Despite the handful of token blacks who've been brainwashed, paid, or otherwise manipulated into lying (a la Stockholm syndrome), or perhaps those to whom only finances like stocks matter,the truth is this - The Tea Party is a Racist Organization, Period.
Think of it - if they'd depicted a woman in office as a porno star, for instance, with skimpy or no clothing, trashy outfits (even more trashy that Sarah Palin's outrageously strippered-out spike heels), or, if they'd depicted a Mexican with a bandito sombrero outfit, a grizzled grin, and criss-crossed bullet straps, what do you think would have happened?
Even a chihuahua on Taco Bell's ads caused such a stir and calls of "racism" a few years ago that I'm surprised that there hasn't yet been a nation or world-wide outrage against the completely white group of right-winger reactionaries known as The Tea Party.
Why don't we all form a party of our own?
The sane among us.
The fair people.
The enlightened ones.
Call it The Coffee Party!
Think of all the shades of skin that would love to be represented there, from cafe au lait to darkest, richest brown.
We need an antidote to this party - one that reflects us all - all the whites who are outraged at The Tea Party, and at the Republicans in general!
The best thing is to join and become active with the Democratic Party!
If you find things you want improved, then let's get busy and improve things within the only good political party we have - The Democratic Party!
So, let's party and change things together!
Go To
RockTheVote.org
and Join The Democratic Party Today!
And support the NAACP, without whom NO fairness for non-whites would exist!

Jean Simmons Tribute by Ocean
Jean Simmons, the mesmerizingly brilliant actress of many of the finest movies ever made, has gone from this plane, but for the wonderful films she has left us.
I could not help crying.
Not only do I adore her in every role I've ever seen - and yes, I may not know the names of any current actors or actresses, but I, a constant TCM viewer, know all the real stars - but I know someone personally whom she has helped in times of need.
She is - was - as noble a person in real life as were the heroines that only she could play, like Varinia, the wife of Spartacus in Kirk Douglas' pivotal film, Spartacus.
Were you aware that all the filmmakers had chosen Spartacus as the best film ever made?
I hadn't known that when I, as a child, had selected it as my favorite of all time, and it still - largely due to the timelessness of Jean Simmon's enchantingly haunting portrayal of the slave heroine - stands as the very best ever made.
If you've never yet been lucky enough to have seen one of Jean Simmon's great films, do so now, and experience the agelessness of time, the irreplaceable aspects of otherworldliness and femininity that she brought effortlessly to the screen, and to film history.
A generous person in real life, she exuded qualities that we would like to think had applied to some of our beloved historical figures. Whether or not the reality fit the glamorously beautiful ideal that Simmon's portrayed or not, I'm sure the actual historical heroines would have given everything just to look like Jean Simmons, and Spartacus, who in actuality did not, or at least we don't know, have a wife, but if he had, he would certainly have won that revolt just to be able to be with someone so divinely gorgeous and regal.
Rent Spartacus and go back in time as you fall into instant belief in romance, heroism, and tragedy as you watch the unforgettable Jean Simmons.
Below is from the Daily Telegraphs' Homage to Jean Simmons:
From a nice film tribute to Simmons:
"It is debatable whether any actress ever portrayed a better combination of strength and vulnerability than Jean Simmons. The beautiful British-born actress got her start at age 14 and, like Elizabeth Taylor and Natalie Wood, dazzled from the beginning, landing her first big role as young Estella in the best screen version of Great Expectations in 1946."

Sky Saxon and Arthur Lee - R.I.P.
I can't believe I just heard of Sky Saxon's transcention - I'll use his own beliefs, since he was a truly cosmic soul and a huge force, as was Arthur Lee, in music.
All our music.
From the mid sixties, these two giants weren't household names, but both were pivotal in the ovement music took.
Simple turns of fate brought both of these remarkable talents to less-than-famous paths and weirdly, both died while in plans for new come-back tours.
In case you're either too arrogant, if you're musicians, to look back and to know the originators of the music we all play now or in case you're not into music, Arthur Lee was the lead singer and guitarist of Love and Sky Saxon was the leader and singer of The Seeds.
Look up their music, and, in the case of Sky Saxon, who was a fruititarian and an advanced soul, his life philosophy.
Both very cool icons who deserve to be applauded posthumously.
And I think they'll both hear us.

So, I'm happy to share what I've been lucky enough to learn along the way in How To Be Hot.
It is available here : Ebookize.com, so indulge your senses, get ready for an entertaining and fun guide to becoming more attractive, happy, healthy, and cosmic, and join the Hot Mailing List, too!

Twittering, Twitching, Blogging, and Verbally Flogging, Trodding, Plodding, and Becoming Blithering Idiots
A very urgent matter needs your attention - Please visit MerHorses now and continue to the Humane Society page where you can send an email to save Horses!
Compulsively expressing ourselves - millions of us.
And with Twitter - it's moment-by-moment, mood, just tiny phrases-ful of notions - and it's quite addictive!
It seems we can all be summed up in tiny sound-bytes.
Just a nuance, a nano-sentence needed to sum us up.
On Twitter, only a sentence to sum up one's whole self - one's life.
Fragmented, shattered, streamlined, and that's what we all are - in the end, at least - on our tombstones, if we're lucky enough to have one - it might read only stats, like name, and dates between which we'd once existed.
Meanwhile, we live between the fragments flung outward into the internetted abyss for whomever to view, to care, to share, observe, judge, like, dislike, follow, take up, drop, commiserate, and so on - but mainly in order to self-promote.
Everyone's selling something, even if only ideas - peddling maybe only thoughts - like bubbles - popping off to no one and to everyone at once.
Who's listening? No one. We're all too busy expressing ourselves.
It seems.
