It’s a beautiful day indeed! Share your stories. Where were you at the moment you heard? How have you celebrated? What are your elders saying about this day? What are your children saying about this day? I need to hurry up and request inauguration day off work.

Thanks, aw, for this lead. I’m reposting this article from the LA Times. article title: “Palin Talks to Couric — and if she’s lucky, few are listening” A global financial crisis and a not-quite-suspended presidential campaign dominated newspaper front pages and television reports over the last couple of days.

Got this in an email and thought I’d post it… (source: unknown) If you are biracial and born in a state not connected to the lower 48, America needs darn near 2 years and 3 major speeches to “get to know you.” If you’re white and from a state not …
LOL!!! I feel like I’m at an NBA basketball game when the monitor starts flashing stuff like “Stand On Your Feet!”, “Make Some Noise!”, “Rise Up!”. Or in Mystikal’s song “Bouncing Back (Bumping Me Against The Wall)” You keep bumping me against the wall Yeah I know I let you …
I kept checking my phone, but I think Barack inadvertently left me off his distro. I’ll have to give him a hard time the next time we talk. 😉 So the word that the world has been anxiously awaiting is out. Joe Biden will be running with Barack Obama on …

Hillary, don’t come at me with the “I’m doing this for my daughter…” bullshit because I’m all about feminism and celebrating women of power. You are just being a sore loser! What galaxy are you residing in? I’ve just reached a point where I can’t bear to listen to her …

One of my sisters forwarded this to me and I thought I’d post it. Spike doesn’t break it down to anything super deep, but I playfully like his rationale. If I were him, that’s all the logic I’d need. …btw, I officially turned “black” after seeing Do The Right Thing …
I’m up tonight watching CNN which had Obama on Larry King Live and now Lou Dobbs, and I’m just getting annoyed. They are still going after Obama’s affiliation with Reverend Wright and picking apart every sentence in Obama’s speech earlier this week that inspired me so much. This is just …
