Tuesday Morning Worship: for President Barack Hussein Obama

 

My sight sees again:

A Tuesday morning -- January 2009

*Ann’s son places his hand upon

President Lincoln’s Bible and swears himself

to  35 words straight from the constitution:

 "I do solemnly swear that I will

faithfully execute the office of President of the United States,

 and will to the best of my ability,…

As I watch the political machinations of extremists  of every stripe in this country, it occurred to me that maybe I…

It saddens me that Romney’s son wants to punch out the president.  In the first debate the president was a gentleman, although some said he was passive, Romney was the one who was rude. He interrupted the moderator and the president on several occasions yet he was considered the winner of the debate. In the second debate the president was quite assertive and he’s been called negative along with some other choice descriptions.  Flash back 50 years to a time in United States history when a…

Ok, so I am at home working. Thinking and writing and thinking about the Late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. August 28 was the anniversary of the March on Washington . . . . My mind keeps drifting to the late President Abraham Lincoln, Mr. Mitt Romney, and the Republican Party.

 

Ok so I keep thinking about this Republican convention. I am not there; I am probably not an invited guest because, well, I am a Democrat; my parents raised me that way. They taught me to be true to…

I ‘m Blessed; I am Black America

I am Robert Hayden’s “Middle Passage.”

I took a voyage through death/

To life upon these [America] shores. . . .

Twas mercy brought me from my pagan land, 

Taught my benighted soul to understand 

That there's a God, that there's a Saviour too. . . .

I am Dudley Randalls Harriet Tubman

Before we get started today America does not have a debt crisis. How can I say that? A country with a debt crisis can’t sell its debt so its bonds go for 20% or 30% or so but ours are going for like 2%. Our debt as a percentage of GDP is about three times less than Japan’s. Japan’s debt sits at 200% of their GDP. So look folks, there is no debt crisis. This austerity meme is out there for ulterior motives that have to do with protecting the wealthy and screwing the ordinary. It should also be… Continue

Is there any hope to use the 2 party system to in this country to change things in a real way for a better future for our children ?

If you feel that Wall street has bought both parties and limits our range of choices (and even the range of dialog on all issues by owning the media), if you think that Obama has done nothing to help most working and poor people, if you believe he has done nothing to change the course of US empire building in the world, then…

If we are able, take our faces away from the distraction of the media blitz; still the racing of our hearts, for just a second...and ask how does this make us great...? We are sending children to bed hungry at a rate similar to the Kennedy years. There are more Black men in prison, today, than were sent here on slave ships. We are approaching numbers of homelessness that have not been seen since the "great…

Appently Donald Trump is attempting to restore value to his brand by appeasing racist.  He's had to get a job to keep up his billionaire front.  It's hard out there for a pimp.  Pimping Mrs. America lbviously isn't paying that swell for the Donald.  The real estate game is in the gutters and his brand proved to be a failure on the draw for his Casino (his trump card wasn't high enough). 



So he's in the Conservative trenches vying with other… Continue

Dear Representatives, Senators and President Obama:

I humbly ask that you do not allow the proverbial tail on the dog to wag the dog. In other words, DO NOT extend President Bush's tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans. This is America and here we are to care about each other- take that “suppose to care” terminology out of the equation. Of course, if you have awakened…
