Black Woman in America

This is my post in response to and as a reaction to watching CNN’s Black In America. I missed part of the first night, but was able to see all of the second. I’m glad that CNN decided to show this again, as I aparently missed it when it was shown last year, I guess.
Anyway [...]

Oscar Shows The Love

I must say there were three things that moved me last night during the Oscars extravaganza on ABC. First was the traditional Barbara Walter’s Special before the show. I don’t recall ever crying during one of Bab’s specials, but I cried last night.

I’m just saying, like.
Whether you’re a disgruntled Democrat or a rebellious Republican…

The Bank CEOs are getting grilled by Congress today. Good! And about dang time if you ask me. I’ve been listening in via CNN (mais bien sur!). And I’m again forced to struggle against my Pacifist upbringing and Buddhist training.

Splain Me Dis Lucy

I’m totally confused. This Economic Stimulus Plan dealyo has got me all twisted. I’m sort of in the middle. On paper I’m a Democrat and have been since I first started voting. In my heart I’m more of a Green Partier or Independent. But after my father explained to me about our pretty much two-party [...]

People Hate Paying Taxes

I’m  sure this is not news to anyone. Our human history on this planet is rife with incidents of people, societies, nations etc expressing issues with having to pay taxes, or protesting when taxation gets out of hand and so forth.
