The Return Of Reading Rainbow!

Reading Rainbow is in the works for a grand return.

LaVar Burton has motivated childhood memories with his program Reading Rainbow. His show told American youth the gifts of reading a book. You don't have to take his word for it! I mean it was one of the best shows in American media.

It's been awhile since the show been off the air, but thanks to Kickstarter, Reading Rainbow is back in business.

You remember the song?



Reading Rainbow is an American children's television series that aired on PBS from June 6, 1983, until November 10, 2006, that encouraged children to read. In 2012 an iPad and Kindle Fire educational interactive book reading and video field trip application was launched bearing the name of the program.

The public television series garnered over 200 broadcast awards, including a Peabody Award and 26 Emmy Awards, 11 of which were in the "Outstanding Children's Series" category. The series was created under the leadership of Cecily Truett Lancit and Larry Lancit, at Lancit Media Productions in New York. The concept of a reading series for children originated with Twila Liggett, Ph.D., and Paul Schupbach (director), of the Great Plains National Instructional Television Library at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln; and Tony Buttino, of WNED-TV Buffalo, New York. The original team included Lynne Brenner Ganek, Ellen Schecter, and host LeVar Burton.

Even Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane (who had Burton as a guest on the show) chipped in a ton of money to bring back the program.

Reading Rainbow App was released for the iPad and, within 36 hours, became the #1 most-downloaded educational app in the iTunes App Store.

Built from the ground up by LeVar Burton and his company, RRKIDZ, the app allows children to read unlimited books, explore video field trips starring Burton, and earn rewards for reading.

The week of June 11, 2013, Reading Rainbow celebrated its 30th anniversary.

GOP Picks The Event By The Lake!

Cleveland, Ohio will be hosting the Republican National Convention.

Ohio Republican governor John Kasich and the Ohio Republican Party lobbied for this event. This will be a pick of choice. The state went to Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012 in his bid for the presidency. They don't want to lose a "very important" state.

The Republican National Committee picked Cleveland over Dallas, Texas in their choice for hosting the 2016 Republican National Convention.

For the next two years, Cleveland will get their act together. They will make so many changes to the area and try to appeal to those wealthy Republicans who will flock to the city. They will sweep the memories of blight, Ariel Castro and the protesters under a rug.

The city will find ways to keep the protesters away from the Quicken Loan Arena.

The pimps and prostitutes will be $$$ in their eyes. The female and male prostitutes will make Republicans feel so good when they arrive. Those so called family values types will leave their wedding rings in their luxury hotel rooms and grab a quickie!
The Official logo of the Republican Party.
Pizza places and bars will see a rise in revenue. After all the pizza places and nightclubs will be hoping that $$$ will travel. The country, rock and hip-hop music establishments are favorites among young Republicans.

Young Republicans will be in the city with cameras in tow to find that one Black or Hispanic Democratic voter who will say they gotten their "Obama Phone".

The Horseshoe Casino will have a influx of Republicans willing to put on sunglasses and brown trench coats to hide when they come into the establishment for a night of gambling.

Cleveland area will see a boost in revenue. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Cleveland Indians, Cedar Point, the Greater Cleveland RTA, the NASA facility, The Cleveland Browns, the Metroparks Zoo, the Steelyard, the Waterfront, and Ohio City will see an jump in revenue.

Democratic mayor Frank Jackson will be welcoming the Republican establishment, the Tea Party insurgency and the religious right into the city. He will love the millions to build in his city.

The junk food media, celebrities, and state politicos will be heading to the city.

The Plain-Dealer got a hold of the Republican chairman, Captain Jackass Reince Priebus and wanted to get his feedback on their decision to make Ohio a choice for Republicans.

"We're excited about bringing the convention to Cleveland in Ohio, and we're excited about the decision. We think it's a smart decision," Priebus said.

Cleveland edged out Dallas, the other finalist, as the recommended location for the convention, giving the city an opportunity to strut its stuff to a national crowd while placing Ohio even more firmly in the political spotlight for the upcoming presidential election.

"I think it's great," Rob Frost, the Cuyahoga County Republican Party Chairman, said in an interview late Tuesday morning. "I'm really excited to welcome our Republican colleagues from around the nation to Cleveland in 2016. I think this convention will really elevate Cleveland in the eyes of the nation, and elevate Republicans in the eyes of Cleveland."

Frost credited the unified effort of local business, civic and political leaders for helping to bring the convention in. He particularly singled out Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson, a Democrat.

"Those are efforts other cities didn't have behind them, and it all started with Mayor Jackson," Frost said.
The chief is hoping to find that rainbow coalition.
Enid Mickelsen, the chairwoman of the RNC's site selection committee, said in a written statement:

"Cleveland is a phenomenal city, and I can't think of a better place to showcase our party and our nominee in 2016. This committee was tasked with difficult decisions and was presented with several strong options to host our convention. I'm confident Cleveland is the right pick for our next national convention. Cleveland has demonstrated they have the commitment, energy, and terrific facilities to help us deliver a history-making Republican convention."

"I extend my deepest gratitude to Dallas," she added. "Dallas is a world-class city with wonderful venues and fantastic people and I'm certain they'll make a great host for our party in the future. The Dallas team were excellent ambassadors for their city and showed both the committee and the RNC all the wonderful things the city has to offer."

"This is great news for Northeast Ohio," Cuyahoga County Executive Ed FitzGerald, the 2014 Democratic nominee for governor, said in a written statement. "There's no question Cleveland is now in the middle of a historic renaissance."

Now that the recommendation from the Republican National Committee's site selection committee is in, negotiations with Cleveland officials are expected to begin shortly. A press conference, featuring Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson, County Executive Ed FitzGerald, Cleveland 2016 RNC Host Committee Executive Chair, Terrance "Terry" Egger and others is scheduled for 3 p.m. at the Global Center for Health Innovation in downtown Cleveland.

The courtship with the national GOP dates back to at least February, when the city submitted its bid. Cleveland was selected a week later as one of eight contenders.

The RNC narrowed the list to four in late May, and on June 25 picked Cleveland and Dallas as the two finalists to host the event.

And last week, RNC officials visited Cleveland to assess "creative ways" to make the city's bid work.

Conventions can be significant economic generators for a city. One study showed that the 2012 GOP convention pumped more than $200 million into the Tampa and Florida economies. That convention drew roughly 50,000 visitors.

Cleveland's convention pitch was rooted in political geography and in a downtown renaissance that leaders said occurred after the city lost its bid for the GOP's 2008 convention. Since that audition, Cleveland has added more hotel rooms and a new convention center.

Dallas has a population of 1.43 million residents. Cleveland has a population of 397,000 residents.

Texas is a Republican friendly state. Ohio is a major swing state. If a nominee wins the state in the presidential election, its likely they'll be the President of The United States.

Last event for the Republicans was the Tampa Bay Times Forum arena in Tampa.

Florida went to Barack Obama twice.

Democrats had Time Warner Cable Arena in Charlotte.

North Carolina went to perennial loser Mitt Romney.

Republicans hope that picking Ohio will boost the nominee's chances of winning.

The cruel choice black women face: Between education and safety

The cruel choice black women face: Between education and safety

IMPEACH!

Conservatives are having a case of impeachment fever.

Conservatives and the racist right can't stand him. They really can't stand him and now they're pressuring Republicans to bring forth the word....

Nearly 16 years ago, the very same members are trying to rehash the notion. A handful of far right Republican politicos are threatening impeachment again. Pissed off over the president issuing executive orders to get things going. And he ain't even apologizing for doing that!

Republicans are whining and throwing lawsuits at him. They're throwing not only lawsuits but insults on his character and ginning up funds to beat the Democrats in the Midterms.

Congress is politically ranked among the worst. Weeper John Boehner (R-OH) and Whisperer Harry Reid (D-NV) are feckless and ineffective. Minority Leaders Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Mitt McConnell (R-KY) are fucked up too.

The Stallmigos are annoying as hell. Rand Paul (R-KY), Mike Lee (R-UT), Ted Cruz (R-TX), and Marco Rubio (R-FL) are agitators more than lawmakers. The agitators on radio are planning their coronation for defeat. They hope these losers will be the next president.

AGAIN, these four politicos have NO LEGISLATIVE ACCOMPLISHMENTS and yet they appear in the junk food media more than most politicos.

TOO MANY GOD DAMN APPEARANCES FROM JOHN MCCAIN (R-AZ), LINDSEY GRAHAM (R-SC), JOE MANCHIN (D-WV), DICK DURBIN (D-IL), REP. MIKE ROGERS (R-MI), REP. MICHELE BACHMANN (R-MN), AND REP. DARRELL ISSA (R-CA).

You hardly see senators like Cory Booker (D-NJ), Mark Kirk (R-IL),  Patty Murray (D-WA), Kay Hagan (D-NC), Mike Enzi (R-WY), Maria Cantrell (D-WA), Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) in the junk food media.
Feckless Republican leaders plotted gridlock the moment Obama was sworn in.
I mean how many legislative bodies were passed by Congress and signed by the president?

How many legislative days and hours were used by the 113th Congress?

Yeah, let's play this game. C'mon draft the Articles of Impeachment toward the president. We need Republicans, conservatives and White extremists to get their wet dreams fulfilled.

It's practically a DO NOTHING CONGRESS and yet we're more focused on President Barack Obama.

What if Quinnipiac University done a poll on how Congress is ranked?

I can tell you that both political parties aren't good. They're very bad. Extremely bad.

Republicans rate worse than Democrats but yet are likely the ones to retake the Congress in the Midterms.

Douchebag senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Pat Toomey (R-PA) during a press conference in 2013. They were calling for reasonable gun control after the Sandy Hook tragedy. They own guns but wanted to limit firearms to the mentally insane. That failed.
The Republicans are practically more enthusiastic in voting than the Democrats. But that was said back in 2012 when the junk food media was saying that [perennial loser] Mitt Romney was the best candidate to take on Obama.

Republicans are very vengeful. They lost in 2008 and 2012. They're fecklessness and inefficient lawmakers who can't work.

Democrats are vengeful too. Say if we get a Republican president. You already know what's going to happen. They will go to town on the Republican president.

Also if you look at the word vomit on the comment pages, it's practically tell the world that Americans are downright mean and utterly stupid. Yeah, stupid is a nasty way of telling it, but by gosh we're so misinformed by the junk food media.

Truth isn't even considered a fact. It's just another spin cycle for the agitators.

Okay, the Washington Post has a record of how many times that word been thrown around by Republicans and their conservative allies. It's been there since 2009, right after Barack Obama was sworn in as president.
The Stallmigos: Rand Paul (R-KY), Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT)
They [plotted and move forth] the strategy of obstructing the president at every whim. They would later turn that obstruction to utter bitching about things not getting better. They would say "Where's the jobs?" over and over until they've won the control of the House of Representatives.

When they gotten back in power of the House, the Republicans wasted time trying to find out Benghazi, Fast & Furious, the IRS documents targeting shadowy Tea Party groups, Edward Snowden pushing out CIA/NSA leaks, the Osama bin Laden raid, the release of Beau Bergdahl and the healthcare website.

Everything and anything coming out of the Republican playbook.

Here's a nugget from the lunatic fringe.







This is why it's important to vote this coming election. I mean you have the right to be "like this individual" and those who support him. That's probably why it's important that this stuff is condemned by the rational.

I mean you don't have to be a liberal, conservative or non-partisan to see that impeachment is government overreach. Just because you have a disagreement with the president, it doesn't grounds for impeachment.

Seriously, we are truly a mean nation. There's no respect for lawmakers. I even have more disgust for Washington lawmakers nowadays. I am tired of Republicans bitching and want Obama to hit them hard.

Hit them so hard, they can feel it. I mean if he swung at Boehner and McConnell and knock their pathetic asses out, then maybe you can file an assault charge on the president and impeach him on the grounds of felonious assault. 

By the way if we impeach and remove Obama, then Vice President Joe Biden will become the 45th President of the United States. And rest assured, he'll complete a second term.

Joan Rivers: Obama Is Gay! Michelle Looks Like A Tranny!

Celebrity agitator calls Michelle Obama a tranny! But seriously, does this agitator look like one?

The face lift pulls and the jokes are just like her, old.

Is she a washed up celebrity or just an annoying celebrity agitator?

Who knows but Joan Rivers at age 81 still acts a fool whenever they put a camera on her ass!

In the CNN interview which is getting a reasonable amount of play, Fredricka Whitfield keeps a smile on her face when this obnoxious celebrity whore continues to play out her book "Diary of A Mad Diva".

When she was interviewed by the paparazzi she was asked about the potential presidential run by Hillary Clinton and a future gay president.
Celebrity agitator known for her controversial remarks joked that Obama was gay and Michelle was a tranny!

The comedian known for her lack of self-censoring recently officiated a same-sex wedding and was asked by a photographer if she believed the United States would ever see the first gay or female president. Her response was typical Rivers.

"We already have it with Obama, so let's just calm down," she said. "You know Michelle (Obama) is a trans."

When asked to further explain Rivers said, "A transgender. We all know it."

For one thing, Michelle Obama is not a transsexual. Has Joan Rivers looked in a mirror and see how she looks nowadays?

Oh, I read an anonymous comment from some nobody saying that W. (George W. Bush) gets attacked by Hollywood. Of course, he was the butt of comedians. President Barack Obama is kind of difficult but not impossible. Comedians go after the president. Dinesh D'Souza made another movie that conservative agitators are promoting on Loserville and talk radio.

Joan Rivers looks like a tranny! How many face lifts has that woman and her daughter had?

81 years old and still trying to look like a young woman. I wonder if you pull the string off her face, it would drop down!

No disrespect to the LGBT community but if you consider Joan Rivers a friend of yours, then you may need to consider an amicable split.

Anyway here's the videos of Rivers acting a fool!

And since this also went viral, the racist right went forth with their praise of the comedian.

Ohio Teens Beat Up White Man After He Uttered Racial Slurs!

Dayton Ohio police are on the case. This photo from WHIO-TV, provides us a perspective of how Dayton Police handle a police pursuit on a local road.

Freedom of speech led to a major beat down of a man in Dayton, Ohio.

Caleb Morris isn't the innocent victim as the junk food media has painted out to be. I've done some checking into the 21-year old's profile and see he's a perennial resident of the local lockup. He's no angel.

However he didn't deserve the beat down from a bunch of stupid ass Black teens. He can say NIGGER all he wants. But again, he better remember how people especially Black men react to it. Some will just ignore you and sigh. Some will land a five finger roll directly in your face.

Sometimes you feel justified giving a five finger roll to the agitator, but think what could happen if the law see you do it?

You'll be the one locked up. Not the agitator. Even though the agitator started the conflict, he didn't land the first five finger roll.

A racial comment may have led to a man being beaten in Downtown Dayton by a group of teenagers.

According to a Dayton police report, a Montgomery County deputy driving an unmarked car came upon a man lying in the middle of South Ludlow Street, being kicked and beaten by 9 teenagers. It happened at about 11:30 p.m. Thursday night.

The Dayton Daily News reports a police deputy approached and the attackers scattered. After a brief foot pursuit, responding officers were able to catch two of the teens.
MugShot Caleb J Morris DAYTON, OH
Caleb Morris is no stranger to the county lockup. He's been in trouble for more than popping off his mouth. But those drugs he's injected or snorted.
The beating victim, 21-year-old Caleb Morris of Centerville, told police he and his girlfriend were walking in the 200-block of South Ludlow Street when they got into a verbal altercation with a group of teenagers.

Morris, who is white, admitted his girlfriend made racial comments to the group of black teenagers.

According to the report, Morris said his girlfriend rode away on a bicycle while he tried to outrun the group.

Morris stated they caught up with him and yelled to give them "everything" he had. Morris stated he pulled out $3 but the teens didn't take it. Instead, he said they began punching him in the face and chest. Morris told officers the teens pulled a stun gun and stunned him in the back and side. He said he fell to the ground and the teen's began laughing at him as they kicked him in the chest and side.

According to the report, that's when the deputy turned the corner and the attackers took off.

Two teenage boys were taken to the Juvenile Justice Center and charged with aggravated robbery, according to the report.

A medic was called to the scene to treat Morris.

Nebraska Parade Brings The Outhouse To Obama!


We're in the abyss!

The United States declared independence 238 years ago on July 4, 1776. The founding fathers of this nation gave their lives so all Americans could achieve the dream.

Above is the freedom of speech. The freedom of speech in a negative way.

The first Black president is ranked among the worst since World War II. President Barack Obama beats out George W. Bush and Richard Nixon as the worst president since the great war. A sign that Democrats are likely lose control of the Senate (hereby losing Congress) to the Republicans.

Why is that?

Could be something to do with his policies (ah hem race)?

Most Black people should have seen this coming! I mean the "FIRST BLACK AMERICAN PRESIDENT" will always get the most flack. You knew the extremists would be livid over him being elected twice.

We haven't seen much improvement between White and Black Americans. The divide has gotten wider.

White families seem to do much better under the policies of Obama than Blacks. Although, Whites want you to believe that Blacks and Hispanics do better under Obama. They believe Blacks vote solely on race and not on policies.

White people often would tell me, "That I don't want to offend you...."

You know that the first thing you'll get in the beginning. But "Obama is doing...."

And of course, they'll word vomit every thing they could think of. From immigration to the crisis over in the Middle East. They would complain about policies that were proposed but never passed. They will generate conspiracies about the president's executive orders. Some would question his birthplace, his religion and even have the nerve to call him a NIGGER.

But this is why the freedom of speech is granted for this. I hate this stuff.

But who's gonna stop them from being an American bigot. Or at least an American extremist!

Norfolk, NE has a parade float that caused a lot of controversy. On Friday, that float came across the main road and it said "Obama's Presidential Library". It was an outhouse on the back of truck with a dummy and a couple of nooses.
Driven by a White guy, seen by a Black family. Picture was taken by the Black family and it went viral.

Now the junk food media is wondering why city leaders allowed this "freedom of speech" come through!

I mean honestly in the state of Nebraska, President Barack Obama has little support there. But still the utter disrespect towards him comes straight out of the playbook of Loserville.

CBS reports that the float, in the annual Independence Day parade in Norfolk, NE., was affixed to trailer being towed behind a blue pickup truck. The dummy was clad in overalls, standing by a walker next to the outhouse.

The pickup truck and the float did not identify a sponsor, according to the Omaha World-Herald.

In a statement, the Nebraska Democratic Party called the float one of the "worst shows of racism and disrespect for the presidency that Nebraska has ever seen," according to the World-Herald.

Glory Kathurima, a black woman living in Norfolk, attended the parade with her nine year-old daughter. She told CBS News Omaha affiliate KMTV she was outraged by the float and disgusted that her daughter witnessed it.

"I'm ashamed, I'm appalled," she said. "You see people laughing and pointing at it, smiling, looking positive about it. I immediately felt sick to my stomach...I knew what that meant, and I knew there was no sort of political statement being made by an image like that."

Norfolk City Councilman Dick Pfeil told the World-Herald that the city "doesn't condone" the float.

But one of the parade's organizers, Rick Konopasek, told the Lincoln Journal-Star the float was intended to be no more offensive than a political cartoon. He said the outhouse was the most popular float in the parade, and that it earned an "honorable mention" from three judges.

"It's obvious the majority of the community liked it," Konopasek said. "So should we deny the 95 percent of those that liked it their rights, just for the 5 percent of people who are upset?"

Really, how about a Black or Hispanic person put together a float saying "THE TEA PARTY IS A RACIST'S BEST FRIEND!" or "IT'S GONNA BE WHOLE LOT A BROWN IN 30 YEARS! BUSH ENDED IN ERROR! OBAMA BEGINS IN TRANSITION!"

I would love to see the reaction of those insurgents of the Republican Party!
