"Yes'm, Ms. Waltas...I beez cleanin' wit' a smile on ma face..mmmhmmm yes'm"

What in tarnation has gotten into you, Sherri Shepherd!!


I know Whoopi, took off those shades, started to say something, and instead chose to shake her head.

I hope after the ceremony, she took u into a closet and shook the ish out of you, too!!

This is what i get for trying to creep over to my blog mama's crib, Lynn of Hicktown Press!

I come across this mess! smh

I tell you right now, had I been in Hollywood (L.A., is my hometown) and witnessed that buffoonery--I'da sent up a post via my T-mobile Dash to YBR soliciting for bail money, cuz I done whooped up on some Sherri Shepherd for her mammy foolishness!!

If it's not enough that she's grinning like a cheshire cat, it's a) she has an 'amn-da' (remember Pig Latin??) toothbrush and b) a copy of Wa-Wa got-dang book at her knees c) a book that exploits black folks, cuz otherwise no one would be interested in reading the snoozer!
Sherri?!

Do you honestly think she won't put your idiosyncracies in her next book????
U better check yourself!

HEFFA...what in Sam Blazes is wrong with you?? I mean seriously, job security is tight for the non-celebrity...but is it that serious that u have to skin & grin on ur knees in order to hold onto YOUR JOB?!

Sure..you've made stupid, idiotic, retarded remarks...but girl u don't have to trip unless your contract is up for renewal...
*silence*
IS it up for renewal??

U know what?
Even if it was..HAVE SOME DIGNITY 'BOUT URSELF, GIRL!!
Even Mammy from Gone With The Wind...put her foot down with Scarlett!
Remember the line, "I don't know nothin' 'bout birthin'no babies?!" And Mammy didn't volunteer to take lessons, either! lol


Sherry, you're a Christian.

Barbara Wa-Wa Confessed She Got Her Swirl On...

I admit it...this totally surprised me!

Ms. Barbara "I keeps it real, while keeping it cool" Walters, admitted during a taping of an Oprah Winfrey Show episode-that she got her interracial swirl on with a black senator, Edward Brooke, back in the '70's.

**ok, i just saw the senator's pic...he could definitely pass for white...so i can see why she went there-seriously**

Brooke then:

Senator Edward Brooke


Brooke now:
The image “http://www.urbanhealthcast.com/IAMMM/EdwardBrooke170.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Babs reluctantly ended the affair after a friend urged her to, and said it would destroy her career. What's a non-black woman to do in those times? End the affair.
He definitely was a looker...girlfriend had great taste.
So far there's no word from Brooke's camp...but really-what is there to say almost 40yrs later??
let sleeping dogs, and affairs lay.

I just don't like when people 'air their dirty panties' as a promotional tool.
Babs has a book coming out, called "Audition" and I guess she decided to throw everyone a bone so we can get the book. I'm not an autobiography book fan, but I might check it out at the library...only bcuz i know soooo little about Babs.

Are YOU going to read the book??

Judiciary Committee Convenes in the Jena 6 case







Pointed Testimony, Emotional Exchanges Mark Congressional Hearing on Jena Six Case source

Jena, Louisiana is a town that has been crippled by racial tension, and it will not heal until there is justice for the Jena Six, the local NAACP president told the House Judiciary Committee on Tuesday.

The Rev. Bryan Moran and several other witnesses testifying before the panel called on the federal government to intervene to protect those hurt “by an unjust criminal justice system.”

“In Jena, two systems of justice exist. That is no longer acceptable,” Moran said.
The four-hour hearing, which Chairman John Conyers (pictured above, far right) called the first of its kind since he’s been in the House, was filled with emotional pleas and pointed criticism of the U.S. Justice Department. Though many questions were raised, the day ended without solution.
Representatives of the U.S. Department of Justice did disclose for the first time, however, that information is being gathered for a possible probe into the justice system in Jena and LaSalle Parish.

Conyers, a Michigan Democrat, convened the hearing after nearly 50,000 people rallied in the tiny Louisiana town on Sept. 20 in support of the six black youths who face jail time as a result of a school fight with a white classmate in Dec. 4.
The fight followed months of tension at Jena High School, touched off by an Aug. 31. 2006 incident where nooses were hung in a tree after blacks sat in a traditional gathering place for whites.

The whites who hung the nooses were suspended for school for nine days and given in-school suspension as well, according to testimony at the hearing. The black students were kicked out of school, and they were arrested on charges of attempted murder with bond set as high as $130,000.

Committee members and witnesses took issue with the handling of justice in Jena. J. Reed Walters, the LaSalle Parish district attorney, was invited to the hearing, but declined the invitation. He is the one who leveled the charges against the Jena Six.

“It is illegal under our Constitution to have one stand of justice for white citizens and another more harsh standard for African-Americans,” Conyers said. “Our committee is going to look at similar situations in Georgia, Texas, California, and across the country."

***
the fact that John Conyers has become so involved is comforting.
Being from Detroit, I know that Conyers is a man of conviction (as his wife, who looks like she'd cut you if you said something wrong . She's been known to cuss folks out, while the cameras rolling!), as
well as very vocal about racial relations. (Michigan is an extremely racist state)
This will be interesting.
