  • blksista
    The brother is talking my talk, but he needs to face the camera, not read from his speech. It appears as if he is blind.

    Nothing a good media specialist can't fix.

    i wish him well.
  • blksista
    **Stunned.**

    Over on the Today Show, they're giving Jindal another go round...SMH!! What is it, General Electric couldn't stand yet another turndown?

    Forward similar sentiments to one Governor Bob Riley, R-Alabama, who's relying on a stupid 'states rights' argument to reject funds that would extend unemployment benefits to Alabamians. Somehow, the acceptance of this new money from the federal government is a 'bribe' with the intention of federal intrusion on Alabama affairs.

    I swear, its stupid ish like this that makes me wanna move out of Alabama.
  • blksista
    You know, it's going to have to take mass assemblies and marches to get these idiots to take that money for THEIR people!
  • spirit_55z
    blksista, you know that's what it's going to take. MAKE THE NEGROS BEG for the mofo help and then call them BEGGERS AND WELFARE QUEENS AND KINGS.

    Jindal is shamefully deceptive in his motives to reject the aid his state needs, and he will FRY for this.
  • blksista
    It will be white folks getting in those marches, believe you me.

    Just watch.

    WATCH.
