HooRaaaaaay For Obama!!!!

I just want to go on record and say that I totally agree with Barack Obama's speech for the NAACP. Bill Cosby said some of the same things recently and people came out and attacked him. Well I am an African American woman and I am proud of them for having enough guts to come out and speak the truth. We all do good to listen up. My people are still trying to use the "white man," as an excuse to stay down. Now I am not saying that we were not treated unfairly in the past, nor and I saying that we are treated as complete equals now. Racism is very much still alive in American. But what I am saying is that that excuse will no longer work. An African American can be just about anything that they want to be now. If they tried and somebody said no, they would have no problems filing a lawsuit claiming discrimination. I will repeat some of what he said. Turn off the television and video games, it doesn't make any sense for these young children to be sitting around wasting time and their lives in front of a t.v. set. Speaking of t.v., I remember on an episode of Roseanne where she was telling her son, "You got to develop your brain first, before you rot it out." That is all television is doing. Filling their heads with a bunch of filth and useless mess. People pay over $100.00 a month for cable every month, when they can go down to the library and check out a book for free. It doesn't make any sense. Then we have the teens running around with the cell phones, Ipods, most expensive clothes and shoes in the store and driving the best cars and they don't have no job. But when the police stop them and question them, they get an attitude. I am especially annoyed by the welfare mother's who look like the just stepped out of a fashion magazine. Then you see their children and it looks like their hair hasn't been combed in weeks, their clothes are dirty, they don't have lotion on their legs, and you wonder how they are keeping those holy shoes on their feet. I know you know what I am talking about. These women don't have a job, the least they can do is have enough pride to send their children to school looking decent. Stop sitting on your butt every day watching Judge Judy and Soap Operas. Those people have jobs. Get up and go to school and make something of yourself, while the government is handing you money. No one should have to make it mandatory, you should want to do it. Since when did having a child become a permanent. I remember this one African American lady who worked here(in the mental institution where they have me). She would come in here talking loud with her cut off shirts on. Sometime when she sat down, you could see her underwear. Her relatives would drive by and yell at her through the window and she would yell back at them. She was just very unprofessional in so many ways. She was a grandmother and at least in her forties, so she should have known better. I was so embarrassed that I would do things to try to help her and make her look good. Then one day she told me, You got mental issues, no one is going to listen to you. I got so mad, I told her, you know what, you are a disgrace to my race. Needless to say she is no longer here. I said to myself, she has raised children and is helping raise her grandchildren, will she ever get it? http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080715/ap_on_el_pr/obama_blacks
