Jack & Jill Politics

You didn’t lose me, everybody’s representing, but we can’t. Can we?

I like the show. It’s another borrowed idea from the Brits, like Millionaire, Super Nanny, Idol and others. If ever there was a reason for hiring a diverse group of people in front of and behind the camera it would be for that. I was impressed by how elegant Jason looks but Cheryl and Christian bring the heat. Kristi will probably win. I always thought Carrie Ann [sp] was a little bit harder on her which kinda had me laughing a bit. It’s not something you see regularly.

IMPORTANT. . .

Alright. . . there’s some person over at Talking Points Memo Cafe who posts under the name “Bserious.”

THIS IS NOT ME.

Does anyone know who this person is?

I’m asking because he or she (let’s just say, “he”) has a habit of posting other people’s work without proper attribution.

I won’t speak to motive, but his posts are very misleading. He basically copies someone else’s work without mentioning the author. In my case (and in that of at least one other post) he failed to even list the link back to the original blog.

It’s misleading because people over there think it’s his work. IT’S NOT!

It’s particularly frustrating for me because he uses my screen name. So now some people might think that I’m the one who’s doing this.

I already had one person contact me who thought I lifted his work without attributing the source.

Let me repeat. . . I AM NOT the person over at TPM.

I don’t know who it is, but it seems to be someone who frequents the black blogospher quite often.

In the past day I’ve noticed that several of his posts were taken from bloggers such as:

myself (B-Serious)
Field Negro
Big Man (Raving Black Lunatic)
Kellybelle (ephphatha)

Again, sometimes he lists the link at the tail end of the post (which most people miss and think it’s his work anyways). Other times (such as with my piece) he skips attribution altogether.

If anyone knows who this is, I ask that this person stop and would prefer that he change his screen name so as to avoid further confusion.

I tried to post a clarification in the comments section of his latest blog (“Poor Hillary”), but it never showed up. And, as far as I can tell, there’s no email address where one can reach this person.

I DO NOT want people thinking that I go around posting other people’s work in my own name.

Nice to see Jason preparing for his life’s work, cause he will NOT be sporting the #99 come September.

With all the talk going on in regards to how FAIR attacks on Michelle Obama are, Isn’t anyone going to address the fact that the attacks themselves are the same boundless hyperedited out of context foolishness that started the whole Jeremiah Wright Ish and basically proves that there cannot be a smoking October Surprise because all they can put together is this crap, over and over and over again.

love this video of obama telling the gop to “lay off my wife”. AMEN, Barack.

bpm,

I might just have to do that. I just wanted to see if anyone knew what’s up before I write the email.

I posted about this in the Patti Solis Doyle thread. She pointed to Obama and Bill Richardson as being “sexist.” Why are the minority guys being tagged as “sexist”? Come on, now.

Ferraro also said that Hillary had to endure somebody showing up at her rally with a sign saying IRON MY SHIRT but everyone would have been in an uproar if somebody showed up at Obama’s rally with a sign saying SHINE MY SHOES.

There has been sexism in this campaign, but blaming Obama for it is not the move. She needs to blame the MEDIA for a lot of the sexism but she ain’t gonna do that because 1) the media signs her paychecks and 2) she’s mad that Obama flashed up and took Hillary’s “spot”.

How was the shoulder brush sexist? Or Annie Oakley? Ferraro needs to step away from the spotlight, fast.

I love DWTS, although this season not so much.

@ Ms.Martin-

Here’s the video: http://rawstory.com/rawreplay/?p=1092

Rachel said that she didn’t take Ferraro’s examples as being sexist. She said that Obama brushing his shoulders off is a hip-hop reference (although that gesture and phrase pre-dates Jay-Z).

IMO, I thought Rachel was a little too quiet during the interview. There were several opportunities for Rachel to shut Ferraro down, but she didn’t. Then again, Ferraro took over the interview, not giving her a chance to say anything.

Edyta is a terrific dancer and has done wonders with Jason. He should have a very good year in football.
Spray tan helps show off her muscularity and makes good contrast to her outfits.
Plus…dark skin just looks better, don’t you think?

DWTS has been my saving grace from the fucktrocity that is MSM and this election. I needed a mental break and DWTS is bloody good fun. I’ve been youtubing the Strictly Come Dancing versions in the UK and Australia. Personally my fav is Kristi because I love her dance partner Mark!

I am sick of Ferraro’s claim of sexism and Obama. Is Clinton vetted or not? I wish I could go on my job and play schizo and not have someone call me on it. One day I can say that I’m competent and can hang with the “boys”, and the next I can whine about sexism because of a perceived “pile on”. And Sybillary wants to be PRESIDENT? Is she gonna cry sexism when leaders of other nations treat her indifferent? She. Makes.Me. Sick. There was a time when I admired her and would of voted for her, but I never will vote for her. NOT EVER.

This “victimhood” is seriously leaving a sour taste in my mouth. What type of feminist attitude does Sybillary marrying a man fully knowing his p*ssy hound ways? Then staying with a lying, cheating, p*ssy hound hubby for power, status, and the MONEY. The biggest crock of shit I’ve heard from the Clinton camp to date.

FUCK. YOU. Ferraro. I am sick and tired of this whiny misplaced rant about “sexism”. This is nothing by a weak ploy to gain sympathies NH style from the voting public.
