Cheryl: It's the inertia of “old school personnel” that is causing this “generational divide”. Now I've stated the obvious, but I may be giving a “warning” to this present generation to try to avoid the same/similar trend as they move along their life's pathway in the “struggle”.

I'm just sayin' . . . . . :>) :>) :>)

p.s.: Feel free to use the “title”. After all – “you da woman!!” :>) :>)

I don't understand – Niger Innis has been an ass for YEARS. What's the surprise?

Who knew?

John McCain is a petulant little spoiled brat. He gets whatever he wants and when it doesn't look like he's going to get what he wants, he loses his mind.

It was terrible. Fox News without the flaming.

If someone said something good about Barack I missed it.

Corruption to the C.O.R.E. — that should have been the name of my post, ha! I'll keep following this story. CORE is on my list along with the NAACP of orgs that bear watching.

I agree — transparency is going to force some of these organizations to explain their behavior that actually works against the interests of black people. I think the majority of mid-high income black folk are on the right side of these issues esp on the environment and that CORE doesn't represent their interests nor those of lower incomes and education.

The fact that Niger Innis is a part of this is not a surprise. He's the only Civil Rights Org leader that does anything but lead civil rights initiatives and is no better than house negroes like Shelby Steele, Ward Connerly and Jesse Lee Peterson.

I just put the NY Times article this came from on the Sunday Thread…..that article is hilarious, not sure it was supposed to be…but it sure did crack me up. Its like in order to punish him to stay on message, they take away phone priviledges….LMAO!! I was just on the phone with my nephew who was upset that his mom took away his Gameboy for a week because he misbehaved in church………..who knew 72 yr old presidential candidate John McCain had so much in common with a 7 yr old little black boy in Alabama? LOL!!

As Ced the Entertainer says,

He's a grown-assed man and can't use a cellphone?

Was MTP that bad? I saw that Broder and Gigot were going to be on, and I was like, hell no.

3. From Black Politics on the Web: Growing Diversity in Swing Counties Favors Obama

http://blackpoliticsontheweb.com/2008/08/09/gro...

Here are some of the affected counties/States:
Osceola in central Florida; Mecklenberg in N.C.; Lake in NE Ohio; Lehigh in eastern Pennsylvania.

Seeee – this was an unpredictable phenomenon/”MOVEMENT” – if you will! :>) :>)

Any comments from y'all who live in/near these areas??

My reaction: MOVE ON!!!! :>) :>) :>) o.k. It's sick! :>) :>)

This must be a joke, right?

John McCain's Cell Phone Privileges Have Been Curtailed

Wonder who he's been chatting with that would make his campaign manage act like his daddy.

So the man who wishes to be president doesn't speak for his campaign and can't be trusted to freely use his cell phone by his own people.

Sing along....

John McCain is UNFIT to be POTUS.

Mike Barnacle can't even speak correctly. He has no business anchoring a television “news” show.

More media surrogating for John McCain

It's working overtime to bring Barack down. Between this and the slimeballs on Meet the Press this morning, they're hoping to reverse the gallup trend upward for Barack.

I absolutely loathe David Gregory.
