Original article: Black vs. "black"

don't let the anger get to you

Mr. Big Stylez, I hear alot of hurt in your post. The best answers many times can be found in the middle, through nuance. Balancing Gary's viewpoint and Debra's viewpoint could be a good place to start. By directing your hurt at someone else through anger, you're just letting the ugliness get to you. Next time someone knocks over whatever in the store because you think they were avoiding contact with you, how about calmly picking up what they knocked over? Not for any reason except that something was knocked over. Then continue doing what you went to the store to do. When you see your friends, buy them a beer, tell them your story and laugh about it.

VP or mother of the year?

Are voters out there astute enough to discern between VP verses mother of the year? I would probably vote for Palin as mother of the year, but VP of a whole nation? It takes much more than the ability to raise a large family and being in charge of a large town to lead a nation in today's complex world.

VP or mother of the year?

Mother of the year, maybe. But VP of a whole nation? No thanks. It takes much more to lead a nation in today's complex world, than someone who can take care of a large family and runs a large town.
