Thank You: CBC & Congresswomen Maxine Waters, Barbara Lee and Sheila Jackson Lee

Thank You for having tough skin and not letting this mainstream media suck you in.  I agree the President came off like one of us a man who cares, a man who is aware and so passionate, like something you do not normally see or hear and if we don’t get on board we will really be pulling out hairs. 
Thank you for not giving into the headlines like Tavis Smiley who has seemed to do a lot of the whining.  Message to Tavis, in case you did not read my blog to Dr. West, when you go around talking about the President is not supporting the Black Community, that is a lie, it is also a form of complaining because you are upset with him for whatever reason other than what you are really complaining about or as you try to change it to, grieving about. 
This is the time to let things play out and not get into a bout with the one person who is truly trying to help us out.  It is ok, to complain if you Gay or Jew, or just being you Tavis Smiley, but the things that I have been hearing you complain about is not worth the breath you spout.  Please stop this nonsense trying to put our President in a pinch.  As if you are the only one who really don’t understand, and please don’t blame this on being a Black man.  
Like Congresswoman Sheila said "Start using positive words" like -Yes We Can.

Particle Travel Faster Than Light Year, That's Right- Possibilities-

It's this change I see, could it be –Possibilities or will it be that President isn't for me; he has done nothing, See!!  Things like this, we forget. like the kind that happens in DC and now some regret.
 We have to stop being so easy to fall prey to their underhanded ways.
Let’s not forget the fight the Latinos Teachers pitched-Safe School , created 0 incidents since.  As they march & cry for Unity and Peace to only 2 Live---------in Harmony. 
As some of these Evil Doers, do understand; some may be a family man.  Either way all know what they do is wrong, especially when it hits home.
 I’m asking all the Gangs and Drug Lords, what every negative, robbing, dirty underhanded group you are in, especially the ones that are hurting our teacher and kids, as they, or we struggle to live, to please stop your violent ways so that a Bright Future will be our most days and figure out a way to do business without jealousy, envy or hatred or anything of the sort.
 
Either figure out a way to accepted your loses peacefully or be prepared to have the Law knocking at your door and you on the floor.  Because, you are in a new era, the Changes have started to Grow and We The People Are Saying No.   We do not attend to let you kill it or us.  I don’t care about your business or how you do things other than you are hurting our Future, our Dreams, and most of all Your Own People.
  
Yep, I know I am asking something Crazy and maybe farfetched, but even though I am not a gambling man, here is where I place my Bet. J,” but you never know until you asked. I love this quote. Its’ not complicated, it’s just MathJ.  The more people you hurt, the more time you would add in preventing us from reaching our Dream maybe quicker than one imaging.

I believe there is enough to go around, so stop letting your soul and your self-worth, be controlled by Fashion and gets you down.  I’m just Asking.

Troy Davis-paid a great price with his life MoPoDC

Troy Davis,

A man who paid a great price with his life.  My heart goes out to his family and I want to thank NAACP and Michael Baisden Show and all of the people that spoke on the show ESP Yeoman for laying it out so nicely.
  
I agree with all of you, that Capital Punishment needs to be abolished.
 One thing we could do is create a petition to start trying to abolish the Death Penalty lets used Troy Davis death as a propeller to have this abolished in each State. 

This is another case where we have to stick together for people like Troy Davis so that his Death is not in vain.

My quote of the day: Because of human flaw and corrupt law the Death penalty has to go in each State Esp for innocent people that have to wait. MoPoDC

Dr Cornel West-We Are One MoPoDC

Mr Cornel West, I have always been a fan.  I have always had much respect for you and what you do for the Black Community.  So, please don’t take these words the wrong way.  
As a Dr. I assumed that you were already aware of the propaganda that is currently being spread concerning our President Obama.
           On Top of this, you are on CNN telling the World, but you may think that you are only talking to the Black communityJ,” that the President is turning his back on the Black community” or something to that affect,
 Because he  is not doing the things in the order that you would like or jumping at your command because your helped him get elected.  At least that’s sort of what I’m hearing. 

Nevertheless, deep in your heart, you know you are wrong.  I could share some examples why that is wrong, but I really believed you already knew the answer.

However, I do owe you an apology, for calling you “A disgrace to the Black race”. Because I really assumed you realized how dangerous that would be to the American People.  But then, you  where are on CNN telling everyone “that you are looking for someone  oh, another Demarcate, to run  against him”, and that your reasoning for voting  for the President in “08 “  is because he was the only other  choice",                                  this is after you and the President are giving each other’s Hugs , -things - that make you say hummmm!J.   
To me that seemed like an underhanded downright deceiving thing to do too anyone, let alone the President of the United States, but you may only see it as “just a Black Man”- “New flash”,
This is bigger than that; this is bigger than President Obama, because President Obama can only do four more years.
          What the President is doing and has done has helped inspire a lot of people, people in all kinds of positions.  He has brought about a positive change more so, a renowned Respect to this country- tis- of- the.  He has done this during the bad times, with a bad economy and at the same time champion Peace at home and abroad.
That is either unheard of or has not been done often.  I can go on and on but   I‘m going to just ask you to really reread this blog and think about your actions, do you really feel  like being part of the people that are trying to sabotage us?  –One Luv Brother- MoPoDC

Are You Going To Let Them Take Your Voice & Your Vote Away? Call of Action

Have you heard the same people that are robbing this country blind have gone above and beyond to make sure your voice or vote does not count?  They are changing the rules so that we look like fools.  So, I would like to ask  all Parties that think everyone voice should count or want to see America prosper to stand up and help us get all the changes from each state and share them with your local representative or me.

We have to fight just as hard as they are willing to fight to be unfair every step of the way. 
If there are new proposals that we can write to counter their proposals then let’s get on top of it now.   We need to ask all Leaders in each state to step up their game.


Enough is enough we can’t keep losing to their unethical ways and not do anything about it.  If any of you truly care about our country, you will help.  I don’t care what you political party is.  I am talking those who love this country and believe in the possibilities that we can achieve so long as we do the things we need to do to combat these negative and  deceitful ways of operating.  This fight is for our future and our kid’s future.  Senior Citizen, Teachers, Veterans, and  Military branches, College kids, Kids about to graduate from high school, and middles class, poor class whatever class this fight is your just as much as it is my fight. 


Please stand with me on this by getting the word out of all the changes as soon as you hear about them where ever you live in the United States.

As the President said this morning, "This is not class warfare -- it's math."


Friend --

This morning, the President proposed the "Buffett Rule," which would require those earning more than $1 million a year to pay the same share of their income in taxes as middle-class families do.

This proposal makes sure millionaires and billionaires share the responsibility for reducing the deficit. It would correct, for example, the fact that Warren Buffett's secretary currently pays taxes at a higher rate than he does.

The other side is already saying it's "class warfare" -- that's their rhetorical smokescreen for providing millionaires and billionaires special treatment.

As the President said this morning, "This is not class warfare -- it's math."

The wealthiest Americans don't need further tax cuts and in many cases aren't even asking for them. Requiring that they pay their fair share is the only practical way forward. The Republican alternative is to drastically slash education, gut Medicare, let roads and bridges crumble, and privatize Social Security. That's not the America we believe in -- but many in the Republican leadership actually prefer those policies, which explains their refusal to act.

That's why they'll say "tax increase" over and over again, trying to muddy the waters and trick ordinary Americans into thinking the Buffett Rule will hurt them. And if we don't speak out right now, they just might get away with it.

If you stand with President Obama in this fight and want to see the Buffett Rule passed -- say you'll get his back now.

Of course, the Buffett Rule won't really touch most Americans -- only 0.3% of households will even be affected.

And without it, the only way to reduce our debt is to savage the programs that seniors and middle-class families rely on.

That's exactly what the President refuses to do -- in fact, he's said he'll veto any bill that changes benefits for folks who rely on Medicare but doesn't raise serious revenue by asking the wealthiest Americans or biggest corporations to pay their fair share.

This isn't just a commonsense approach to cutting the deficit -- it's the only way to make sure we can provide security to people who work hard and play by the rules.

So right now, I'm asking you to say you'll stand with the President on something that won't be easy. Get the President's back today:

Subject: What's at stake- Kaine for Virginia


Thanks so much for signing Governor Kaine’s petition urging Congress to stop with the political gamesmanship and fund disaster relief efforts. But we need your help to spread the word.
According to the Associated Press, "the government’s main disaster relief fund is on track to run dry" by next week. In Louisa County, Virginia, alone, last month's earthquake caused more damage than the entire non-capital county budget for 2011-2012. Now high school and middle school students can only attend classes two or three days per week because there aren't enough functioning classrooms.
Fortunately, the Senate passed bipartisan legislation last week to fund disaster relief efforts. But George Allen, Eric Cantor, and the Tea Partiers in the House of Representatives are holding funding hostage. These are the same folks who voted for two wars and tax cuts for millionaires without paying for any of it – and now they’re insisting on enacting more spending cuts before they’ll appropriate money to help those impacted by natural disasters.
Will you forward this message to your friends and family and ask them to click on this link and add their names to tell Congress not to hold disaster relief hostage in order to pursue an ideological agenda?
Thanks for your help.

Never Argue with a Woman :)


         Never Argue with a Woman
One morning, the husband returns the boat to their lakeside
cottage after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap.
 
Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out.
 She motors out a short distance, anchors, puts her feet up,
and begins to read her book.
 The peace and solitude are magnificent.

Along comes a Fish and Game Warden in his boat.
 He pulls up alongside the woman and says, 'Good morning, Ma'am. What are you doing?'  
'Reading a book,' she replies, (thinking, 'Isn't that obvious?')
 
'You're in a Restricted Fishing Area,' he informs her.

'I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading.'

'Yes, but I see you have all the equipment.
 For all I know you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up.'

'If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault,' says the woman.
 
'But I haven't even touched you,' says the Game Warden.
 
'That's true, but you have all the equipment..
For all I know you could start at any moment.'
 
'Have a nice day ma'am,' and he left.
 
MORAL:   
Never argue with a woman who reads.   
  It's likely she can also think.

I placed my call to this 202-224-3121 and follow the script below -Will You Do The Same? MoPoDC


The American Jobs Act is based on bipartisan proposals that everyone ought to be in favor of.
But it won't pass unless Republicans in Congress agree to act—and that's where you come in. If you have a Republican Senator or Representative, call them and ask them to pass the American Jobs Act.
You can call the Congressional switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask to speak to your representative.
Once you're done, take a moment to let us know how it went.
Sample Script:
Hello, my name is __________ and I'm a voter calling from __________ (your city or town).
I'm a voter who supports the American Jobs Act, and I'm asking my representative to back it, too.
Will you support the American Jobs Act?
(Allow them to respond)
Any member of Congress who backs these policies to get Americans back to work will have my thanks.

aurice --

Today, President Obama stood on the Brent Spence Bridge that connects Ohio to Kentucky and spoke about how the American Jobs Act could help rebuild that bridge and thousands like it, and put construction workers and manufacturers back to work.

It has been exactly two weeks since President Obama proposed the American Jobs Act -- a fully paid-for plan made up of ideas that both parties have endorsed in the past and ought to be able to get behind now. A wide majority of Americans who have heard about the Jobs Act want to see it passed right away.

But Congress has yet to take any action on it whatsoever.

There's no excuse for any more delays. The President is out there bringing this plan straight to the American people. It's on us to help put the pressure on Congress.

Call your Republican member of Congress now and tell them that taking action on jobs is too urgent for them to drag their heels any longer.

According to our records, you're represented in the House of Representatives by:

Frank Wolf: (202) 225-5136

We can all take two minutes to call our lawmakers right now. Tell them not to let politics get in the way of creating jobs -- and ask them to pass the American Jobs Act. Then click here to let us know how it went.

President Obama this week also outlined his plan to pay for the bill while still reducing our deficit. At the heart of the plan is the Buffett Rule, a commonsense principle that would require people earning more than $1 million a year to pay the same share of their income in taxes as middle-class families do.

If that's a proposal you think makes sense, it's time to let your Republican representative hear it.

Republicans have responded to the plan with more cries of "class warfare," a term that apparently applies when the President asks millionaires and billionaires to pay their fair share but not when Republicans cut urgently needed programs for middle-class families.

As the President said, this isn't class warfare -- it's simple math. If we want to reduce the deficit and put America back to work, we can't put the entire burden on the middle class. But we know that's exactly what congressional Republicans will do if we don't take action -- decimate programs seniors and families rely on, while protecting every loophole and giveaway for billionaires and big corporations.

None of us have time to sit around and wait while our lawmakers dig in for a political fight when there are reasonable solutions for creating jobs on the table right now.

As the President told Congress more a week ago, "this plan is the right thing to do right now. You should pass it. And I intend to take that message to every corner of this country. And I ask every American who agrees to lift your voice: Tell the people who are gathered here tonight that you want action now. Tell Washington that doing nothing is not an option. Remind us that if we act as one nation and one people, we have it within our power to meet this challenge."

He was talking to us, so let's do our job. Call your Republican legislator in Washington now -- and tell them it's time to pass this jobs bill.

Thanks,

Messina

This message is for you: Democratic Party & Jewish Community MoPoDC

I heard Baltimore had a local election but people were not happy with the options or didn’t know about the election so a Republican won.  I also heard in New York another Republican won for that area because the Democratic person that was running is Jewish and because he and the Jewish community are upset with the President they wanted to send him a message to teach him so kind of lession.    Another Democratic Senator saying that the Job Bill is too long so he doesn’t support it.  This message is for you:
It’s people like you who have given the Democratic Party a bad name.
All of you that think you are hurting the President by not getting involved or running for offices with false pretense are wrong.  The American people will suffer, our kids will suffer.  The time has come for all of you to put your ill will and jealousy aside and stand with the one person who seems to truly have the American people best interest in mind.  The only way we the American people can win is if we stick together.  We need people in office that have a passion to help our teachers, our schools, and our kids to have a brighter future.  We need people that understand that this is bigger than us or our President.  This is the change we have been longing for and we do not need Politician whores who sell their souls for more.  Let’s go back to the good ole President Jimmy Carter days were the dollar bill was not the true measure of your ways.

The American people asked for something Big from our President Barack Obama

Great interview- See below, now it’s time to see who really wants to see us, Americans prosper.  The American people asked for something big from our President Barack Obama and he came big.  The only hold up seems to be Congress signing the bill into action.  I’m asking everyone to pay close attention to what is about to happen now.

We are the ones who can affect the change by calling, writing & twitting our Congress person to act. Oh, maybe not twitter, because some have signed off of twitter. I wonder why?  Things that make you go hummmm.  Let them know that we need something now.  If not, we need people in office of like minded that wants to help our Country & our people succeed.   Like when President Bush Jr. was in office, the word at the time after 9/11 was if he fails we  America failed. One of the major differences now is that we have a Black President in office that seem like he really wants to help America be what  it was supposed to be. Should we apply that same rule of thumb  today like others did then?  Meaning, if you do not support this bill and his effort to get this economy going then you would be seen as Un-Americans.  If you are Un-Americans, than you should not hold an office in America.  At least that was the consensus when President Bush Jr, was in office.  Just a thought.

Changing The World Together

I remember when I first signed up for social media and the type of conversations and discussions that everyone was having.  I remember someone posting a quote on twitter that Love will conquer all and my response was we will see or in other words, time will tell.
Now I see and hear more and more people giving Honor to God on Face book and Twitter.  I see more and more people getting involved and trying to help.  Shout outs to Larry Power in Fresno County for giving up his salary to save jobs, and Ed on MSNBC and the volunteers in New Orleans for the free clinic  and Melissa and Rachel MSNBC for addressing the  Congressional Black Caucus march for jobs initiative and Rep Kirsten Gillibrand Bushwick   and   Community High School for helping our youth in New York and Joseph Lewis in New York and Velda Fleming in VA for project Not In My Hood, and all the other volunteers that are giving their time to help others.
You are the ones that put a smile on my face and give me hope that we shall overcome.  Thank you for what you are doing and have done.  
Hurricane Irene AKA Tropical Storm did a lot of damages to a lot of people, no matter what parties they belong to.  We all are affected by the storm.  It’s seemed as if it isn’t one thing it’s another.
Like the ones who wants to cut FEMA.  FEMA is supposed to help when we encounter disaster, but with what Eric Canter and party are requesting to make cuts even though they have utilized the government’s services more than anyone.  It’s as if they want all of us to live in constant turmoil.
Well, I am awake now, and it seems like more and more people eyes are being opened
The sad part is I don’t believe we have seen the last of the selfishness and greed of heartless people.    We may have a bigger fight ahead especially with this new bill the president signed during the Debt Ceiling issue.  Concerning the new group that they have established, if both parties can’t agree, then everything across the board could be cut. 
I am tired of certain people thinking they can do whatever they want because we are too dumb or lazy to care.  If we don’t change our people in office, then we better prepare for hell because that is what we may get with all this cutting sh! t. Even though they know we need this to grow in order to succeed, it still doesn’t over ride their greed.  So it up to you and me. 
The President keeps taking about Congress and if they come together after their extensive vacation, if they change their ways, then we will have a better day.  But what the President is not saying is what happens if they don’t change their ways.  Are we prepared to deal with the outcome?  Is he prepared to really and truly stand up and do whatever it takes to defend those that are not wealth?  Elections are right around the corner, and if we put people in office that will listen and fight for us, I believe those that lose their seat, will be able to see but only if it comes from you and me standing strong and working together to achieve peace and equality.
This is the time to be Solid more than ever, as a group and as We the People. 
We have to decide if we are going to coast and become ghost or show them that we mean business and their butts are toast.  We The People keep doing whatever it takes to keep the devil away.
Keep in mind, that there is always more we can do to help me and you.  Let’s be creative and show them, how it’s done with funJ
One Luv from above.
Sincerely Maurice Bryant AKA MoPoDC
