Those that know me, know I am a comedian, radio personality, and daily columnist by trade. However, after what I witnessed last night, I have to diverge from my usual humorous writings and get this off my chest by saying now, THE...GLOVES...COME...OFF!!!
Message To Certain Republicans
How DARE you mock and belittle the work of community organizers. My father is a community organizer helping poor and homeless people get back on their feet and gain employment.
How DARE you mock the millions of people who roll their sleeves up every day to help make better the very community you were elected to serve. Here's a fact for you because you obviously don't know:
Dr. King was a community organizer
Robert F. Kennedy was a community organizer
Gandhi was a community organizer
Cesar Chavez was a community organizer
Your beloved Pat Robertson and John Hagee...guess what???? community organizers
And what's funny is EVERY politician is a community organizer. From organizing to community to vote for them, or to vote for a certain bill or legislation, to luncheons, rallies, and get out the vote drives. YOU ARE ALL COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS! But you have the unmitigated gall to degrade and push aside these great people for doing the exact same thing you did to get elected? The only difference is these people work in the community for the love of helping people and NOT for political gain. Gimme a friggin break.
So yes....THE...GLOVES....COME....OFF!!!
- It's ok for you to trash Hillary and the work she's done and say how bad she would be for the country, yet, when the media and everyone else questions Palin and her work, NOW we are sexist? So attacking our female candidate is fine and dandy but when the tables are turned, you pull out the sexist card. Questioning Palin's background and credentials could not possibly have anything to do with her applying for the 2nd highest position in the land. Our motives MUST be sexist. I mean, it's ok for you to even drag Obama's name, reputation, and accomplishments through the mud because according to you, "He's new and no one knows him," but once someone even questions Palin's credentials, they are sexist. Gimme a friggin break. (I'm an Obama supporter by the way, but I call B.S. when I see it.)
- When the National Enquirer broke the news about the Edwards scandal, you praised the magazine for journalistic integrity and great reporting. Now, when the magazine says it will expose Palin for cheating on her husband and abusing her Mayoral office, the National Enquirer is just some two-bit skanky gossip rag. Again, it's roses and butterflies when our candidates get called out, but when it's one of yours, you cry foul. Gimme a friggin break!!!
I have too many more points to let loose on so I won't bore you, but I had to get this off my chest. From a guy who's job it is to make people laugh, I had to let it be known that I am mad as hell, and I'm not gonna take it anymore!!!
And for those who think this diary should be deleted, or I'm a troll, or that I should just stick to radio and never write another diary, well, in the immortal words of Socrates, "Kiss my - once again inspired, going to knock on every door and make every phone call and hit every street and round up every donation I can - ASS!" At least I think that was Socrates.
