"<br /><br />It's probably the second time I've mentioned Scott Walker, and the Koch brothers, so I guess I have fetish for them as well.<br /><br />But the question isn't my "fetish," but your eagerness to defend Palin. What's with that? Why do you care if I have a "fetish" or not? <br /><br />I don't care who you obsess over. It's none of my business. For that reason, I suspect that you're the one with the "fetish," the drive to defend Palin's reputation from colored men like me.<br /><br />"Whereas Milwaukee has one of the highest rates of Black male unemployment - you all appear to look past the 100% Democrat controlled forces of the city and go after the new Republican governor. <br /><br />"How do you justify your actions other than raw ideological bigotry and partisanship Black Diaspora?"<br /><br />Here's what you wish me to believe: Were it not for "democrats" at all levels of government this country would be that "shining city on a mountain" that all politicians love to emote over.<br /><br />Here's the truth: Politics is corrupt. It doesn't matter the venue, or the party. But it just so happens that Republicans are more corrupt than Democrats. <br /><br />Now when you're ready to uproot corruption at all levels of government, you'll find me a willing a participant. Until that time, I'll go with those who evidences the least corruption.Black Diasporahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08890792781361839105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386976829639042251.post-54144982011889331252011-04-01T14:49:09.433-07:002011-04-01T14:49:09.433-07:00Second article on the BLACK DIASPORA blog.

Don't you? <br /><br />Why is it that you and other Progressive-Fundamentalists are focusing on the "Republican Governors" of Wisconsin but you say nothing about the mass layoffs that happened in Milwaukee, long before Walker took office.<br /><br />With 75% of the Black population of Wisconsin living in Milwaukee - it is quite suspect as to why this selective indictment.<br /><br />The schools of Milwaukee laid off 700 workers. <br />The city almost laid off 1,400 union workers until a last minute agreement.<br /><br />Whereas Milwaukee has one of the highest rates of Black male unemployment - you all appear to look past the 100% Democrat controlled forces of the city and go after the new Republican governor. <br /><br />How do you justify your actions other than raw ideological bigotry and partisanship Black Diaspora?Constructive Feedbackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16688506284767709555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386976829639042251.post-65220208025512992912011-02-28T23:57:13.565-08:002011-02-28T23:57:13.565-08:00Hi, Kathy:

In short, comedians tell you what's true, and make it funny.<br /><br />What a talent!Black Diasporahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08890792781361839105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386976829639042251.post-21577523805282709512011-02-28T16:52:51.817-08:002011-02-28T16:52:51.817-08:00Hey BD, thanks for the Carlin video, loved it.

You're absolutely right the difference between the democrats and republicans is only a difference of degree and even that one is being chipped away at as time goes. Both are disgusting with the Republican party being the absolute worst between the two. It's the ignorance of the people that allows the current situation to continue. I've often thought about how the lack of investment in things like education support the existing political structures. Keeping folks uneducated and at a hand to mouth level of subsistence allows for greater control. All part of the grand plan IMO.<br /><br />We no longer have a democracy when folks like these Koch brothers and others can fund a movement and control the direction of the politics. The politicians are basically for hire and this prank call with Walker is very revealing.Greg Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16130586577590547845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386976829639042251.post-36951824665340279002011-02-24T17:46:49.424-08:002011-02-24T17:46:49.424-08:00Well said, Granny, as is this:

However, "wars and rumors of wars" is not a joke, it's real and so are the other prophecy put forth."<br /><br />And you're right again: What's hidden is coming to the light, and what's being held back is being released.<br /><br />It's not happenstance that the struggle for freedom that we're seeing in the Middle East, and the coming to the light of evil plots, are occurring at the same time.<br /><br />Yes, we will see more of this shining of the light upon wicked deeds: Wikileaks with its disclosures, Gov. Walker and his chicanery, and the general that is using psyops against U.S. Senators.<br /><br />It's not a good time to be using machinations, Machiavellian tactics, or subterfuge to concentrate power, or to line one's pocket with money that's taken from the poor and the middle class, and given to the rich.<br /><br />What's ahead is the worst of times and the best of times.

I missed you.<br /><br />The media has Americans focused in on the revolutions going on in other countries, but they need to be focusing on what is going on here right under their noses. I'm mighty afraid that a revolution is gonna come to this country as well, if Walker gets his way. We living in the last days and the majority of people don't want to recognize that. However, "wars and rumors of wars" is not a joke, it's real and so are the other prophecy put forth. Nevertheless, it even told us that people would not believe, so only thing believers can do is pray.<br /><br />The Koch brothers are some greedy brothers that want to transform American into a feudalism system. They want to be Kings of America and next the world. Lot of dirty money being exchanged in different hands, mostly Republicans, but there are Democrats too. The military hands are not clean either. Generals lying to keep money flowing their way. All of that was hidden is coming out and more soon to come.<br /><br />People's boiling pot runneth over though and it won't be long before the lid pops off and explodes.GrannyStandingforTruthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386976829639042251.post-75331327295264446022011-02-24T02:32:56.250-08:002011-02-24T02:32:56.250-08:00Already Gov.

Walker is downplaying his predicament. <br /><br />He was punk'd good, and we learned first hand what we already suspected: He's in the back pocket of the Koch brothers and is doing their bidding.<br /><br />The Fab-Eleven are onto him, as are the rest of the nation.<br /><br />Walker broke some serious ethics rules, and might become the object of an embarrassing investigation, which might scuttle his alliance with his fellow Republicans to crush state unions.<br /><br />Republican legislators may not be willing now to hold the center and become embroiled in his scandal. <br /><br />While he was plotting, others were plotting against him. <br /><br />Democrats have their faults, but this heartless, cold-hearted effort to bust unions, and the blunder that ensued is vintage Republican.<br /><br />Doesn't all of this remind you of Tricky Dick? And Walker has presidential aspirations, to boot? <br /><br />I don't think he can jettison his dirty laundry fast enough to achieve that lofty goal.<br /><br />Poetic justice of the richest kind.Black Diasporahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08890792781361839105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3386976829639042251.post-22661252689878904902011-02-24T00:31:20.539-08:002011-02-24T00:31:20.539-08:00BD...you probably have seen by now but in a stroke...BD...you probably have seen by now but in a stroke of sheer comedic brilliance, Mr. Walker exposed himself and his whorish subservience to the robber barons for all the world to see. The MSM wants to sweep that prank phone call under the rug as fast as possible! The streets of every state capitol need to come alive like those of Cairo. We must be rid of these corrupt clowns before they steal again.Ernestonoreply@blogger.com
