LA Lawless

Image
Once again our nation, more specifically the great State of California was embarrassed. Only this time it didn't involve OJ Simpson. After the Lakers clinched their 15th NBA championship by defeating the Orlando Magic, some of the Neanderthals disguised as fans went on a thuggish rampage in the streets outside the staples Center. Police cars and cabs were damaged , windows were smashed, stores were looted and there were 25 arrest-and this happened after a victory! I have never understood this type of "jubilation". Growing up I was a huge boxing fan and never after a Sugar Ray Leonard KO did I get the urge to go out and smash windows at the local McDonald's or throw bricks at passing trains. Not all of this of idiocy can be blamed on the-a a-a-a-a-alcohol because I'm almost certain I'm sure some of those losers have been career vandals. Everyone knows the guy who is just looking for an excuse to tear some stuff up. Whether his teams win or lose he's ready t...

GOP Ego-nomics

Image
A couple of months ago, a national controversy erupted when it was suggested by Democratic operative James Carville that the leader of the Republican party was Rush Limbaugh. The message was foolishly countered by RNC Chairman Michael Steele who dismissed Rush as "an entertainer". The debate continues within the party as to who the leader of the party is. The party is indeed out of sync with the trouncing it received in the last two elections. The hard core conservative crowd is at odds with the "bigger tent" wing who feel as though the party needs to be more "inclusive"-which to me means compromising. I have an idea on who the spokes person should be: Republicans. The party can and should come to a consensus and promote a unified message-when the party nominates its candidate for 2012, he or she will become the face of the party and sell that message to the American people. I would like to see "old School" conservatives like former speaker of t...

Home Grown Crazy

Tuesday, an anti Semitic psychopath opened fire at the Holocaust museum in Washington D.C., killing a security guard, who managed to shoot and wound the gunman. The Killer was a known white supremacist and Jew hater. Last week in Little Rock Arkansas, a African American Muslim convert shot two US soldiers, killing one in retaliation for what he calls the murder of innocent Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan."I do feel I'm not guilty," said shooter Abdulhakim Muhammad. "I don't think it was murder, because murder is when a person kills another person without justified reason." Also last week, late term abortion doctor George Tiller, known as the "Tiller the baby Killer" was gunned down while attending church in Wichita Kansas by mad "right to lifer" Scott Roeder(pictured). I hope this remind those of us who are race obsessed that they are living in a fantasy land of ignorance. There is evil among us and we have no idea in what form it will co...

Talk Like an Egyptian

Image
President Barack Obama delivered his highly anticipated speech in Cairo today. The President touched on several issues that he feels have caused deep divisions between Islam and the West. I must say that as someone who thinks his speeches are grossly overrated, I was somewhat surprised in that this speech contained a little more substance than usual. Of course, it consisted of the routine pandering and empty slogans about common ground. However I credit him for his straight talk to the Palestinians about renouncing violence. I did have a few problems with the speech which goes to the heart of my core criticisms of the president. In typical Obama fashion he engaged in duplicity. He greeted the audience in Arabic, his speech was littered with references to his Islamic roots, and his Christianity- things he shied away from during the campaign. Why is the President so comfortable with speaking about god and his religion while abroad but not here at home in America? I find it disturbing tha...

Fashion None-Sense

Image
I have noticed more and more over the past couple years a very disturbing fact. A large percentage of black men are dressed like bums and or Hoodlums. When does one ever notice a polished or decently dressed African American male under the age of 40? Its nearly impossible to find a young black male whose fashion ideology has not been touched by Rocca wear or Ekko. Hoodies, sneakers and the dreaded saggy jeans hanging off the behind are trademarks or many young blacks. Unfortunately its not a purely urban phenomena. Its hard to distinguish between urban and suburban dwellers. Young black men from all socio- economic classifications are "rockin" their gear as well as a fair number of whites. Who is to blame for this madness? Obviously the entire hip hop culture, which encompasses music, fashion, and language...or lack thereof. I place the blame squarely at the feet of Russel Simmons who is to hip hop fashion what Howard Stern is to shock radio. Simmons has made millions with h...

Abolish The Congressional Black Caucus

Image
The recent sideshow which was the CBC's visit to Cuba in which they slobbered all over the Castro regime, has validated everything I believe about this pathetic crowd: It should go the way of the 8 track. I won't mention the fact that its members are elected to serve all of its constituents, both black and non-black. I have yet to figure out what its purpose is. It appears nothing more than an exercise in black group think which is all to common in our community. Many of us cannot seem to function less we wrap ourselves in the false security blanket of blackness; hence the reason for associations of Black Nurses, Policemen, Firefighters, Social workers, Skiers, Sports agents and MBA's just to name a few. This organizations only purpose-as is most other race based organizations- is to make its members feel powerful or relevant, no matter how powerless or irrelevant some of them actually are. The National Association of Black Social Workers once refused to allow a white ma...

AIG and the Bogus Bonus Debate

Image
When it comes to the media, I must give the devil his due. The AIG bonus debacle is just another example of the mindless American public falling victim the media hysteria machine. Our government decides to bailout a giant corporation with taxpayer dollars and at the same time tell them what they can't do with the money. Let's think about this: If I borrow $1,000 from a friend to help get my out of credit card debt, then it makes no sense for my Friend to give me the money and then tell me not to pay the credit card company. If my friend objects then they shouldn't give me the money. When the bailout was approved, what obligations did the feds think AIG had? Financial institutions are on the hook half the time to other financial institutions. My problem with the bailout is our federal government who allow the same circus performers on our financial services committee to bungle once again. This is solely where the public anger should be focused. Chris Dodd, managed to tell t...
