If not, he appears to be exhibiting signs of hittin’ the pipe. Now, I can’t comment on whether or not this is related to his love of licking crack…that is another story.

Anyway, the following is yet another attempt by the Clintons to smear Obama:

Bill Clinton Accuses Obama Camp of Stirring Race Issue

By KATHARINE Q. SEELYE

Published: January 24, 2008

KINGSTREE, S.C. — Former President Bill Clinton defended himself Wednesday against accusations that he and his wife had injected the issue of race into the Democratic presidential primary in South Carolina, and he accused Senator Barack Obama of Illinois of putting out a “hit job” on him. (click here for the full article).

Think about this and recent comments spewed by Bill Clinton. Now imagine these same comments were being made by the spouse of any other candidate in the race. Are you starting to see how ridiculous this is? Do Bill and Hillary really want to sling shit? If we are going to go way back, then let’s do it. Now, I am of the mind that it is impossible for a successful politician to maintain the same position on the same issues over time and avoid any sort of association with anyone who might be or become unsavory. Don’t get me wrong, I do believe that one should not knowingly have direct or indirect associations with the criminal element but most of us accept that at some point during a politician’s career, the criminal will seep into the sphere of influence, typically in a fine, tailored suit and tie, with checkbook in hand. All of this leads me to ponder about Whitewater and drops me square into the crotch of the Chinese donor whom I believe was accused of multiple felonies related to his fundraising on behalf of the Clintons. If I recall, he even tried to flee the country when charged. I will have to do some additional research to dig up these old stories.

It is my hope that anyone from any year who had any interaction with either Bill or Hillary Clinton that was illegal, possibly illegal, immoral, or simply less than presidential, now is the time to share it with the public. I don’t believe that any of us are perfect and all of us have done or said things in the past that we would change if given the opportunity to do so. But the Clintons are playing unfair and they should heed the old saying about “people who live in a glass house…”

What about the following rumor: Hillary Clinton is a lesbian.

I will have to do a bit of researc and pick up this alleged remor at a later date…

Oh, I forgot to mention that he is white! The incident occurred some time ago and is just making it into the mainstream media, likely because there is a civil lawsuit in play. Absolutely, the police, whom we entrust to protect and serve should not beat the shit out of anyone. They are (supposidly) trained to take you into custody alive or use deadly force when absolutely required. I am actually Ok with the deadly force part, when justified. The problem has become that all of the recent instances of alleged police abuse that have come to my attention don’t appear to be justified.

I will be the first to say that I do need glasses and the resolution on my new 52″ big-screen television might have a few fingerprints on it. Sure, my eyes could be deceiving me when I see multiple law enforcement officers beating the shit out of a single suspect. Just like Rodney King, there may very well be something going on right in front of my eyes that I am simply not processing….

Anyway, I am sorry to say that I am not too sympathetic to this guy, only because he is white and, frankly, black folks have the shit beat out of them (of they are lucky) and are oftentimes killed (if they are not so lucky) on a regular basis. Nobody seems to care, really. In fact, abusive law enforcement officers often get away with it, even when their illegal behavior is somehow captured on video. Don’t forget, there is a widely held belief that black folks are guilty until proven innocent.

If you happen to find the video online, please post the link here in a comment.

Just say this on NBC Channel 4 in Los Angeles, reported by Fred Roggan as sports news.  I have to start by saying that I am completely dumfounded by the rumor that Shaq’s wife was “stealing” money and assets from Shaq, which lead to the divorce in the first place!  With that level of income, they were alleged spending $22,000 per month for maid service alone!  Anyway, it is not completely surprising, given they way that it is rumored that Shaq “stole” her from her then husband.

Now I don’t know about you but for $22K per month, I am pretty well convinced that I could bring myself to clean up after the O’Neal family.  Afterall, he is not likely to piss on the toilet any more than any other man.  And I am sure that his skid marks are on par with any other man’s.  Think about it this way, most of us do the same housekeeping duties for nothing, complaining all the way.  Now obviously, if you are one of those bring home the bacon and fry it up in a pan women who are clocking big dollars, then by no means would the Shaq gig be a winning situation for you.

Just thought that I would share this…the income doesn’t astound me; rather, it is the amount that they are allegedly spending on maid service that caught my ear.
