The song is about a man who was having a romantic affair with ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) I have a confession to make: I hate the pseudo-conservative scribblings of David French with the same kind of smoldering loathing I reserve for foot fungus, movies about spunky young women who triumph over the patriarchy, and the music of Maroon 5. With rare exceptions explicable due only to ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) No I am not on drugs. No I am not Cointel Pro nor a coon with Stockholm Syndrome – unlike the 18 year old African American boy who hugged the white female ex-cop in court who killed his brother, the black female bailiff who fixed her hair nor the ...
(ThyBlackMan.com) All the Democrats have to do is act sane, for a little while, to have a chance at holding the House and winning the Senate and White House. It’s not a tall order – don’t be a drooling fool arguing with a mailbox and you have an even shot ...

(ThyBlackMan.com) Great political quote from the late Harry Truman: “An honest public servant can’t become rich in politics.
