Random Things

Well since I can talk about anything that I want to this week...I will talk about the super bowl and the RNC foolishness.

1. The Super Bowl-I think the Super Bowl was cheated. While I do not like neither Arizona or the Steelers, one with common since could see the tricks being pulled out the ref's hat to help Pittsburgh win the Super Bowl. (Hey, it's just my opinion). I really do think that there is a master plan/list on who's going to win the Super Bowl in what year...lol...i really do.

2. Republican Party names Micheal Steele as chairman-Now while I am glad to see advancement within minority groups in American politics, this appointment is nearly a desperate stunt for the GOP to (1) split African-American voters between the two parties to weaken the group's political clout, (2) to steal the significance of the Obama administration, and (3) to attempt to look diverse in preparation for the 2010 and 2012 elections. Not since Abe Lincoln has the Republican Party did anything that would help minorities, women, or the middle or lower class citizenry. Independents along with the groups that I just mention should not fall for this debauchery and facade.

Republicans still do not care about these groups. For example, South Carolina's finest (sarcastically used) Governor Mark Sanford was almost willing to let people starve and be kicked out of their homes when he waited until the last minute to apply for more money for unemployment benefits. Did he cared about those who lost their jobs and who needed the help..NO! Of course not. He just did not want to look like he was agreeing with the Obama agenda. And let's not forget about our dear old senator Jim DeMint, who was one of the only two senators that voted against the confirmation of now Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Even Senator Lindsey Graham (who serves on the Armed Forces Committee voted for her! Gasp!) So what does this tell people...Republicans only care about the rich and the corporate circles...

but hey...that's only my opinion too.
