Racism & The Obama Presidency

I saw some footage of an exchange between Louie Gohmert R-TX and AG Eric Holder where Gohmert accused Holder of not taking a Congressional investigation seriously and Holder finally had the spine to stand up to Gohmert and say “You don’t wanna go there, don’t assume that this isn’t important to me” and then Gohmert shot back that Congress was trying to get to the bottom of Fast & Furious where “innocent Mexicans died” of course that was a dig at the administration, don’t confuse it with sincere regard for the Mexicans who were allegedly killed Afterward at an NAACP speech, Holder said “Forget that it’s me, when have you EVER seen an Attorney General Of the United States treated like I was by a House Panel?” Everyone attended knew exactly what he was talking about, it was a dog whistle of a different sort, calling out racism without exactly using the term racism. See, AG Holder and President Obama have often had to be very careful, whether necessarily or not about talking abou...

The Booing of Stephen Snyder-Hill

Hey all, Welcome to the Spencer Hamilton Blog! http://www.latimes.com/local/la-me-hidden-man-20131229-dto,0,4485047.htmlstory#ixzz2ov0kNEhU ” I recently found an article from a facebook friend of mine Steven Hill now Snyder-Hill, and I’m brought back to a day in September 2011 when the GOP were holding a primary debate. Who would be the triumphant candidate? , Herman “Godfather” Cain, Rick “Frothy” Santorum, Michelle “Batshit” Bachmann, Newt Swingrich or the Ron Paul EVOLution? Steven Hill, on duty in Iraq close to the time DADT repeal would be fully done had   a question that needed asking, one that could determine whether or not Steven Hill would have a future in the US Army What happened next was shocking. The Question: In 2010, when I was deployed to Iraq, I had to lie about who I was because I'm a gay soldier and I didn't want to lose my job. My question is, under one of your presidencies, do you intend to circumvent the progress that's been made for gay a...

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 th...

Obama/Romney Rap

Inspired by Epic Rap Battles of History I decided to do a rap battle between Obama and Romney. I am all Obama but I believe I gave Romney some good zingers too. Romney I’m not a man swayed by facts When I got stacks of cash and super PACs I’m so rich I make my own reality Like Twilight Zone and Outer Limits don’t adjust your TV Never saw a house I couldn’t buy so I set my eyes on the White House Gonna move in and make it Mr. Romney’s House I’ll fix the economy and the deficit Get it below 8%, when it comes to unemployment you definitely built it Creatin jobs lower spending, close those loopholes By the end of my first year they’ll have forgotten all about you   Obama What Governor Romney just said isn’t true that’s how I introduce you Everybody and their Mother knows that much about you Say you believe in America but those buttons are made in China I’m used to people changing their minds in 4 years But even little kids don’t change their minds...
