Am I wrong for knowing that the poor, the struggling, the strinking middle class actually deserves healthcare, deserves to be able to live, to care for their families?

Am I wrong for knowing that people regardless of color, sexual attraction, gender, or any of the other countless ways we divide ourselves, deserve to be treated equally, accepted by the law, regardless of what some 2000 year old religion claims. 

Am I wrong for knowing that the have's have a responsiblity for the have-nots, and that everyone needs some encouragement and a helping hand sometimes. 

 Am I wrong for knowing that alot *not all* of the screaming and yelling over President Obama's policies are because of his color and because some think he is evil because of what they think he believes. Because a great deal of his policies are similar if not exactly like policies tossed around by white politicans *and acutally had a great deal of people behind them*, and because Republicans outright know that we need reform in our financial sector and refuse to do it because they want the evil "Muslim Black Man" to fail.  A quick glance at the signs folks carry during Tea Party rallies shows this thinking. 

Am I wrong for knowing that when people say America doesn't want change they are full of shit, because groups like the Tea Party only represents a fraction of the population and not even a large enough portion to put someone like Sarah Palin in office.

Am I wrong for knowing that when people say the Tea Party is leaderless they are full of shit?  When all they are doing by saying that is removing themselves from responsiblity for the outright hate filled individuals who want nothing more than to lynch every minority in America and the world in general.

Am I wrong for knowing that America is sinking fast and people are too selfish and lazy *hell bent on only caring about themselves until their precious Jesus returns to take them away* and actually having the balls to admit it?

NO. America is falling, we are like the Titanic everyone said it wouldn't sink, and then a giant ass iceberg came along and beat the shit out of it. Our iceberg is called stupidity.  And everyday America is inching closer and closer to it.

Think ladies and gentlemen, that is all I ask. Think about what those around you are saying, think about your fellow man, care damnit, just fucking care.  I've read comments on various news postings with folks saying they have hope because the exterme far right are getting older and closer to death.  But that doesn't mean they can't completely fuck up America before then!! And they will ladies and gentlemen they will if we let them.

If we let them gays will have to wait even longer to serve openly, more invasive laws will be passed to make it diffcult for women to excerise their right to choice, our education system will tank even more with a complete rewritting of history and science. It's our generations job to show that we want change, we want the world to move forward, we aren't happy with the rich getting richer and the poor straving, we aren't happy with people not being able to read, and kids learning garabage in schools, we aren't happy with folks being mistreated just because of who they love.

We are a nation of multi-colors, multi-beliefs, multi-genders, and multi-ways of getting down. And damnit it's time we GOT LOUD!!

I talked to Mike about where I'm at and what I want to add to our lives. He said he was cool with whatever as long as I didn't put a caludron in the middle of the living room. I don't think I would ever take it that far.

I don't believe in gods and godesses. I believe that I am the marker of my own future. That it is far better to be positive and put positivity into the world then to put forth negativity. I enjoy rituals, I enjoy the thought of making my home a sacred place for our family (sacred in a more secular since, not in a god sense). I'm a jumble of stuff.

But I am who I am and that's all that I am. ;)

Yes we get old school Popeye episodes.

....I will forever be a fan. My voice is cracking now, but it was so worth it.

I'm so going to renew my LP Underground membership if they come back so I can hopefully get back stage!!


"Say something that you know they might attack you for...
Cause I'm sick of being treated like I have before
Like I'm stupid standing for what I'm standing for..."

Seriously what the hell is up with all the MJ shit. I thought I had slept through it all, but OH NO!! It's so damn sad. Actual news channels are playing this crap over and over again. EGH.  Seriously does no one see the whole kids crying on the stage as pure fucking explotation? Or is it just me?  I don't care how great Thiller was, he was clearly distrubed and not someone who should to be taking up my news outlets!!  I love how desperate people are for something or someone to worship. They will clearly ignore some of the most sick behavior ever known to man in order to have their fantasy. People make me want to puke. Fuck these losers. I swear I need to leave this damn planet. When are we building a base on Mars? I'm so out of here.

This shit is funny!

That bitch really has nothing else better to do than to make everyone elses life hell.  So we get to my dad's place and he wasnt there which we knew he wouldnt be he was tying up some loose ends at work so he could spend the whole week with the boys.  And we are downstairs in the basement minding our own business and she calls me upstairs wanting to talk.  And then she starts in just like she use to, and it pissed me off, but I didn't flip.  I tried to speak my peace and when she wouldnt let up I told her I would be talking to my father but I wasnt going to stay there (which is want that hateful bitch wanted anyways but Im not going to have my children in an environment where someone has a problem with them because their father is white, and because she doesnt want anyone to be happy because she hates herself) Anyways I meet my dad at foodlion with mike and the boys and told him what happened and that I wont be kissing her ass, Im too old to be dealing with middle school drama, and he took us to a hotel (just like he had to do his white mother, im seeing a trend arent you??) And so here I am trying to be the bigger person trying to move on with life and ignorant people are stilling fucking with me.  Honestly if I had been the old Rayven I would have smashed her head in like I was picturing in my head, I hate that bitch I dont know why my father stays with her.  Im just going to let my dad spend time with my boys, board the fucking plane to Japan and not look back.  Honestly that bitch is pissed because we were here over the summer and now we are back, are you fucking kidding me, we are going to be gone for 4 fucking years, just because your daughter wants nothing to do with you doesnt mean everyone is that fucking way.  Miserable bitch, go jump in fucking traffic and I hope a fucking bus full of white homosexuals hits you, and you die a slow and painful death surrounded by biracial drs and nurses.  Bitch!

I'm SOOOOO glad they didn't win!! I would have been on the back of the bus in NO time!!
