You Think What?

In recent weeks the Department of Homeland Security gave warning of the possibility of violent right wing activity increasing because of the down economy.

Just as the warning of an attack in September of 2001 was ignored by our government, so this one, too, was ignored. Fortunately the loss of life was not in great numbers. We believe the loss of one life is one death too many. It is unacceptable to allow a violent wrong wing extremist to attack. (more…)

Three months ago, under the guidance of Demetricia Patterson, Consignment Furniture Etc. opened its doors with its mission to provide one half of the profits toward funding a foundation which gives drug assistance to senior citizens.

Where can a young male between the ages of eleven years-old and 18 years-old, in the Daytona Beach, Florida area go this summer for interesting educational field trips, tutoring in science, math, reading and writing?

As if it weren’t enough to know the banks are getting our money to do with as they please, not as they promised when they came to the government hat in hand; or as we like to say in the Southern parts of the United States, “Hand full of gimme and mouth full of much obliged”, those banking bastids, or financial skanks are set to make even more money from the misfortune of others, which they in part caused.

Blanche Africa Reilly Dark, mother of our own ace investigative reporter Clark Dark, is our contributing writer today with a few words about her displeasure with America’s first African-American president.

He’s everyone’s son; or what every mother hopes her son will be. They are both wonderful role models, and our young people can never have enough of those with or without the obvious role models, moms and dads, in the home.

Over the last few days we’ve been all a twitter about Judge Sotomayor, the female jurist who will become the first Latina on The Supreme Court, President Obama’s first judicial appointment since taking office. It’s all very historic. It’s simply wonderful! (more…)
