Stacey Dash Is Still Clueless And People Are Noticing It!

Stacey Dash created a shit storm.

Out of the freezer after a two week thaw, washed up actress turned political agitator Stacey Dash once again appears on the right wing network to throw shade on Black America.

She turns 49 this week. And for her birthday, she wants Black America to stop whining about grievances.

Dash is a commentator on Outnumbered.

On the right wing network Dash went on to slam Jada Pinkett Smith and Spike Lee for advocating a boycott on the Oscars.

"I think it’s ludicrous. We have to make up our minds; either we want to have segregation or integration. If we don't want segregation, then we need to get rid of channels like BET and the BET Awards, and the [NAACP] Image Awards, where you're only awarded if you're black. If it were the other way around, we would be up in arms. It's a double standard […] Just like there shouldn't be a Black History Month. We're American, that's it."



Once a Democrat, Dash found love with a perennial loser by the name of Mitt Romney.

She faced some major heat from her fans when she announced she coming out as a proud Republican.

Ever since, she's been even more crazier.




BET fired back at her. They posted on their official social media pages slamming the washed up actress for being like I've said, "Clueless".

BET then responded with the below tweet, writing, “Soooooo @REALStaceyDash can we get our check back… or nah? #Remember #YouWereOnTheGame #AndWeDontMeanTheRapper.”

Touré: 28 Days Isn't Black History!

Obama News commentator slams the racist right for the notion of White History Month!

The racist right is unnerved over the fact that non-White interracial births are rising.

They've often attack the Black community and President Barack Obama for "ruining" America.

They blame us for grabbing "gubmint gibbs mes" and beating up on "da man".

And of course we're rewarded for our antics! We got Black History Month in February.

For the 28 (or 29) days in the smallest month of the year, Black Americans gather to post their achievements and remind "da man" that we've contributed to the greatness of this country.

The Cycle co-host Touré delivered a commentary that attempted to explain one of the enduring mysteries of Black History Month, and which included a modest proposal to give white people some way of gaining an advantage from their race.

Touré is up to the task, comparing the question to “fish not noticing water,” and quoting Chauncey de Vega of We Are Respectable Negroes comparing white angst over the month to “being a kid with all the toys in the world, and going to a birthday party and getting mad because another kid got a toy.”

Never one to simply curse the darkness, or blackness in this case, Touré offers up a solution: a “Race Card” for white people. The card would allow white people to use their race to get an advantage, and as Touré says, “it can be used at job sites, shopping malls, police stops, wherever where race matters.”

“The genius of it is that works just as white privilege does,” he continues. “You need do nothing to activate it. The advantage happens automatically, just like White History Month happens automatically.”

White History Month Float Stirs Controversy!

Story Photo
Wonder why The South lost? Beats me! But I know they're still relishing on being losers!

A town outside of Fayetteville, North Carolina had it's Fourth of July parade in which a farmer brought some unwanted attention to his float. He used his First Amendment speech to promote his float.

On his float is regards to WHITE HISTORY MONTH. And asking the public to have sympathy for a White person by giving them a hug.

In the Fayetteville Observer reports that the tractor was a feature at the parade and it's attracted controversy.

Several spectators at the Hope Mills Fourth of July parade have complained to town officials that they're offended by a float that appeared in the parade Thursday.

The incident is prompting officials to review the town's parade application process later this month.

In the parade that went through downtown Hope Mills, a float carrying a bed full of watermelons was attached to a John Deere tractor. A Confederate flag was attached to the back. On each side, there were two small white signs. They said "White History Month" and "hug wht ppl."

Town officials have received about a dozen phone calls or emails about the float. Others have voiced concerns on the Facebook page of the town's Parks and Recreation Department as well as on social media.

The float was one of eight entered by Donnie Spell in Thursday's parade, said Kenny Bullock, director of the Parks and Recreation Department.

Spell could not be reached for comment Friday.

Bullock said Friday he had asked a member of Spell's family to take the signs down before the parade started Thursday morning. He said he does not know why they did not comply with the request.

He learned the signs were still on the tractor midway through the parade when people started calling his cell phone, he said.

Hope Mills Mayor Jackie Warner said she received a few phone calls and an email about the float. She did not see the float during Thursday's festivities because she was part of the parade. She later saw a photo of the float.
Conservatives believe Blacks are "racist" because they have Black History Month. Conservatives don't understand why Blacks have a month devoted to them, but not to White people.
"I believe we've got to make sure we're sensitive to all people's feelings," she said.

The spectator who sent her the email said the float is not representative of the Hope Mills community. She agreed and said residents should not have to see a float they find offensive in the parade.

"Our town has become more diverse," she said Friday.

All floats in town parades are entered through the Parks and Recreation Department, Bullock said. He said the application process includes a brief description of what a float will include. Those signs were not included in Spell's application, he said.

Bullock said Spell has entered tractors in the town's parades, which also includes a Christmas parade, for years.

The board plans to review the application process to ensure it does not happen again, Warner and Bullock said.

Warner said the discussion will be added to the commissioners' July 15 meeting.

Bullock said recreation officials will make recommendations to the commissioners about how to better screen floats in the future.

"I feel like, in my opinion, I feel like there's a time and a place for everything," Bullock said. "Was the parade the place? I don't think so."

Washed Up Celebrity Victoria Jackson Says Whites Will Revolt Against Obama!

Baby face Victoria Jackson, a washed up celebrity and favorite among the Tea Party faithful.

The former Saturday Night Live comedian continues to take the Republican Party to the "Land of Stupid".

When your limelight fades you become irrelevant. And today, Victoria Jackson you're a washed up celebrity.

The former comedian turned political agitator supports the Tea Party movement.

She occasionally appears at Tea Party rallies expressing her disdain for President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party.

Her political fame came when Fox News had her on to talk about the president, former SNL writer Al Franken and how to bring Republicans into the White House.

Jackson was one of the first conservative celebrities to come out against Al Franken. Franken once appeared on SNL and wrote films. He also was political analysis, book writer, and radio host. He is currently a U.S. Senator from Minnesota.

Mediaite and Wonkette obtained some information about the washed up celebrity ranting on her personal blog about Black History Month.

She complains on her blog about the double standard! She says that "if it wasn't for the WHITE MAN, you Blacks wouldn't have a month devoted to you!"

But she's not a racist! She does have Black friends!

The piece was obtained by Wonkette and cache by Google. Read carefully with discretion!

I wrote a uke song called “White Men Are Good” and sang it at a comedy club about 4 years ago. I could feel the audience tense up. Why? Why is there a Black History Month but not a White History Month? Now, that the white race is becoming a minority in America, perhaps we need to make…say, January, White History Month.

The New York Times says, ” White births are no longer a majority in the United States.”

I’m just really tired of the white male, and especially the white conservative, Christian male being attacked in cartoons, movies, TV shows, politics, Affirmative Action, etc. It’s like in order to fix the “discrimination” problem, culture flipped the racism from “against blacks” to “against whites”. Why do we have to be “against” anyone? Aren’t we all equal?

Just for the record, white men invented rockets, space travel, airplanes, the automobile, the English language, the U.S.A., most medical advances, electricity, television, telescope, microscope, Ivy League Universities, the computer, the Internet, and on and on. I think white men should be praised and respected. White Christian Conservative Men especially, should be loved and adored. They were the backbone and originators of the greatest nation on earth. We need more of them now.

In November, 2012 The Blaze reported that Alec Baldwin tweeted, “…Obama’s re-election signaled the end of white, middle-aged Christian male dominance”.

Maybe that’s why our country is going to pot; our huge deficit, foreign attacks, crashing economy, racial and class warfare, immigration problems, bigger government, disappearing freedom, growing poverty, sky-rocketing unemployment, rancid immorality, more pregnant teens, etc. etc. – “the end of white, middle-aged Christian male dominance.” I’m just saying.

Find a white, middle-aged Christian man today and hug him. And then, encourage him and your white Christian sons to stand up, be leaders again, and save our country from the God-hating communists like Alec Baldwin and Obama.

Ukulele playing. 

Here's a reason to why I hate conservatives! Note: I didn't say Republicans.

People who are trapped in the bubble of Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and The Drudge Report.

People who create websites devoted to trashing women, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Muslims, and even those in the LGBT community.

People who spread racial emails online and then get caught! Their excuse is that they're not like this.

People who can't accept the president shooting a rifle.

People who can't accept the president's birth certificate.

People who get riled up over the most trivial things done by the president. Whether he's eating Dijon mustard, or going on a golfing outing, to appearing on David Letterman, these people can't fathom anything he does.

People who think civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican.

People who believe ALL Republicans stood for the civil rights of all Americans.

People who believe that President Barack Obama is a socialist, communist, Marxist, etc.

People who comment online with racial slurs.

People who create phony profiles of me, you and others based on spite of political, racial, or social issues.

People who spent hours a day keyboard raging over a comment they don't agree with.

Victoria Jackson and people like her are what Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal said last month. Jindal criticized Republicans for being "The Stupid Party"!

The washed up celebrity as well as many associated with the Tea Party Movement and White Supremacist bubble made the victory of President Barack Obama even more sweeter.

In less than forty years, the White male population will decrease. Non-White births (Asian, Black and Hispanic) are growing at a faster rate. The Republicans are trying to dismiss the notion they're the WHITE PEOPLE'S PARTY!

90% of their members are White. 10% of the rest are whatever you can fit into a clown car!

NFL Player Pisses Off The LGBT Community!

I only do the ladies! - Chris Culliver.
The NFL corner back comes under fire when he spoke out against gay players in the NFL. The player apologized for his comments.

The NFC champions the San Francisco 49ers are going through a damage control by one of its players.

San Francisco is the hub of LGBT activism. The city represents the nation's growing Asian population and is the largest city with members of the LGBT community.

The 49ers play against AFC champions Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XLVII at New Orleans Mercedez-Benz Superdome. The SuperBowl is one of the world's largest television events. Over 180 million people will watch the Super Bowl on CBS this Sunday.

Chris Culliver has put his team in a negative light! He was interviewed on sports radio and made the statement that "gays aren't welcomed to the [NFL]!"

Culliver, in a radio interview with Artie Lange, said he has no desire to have a gay teammate. In a Super Bowl week that has been dominated for the first time by stories about deer-antler spray, Culliver became the first player in Super Bowl history to use the forum to make anti-gay comments.

“I don’t do the guys. I don’t do that,” Culliver said. “We don’t have any gays on the team. They gotta get up outta here if they do. Can’t be with that sweet stuff.”

Culliver’s comments were made Tuesday and began circulating Wednesday. That prompted the 49ers to issue a statement distancing themselves from Culliver.

“The San Francisco 49ers reject the comments that were made (Tuesday), and have addressed the matter with Chris,” the statement said. “There is no place for discrimination within our organization at any level. We have and always will proudly support the LGBT community.”

Culliver, a third-round pick in 2011 from South Carolina, said if a player is gay, he should not go public with it. “Yeah, come out 10 years later after that,” he said.

No active NFL player has ever come out and said he was gay, likely fearing the backlash from teammates in the locker room. Culliver’s small-minded approach won’t go over well in San Francisco, which has a large gay community.

Later Wednesday after the comments circulated, Culliver offered a bizarre, half-hearted apology distributed by the 49ers.

“The derogatory comments I made yesterday were a reflection of thoughts in my head, but they are not how I feel,” Culliver said in the statement. “It has taken me seeing them in print to realize that they are hurtful and ugly. Those discriminating feelings are truly not in my heart. Further, I apologize to those who I have hurt and offended, and I pledge to learn and grow from this experience.”

This controversy spins into the LGBT being outraged over the death of Tyler Clementi, the Rutgers University student who jumped off the George Washington Bridge.

Clementi was secretly filmed having sex with another man by roommate Dharun Ravi and Molly Wei. Ravi broadcast the encounter on the internet. It drove Clementi to killing himself.

Now the LGBT community is fighting against bigotry. Last year they've taken on former presidential candidate Rick Santorum, Chick-Fil-A, outed Arizona sheriff Paul Babeu and other bigots.

Although it's becoming more acceptable for those in the LGBT community some in the Black community are more conservative on gay rights. Hip-Hop music, Black athletes and even some Black politicians still have trouble accepting same sex couples. However there's cracks in the bubble. President Barack Obama came in defense of gay marriage last year. Blacks slightly oppose gay marriage.

I support equal rights for all Americans, straight, gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered.

I tolerate all races, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, economic and sometimes political standings.

The reason for sometimes political standings is mainly because I've gotten tired of conservatives masquerading patriotism under the guise of bigotry and hate.

MA Gov. Deval Patrick Picks Mo Cowan To Replace John Kerry!

Senator Mo Cowan (D-Massachusetts)

There will be two Black members of the United States Senate.

The confirmation of John Kerry as Secretary of State leaves a U.S. Senate without a member.

Massachusetts governor Deval Partick, names a replacement. The governor picked his chief of staff, William "Mo" Cowan to replace Kerry until a special election is held. The last Black senator who represented Massachusetts was Edward Brooke, a Black Republican.

This will give the U.S. Senate two Black senators. A first in history that there's more than one Black member of the U.S. Senate. He is 43 years old and resides in Stoughton, Massachusetts with his wife and has two sons.

Neither Scott or Cowan were elected to serve. The last Black senator elected to office was Barack Obama who later would become the current President Of The United States. The Illinois governor at the time Rod Blagojevich selected former attorney general Roland Burris as his replacement. Burris retired from the senate and the seat went to Mark Kirk, an Illinois U.S. Representative.

Last year, Jim DeMint resigned two years into his term to be the president of The Heritage Foundation and South Carolina governor Nikki Haley selected Tim Scott, a U.S. Representative to replace him. Scott was sworn in this month. He is the only Black Republican. For at least four weeks, Scott was the only Black senator.

Upon being sworn in, Cowan will become the eighth African-American United States Senator and the second from Massachusetts after Edward Brooke. He will also be one of two African-American Senators in the 113th Congress, along with Republican South Carolina Senator Tim Scott.

Current members of the 113th Congress who were sworn in as replacements included:

Senator Dean Heller (R-Nevada)
Senator Michael Bennet (D-Colorado)
Senator Kristen Gillibrand (D-New York)
Senator Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii)
Senator Lisa Murkowski (I/R-Alaska)
Senator Bob Menendez (D-New Jersey)
Senator Roger Wicker (R-Mississippi)

Deval Patrick the first Black governor of Massachusetts had picked replacement members of the U.S. Senate. When liberal icon Ted Kennedy passed away, the governor selected Paul Kirk as the replacement.

Republican Scott Brown a state senator from Massachusetts who allied by the Tea Party won the seat and continued the remaining term. He was defeated by consumer advocate Elizabeth Warren.

Brown is signalling that he may run again!

Scott is also signalling he'll run in the U.S. Midterms through a special election in 2014. Scott and Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) will be up in a likely hold for Republicans.

The Huffington Post reports that Cowan will continue the legacy of Massachusetts longest serving senator.

He said there would be "no daylight" between him and Kerry on policy. When asked about the looming sequester, he said the "best-case scenario" was a "balanced approach" of spending cuts and tax increases. "I don't think anyone believes it's in the best interest to do straight across-the-board cuts," he said.

Patrick has consistently said that the pick to succeed Kerry should not run in the general election slated for June 25. Cowan embraced the temporary appointment Wednesday, repeating over and over that his stint would be short. Asked about his political future, he said, "I am not running for office; I am not a candidate in the future."

The late Senator Ted Kennedy requested in a letter written before his death that the interim pick to replace him not run in the general election, a principle that Patrick honored after Kennedy died by picking Kennedy's longtime chief of staff, Paul Kirk.

Former Representative Barney Frank was the only person to publicly campaign for the interim appointment, announcing his desire to fill the seat on MSNBC and doing subsequent interviews about it. Frank endorsed Representative Ed Markey (D-Massachusetts) as the preferred candidate for the U.S. Midterm elections.

Frank praised Cowan in a brief statement Wednesday. "I know Mr. Cowan is committed to working hard and in a socially fair and economically efficient manner toward solving pending budget issues," he said. “I now look forward to working for the election of Ed Markey to continue this work, and to providing President Obama the support he deserves in carrying out the mandate he received in November." A Frank representative did not respond to interview requests from The Huffington Post.

The only announced candidate for the general election is Markey, who has received a flood of endorsements from Democrats -- including Kerry -- and has a $3.1 million war chest. Representative Stephen Lynch (D-Massachusetts) is expected to announce his bid Thursday for the seat. Lynch holds more conservative positions than Markey; he opposes abortion rights and voted against President Barack Obama's health care law.

If Cowan changes his mind and decides he'll seek a full term as a senator, he will compete in a three way Democratic race for the primary nomination against both Massachusetts Democratic Representatives Markey and Lynch.
