As a Bush hater I must say I am beginning not to be much of a Obama lover. He compromises too much and has apparently let Goldman Sachs take over the Treasury Dept. Can we ever not be at war, get universal health care, take real measures to lead the world in renewable energy, end traditional schooling, make college accessible to everyone, quit worrying about big gov’t and end big business? Or is all that just too much for the most prosperous country ever?

Oh yeah and maybe we should redefine what it means to be liberal or progressive. I label myself as an independent but still you can’t call yourself liberal or progressive if you vote down gay marriage(New York &California) and busing to desegregate (Seattle). The political spectrum has really become tainted. People think a public OPTION with an opt out for states is liberal! That is a clear center-right policy. Rachel Maddow did a great job breaking it down. Liberal is what Canada and the UK have. A public option is centrist. The democratic party is center-right as Bill Maher said, and the Republicans should be replaced by the gang of 4: Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Joseph Cao, and Ron Paul. I don’t agree with them on everything but they represent the people and are reasonable.

Yes. Beautiful voice. Thoughtful lyrics.

Question: Would anyone still be talking about Kanye West if not for his narcissistic and childish outbursts?

Wouldn’t it be great if 50 Cent’s music were still as entertaining as his extracurricular activities?

I don’t find his music or extracurricular activities entertaining anymore. What the hell happened to him? This can’t be the same guy to wrote “How To Rob.” I want grimy but clever from him not and rich and horny. verything since his first album has been such a yawn.

Cosign booklover17, I was a fan of 50 until he got signed but since then I just can’t listen to him at all.

Marc your perspective on The Blind Side is kind of disappointing. Did you the book Michael Oher wrote that is the basis of the film? I have read so many articles with people sharing the same viewpoint that his story is another in a line of films that show white people in a savior role with a black character but its clear to me that the critics never read his book. Why are none of the critics upset that he had nowhere to turn when he was at his worst struggles? People want to get mad because a white family helped him make it but why isn’t anyone upset that there was not one black family who were willing to do the same? If anything his story should motivate black folks to look for the potential in each other not just who you think a person is at one moment in time. It’s so easy to look at the Tuhoy’s with disdain when they stepped up when everyone else in Michael’s life turned him away.
