she had to do for her FAMILY, and I don't think she has to explain, let alone apologize, to anyone for her decision.

This clinches it. Don't want to hear another word about impartiality

from this rag.

This is what...I can't count....HOW MANY HIT PIECES Salon has done on Obama.

This RAG has gone completely into the gutter.

From the utterly racist - REMEMBER YOU CALLED OBAMA UPPITY...

To the patently ridiculous - THIS PIECE OF TRIPE.

You're against Obama. I get that.

This swill is pathetic.

I'm tired of the attacks on the Black Church

And, I'm tired of White Homosexuals & Progressives thinking that they're going to shame those Black churchgoers into submission.

The complete disrespect towards the Black Church that I have been reading since this all began has made my blood pressure rise.

Riddle me this, how does ANY Democrat, let alone Obama, WIN without the Black Church Vote.

Don't be ridiculous and think that Jasmyne Cannick, Keith Boykin and Michael Eric Dyson speak for the average Black churchgoer, because they do not.

The average Black churchgoer has views more akin to Mr. McClurkin.

These are the facts where Black folk and Gays are concerned:

Question: Do you believe that there should be discrimination in JOBS and HOUSING against homosexuals/lesbians?

Answer: NO - in the high 60's.

Question: Do you believe Gays should be allowed to marry?

Answer: NO - in the high 60's.

Question: Do you believe that homosexuality is a sin?

Answer: YES - in the high 60's.

These are the basic positions of the Black Community, as verified in polling.

These positions are rooted deeply in the Black conservative religious tradition.

Obama's problem, after the idiot staffer who didn't vet McClurkin, and he issued the statement that he didn't agree with McClurkin's views, was that he didn't tell the White Gay Groups to go somewhere and sit down.

There is NO WAY, IN HELL, after he had disrespected his pastor, Dr. Wright, that Barack Obama could be viewed, by the Black Community, as allowing OUTSIDERS to dictate what happened at that concert, especially in a state like South Carolina, where 83% of Black folk go to church twice a month, and 74% believe that the Bible is the literal word of God. He could have hung it up.

If you White Progressives believe that ANY Democrat can win WITHOUT the Black church vote..

You are the epitome of DELUSIONAL.
