Player haters at it again

With all the e-mail I get, I have figured out that you can tell a lot by what people send you. An acquaintance that I once had high regards for has made it her job to send me negative things about President Obama. The latest being the cost of his date night with his wife.

This e-mail outlined the cost of his security force, before during and after the date. It also detailed the cost of everything else. Yes it was high priced but I have this question. Don’t we have to pay for protecting the President and the first lady whether their name is Ford, Regan, Bush, or yes Obama? If its date night or a speech with leaders of other countries, they still need to be protected. Think something can’t happen. President Lincoln just wanted a night out at the theater with his wife and was assassinated!

These people who have so much time to count the money needed to keep the president safe should take time to join some groups that work toward making the country safe from people who make the need for all this security necessary.

Player haters take a break. Your noise is getting sickening!

You are under arrest

I have written about the wrongdoing of those people in uniform that are supposed to protect and serve us, the citizens that pay their salaries. Lately they have not looked like people of character or people with professional ethics.

The latest case is beyond stupid. World Renowned African American Professor, Henry Louis Gates Jr. or Harvard, had, like we all have done at one time or another, locked himself out of his house. So he jimmied his locks to get in. An observant neighbor called the police. No problem there. The police came and found Gates was already in his house. Gates showed them his identification and that this was indeed his home. He was arrested for disorderly conduct. WHAT??

The charges were later dropped. DUH! But what does this say about the fools that arrested this man? The kicker is the cop said there will be “No apology coming from me.” Someone should have told him before he spoke that Professor Gates is a personal friend of Who? The top man in the country, President Obama!

The president called this incident “stupid” when he heard about it and also brought up the fact that there might have been a little racial profiling going on.

I’ll wait to see if there might be a turn around in this cops attitude. I think some of these people need to come to San Diego and ride along with my friend Dlyn, a female San Diego Police Officer and get some sensitivity lesson on how to treat people of all skin hues!

Thanks again Officer Dlynn for your great service.

Racism Thriving in America

If it wasn’t so sad I would laugh at those poor whites who think racism is a buried issue. The latest attacks on the Obama kids come from the pages of the conservative Free Republic blog. They attacked the children of the Obama with such venom and hate it seems like the 1940’s when Blacks were hung in trees like Xmas ornaments!

There were slurs calling the girls “ ghetto whores “, “thugs“, and asked such questions as when would these girls have their “first abortions.”

The children come from parents who obviously love them and their relationship is to be envied by most people. The Obama’s level of education can’t be held up to scrutiny and only be respected. What makes their children “street thugs?” What makes them so unacceptable other than the color of their skin? Both of these people are class acts and their children are a reflection of their parents.

Why isn’t some of this hate and nasty remarks thrown at the Palins? Here is a family that has an unwed mother right up front. Was she called a whore? NO! She is white and that makes her a class act? NO! Her mother was hoping to be vice president. Her lack of knowledge showed on the campaign trail when she was asked about the world geography. Ask Michelle or Barack those questions. I can guarantee you that they will be able to answer them!

Black is nothing more than a skin color. Judge the man by his work. Leave the children alone. Hate and bigotry is wrong.

Love at its highest level

It does not matter if you are Black or White or the many shades in between, you must be able to look at the face of true love and appreciate it. The latest photo of the first couple taking a quiet walk on the White House lawn, after date night, with the secret service was at a discreet distance, showed to the nation that these two people have more going for them than being the most powerful couple in the world.

As a romantic at heart, my heart swells with pride every time I see them together. It is very apparent to anyone looking at them that they love and respect each other. I hope that every young girl will take from this that to settle for anything else is foolish. And
every young man should look at this powerful man and know that you lose nothing by letting the world know that the female you love and respect does not weaken you but makes you a complete person.

Love is powerful and it is worth more than anything money can buy. Look at our first couple and you can see what has been missing in other couples since Ronald and Nancy Reagan or John and Jackie Kennedy, Love not thirst for power or just following your man.

Romance is in the White House and it’s a beautiful thing!
