The whole Pat Robertson "endorsement" of Rudy Giuliani thing made me sick yesterday. Since when does the Christian community need kingmakers any more than the black community needs "civil rights" leaders to tell us what to think or how to vote? The truth is for me personally I have far more in common with the candidate who happens to be a Mormon than I do with the one who claims devout catholicism. I got crushed for requests to give my opinon on the endorsement, but I'd rather be the voice that presents biblical truth and empower you to come to your own conclusions about such things. 800.345.WMCA.

In an ideal world - abstinence programs don't belong in schools - nor do sex-ed programs of any kind. A new study concluded this week: "At present there does not exist any strong evidence that any abstinence program delays the initiation of sex, hastens the return to abstinence or reduces the number of sexual partners" among teenagers, the study concluded. The report, which was based on a review of research into teenager sexual behavior, was being released Wednesday by the nonpartisan National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy." But the failure is coming from only one place. The home! You feel guilty when your 13 year old daughter asks you where you were when you had sex the first time. Teens need to be able to talk to us about this more than anyone else - and yet - we put them in Christian schools, and send them to church, and all the rest and expect them to just "get it." It's the parent's fault that children are having sex! 800.345.WMCA.

3pm:
You learn a lot about a person's character by the way they treat those who can do nothing for them. A presidential candidate for office, well to do, well known, is campaigning through Iowa, stops in a greasy spoon to have lunch. Engages the waitress to get her to tell them her life story. She works two jobs, single mother, very hard life. The waitress comps the lunch, the candidate leaves and goes and makes a speech using the waitress' story. The press come back to interview the waitress. She's dismayed - 'the candidate doesn't understand' - they didn't even leave a tip. I know that I personally in the past have been far too uncaring about those who serve me. My own tipping practices have changed greatly in recent years. But how we treat those who can do nothing for us - reveals how we can impact our world for Jesus Christ in a very powerful way. 800.345.WMCA.

"Somehow, these people that cared about the laundry only cared about the laundry. They didn't care about the children!...I thought they were crazy. I said, 'these people have lost their minds.'"

You've seen the story by now: Jesse Jackson thinks Obama is "WHITEY White!"

Not completely sure what he even means by it but the revelation of the """Rev's""" thoughts on the matter tell us one thing for sure - Hillary outbid 'Bama and paid pretty pennies. Having bought the Jesse machine, Hillary probably feels its safe now to go about ignoring black people - pretty much the way she has her entire life - except when there is a photo-op to be had!

But what intrigues me about the concept that Jesse is attacking Obama with is - what does it really mean?

Does it mean that:
a) Obama "speaks too much like a 'white' man?"
b) Has not impregnated as many females as the "good" """Rev"""?
c) Did not participate in enough gang violence when a young boy?
d) Has never been shot in a drive-by on Chicago's southside?
e) Graduated high school?
f) Has a vocabulary that is larger than "f**k", "b*tch", "h*e", and "n*ggah"?
g) Is STILL married to his first and only wife?
h) Actually spends time in his home, with his kids?
i) Is able to speak intellectually on a wide range of socio-economic-governmental topics?
j) Has not had illicit sexual liasons with under-staffers while visiting the White House counseling other adulterers on their path to "god?"
k) Has spoken in Rick Warren's pulpit?
l) Has put forward an economic plan where the word - tax-cuts, and incentives were used?
m) Didn't kiss the ring of the proclaimed self-serving "civil rights leaders" of our time?
n) Thinks for himself, instead of buying the brainwash of self-appointed """Rev's"""?
o) Doesn't need Jesse, Al, or any other voice to "speak for him?"
p) Actually has a chance at large numbers of both blacks and whites voting for him?
q) Did not offer Rev. Shakedown as much money has Hillary did to attack his opponents?
r) Has not been arrested?
s) Still hasn't spread his spermination beyond his marital vows?
t) Actually has credentials like Editor of the Harvard Law Review?
u) Has a brain that works and is attempting to tri-angulate votes?
v) Has never needed Jesse Jackson for ANYTHING?
w) Can't make second grade rhymes?
x) Never used Jackson's rent-a-mob?
y) Can articulate actual thoughts longer than three sentences?
z) Is more satisfied with his life choices than Jesse has ever dreamed of?

Friends - the list COULD go on...

The point being - and hear me clearly on this - I do NOT support Obama - and WILL NEVER vote for him. But Jesse's knee jerk over Obama not rushing to the aid of six boys and creating the media circus that Jesse has become expert at - does not make Obama "white, black, yellow, red or green."

And who's to say that being something other than black isn't evil anyway?

I've known scummy white people. I've known horrid blacks. I've also known a GREAT number of people from ALL ethnicities that have shown courage, grace, and intelligence.

Maybe Jesse doesn't like the fact that a WHITE WOMAN bought him off and now he's stuck supporting someone he doesn't much care for.

Speaking of which - who is worse: A black man who rises to the top of his community's and society's pinnacle of achievements? Or a black man who sells his soul to spout the talking/attack points of plantation nanny?

We can’t afford to live like we’re living. From school, to clothing to music, to our children—where have our standards gone? And if our own can’t come out and rally for change, who can? Why do we so often condemn the people who point out what’s wrong instead of condemning the behavior?

And I will say again, to all of you who are angry at me for airing our dirty laundry—good I’m glad you’re angry, now maybe collectively, including me, we’ll be forced to finally go wash it. This site is the beginning, the ending is up to us.

"There is a generation of people who don't know how to talk to their kids in a way that doesn't turn them off," Hudlin said. "Now they're complaining because we want to successfully engage them. Instead of complaining, they should take notes."
