Crossposted from TabithaHale.com This post was brought to my attention today by several women who were obviously incensed by Stacy McCain’s statements. Here is the what I see as the heart of the initial post: If you tumble into a random hook-up with no prior knowledge of the guy’s reputation and he turns out to […]

It has taken me two days to respond to: this: Ever committed to preserving the dignity of Black men in a world which constantly stereotypes them as violent savages, I viewed this writing as yet one more opportunity to fight “the man” on behalf of my brothers. That night, before I could finish the piece, I […]

In light of GeicoGate and the recent accusations from the media regarding the violent rhetoric of the conservative movement, I’ve taken the liberty of editing together the voicemails and emails we’ve received as a result of DC Douglas’ call to contact FreedomWorks. Here’s the result. WARNING: This is intense. Violent language is an understatement. I […]

This video just boggles my mind. He doesn’t know the difference between the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. “Where in the Constitution does it give you the authority to…” “I don’t know. I don’t know.” And then he pretends to be insulted when they call him a liar. Because he is. And then he […]

Crossposted from TabithaHale.com We recently received this call from an “anonymous source”, if you will. Sheer brilliance. Click to listen.: Do it. Now. Some money quotes: “Be careful what you wish for – the right to bear arms means that everyone: can bear arms.” “We will be fighting you to the death.” “I’m so glad that I […]

I came to DC almost 7 months ago. Sometimes it feels like an eternity. Sometimes it feels like I’m still not really here… like I’m just visiting a place I never really wanted to be in the first place. I hate Washington, DC and what it represents. I walked through this city as a tourist […]

FreedomWorks is calling everyone that is able to Washington, DC on March 16th, 2010 for one more push against Obamacare. We will meet at the Cannon building at 9am and speak with as many representatives as possible, encouraging them to vote NO on this version of health care reform.

So I’m back… and I’m relaunching my podcast with a recap of my Haiti trip. No guests – just a 30 minute stroll through my head. Talking about people, places… and how I may or may not be wanted by Haitian officials. ;) Also, we will be testing out a vodcast, which will be up […]

Yesterday we went to a small village called Citae outside of Jacmel. The journey there was an adventure in and of itself — there really aren’t any roads by American standards, more like paths wide enough for a car to get through. We drove through 3 rivers to get there, passing huts filled with women […]

Yesterday morning was spent at the Sisters of Charity orphanage in Jacmel, Haiti. I was told going in that they follow the “Mother Teresa” model — in other words, they only take the poorest of the poor and the sickest of the sick. We were going specifically to hold babies. The babies we were visiting […]

Crossposted from tabithahale.com As I said a couple hours ago, we headed to Sisters of Charity — a Catholic orphanage in Jacmel. The babies there, predictably, broke my heart. There were children that had to be at least 2 and a half years old… who don’t really walk. Babies that are two, that look like […]

Crossposted from TabithaHale.com I got to Jacmel today. We left Miami early this morning and flew in to Port au Prince. I’m not sure what I expected — but the scene at the airport was crazy. I was told that it wasn’t all that different from normal. The gates were completely swamped with people — […]

Posted from TabithaHale.com. If you follow me on Twitter or are a Facebook friend, you know how completely obsessive I’ve been about the disaster in Haiti. I have been watching every news report I can find and have wept over photos. I want nothing more than to get on a plane and go down there. […]

So here we are in 2010. I’ll be the first to say that I am not the least bit sorry to say goodbye. As painful and crazy as it was – both personally and politically – it was in many ways the start of something bigger than I could have imagined… as well as a […]

Crossposted at TabithaHale.com Hey y’all! quick run down on what’s coming up in the health care reform battle. Not a lot going on, but on Jan. 6th when the House comes back, it’s going to be messy. Don’t get lazy now. ;)
