A Message from the Average Black Person

Why does it seem like u just said stay in your place, do go for the gold, do what u know you can.

Also from what u said, that would mean Rush speaks for all Caucasian people

But that would be a silly and truly ignorant thing on my part if I believed such crap

So why would you or anyone think that Jessie, or rev al, or tavis speaks for all of us whenever they speak,

Our social economic status and day to day concerns are just as diverse as any race or nationality.

I hear what you said on reparations, but they also said We would never have a Black president

And in my life time when I thought our nation could not do it.

IT IS DONE MY FRIEND IN THE WINK OF AN EYE

I BELIEVe EYOUR POST IS DISINGENIOUS

Michael Jackson Death News Cripples Web

What about all the living who help helped and saved and who thru his music as well, healed their soul helped them change by looking the mirror and making it happen?
He was accused and acquitted of those charges, did he ever get convicted
na they just dragged him thru the mud to knock him down a notch.
thing is, the same media that most smart Americans now really realize we cannot trust to tell the truth because they are hooked on sensationalism not truth, is the same media that vilified him and hounded him daily .

Taibbi’s Goldman Sachs Takedown In Rolling Stone: Bank Has ‘Unprecedented Reach And Power’

I am a licensed professional in insurance and investments, so much truth in this article,
one could question some of the historical connections and how this mess ahs happened before, which it r4eally did and has over the decades, think he missed the s n l scandal, maybe GOLDMANSACHS was not part of that but the stripping away at our regulations, definitely was.
There was another bubble/collapse in the 90s, I think is was with commercial paper or something, gotta do sum research,
Btu the guy, it them all IN THE head, and the obvious evil influence of Goldman Such on our government and the world economy cannot be denied.
and to make matters worse……….we still have no re regulated this mess, we have too many GS and other wall street insiders throughout out govt, they are considered the best minds, so they get picked up, they will never turn on Goldman, it ahs made too many of them rich, Paulson and his pet boy should be in jail, and the name Goldman sachs rings like greed incarnate form this day forth
They need a real investigation and a real fine for their mis deeds and corruption
The shame is on the face of our nation
And the ignorance of our elected officials.

When Private Insurers Claim They Can’t Compete Against a Public Health Insurance Option, They Just Make Themselves Look Silly

all i have to say is this, if we donot get healthcare reform and a public option to compete with these for profit entities,
fine I will lobby for congress an dsenate to loose their tax payer paid for coverage
lets make that the next beig darn debate, if none for me none for you pay for your own insurance.
these guys pay like 65.00 per month for their coverage, and a private plan like that would cost 250 per month.
the kicker is they make over a 100 grand per year each n every one.

When Private Insurers Claim They Can’t Compete Against a Public Health Insurance Option, They Just Make Themselves Look Silly

But if they actually provided better service than the competing plan, they would stay in business,
We have been robbed of our money and left to die in hospital waiting rooms, and in the street and have to spend the time we need to fight illness fighting for the coverage we already paid for.
Do u really know anything about European healthcare or u just read talking points.

I have hear d sum good things, the best of which are the personal stories that ended in success instead of bankruptcy, anything to help with that is fine with me.
A friend of mine WAS LAID OFF LAST YEAR FROM HIS JOB AND RIGHT NOW cannot get one as
he has no insurance coverage, he fell and popped his ACL in both knees, had to pay for surgery himself, took him two months to get any near a doctor, he had the surgery
Which will?
Cost him $20,000 , for one knee,
and he is still waiting to see if he can even attempt to get the other one done.
Now he has a $20,000 DOCTORS bill and one repaired knee
IT IS A DARN SHAME THAT THIS IS AN ONLY IN AMERICA STORY
What is wrong with our nation that this is seen as ok as status quo, as good for anyone

Sanford Admits Affair With Woman From Argentina (VIDEO)

I do want him to resign, but not because of the affair, because he disappeared form his job of governor of the State of SC, for 6 days with no contact and no one knew his whereabouts NOT EVEN HIS STAFF. NOT EVEN HIS WIFE
I am sorry but at any job, employer etc, if you are a No call No show fro 48-72 hours, you are considered self terminated.
That is it that is all, no exceptions,
I’m Not even going to go into how he vilified others in this exact situation and called for their resignation from their post of power.
I believe Mr. Sanford should do the honorable thing and resign, for neglect of duties to the detriment of the state he is supposed to represent, which in my humble opinion, he has not represent well at all!
If he is supposed to be the cream of South Carolina, I would rather eat the curd
