The New York Post is under fire because of a new President Obama cartoon seemingly linking him to a crazy money. Check out the cartoon in the picture attached to this post. This is from an article I read at the Huffington Post.
What the hell were they thinking. This is the single most outrageous act by a media outlet since President Obama began his quest to become elected the first black President in US history. I see why other idiots are out there trying to assassinate him. Check out the video and tell me what you think. Is this racism or just bad judgement. I would call it racist, but that’s just me.
On many levels, the Internet means a lot to me. For the last year and a half, it has been the source that has allowed me to provide for my family. I have learned many skills to make money online as well as acquiring skills to offer my services to offline businesses as well. Although the economy has also had a major impact on my business, my long term success with Internet related services continue to drive my passion to learn more and push forward.
I love the Internet because it gives me the ability to operate a global business. I have had customers and clients from all over the globe. The Internet has also allowed me to meet people from all walks of life and all corners of the globe. My new perspective on life is surrounded by the fact other cultures have more in common than I once thought. The media makes it like we all have nothing in common, but I would argue different. Its funny how common interests can bring people together who are a world apart.
I love the Internet because I can use all the resources of others to accomplish things I once thought were impossible. Never in a million years did I ever believe that my life would depend on the Internet so much. I always envisioned that the world wide web would one day change they way businesses operate, but I never thought it would change me.
I love the Internet because it gives me hope. It allows me to believe that all the dreams I once had can still be achieved. I never wanted more than the ability to be comfortable, provide for my family, and help those less fortunate. The Internet gives me a reason to believe that I can still have those goals.
When I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure over two years ago, I saw my dreams crumble before my eyes. I thought my condition would not allow me to achieve the lofty goals I set so long ago. But what I underestimated was the fact I had other options. At that time, I did not see what my future could become because I was blinded by frustration and depression. But one day, I got on the Internet for one specific purpose. My plan was to try to make an extra income to help support my family. I was feeling less than a man because I was no longer the breadwinner in my household. Little did I know, there was more in store for me. Not only did I create a new income stream, but my dreams were rejuvenated. I have since made bigger goals to take my income to another level thanks to the Internet.
For these reasons and more, I really do love the Internet. It is everything I have been looking for but couldn’t find. Although my heart once failed me, it has also given me a new reason to love.
I’m finally back at it!
I have been away for awhile working on all types of projects. I have not posted to this blog in over a month and I should be ashamed of myself. I promise in the future I will do better. I will of course be talking about controversial topics as well as some projects I have been working on and more.
Stay TUNED!
Today I saw something very disturbing. It is video footage of a police shooting in Oakland, CA. In the video, the police shoot and kill an unarmed man for no apparent reason. If you watch it, you will agree that something went terribly wrong.
People in Oakland are now rioting because nothing has been done to the officer, who in my opinion, committed a crime and should be punished to the fullest extent of the law. I am outraged also because of this and I can only imagine what I would do if I were in Oakland. Hell, if I had money, I’d go there for this one for sure.
Anyway, watch the video below and determine for yourself. Check it out below.
Here is a funny incident involving President Bush. It is an Iraqi journalist throwing two shoes at the President. It’s funny to me because President Bush actually dodges them quite well. Check it out below.
This is the hottest controversy in the media right now. According to a report by the Chicago Tribune, the Governor of Illinois Rod Blagojevich has been arrested for trying to sell the vacated Senate seat of President-Elect Barack Obama. Here is what he said yesterday to defend himself:
One day later here is what is going on:
This must be the dumbest Governor in US history. Stay tuned to see how this one plays out.
This is a short video clip of George W. Bush admitting he was unprepared for war. It’s not like we all didn’t know this already, but he decides to admit it now because he on his way out. I guess this is a way to get this off his chest to relieve some stress.
He then mentions how he thinks people perceive what being the president is like. I think he is off in his own little world. This guy is clueless to what is real.
No wonder he will go down as the “suckiest” President in history.
Rev. Jeremiah Wright returned to the pulpit of Trinity United Church of Christ on Sunday, reports Manya Brachear of the Chicago Tribune. Will the networks notice that Wright suggested ABC and CNN were “the gates of Hell”? They might enjoy Wright suggesting Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly were Satan, but he also listed the Chicago newspapers and Time magazine. He also mocked Elizabeth Hasselbeck as factually challenged – even as he insisted that December 7 was the day the United States dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima instead of Pearl Harbor Day.
“Jesus said upon this rock I will build–listen to the promise–my church,” he said. “And the gates of Hell–listen to the promise–the gates of Hell–neither ABC nor CNN–the gates of Hell–neither Hannity nor O’Reilly–the gates of Hell–neither Time, Time magazine, Chicago Sun Times, Chicago Tribune … the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. Nothing will be impossible with God.”
At the 11 a.m. service, Wright belittled “baby milk believers,” who, he said, suffer a delusion that politics don’t belong in the pulpit. He pointed out that “Luke the evangelist, not Wright the radical” lambasted the oppressive policies of the Roman government in the Gospel story that recounts Jesus’ life.
“Any preacher who dares to point out the simple ugly facts found in every field imaginable is demonized as volatile, controversial, incendiary, inflammatory, anti-American and radical,” Wright said, taking time out to note the thousands of Japanese civilians who died 67 years to the day when American warplane dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. (Actually, Dec. 7 marks the day when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.)
This guy is constantly stirring up controversy. Although I like stirring up controversy, sometimes you need to know your place. At this stage, I think he wants the attention more than trying to be an ambassador to help this country with his new found fame. He needs to just shut the hell up.
If you needed any more proof that liberal media members don’t give a damn about the state of the economy or the American people, and instead just want to raise taxes, you got it Sunday when Tom Brokaw advocated gas prices, which have plummeted recently, be kept at $4 a gallon with government keeping the added cost.
Coming just two days after it was announced that America lost over 500,000 jobs in November, Brokaw, in what could be his last performance as “Meet the Press” host, actually asked Barack Obama why taxes shouldn’t be dramatically raised on gasoline with revenues to be spent on alternative energy, and to send a signal that folks won’t be able to “just fill up [their] tank for 20 bucks anymore.”
Here’s what Brokaw said:
Let’s talk for a moment about consumer responsibility when it comes to the auto industries. As soon as gas prices dropped, consumers moved back to the larger cars once again. The SUVs are the big gas consumers. Why not take this opportunity to put a tax on gasoline, bump it back up to $4 a gallon where people were prepared to pay for that, and use that revenue for alternative energy and as a signal to the consumers: “Those days are gone. We’re not going to have gasoline that you could just fill up your tank for 20 bucks anymore.”
Seems to me like he doesn’t care about us little people. I actually have much respect for Tom Brokaw, but he crossed the line on this one. I don’t think he understands how much of an impact $4 gas is on the lower class. Most of us can’t even afford to ride around in big SUVs anyway. He needs to get a grip.
