Media Malpractice: Men in Tights

Image
   We all know the story of Robin Hood. The brave man who dared to defy his crooked government to feed the poor and starving. We have something like that going on today and it's not as glorious as Robin's adventures. You see Robin Hood took from his government the money taken by insanely high taxes for the king's lavish usage but today we're taking from hardworking taxpayers to give to people who don't pay taxes and into services that the majority doesn't want.    Around the time Obama was getting elected in '08 I asked a peer what she thought of democrat's concept to redistribute the wealth of others. She claimed to be fine with it and said it was fair because some people were born with a silver spoon in their mouth. I was appalled by her answer. What a way to think. I couldn't allow her to just have that opinion in her mind. So I told her I thought it was wrong and gave her the scenario of her currently working hard at school to make her dreams i...

PSA: My Generation!!

Image
  If you say you're not a follower you most likely are. To my generation I see people constantly trying to speak unification of the world but hate those whose views oppose their own. They say older adults and children are drones yet look at your choices, you're no different. You think you're above the masses? Hey you maybe different from your neighbor and friends but there's someone out there who's influenced your decision to be so very "different". Assess your choices. Adults are dumb? "When you grow up your heart dies"?   Every teen generation ahead of your own (especially the 60s) thought they were smarter than everyone. Some (not all) adults got the memo that life isn't all about pleasure. Life isn't all about art, music and love. If you want to own something, you're faced with Uncle Sam the Tax man and all other little fees placed on you. If you have kids, your heart walks around in a little body that you try desperately to...

Media Malpractice

Image
There is a documentary by this same name that I'm using called Media Malpractice: How Obama Got Elected . You can find the film on YouTube , I strongly recommend all of my readers to check it out. I titled my blog with the same name because I've been wanting to talk about politics more and media schemes and I believe this will give me that platform. I need things to be organized which is why I have so many series. This will be the first of prayerfully many more post on this theme. Today I'd like to build the foundation on why I'm even starting this subject. I am a Conservative, socially and fiscally. I believe many others are also fiscally (financially) Conservative even if we don't agree on social topics. Growing up I've run into a lot of (I'm sorry to say) ignorance when it came to politics. I'm not trying to be mean but when I've asked people about why they believe the way they do they can't explain themselves or give factual information t...

Love It Or Leave It: Music Review

Image
I don't know about you but I love free things especially free music. I've found a few free mixtapes that I thought were cool and want to share with you all. I love it all so no need for the instructions this time. Yay my first music review in the LoVeIt Or LeaveIt series. Fruit Cocktail B3AR FRUIT: Various Artist "A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit." Matthew 7:18 Kind of old but if I didn't know about this until now I'm sure someone else doesn't know about this either. This mixtape features only a few people I know but the music is inspirational, educational, encouraging and you get introduced to several different artist. The whole album has a kind of jazzy 90s feel to it. My favorite song: Gentleness by Trip Lee, I like how he personifies Gentleness and the flow of his verses. Release Date: November 2010 You can find it here: http://b3arfruit.bandcamp.com/ PSA PRo The Mixtape "I don...

iLoVeIt: Youtube Channels

Image
I wanted to spotlight my top 3 favorite Youtube channels. Theses fall under the category of favorites because their entertaining, inspirational, and sometimes educational. Fagottron : My sister introduced me to this channel and I've loved it ever since. Pogo, the guy who makes these songs, brings together pieces of sound and lays it over his own tunes creating these 3 minute masterpieces of art, whether he makes the vids or not I don't know. He's currently trying to remix the world like he does with movies. In his venture to take the world by music he needs funding and if you want to help out visit " kickstarter ". I've talked about one of his vids in my " Phantasy " post a while back but didn't really talk about the work so there it is. ginaBiina : This girl is funny. I like her vids because they're not only beauty tips but vlogs and I haven't found that many black females doing the whole package deal with nice quality cams to b...

Judging Others Defended

Yes I know this is a very long blog but the read is worth it. I hear and read many people say that Christians aren't suppose to judge others but THAT'S NOT TRUE. If you want to truly know what gives Christians the right to judge read on.   " When Dan Quayle said that Murphy Brown’s giving birth to an illegitimate child wasn’t a good role model for America’s youth, he was ridiculed, called “judgmental,” and labeled arrogant.  Who was he to pontificate about “family values”?  Quayle wasn’t hit with the criticism rightly leveled against some—that they are hypocrites.  He was accused of doing what no one has the right to do: telling others how to live. It’s been said that the most frequently quoted Bible verse is no longer John 3:16 but Matthew 7:1: “Do not judge, or you too will be judged.”  We cannot glibly quote this, though, without understanding what Jesus meant.  When Jesus condemned judging, he wasn’t at all implying we should never make judgme...
