Today is an historical moment for the nation. I cannot say just for me or my family, although I will be celebrating with 4 generations tonight, I cannot begin to describe the series of emotions flowing through me. I have always voted from the time I turned 18 to now...and I have to say that this is the most defining moment in my life! I watched as my my mother and father, both in their 70's vote...my mother with tears in her eyes and to be honest, my father got mistyeyed as well...it was amazing to see the number of African American's standing in line today...A LINE!!! I have never stood in a line to vote ever, and this morning I stood in line for an hour, which I know isn't long compared to some areas, but for our area here, which is traditionally a RED county although Maryland is a blue state, I was amazed and elated. My heart soared seeing these people standing in line...neighbors talking, and strangers embracing one another all of us with this look of hope and a burning...

When it comes to shrewdness, manipulation, and political moves, the GOP & the Republican Party wins it hands down! As much as I abhor having to give them credit for anything…I have to give them credit for always being able to pull a rabbit out of their hats and convince the dumb, stupid, ignorant and uninformed American that you can do/be whatever you want so long as you lie, cheat, and steal to do it… because “hey…its okay!” I mean after all, the United States of America was founded by lying, stealing, cheating, and pillaging the first settlers, so why would it not be okay for this mindset to continue hundreds of years late? On Wednesday, Senator John McCain, the Presidential Candidate representing the Republican party took part in what many are calling Karl Rovian tactics. His rash decision to suspend his Presidential campaign is nothing more than political gaming at its best. Why is it, that people do not see it for what this is…his numbers were slipping in the poles and he need...

I received this from a good friend of mine, a future leader and philosopher of LIFE...please read and leave your comments...tune into WSER Sassy Entertainment Radio on Thursday, Sept. 25th @ 9PM EST...you can subscribe to the show by clicking on the RSS tab above... Greetings Friends and Family, These days it seems that the word "change" is continuosly being used in catch phrases. The question is, what is it that is going to bring about true change. Change is something that starts in the individual. It is something that must come from the inside and then work itself out. Each and everyone of us has something that we can do to bring about change in our surroundings and our daily lives. If we wait on "a leader" or one individual to bring about changes on our behalf , it is not going to happen. Everyone makes a difference, every little bit helps, and that's where working as a colliective and unity plays its part. We must begin to think for ourselves and pay attenti...

I know that this is a forum for love and relationships, but as a certified Obamacan when I received this email from a friend I just had to ask him if he would consider it for my blog. He said yes...so I introduce to you Guest Blogger YALE T. BEVERLY... _________________________ Good afternoon friends, Look, I am tired of all of this rhetoric around the election and comparing Sarah Palin to candidate Obama!! America is being fooled and hood winked and it is insulting to me and anyone who is free thinking and intelligent. Stop being led to the slaughter!! Here are straight facts, without preaching or embellishment. You can check them yourselves if you have a mind to find the “truth” and deal with the consequences!! Sarah Palin, by many accounts is a fair and decent governor for the state of Alaska; but she has only held office for less than 2 years. Comparing Palin to Obama is ridiculous, she is UP FOR Vice President, he is RUNNING for and has been nominated to be, President. She has...

I don't think its a secret that I have been a fan of Senator Barack Obama since he spoke at the DNC in 2004...since then I have been following his career...and it is my hope that he receives the nomination for President. That is why it still bothers me when I hear that blacks are divided in their decision between Obama & Clinton. So when I received this in an email, and although I did not write this piece below, I was compelled to share it...enjoy! When Black is Enough Please, make me a believer! I must confess, I feel that in being a Barack Obama supporter I have missed something or as the media portrays…I have missed everything the Clinton's have done for me, a black woman in America. Since I am truly a socialite at heart who hates to miss an event, let alone a decade of the African-American migration to a better life; please can someone?...Anyone? Tell me what exactly the Clinton's have done for black people that has made our loyalty so steadfast and unwavering! Or a...
