Jacky, it is my understanding that Donald Trump is thinking about running for President, do you think he could win and if so, do you think he will make a good President?

Donald Trump running for president is a complete joke…Trump couldn’t even beat Sarah Palin in the Republican race to be a presidential candidate. Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee will destroy Donald Trump, so he doesn’t have a chance to be running against President Obama in the 2012 presidential election. But if Donald wants to spend his money on being a politician, I say let him. Know why? Because it’s good for the economy.

Trump reminds me of Meg Whitman — they both know they don’t have a chance in politics, but do it for the publicity and spotlight. And, whether you believe it or not, President Obama will serve two terms in office.

Don’t believe me? Ask Jeb Bush.

A jail cell is probably the last thing you’d expect to see in a park, but that’s exactly what’s being showcased in one Philadelphia park…and there’s a man inside, doing time. But the difference between the time this man is serving and others in jail is he wants to be inside his jail cell.

Michael Ta’Bon is an ex-convict who believes that he can scare kids straight by showing them what it’s like to live in a jail cell. It took Ta’Bon 30-hours to build the jail display, which stands in the Nicetown-Tioga area of Philadelphia. It’s a display which has drawn the attention of area teachers and police, who are using the idea as an example for high risk teenagers to learn from. Once those chosen teens are brought to the park to see the tough love display, they see the 36-year-old suited up in an orange jumpsuit and unshackled handcuffs, who makes the teens repeat “Jail is for suckers.”

Here’s what Micheal Ta’Bon had to say:

There’s a soon-to-be released iPhone IPad game called “Smuggle Truck” that’s stirring up racial controversy. That’s because the premise of the noted ‘border-jumping’ game is for the player to attempt to drive a truck to the border while trying not to lose any of the passengers riding on the back of the truck. Talk about racist innuendos.

What do you all think? Should the game be banned before its release? I say YES!

If Senators Joe Liberman and Susan Collins have their way, the American government will have the right to shut off the Internet — just as the Egyptian regime recently did.

Isn’t America supposed to be “the land of the free”????? Well, if that’s the case, than why is it that legislation is now on the table which if passed would grant the government authority to stop the information super highway we know as the net?

Now, it’s critical for us to spread the word, and urge our politicians to say NO to the internet kill switch!
We must guard against any effort to curtail our access to the open Internet. Continue Reading…

Sarah Palin’s isn’t too happy with her daughter these says.

That’s because 20-year-old Bristol Palin has agreed to work for Michelle Obama’s public service council. Now, Bristol Palin is set to partake in commercials against teen pregnancy, orchestrated by the First Lady.

Here’s what Bristol had to say about working with her mother’s opposition:

“I’ll actually be in DC this week. First Lady has invited me to be part of council she’s creating. Mom is not happy, oh well.”

Even though Sarah Palin has Tweeted the worst things about the First Lady, it seems that Michelle Obama is a great chess player – her move to make Bristol Palin a teen anti-pregnancy advocate is genius. Know why? Because it hurts Sarah Palin’s ego mane! Michelle saw Bristol Palin on Dancing With The Stars, so she knows Bristol loves the camera and attention. That’s exactly why she offered her enemy’s daughter the spotlight. And guess what? It worked! Vanity is one of mankind’s greatness weaknesses.

Don’t you agree?

This kid could have a future in politics.

Zach Wahls, a 19-year-old University of Iowa student spoke about the strength of his family during a public forum on House Joint Resolution 6 in the Iowa House of Representatives. Wahls has two mothers, and came to oppose House Joint Resolution 6 which would end civil unions in Iowa.

Kool Herc could be facing the challenge of his life.

The hip hop founder is reportedly sick, and doesn’t have the money to pay for his medical bills. It’s unknown at this time what sort of illness the 57-year-old hip hip icon is battling.

For those of you who may not know, Kool Herc was born in Jamaica and moved with his family to Bronx New York in 1967. That’s where the man also known as Clive Campbell invented the break. To create that sound, he would buy two of the same records and spin just the instrumental break of the record while spinning the break with another turntable. The year was 1972. By 1975, other musicians like Afrika Bambaataa and Grand Master Flash followed Kool Herc’s formula while adding emcee’s rapping in those breaks and break dancing. I guess that’s why some say that Hip Hop was originated in the Bronx….

I remember seeing Kool Herc at 2004′s VH1 Hip Hop Honors. That’s where and everyone showed him their respect…from Russell Simmons down to each and every rapper who performed that evening. Now, I hope those same people all come together to help him with some financial aid for his medical bills.

Here’s what Gangstarr’s DJ Premier had to say about Kool Herc: Continue Reading…
