The Spencer Hamilton Blog

Hey Welcome to Another Installment in the Spencer Hamilton Blog Now that you've lent me your eyes, I'll get right to it Okay, so today I was at a restaurant and I needed a ride home and sometimes a few of us stop at a restaurant and have a bite when we get paid. Portia who gets a ride home oftentimes gets dropped off steps away from me but when she moved a little further away Marnie takes us still. However, all of a sudden she has a problem and Portia and says that she didn’t want to say anything to me but when I told Bonnie—one of my friends who offered to drop me off at a bus stop because she was going in the opposite direction--I was going with the Marnie and Portia, all of a sudden she mentions that the Marnie said that she can’t take me, then I get home and find out that she said that she was intimidated by me to ever say anything. Huh???? This is an established pattern and all of a sudden you’re intimidated by me? I talk about everything while you’re taking me

It came once out of the blue Wondered who it was when you revealed it was you My heart caught in my chest and anger too At the thought of you popping back into my life once again It was a text but it may as well have been a knock at my door I felt as if I had been struck by lightning It made me feel so panicked and such a mess of contradictions   Why are you contacting me? Wasn’t four years enough for you? I refuse to be love’s fool What I thought we had is cooled off No more…No more…It will never be   Again…no way Four years of tragedy in one fragile heart like mine I won’t go to an old love on a new page The chapter and book is finished I can’t pick it up again My year away has been rough wondering if I will find another who will be my love I have no doubts I will But I have them in my mind sometimes No one wants to end up alone, and cold A bed with no warm memories I’d rather have a cold bed Than one that

Voter Suppression will backfire, just you wait   So…remember North Carolina VIVA Law? It is now making waves in the state that saw Governor Pat McCrory win last year. This was the chance for the tea leaves to start showing some promising signs of rubber stamping. Voter suppression has been a key prong in the GOP since 2011 when the GOP took states that were very very purple like WI, (full Legislative and Governor) MN (both chambers) ME (Split Legislature and R Governorship) NH (veto proof majority D Governor) and in 2012 when we were celebrating over Obama’s re election something that the GOP had fought so hard to stop. Art Pope was seeing the fruits of his labor pay off when Pat McCrory, routed 4 years ago by Governor Beverly Perdue (no relation) was elected to the NC Legislature. They got to work on abortion bill in a motorcycle safety bill, tort reform, basically a blueprint of ALEC which I’m sure Art Pope has a membership in—kind of model legislation…including Voter ID

If you think that Reagan was a good President though he turned our country from an international creditor to an international debtor, left the biggest deficit in history, but hate Obama though he cut the deficit in half You just might have Romnesia If you admired   Truman and other Presidents for expanding healthcare to the poor, but hate Obama for making it universal you just might have Romnesia If you thought surveillance under Bush kept us safe, but under Obama it’s a way to spy on you then you just might have Romnesia If you were heated that veterans memorials were shut down when the government did and said nothing about food stamp cuts TO veterans then you just might have Romnesia If you think that Benghazi was a bigger deal than the 80 dead in 13 different embassy attacks under Bush, then you just might have Romnesia If you think

Hey!!! It’s the Spencer Hamilton Blog and you are in for a treat!!! I am excited that ENDA has passed the Senate 64-32. I guess the Democrats have grown a pair and said that this is the time to do the work and give the House Republicans a chance to redeem themselves by passing it—I remember the VAWA fight and it was a LONG LONG time that it was waiting before it was passed. Same with immigration reform but of course we have to push the Republicans on that as well as Democrats to continue making noise on the bill   ENDA has been long debated and of course the religious right has been spreading nothing but lies about the bill saying that somehow you will have to hire John and call him Jane and what kind of example will that set for kids, they use graphics like this to bred a fear in people that somehow it will be a special right that will be forced on them if they can’t fire gay people just because they’re gay. It has become a gleeful thing when gay and lesbian bisexual and t
