(Video) Elizabeth Dowling Taylor X Jon Stewart X @TheDailyShow X A Slave In the White House (Paul Jennings)
She tells the story of Paul Jennings, who served as one of James Madison's slaves and ultimately purchased his own freedom.
I think folks forgot that some of our PRESIDENTS had slaves.... very interesting.
ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL EH? Remember, the CONSTITUTION was in FULL EFFECT.....
Moment of the Video:
EDT- "You know, when I approach a book like this, my particular objective is to neither to defend or nor to denounce. I just really want to tell Paul Jennings story..."
JS: Yeah...."THAT'S NOT GONNA FLY in this..environment.. Unfortunately, I'm afraid you're gonna have to be a little bit more partisan...."
EDT (Doubles over in laughter)

(Video) Hank Williams Jr. pulled from Monday Night Football lead for comments on President Obama...
Now I am neither SHOCKED NOR SURPRISED that Hank Williams Jr. feels this way. What I want to know is why Disney owned ESPN didn't know he felt this way. I'm no country music guru but I have heard ENOUGH OF HANK WILLIAMS JR'S music to know where he stands politically. He makes no secret to me. I almost don't see the issue with this. Almost I said. I mean he is ENTITLED TO FEEL HOW HE FEELS. I don't agree with it but like I said, outside of MNF theme haveaboutthismuchuseforHANKWILLIAMSMUSIC. No skin off of my back if he doesn't like The President. (shrugs) @ comparing him to Hitler. It was a dumb comparison but yeah...I don't really give a shit. I have compared Hank Williams Jr. to MANY STEREOTYPICAL THINGS. He just lived up to one of them with that statement....

A look at a VERY DIFFERENT Miami back in 1979....We all have seen Scarface but this is the REAL happenings...videos..
Even the reporter said she wouldn't ride around Miami-Dade unless she was two guns deep...Damm.....
An ENTIRE CLASS OF POLICE OFFICERS were either dead or suspended from duty? Welp....That's how bad they needed cops on the streets. Most of what I am speaking on is in the second video but the first one is dope too.
Here is the beginning of that Time Magazine article....
November. The days grow short, the nights cold. Time to reach for that travel brochure for, where else, South Florida, America's favorite winter playground. Hmmm, let's see now. Here is a picture of palm trees swaying gently under a cottony blue sky while a family frolics in the foamy surf. Here is a snowy white heron flitting along a river of sea grass in the Everglades, the mangrove and palmetto serene as a Sunday morning. There is a creamy stucco Palm Beach mansion, its red tile roof glinting fiercely in the sun and bougainvillea rioting, colorfully in the yard. And, of course, a couple of sunburned senior citizens of Miami Beach, he in a Hawaiian shirt and she in purple culottes, waiting their turn on the shuffleboard court.
Those snapshots of life in South Florida are as accurate today as they were a generation ago. But they are being crowded out by some altogether different scenes, a collection of photos not found in any Chamber of Commerce travel brochure. Here is a picture of a policeman leaning over the body of a Miamian whose throat has been slit and wallet emptied. There is a sleek V-planed speedboat, stripped of galleys and bunks and loaded with a half-ton of marijuana, skimming across the waters of Biscayne Bay. Here are a handful of ragged Cuban refugees, living in a tent pitched beneath a highway overpass.
South Florida—that postcard corner of the Sunshine State, that lush strip of hibiscus and condominiums stretching roughly from Palm Beach south to Key West—is a region in trouble. An epidemic of violent crime, a plague of illicit drugs and a tidal wave of refugees have slammed into South Florida with the destructive power of a hurricane. Those three forces, and a number of lesser ills, threaten to turn one of the nation's most prosperous, congenial and naturally gorgeous regions into a paradise lost.
Consider what South Florida is up against:
> When the FBI issued its annual list of the ten most crime-ridden cities in the nation last September, three of them were in South Florida: Miami (pop. 347,000) was in first place, West Palm Beach (pop. 63,000) was fifth and Fort Lauderdale (pop. 153,000) was eighth. Miami last year had the nation's highest murder rate, 70 per 100,000 residents, and this year's pace has been even higher.
> An estimated 70% of all marijuana and cocaine imported into the U.S. passes through South Florida. Drug smuggling could be the region's major industry, worth anywhere from $7 billion to $12 billion a year (vs. $12 billion for real estate and $9 billion for tourism, the area's two biggest legitimate businesses). Miami's Federal Reserve branch has a currency surplus of $5 billion, mostly in drug-generated $50 and $100 bills, or more than the nation's twelve Federal Reserve banks combined. Drug money has corrupted banking, real estate, law enforcement and even the fishing industry, whose practitioners are abandoning the pursuit of snapper and grouper for the transport of bales of marijuana ("square grouper," as fishermen call it) from freighters at sea to the mainland. About one-third of the region's murders are drug-related.
> Since the spring of 1980, when Cuban President Fidel Castro opened the port of Mariel to those who wanted to leave, about

""I am sure that he will not take offense and that he'll be happy to accept my apology because he is a man Rep Apologizes for Obama Tar Baby Comment
Rep Apologizes for Obama Tar Baby Comment
----------________---------
The shit that falls outta folks mouths.....smh
GOP Rep. Doug Lamborn of Colorado has apologized to President Obama for using the controversial phrase "tar baby" in a talk-radio discussion of the president's economic policies (specifically, "I don't want to be associated with him. It's like touching a tar baby and you get it, you're stuck").
According to the Huffington Post, the term "tar baby" has origins going back to an 1881 Uncle Remus story by writer Joel Chandler Harris and can be used to imply that a situation is difficult to solve. It has recently developed more derogatory connotations related to African Americans.
Lamborn, who has been called the most conservative member of Congress, was of course only familiar with the "difficult to solve" definition. And he's already decided that the president will accept his apology, telling the Denver Post, "I am sure that he will not take offense and that he'll be happy to accept my apology because he is a man of character."
The Tea Partier may be right. With a record of voting to the right of 96 percent of his colleagues on economic issues and 93 percent on social issues, Lamborn's poor choice of words (he says in retrospect that he would have used "quagmire" instead) reflects badly on his judgment and vocabulary (and perhaps his subconscious), but it's probably the least of the president's problems with him.
