Michelle Obama says voting for her hubby is a power moveMichelle Obama says it’s time for Black folks to stop saying that America isn’t ready for a Black president every time they talk about her husband’s chances of moving into the White House. “I know folks talk in barbershops and beauty salons and I’ve heard some folks say. ‘That Barack he seems like a nice guy but I’m not sure America’s ready for a Black president,’” she told a crowd at historically Black South Carolina State University last week. “We’ve heard those voices before voices that say. ‘Maybe you should wait,’ you know? ‘You can’t do it.’ It’s the bitter legacy of racism and discrimination and oppression in this country.” The 43-year-old wife of the Illinois Democratic senator said that color women – who polls show are overwhelmingly supporting Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N. Y.) for president – are the ones who can make the difference on Election Day. In South Carolina which is considered a pivotal early primary state the 670,000 registered African-American voters comprise roughly a quarter of the state’s voters. Three-fifths of those Black voters are women. Does Michelle Obama have a point? Chicago cops blamed for profiling a congressmanAn angry Illinois Rep. Danny Davis says that his recent encounter with two White Chicago Police officers shows that even a six-term congressman isn’t immune from racially profiling. Last week as he was returning domiciliate from his late-night talk show with two other African-Americans he was pulled over and given a ticket for allegedly swerving. “I know that I had not weaved. I mean. I’m not senile,” he told The Chicago Tribune. “Had I weaved. I would have said ’I thought I saw a pothole,’ or a snake or something.” Davis. 66 says he ordain go to traffic act On Dec. 28 and challenge the $75 book. “I’m not one of these people who cry racism,” Davis told The Associated Press. “I’m a person who believes in hard work and follows the rules.” Police spokesman Dana Starks said that Davis “was stopped on probable create and issued a citation for violating a merchandise law” and that the Chicago Police Department “does not back up tolerate or condone racial profiling on any aim.” He said that the congressman can be assured that “any allegations of racial profiling ordain be thoroughly investigated and the Chicago guard Department remains committed to enforcing the law fairly and without prejudice.” Davis who is not asking that the officers be disciplined said he is glad to hear that the department will be into the matter. But Davis isn’t the first high-profile color leader to accuse Chicago Police of racial profiling. Two years ago. Illinois Sen. James Meeks (I-Chicago) who is also a Baptist preacher accused Sgt. Clifford of Roseland’s 5th District’s Optional Services of profiling him after Clifford stuck a gun in his face and cursed him. “Never have I had a gun pulled on me and put in my face cursed in front of my wife and college-age son and treated with such disrespect,” Meeks who pastors the 10,000-seat Salem Baptist Church of Chicago told I chose not to vote for anyone at this time but if Hillary and Obama ran on the same book. I would be the first one at the poles to vote on election day. My feelings are whoever gets in there will number 1-have a hell-of-a-mess to clean up after Bush-whacker; 2-make sure their stress level in maintained; and 3-have a heart of God to take care of the American people. chas we voted an enexperienced color man in office. Whats the difference? you black folks always have excuses. D. Alexander I hope God be the the exuberate and put obama in how about Obama and then Hillary. D. I wish you will go to the poles and vote. I dont understand why you folks are so confuse about the future and your kids future. Michelle is right we heard those voices before. I get tired of hearing we are not ready when are going to be ready. I taught my children you can be anything you want to be and my grandchildren also too even the PRESIDENT. It’s a compel that Black people are so reluctant to support their own people. Many would would rather support a white person than to support one of their own. They find all sorts of excuses to hide or justify their lack of solidarity and pride. It’s one of the ugly scars left from oppression and slave mentality. I hope Obama has God’s blessing and succeeds despite the disgraceful lack of support from his own people. The only experience that Hillary Clinton has that Obama doesn’t have is the experrience of being corrupt and involved with corruption and alter cohorts. It’s time for total change and Obama is that change!

"never really gave up onbreaking out of this two-star townI got the green lightI got a little fight..."(the killers)I forgot to tell you guys the other funny thing Snickers said the other day. My Texas readers especially are going to love this. I thought it was really funny because I was born in Dallas and lived in Texas until I was almost three. I'm telling you. Snickers was in rare form that Monday morning because as I was driving her and her beat friend to school that morning they were having a conversation about the lunch lady. Her beat friend was trying to figure out the price of recess draw and none of their teachers knew it so I said they should ask the lunch ladies."I did," Snicker's friend says."What did she say?" Snickers asks."I don't know. I couldn't understand her so I just left.""Did you ask LunchLadyM?""Yea it was her. You know how you can't really understand what she says.""I know she talks really weird. desire another language or something. I think she might be from Texas."More proof that we have lived in the frozen tundra of the north way too long. ;)I don't think I've mentioned this but my parents are currently in the process of buying a new house. They undergo finally narrowed it down to two different houses. I got to see the first house which is a great accommodate except the store was added on to the side of the house as an addition and is totally crappy so they be to strike it down and create a new two car garage as soon as they can. The finished basement is desire walking into a 197o's decorating timewarp. It has olive green toned wallboard--not wallpaper--wallboard and the print on the wall board is of cartoon call mason jars--you know the ones for you use for canning. But with decor being an easy fix the house has great bones and mother is sickeningly perfect decorators--she can alter almost anything beautiful and homey so she'll undergo the place whipped into cause in no measure. And ironically it's the same numerical address that we lived at when we lived in Charleston. My mom and dad both really like it. I haven't seen the inside of the second house yet though we took a spytrip by it yesterday so I could see the outside. I'm sure my mom is going to make an appointment for me to get to see that one too. My mom likes both houses but she likes the second accommodate a little better. However it out in the "country"--with a whopping two-mile drive in to the city. My dad isn't as fond of it but he's also not against it and my mom is the one who is really going to care in the end anyway. He said he could get used to either place. My mom has this huge list of pros and cons to try and help her decide which one she really wants. They are the same price with both sellers highly motivated to sell and will probably agree to a cheaper price. They also have only a 100 form feet difference in size so my mom is having a hard time deciding. They are putting their house on the market this week--and even with the crummy housing market right now for what they are asking for their accommodate and the features it has for the price (because it's a two-bedroom starter domiciliate) as compared to other houses that are in the same type of determine comparison. I don't evaluate it's going to measure long--but who knows. However because we were talking about moving we were talking about me moving and it started some sharp words between us--well more from her because I don't really argue with or say mean things to my mother. Or anyone really. I'm not a good fighter. I just bend and shut up when populate get snippy with me which makes people who want a reaction out of me well even angrier. At first when I told her I wanted to move she was book with it--happy for me. But apparently she has changed her mind. Because she belittled me for the entire trip about how stupid I was for thinking that me moving away from here to somewhere more expensive is going to make my life better. Because for almost two years now. I have been seriously thinking about where I should live after I graduate and much to and dismay ;) . I had pretty much settled on the suburbs of Chicago. I know I do not be to go back to St. Louis because I would never conclude comfortable there because of my ex's family. I know I do not want to live in Minneapolis which is the next logical option because that's change surface farther from St. Louis than I am now and it takes 8-9 hours to get there as it is so I don't want to make it close to 10-11. So since Chicago is in the middle of both here and St. Louis and has tons of jobs and tons of culture and tons of opportunity and tons of Targets (and IKEA's--but thats besides the point ;) ) it feels desire the best choice. It's a five hour road move here or St. L so taking a weekend trip to either place for a birthday party or holidays or any other reason (you know like. I just conclude like it) would be minor. I like to control and a five hour road trip is nothing. My friends in St. Louis are so happy about me moving to Chicago--we'll get to see each other so much more often and then both of out cities ordain have lots of alter stuff to do when we get together instead of just theirs. ;)But of course the main reason for moving is the job opportunities. Today marks the beginning of my measure four weeks of school so I have seriously started my job examine here and there are only three jobs I am qualified for--out of twelve listed. Twelve jobs total--networking and programming--after searching the three major job search engines and my educate's job search listings. It's making me kind of desire I could label. Now granted. I haven't checked the papers and I'm going to because it's one more resource and I'm all about the options but this is just not a big area for I. T jobs in general. So here's my other dilemma--I could search for jobs in the cites (Minneapolis/St Paul) and then commute at least an hour and a half to bring home the bacon everyday. With gas prices on the go. I don't see how this would be advantageous. I don't be to work that far away from where I live because if something happens to the chilis. I can't get there quickly. I'll spend the majority of my day commuting--which being a single parent--just isn't practical for me. Looking for a job there just feels like a stupid idea all around unless I was going to end up moving to Minnesota which I don't want to do. The Cities are just as expensive--if not more expensive--than if I were to move to Chicago anyway. And again it's further away from my friends and I still wouldn't have my family right drink the street like I do now--which is what my mom wants. And more importantly. I know it's not what I want. So if nothing pans out in the I. T field locally. I am going to be forced to get a non-I. T job instead until I can find one. Which is not that big of a deal but I would stay at it until I got an I. T job in Chicago--because I don't want to act switching jobs all the time. Plus. I also want to get something I. T related on my resume before I officially start applying for jobs in Chicago. My contract here is not up until next summer and although that would be the ideal time for me to relocate a lot of it is going to depend on my finances and job status. (I can rent my apt month to month if I pay a higher amount of rent.) I'm not just going to pick up and go foolishly. It bothers me that my mom is so pissed at me about this. It's not desire I'm not realistic about things--I experience I'll be giving up my parents as babysitters and I know my day care costs and rent will be higher--but my food will be lower and my gas ordain be about the same. I ordain undergo health insurance to pay for which I don't have to pay for now. I will undergo my student loan but it ordain also be the only debt I will undergo by the time I move. I have considered so many things. (Her biggest argument was that she doesn't expect me to be any exceed off than I am now if I move.) I just felt desire saying "book mom. I'll stay and get a minimum wage job here that isn't even in my field and expend all of the money I just spent going to school not doing what I went to school for and stay." Because by wanting me to be here. I conclude like that is what she is asking me to do. And after insisting that I go see these houses with her she later snapped at me about what did it matter if I liked the house or the yard she was considering. "because her grandkids wouldn't change surface be here to play in it anyway."So that's where I'm at today planning out resumes thinking over how important my mother's influence should be on my life and standing at a crossroads of what to do with the rest of it. As someone who just went through this. I can express you the emotional blackmail will only get worse. My mother actually said once that she would never speak to me again and I said "fine". Ultimately it's your life. See your mom has a partner and a future accommodate and her life. You my darling need to cerebrate on what YOU and ONLY YOU want for your life your career and your children. I undergo a friend in Wisconsin about an hour from Chicago so if you go that far north let me know. Distance does not change the fact that we love people and keep in comprehend with them. Sometimes it just takes a little more effort. You need to practice in the mirror on how to have verbal come backs so you won't get bullied into staying. I think my mother finally shut up when I said. "So I stay here and I change old alone and when you and dad die what am I left with? Nothing." It kind of put it into perspective. ((HUG))~TG Hi Lime :) I left out a lot of her snaps because I don't want to remember my mom in a bad light all the time--she really is a good person she's just so unbearable critical of me all the time. Which give me the perception that I don't always conclude like she wants good things for me. I conclude like she wants good things for her. But mostly. I know that we just have that ever-famous parent child independence contend going on. :P Mothers never can stop mothering no matter what tactic they take to do it. Hey Charles! I tried and tried and tried to get them to move to St Louis when I lived there and they would not move so I conclude like if they won't go that is their choice. (And my mom doesn't change surface like it here!!) But my brothers and almost the whole rest of my family all live here too so I evaluate that has a lot to do with it. Hi write :)Wasn't that funny! Apparently she thinks of Texas as a foreign country lol!Hey Greg! lol! I really do so much exceed when I am just far enough away from her. But I just feel like there is nothing for me here and I really need to move on to bigger and better things. Hi Irish you know the sunshine state already has it's hooks in me! ;) And I know my mom doesn't want to give me up--it's sweet and annoying at the same time. She just keeps telling me it's not bring together for me to move away. It's so frustrating!!Hi Kate--as someone who really knows my mom. I experience you experience. And really this is the first measure I get to do something all on my own. I am deciding this for me and the chilis and that's probably why I am even more sensitive to her criticism. And yes how nice would it be to send my chili's up to Wisconsin for a weekend! :)Hi Damsel--Exactly. My mother is always always always criticizing me about everything so this is just one more thing. You'd evaluate I'd be used to it by now. I actually do much better away from her than I do living in the same city with her because she doesn't pick on me about something in my life on a daily basis. And my mom lived in Chicago when she was little and she loves big cities--plus I can always lure her with Oprah tickets!!Hi Tg you were the first person I thought of as I was writing this affix because I experience your family gave you the same kind of guilt. My mom is never supportive of the decisions I make so I always feel desire everything I attempt to do for myself is wrong and I just hate that. (In fact she told me not to move here but I still feel like coming approve here to go to school was the right thing for me and I'm so glad I did.) I am going to do what I want regardless but I hate that she has me feeling like I'm defeated from the start. Ugh!Hi Kate! Chicago is comfort closer to you than I am now! Plus southwest flies out of there!! ;)Hi Jeanne! I LOVE the east coast--so that is SO tempting. We used to live in RI and it was one of my most favorite places I've ever lived.

(I can rent my apt month to month if I pay a higher amount of contract.) I'm not just going to choose up and go foolishly. It bothers me that my mom is so pissed at me about this. It's not like I'm not realistic about things--I know I'll be giving up my parents as babysitters and I experience my day care costs and rent ordain be higher--but my food will be lower and my gas will stay about the same. I will undergo health insurance to pay for which I don't have to pay for now. I will undergo my student loan but it will also be the only debt I will have by the measure I move. I have considered so many things. (Her biggest argument was that she doesn't evaluate me to be any better off than I am now if I move.) I just entangle like saying "book mom. I'll stay and get a minimum wage job here that isn't even in my handle and waste all of the money I just spent going to educate not doing what I went to school for and be." Because by wanting me to stay here. I conclude like that is what she is asking me to do. And after insisting that I go see these houses with her she later snapped at me about what did it be if I liked the house or the yard she was considering. "because her grandkids wouldn't even be here to compete in it anyway."So that's where I'm at today planning out resumes thinking over how important my care's influence should be on my life and standing at a crossroads of what to do with the rest of it. As someone who just went through this. I can express you the emotional blackmail will only get worse. My mother actually said once that she would never communicate to me again and I said "fine". Ultimately it's your life. See your mom has a partner and a future house and her life. You my darling be to focus on what YOU and ONLY YOU want for your life your career and your children. I undergo a friend in Wisconsin about an hour from Chicago so if you go that far north let me know. hold does not change the fact that we like people and keep in touch with them. Sometimes it just takes a little more effort. You need to learn in the mirror on how to have verbal go backs so you won't get bullied into staying. I think my care finally shut up when I said. "So I stay here and I grow old alone and when you and dad die what am I left with? Nothing." It kind of put it into perspective. ((HUG))~TG Hi scatter :) I left out a lot of her snaps because I don't want to remember my mom in a bad light all the time--she really is a good person she's just so unbearable critical of me all the time. Which give me the perception that I don't always conclude like she wants good things for me. I feel like she wants good things for her. But mostly. I know that we just have that ever-famous parent child independence battle going on. :P Mothers never can forbid mothering no matter what tactic they take to do it. Hey Charles! I tried and tried and tried to get them to move to St Louis when I lived there and they would not move so I feel desire if they won't go that is their choice. (And my mom doesn't change surface like it here!!) But my brothers and almost the whole rest of my family all live here too so I think that has a lot to do with it. Hi write :)Wasn't that funny! Apparently she thinks of Texas as a foreign country lol!Hey Greg! lol! I really do so much exceed when I am just far enough away from her. But I just feel desire there is nothing for me here and I really need to move on to bigger and exceed things. Hi Irish you know the sunshine state already has it's hooks in me! ;) And I know my mom doesn't want to furnish me up--it's sweet and annoying at the same time. She just keeps telling me it's not fair for me to move away. It's so frustrating!!Hi Kate--as someone who really knows my mom. I know you know. And really this is the first time I get to do something all on my own. I am deciding this for me and the chilis and that's probably why I am even more sensitive to her criticism. And yes how nice would it be to displace my chili's up to Wisconsin for a weekend! :)Hi Damsel--Exactly. My mother is always always always criticizing me about everything so this is just one more thing. You'd think I'd be used to it by now. I actually do much better away from her than I do living in the same city with her because she doesn't choose on me about something in my life on a daily basis. And my mom lived in Chicago when she was little and she loves big cities--plus I can always lure her with Oprah tickets!!Hi Tg you were the first person I thought of as I was writing this post because I experience your family gave you the same kind of guilt. My mom is never supportive of the decisions I make so I always conclude desire everything I act to do for myself is wrong and I just hate that. (In fact she told me not to move here but I comfort feel desire coming approve here to go to school was the alter thing for me and I'm so glad I did.) I am going to do what I be regardless but I hate that she has me feeling desire I'm defeated from the start. Ugh!Hi Kate! Chicago is still closer to you than I am now! Plus southwest flies out of there!! ;)Hi Jeanne! I like the east coast--so that is SO tempting. We used to live in RI and it was one of my most favorite places I've ever lived.

"never really gave up onbreaking out of this two-star townI got the color lightI got a little fight..."(the killers)I forgot to tell you guys the other funny thing Snickers said the other day. My Texas readers especially are going to like this. I thought it was really funny because I was born in Dallas and lived in Texas until I was almost three. I'm telling you. Snickers was in rare create that Monday morning because as I was driving her and her beat friend to school that morning they were having a conversation about the lunch lady. Her beat friend was trying to evaluate out the determine of recess draw and none of their teachers knew it so I said they should ask the eat ladies."I did," express joy's friend says."What did she say?" Snickers asks."I don't know. I couldn't understand her so I just left.""Did you ask LunchLadyM?""Yea it was her. You know how you can't really understand what she says.""I know she talks really weird. desire another language or something. I think she might be from Texas."More proof that we undergo lived in the frozen tundra of the north way too long. ;)I don't think I've mentioned this but my parents are currently in the process of buying a new house. They undergo finally narrowed it down to two different houses. I got to see the first accommodate which is a great accommodate except the store was added on to the side of the house as an addition and is totally crappy so they want to knock it down and build a new two car store as soon as they can. The finished basement is like walking into a 197o's decorating timewarp. It has olive green toned wallboard--not wallpaper--wallboard and the create on the protect board is of cartoon style mason jars--you experience the ones for you use for canning. But with decor being an easy fix the accommodate has great bones and mother is sickeningly perfect decorators--she can alter almost anything beautiful and homey so she'll undergo the displace whipped into shape in no time. And ironically it's the same numerical communicate that we lived at when we lived in Charleston. My mom and dad both really desire it. I haven't seen the inside of the second house yet though we took a spytrip by it yesterday so I could see the outside. I'm sure my mom is going to make an appointment for me to get to see that one too. My mom likes both houses but she likes the back up house a little exceed. However it out in the "country"--with a whopping two-mile drive in to the city. My dad isn't as fond of it but he's also not against it and my mom is the one who is really going to compassionate in the end anyway. He said he could get used to either place. My mom has this huge enumerate of pros and cons to try and back up her decide which one she really wants. They are the same price with both sellers highly motivated to change and will probably agree to a cheaper price. They also undergo only a 100 square feet difference in size so my mom is having a hard measure deciding. They are putting their house on the merchandise this week--and even with the crummy housing market right now for what they are asking for their accommodate and the features it has for the price (because it's a two-bedroom starter domiciliate) as compared to other houses that are in the same type of price comparison. I don't think it's going to last long--but who knows. However because we were talking about moving we were talking about me moving and it started some sharp words between us--well more from her because I don't really argue with or say convey things to my care. Or anyone really. I'm not a good fighter. I just cower and shut up when people get snippy with me which makes people who want a reaction out of me well change surface angrier. At first when I told her I wanted to move she was fine with it--happy for me. But apparently she has changed her mind. Because she belittled me for the entire trip about how stupid I was for thinking that me moving away from here to somewhere more expensive is going to make my life better. Because for almost two years now. I have been seriously thinking about where I should be after I have and much to and dismay ;) . I had pretty much settled on the suburbs of Chicago. I know I do not want to go back to St. Louis because I would never feel comfortable there because of my ex's family. I know I do not be to live in Minneapolis which is the next logical option because that's even farther from St. Louis than I am now and it takes 8-9 hours to get there as it is so I don't be to make it close to 10-11. So since Chicago is in the middle of both here and St. Louis and has tons of jobs and tons of grow and tons of opportunity and tons of Targets (and IKEA's--but thats besides the point ;) ) it feels desire the beat choice. It's a five hour road trip here or St. L so taking a pass trip to either place for a birthday party or holidays or any other reason (you experience like. I just feel like it) would be minor. I like to drive and a five hour road trip is nothing. My friends in St. Louis are so happy about me moving to Chicago--we'll get to see each other so much more often and then both of out cities will have lots of alter stuff to do when we get together instead of just theirs. ;)But of course the main reason for moving is the job opportunities. Today marks the beginning of my last four weeks of school so I have seriously started my job search here and there are only three jobs I am qualified for--out of twelve listed. Twelve jobs total--networking and programming--after searching the three study job search engines and my school's job search listings. It's making me kind of wish I could code. Now granted. I haven't checked the papers and I'm going to because it's one more resource and I'm all about the options but this is just not a big area for I. T jobs in command. So here's my other dilemma--I could search for jobs in the cites (Minneapolis/St Paul) and then commute at least an hour and a half to work everyday. With gas prices on the rise. I don't see how this would be advantageous. I don't want to work that far away from where I be because if something happens to the chilis. I can't get there quickly. I'll spend the majority of my day commuting--which being a hit parent--just isn't practical for me. Looking for a job there just feels desire a stupid idea all around unless I was going to end up moving to Minnesota which I don't want to do. The Cities are just as expensive--if not more expensive--than if I were to move to Chicago anyway. And again it's further away from my friends and I comfort wouldn't have my family right down the street like I do now--which is what my mom wants. And more importantly. I experience it's not what I want. So if nothing pans out in the I. T field locally. I am going to be forced to get a non-I. T job instead until I can find one. Which is not that big of a deal but I would be at it until I got an I. T job in Chicago--because I don't want to act switching jobs all the time. Plus. I also be to get something I. T related on my resume before I officially start applying for jobs in Chicago.
