Quick Hits

SHITTING BULL

It was all a dream. Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Horace Grant, John Paxson, the Grant Park celebrations - all of it a beautiful dream. The reality of our new sports landscape in Chicago is that the Chicago Bulls are ABSOLUTELY FINISHED. In my opinion this season has been doomed from the moment King Kobe decided that he didn't want to be here (if the Bulls traded half the team away) and when Joakim Noah became the fall guy for this group of underachieving ballers. If you think for one friggin minute that I am gonna keep watching this season spiral out of control...you are CORRECT! I love it and am curious to see if anything else can happen. Bulls GM John Paxson has lost all control of the good ship Reinsdorf and everybody likes watching train wrecks. That is called human nature and the saddest part of it all is that there is at least five months to go. Good googly moogly.


I WANT MY OWN TV

Oprah has truly outdone herself this time and I love her. In a deal struck with the Discovery channel, Oprah is taking over the Discovery Health channel and turning it into the Oprah Winfrey Network OWN-TV. What do we have to look forward to...who knows? I just hope it's more Oprah. Hours and hours of Oprah. I would like to see Oprah cooking and running and in Africa at the school she created and Oprah in her garden and Oprah Oprah OOOOOOPPPPPPPPPRRRRRRAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Congrats beautiful and I promise never to bring up Chicago Celebrations and how dynamic a pyramid scheme that was. I Love You Oprah - mwaaaaaaaah!

O watch.


OJ CAN YOU SEE

Hands down the dumbest man on PLANET EARTH.

Aw HELL Naw



I'll expound on this topic later but you really must be in a slow news cycle when this is news...great googly moogly.

Click here and stop me if you've heard this before.

The Battle For the Souls of Black Folks


Racial Tension. I have always heard about this "racial tension" but I must admit this is as misplaced as anything i've seen in quite sometime. Racial tension as diagnosed by doctors at the University of Chicago is well...without diagnosis. Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton are among 95 people running for president and more importantly lately they have developed a knack for not discussing ANYTHING aside from each other. To her credit she brought in a heavyweight supporter who is certain to get that beloved black vote to help catapult her into the black agenda - Robert Johnson founder of BET. That is who you want on your team, a bumbler who says things without much thought or clarity. Bowel Johnson has his own history that he wishes he could re-write and sucking Hillary's teat is damn near as good as being there I suppose.

I wonder if HRC really believes that LBJ is the reason Dr. King - that is Martin Luther King who by the way is not some soft character that bowed down to anybody - was successful in his efforts. True you need legislators who agree to find their moral center and pass laws that benefit humanity but the row that was created over the last three days is retarded. How about the real issue - the souls of black folks that is what we are really talking about here.

86% of the United States is Caucasian correct? With that apparent Senator Obama and Senator Clinton aren't fighting for the "white" vote they are battling for the "black" vote. John Edwards is the "king maker" once this soul train gets to the convention because splitting the vote is bad for Hillary and she knows it. Troubling isn't it? If Barack Obama wins the nomination it will be because of John Edwards...not because Hillary cried or has a sexy chick (Huma Abedin) on the side or because her husband is drunk or because she appeals to a certain group of women or Bowel Johnson and his interests - John Edwards holds the key for the Senator from Illinois.

All of this other crap about Dr. King and racism or anything other than the real story, the non-white vote and John Edwards as the key to the Democratic nominee in this election is an insult to the intelligence of voting Americans and an attempt to jack up the emotions of the people.

The crying game, the Obama has no experience game, all of it means nothing. I haven't made my mind up about who I will cast my vote for - but I know who I won't cast my vote for.

READ THIS AND REMEMBER THE FUTURE!

A REALly Bad IDea







In what could potentially be the single worse idea in the history of ideas, "Homeland Insecurity" chief Michael Chertoff is pushing uber hard for the "Real ID". Let's say you have to get a drivers license and you go to your local DMV. When you get in the door they'll take a picture and compare it to pictures of people who were "refused" a drivers license. If your pic and info match then guess what - no drivers license and who knows maybe a trip to Guantanamo...the rest of us will get a standard government issued ID card. Great googly moogly - the man done gon plum loco.

Looks like all of those wacky conspiracy theorists were right again huh? How about this: the US Congress slipped this vote in right around the time the president was all about catching Osama Bin Laden. This "Real ID" is part of the 9/11 bill...the fight terror at all costs bill...the smoke 'em out of their holes bill...the George Bush watched Katrina kill New Orleans bill...you know the rest.

I have an idea, lets call our Senators and members of the House of Representatives and tell them if they don't annihilate the "Real ID" and completely destroy it from becoming a reality, they will never serve in political office again. It's that important and amazingly (no real surprise) none of the "candidates" have addressed it. How did they vote you ask? Results.

Well what do you know...make the phone call and tell your elected official to kill the REALly stupid ID.
