The Color Green

                                                    May 30, 2006

      Could Oprah and Ice Cube be gearing up for a squab?  Cube seems upset that Harpo Prod. isn't giving him the proper treatment worthy of a man who has gone from penning, "Don't Fuck with a Bitch From the Projects" to producing and starring in the hit kiddie flick "Are We There Yet?"

      What's next?  The "View" won't book System of a Down to talk Armenian genocide?  Oh the whore  horror.  Maybe Ice Cube or Luda could write an autobiography and then Oprah could put them in the Book Club and still not book 'em on the show.

      I believe I've seen Will Smith aka the Fresh Prince on the Oprah Show.  If I recall correctly he was entertaining, yet boring. No, wait. That was when he was Leno.  I mean TRL.  Or was it Conan the Librarian?

       I don't understand why these guys are so surprised. Aren't they, as someone else said, the highest paid least respected poets in history? 

      I think this is mainly a gift to white TV and radio hosts to go ahead and bag on some rich black folks for awhile. Some more. So now we get the pleasure of hearing some surburban bro doing his best, "No he dedent. I'm fittin to go off now."  The really edgy ones may even use the gunshot sound.

      Should be like a totally funky fresh feud.

I chose this link because the finch's first sentence is so indicative of what I'm taliking about, it could only pass muster in a corporate setting.

      

   

Hate Hate, My My

    September 2, 2005

  Ty Taylor got voted off the stage on the TV show "Rock Star: INXS"  It was cool though. He called us the racist pigs that we are.    

  It's too bad INXS doesn't possess a tenth of the guts that he has.  Then again why should they?  They're trying to relate to the mainstream American audience, a culture that defines "all black" as a room with 30 people in it, 9 of whom are black. 

  The show did have one saving grace. It made me realize that I don't hate all reality shows. I hate the people who watch them.

  Michael Hutchence is choking in his grave.

  and cut: By the way, you'd have to be a fool to think Reuben's fat ass actually beat Clay. "American Idol" had just been using too many Motown songs to have their show associated with bigotry. That show would fix a neutered cat.

  I didn't read the article that inspired these letters, but these letters might (could) inspire you.

Bush Reaches to the Sky

  Rachel Maddow is at it again.  She's got the Flahio kid feeding us that finger food.  What'd we ever do to him?

Rove Wasn't Built in a Day

         July 14, 2005 

Being a Repugnantcan is pretty simple.  The way they're reacting to Karl Rove committing treason offers an excellent exapmle of how they work it.

1. Lie. A lot. Bonus points for being able to feign offense as you're lying.

2. Blame the victim.  Remember Reagan's welfare queen quote?  By the time Rove gets away with setting up Valerie Plame to possibly be killed, the repugnantcans will be characterizing her as a DMV trainee.

3. Actually, if you link to the above you'll get the story in the best possible way I've seen. Please read it.  And Happy Bastille Day.

Tarver To Get Revenge

June 18, 2005

  I believe Antonio Tarver will beat Glen Johnson in tonight's light heavyweight re-match.  Last December Tarver lost a tough and controversial decision in the first fight.  The reader might remember these are the two guys who whupped Roy Jones Jr.

The best bet is to play Tarver in a decision, you bet $100 and get back $155 if it happens. Otherwise risk the $210 to win $100 (a straight bet on Tarver).  Here are all the odds if you want to be entertained.

  I already can't wait for the third fight.

Who Got Next?

               June 9, 2005

    After Michael Jackson is aquitted, Bill Cosby will be musty TV.  But the media, fresh off the personal responsibility controversy, will go after him. And the people making money hating on him, the ones who punk'd him for calling out idiot parents, will look like hypocrites when they have to start defending him.

         

I'm Dave Chappelle, Bitch!

      May 12, 2005

  Somehow the runaway bride and Dave Chappelle seem related.

  But who knew "outdo Martin Lawrence" was on his list of things to do? I suppose he knows he's funnier than those comedians in the late 90's; the ones who got phat deals for singing Beach Boys songs with karate dudes or dressing up like women in order to work somewhere. In my opinion it's the fame, NOT the money, that has him trippin. He had thrived under the cover of obscurity, steadily building his fan base through countless gigs, word of mouth, crappy movies and occasional appearances on the late night scripted shows.

  So it's you that made him go a little cuzookoo.

  You have to love the South Africa part though. Think that won't give him some new material?  Maybe things are so good racially here in the USA that he has nothing funny left to mock us about. He can't be 'Toine in the reparations skit if he's slated to get 50XL. Was Dave Chappelle bought off?  Who owns "Comedy Central"?  Free Dave Chappelle  -  Free Dave Chappelle!

postzkript-  I found this blog during my research. It has all the relevant links.

 

How

               April 12, 2005 

The University of Colorado has the common sense to realize Ward Churchill can not be fired for saying what others won't admit. But in a move that is perhaps even worse, they are forcing him to prove that he is part Native American in order to pursue a plagerism case against him.

  I suggest he throw out the first pitch at a baseball game in Cleveland.

  I think the main message here is similar to the Arie Fleischer's anti American comment after Bill Maher compared the terrorists' courage favorably to US soldiers after Sept. 11...people better watch what they say. 

  It hardly matters what happens to Churchill anymore.  Financially, he can command outrageous speaking fees and get support from the sane were he to lose his job, which doesn't seem likely to happen.

But will the next potential Ward Churchill be intimidated back into his cubicle at "Eichmann and Sons Investments?" Back in the 90's we were chasing Monica Lewinsky's blue dress and now we want to curtail free speech?  The speech is only free if we use it.

  I guess whoever is on the committee to shaft Ward Churchill is probably being called by Colorado governor Bill Owens' punks, threatening funding or whatever if they don't investigate something.

Augusta Wind

  April 7, 2005

  The Massas starts today and it looks like that Burk chick got her butt kicked.

  The arcane body is back to accepting commercials and it appears everything is back to their sexist, racist ways.  Well, not back, of course, but decided.  They thought about it and decided, "No, bunk a ho. We're still pissed we can't call that bathroom attendent 'boy' anymore, no way we let some fish in our club." 

  The thing that makes me see how deep the Massas' contempt for women must be is in how easy it would be to accept women in the club. The pooh poohing argument about there being so many other issues for women to be fighting for, when they could just say, "OK, you're in," is so perfect and demeaning I can almost see why passive benefactors of sexism would go along with it.  What I can't grasp is why they think that the Massa's would ever want someone like them to be a member.

  The five companies that I'm sure claim to value diversity and equality are ExxonMobil, Coca-Cola, Citigroup, IBM and SBC Communications. Somehow Hootie Johnson beat the rap.  If you can't avoid them, at least remind somebody who's all into the Massa's of how their Mama's getting played.
