One of the main reasons for taking a break was that I wanted to make sure that I had the right intention and purpose for this blog. What I really wanted was to make sure that my voice had reason,purpose and provided productive and not destructive thoughts. Everday pundits are paid millions of dollars to offer opinions that are false, cruel and border on racism. That is not the voice that want to provide. I love this country and realize although we may disagree, we all want the best for this country that has given us so much. <br /><br />Over the past few months I have watched this country become divided like I have never seen in my lifetime. The President has been depicted as a Stalin, Hitler a Socialist and those are the nice things. What has caused all of this? A bill that will provide millions of Americans health care. We are arguing over giving people a better way of life period. <br /><br />Many of the people who are arguing over this claim they are Christians and it makes me question if they have read the Bible verse about helping "the least of these".<br /><br /><br />This past Friday the President went to the Republican caucus to extend an olive branch to Republicans to work together on future legislation to include health care. In the process he defended his polices and seemed to have found his Presidential voice for the first time since becoming President. It is my hope that the Republicans heard this voice, for some people thier lives are depending on it.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-28143944214701651902009-12-19T15:47:00.004-05:002009-12-19T15:54:27.316-05:00Happy Holidays!!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-gJJLhvdGKJmLxA0_g3PHAbT_x_1ISvsUkVpPnAD51d8NaHOhyVJq_VKgw7b3dhMA5ktsHInTJv5751AKFc-G94pPzohWRXWvffF2KKdEtaXZXcl-eROTOsy0BoLRkxew-AXFbWJqinU/s1600-h/christmas-tree-inside-the-house.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 234px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-gJJLhvdGKJmLxA0_g3PHAbT_x_1ISvsUkVpPnAD51d8NaHOhyVJq_VKgw7b3dhMA5ktsHInTJv5751AKFc-G94pPzohWRXWvffF2KKdEtaXZXcl-eROTOsy0BoLRkxew-AXFbWJqinU/s320/christmas-tree-inside-the-house.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5417053071364052466" /></a><br />Hello all I know I have been away for a while but I am working on making this blog and my radio show even better than before.

Of course I was much younger and the thought of coming down with a serious disease was not an issue but in the back of my mind was always the fear of being in a serious accident or breaking a limb. The blessing was that I was not resposible for a child or sick parent and in that entire year not one thing happened to me. I felt a strong relief when I did get finally get health insurance and could see a doctor on a regulare basis. <br /><br />The statisitcs show that 46 million Americans do not have health insurance, and many of those people have childern. In a country this rich that is a travesty, and for over sixty years Washington has tried to so somethning about it. This year for the first time since the Clinton administration there seems to be a clear path to universial health care.<br /><br /><br />During the August recess members of Congress are having town halls meetings to talk about the issue of health care and unfortunately they are being shouted down in meetings by people on the right who disagree with the proposed health care bill<br /><br />Therefore no one wins, not the people withourt healthcare, not the peoploe with healthcare who need something better and not the people who need thier health care premiums to come down.<br /><br />What needs to happen is true civil converesation on this subject. This is the most serious subject we will face as a country and if we do not treat it as such the price we will pay is one that we can not cover.<br /><br /><br />Stop the shouting, stop the lies and let's have a conversation.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-28909904202329695362009-08-10T16:52:00.003-04:002009-08-10T16:52:41.602-04:00Let's have a real health care debate.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-89132603582182310632009-08-10T16:52:00.001-04:002009-08-10T16:52:41.347-04:00Let's have a real health care debate.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-41109372857941614432009-08-01T09:09:00.002-04:002009-08-01T09:12:28.627-04:00Today on Sista Girl Talks RadioToday on Sista Girl Talks Radio we will talk about Black men and thier relatioship with the police. <br /><br />On the show today we have Dr. Charles Williams,clinical professor and director of the Center for the Prevention of School-Aged Violence at Drexel University.

My hero a gentlemen that I admire had a mug shot in this morning's paper. Here is the irony the first African American President was on the cover of the newspaper so I started reading the paper with a smile. And then I got to that page. What page? The page where a Harvard educated man had a mug shot becuase of an arrest. Why was he arrested? Well he was trying to get into his own home on the campus where he is a tenured proffesor. Someone called the police becuase they thought that Dr. Gates was breaking in his own home. After he showed his Harvard ID and an ID to show his address of the home he was in he was still arrested The police officer said the 5' 7"/150 lb Gates was disorderly to a police officer with a gun in Cambridge. HMMMMMMMMMM. I know Obama gave a speech last week about no exuses and about hard work , but that is what Dr. Gates has done all of his life and he still ended up with an arrest and a mugshot. Are there really no more exuses? <br /><br /><br />Here is an update about the case.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-10792147471819740582009-07-07T17:47:00.002-04:002009-07-07T17:51:59.981-04:00RIP MJ<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-GmnMRbqFqwXT-QvOpuTfpTlH50Of7MBZP4qvCT4mOZs-wTV9nIqvOn2cD2-SNK29LHeXUamJx1bXpHTYoPzav5vqfjTGvRGkiL5EqGH4nDpJ-Gn_GiiNEIJkr5xDGvgLwv2bjNGcz8A/s1600-h/mj1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 218px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-GmnMRbqFqwXT-QvOpuTfpTlH50Of7MBZP4qvCT4mOZs-wTV9nIqvOn2cD2-SNK29LHeXUamJx1bXpHTYoPzav5vqfjTGvRGkiL5EqGH4nDpJ-Gn_GiiNEIJkr5xDGvgLwv2bjNGcz8A/s320/mj1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355839282056701266" /></a><br />TO ALL<br /><br />I will continue to blog tomorrow but I don't feel too much like blogging today.<br /><br />So as the world says good bye to MJ today so do I.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-64368387217349616962009-06-27T09:42:00.003-04:002009-06-27T11:02:05.430-04:00MJ and MeI it safe to say I had a wonderful childhood. It was not perfect but it was one filled with parents who loved me,brothers who I laughed with and the music of Micheal Jackson. My earliest memory of a Micheal Jackson song was at the end of my Headstart graduation, my teacher put on the song ABC and while the other kids were shy I danced, danced and danced. When Micheal Jackson sang "shake it shake it baby" I did and according to my Mom I was the star of the show.<br /><br />When I was about 11 years old my cousins took me to see tHE JACKSON FIVE and I remember being mad because my cousins go to wear thier fly clothes (hot pants and tube tops) and Mommy made me wear jeans and a t-shrit. I was prepared to wear a crush velvet purple and pink dress and dreamed of MJ noticing me and whisking me off to California where we would have a wedding to end all weddings.<br /><br />I saw him years later at Soilder Field in Chicago when he reunited with his brothers for the Victory tour and I was horse from screaming his name.<br /><br />Over the years Micheal got stranger and lighter but whenever there was a family gathering we would always play his musick, dance and laugh about our crushes on the Jackson Five. Micheal changed but our love affair with his music did not<br /><br />This past Thursday I lost my first love my first crush my first guy.

If I wanted to be successful in marriage and mothering I would look to my Mother and Michelle Obama. Oprah Winfrey would be my model to be successful businesswomen and entrepreneur. If I could get five minutes of face time with Sarah Palin I would tell her to study, study and study Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Mrs. Clinton has handled whatever life has thrown at her with grace and strength. She has done it I under the scrutiny of the media and landed as one of the most powerful women in the world. While late night hosts and comedians were making fun of her husband and her she spent the time preparing herself for greater things and by doing so having the last laugh. <br /><br /><br /><br />During the last election I enthusiastically supported President Obama but I was overly impressed with Mrs. Clinton and I knew that no matter who was the Democratic nominee would eventually win the November election and be a successful President. Mrs Clinton is strong, knowledgeable , tough and capable. In other words SHE IS A BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD GIRL. <br /><br /><br />So my advice to Mrs. Palin is quite simple study your foreign policy, figure out that Africa is a continent with counties, get some Black and Hispanic friends (listen to them) and study Hillary Clinton because she is a true model of success.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6529863503637991999.post-40402899945654101432009-06-17T18:12:00.001-04:002009-06-17T18:14:49.795-04:00One of the things that I am learning in life is that if you want to be successful in a certain are look and study people who have been successful in that arena.

I think somone showed him the percentage of Hispanics that President Obama won in the 2008 election and informed him that the last group of people he shoud be pissing off are Hispanics. However by making this statement it is clear to me that "Newt" does not have any Hispanic friends, and if he does he does not make it his business to talk or consult with them on a regular basis. This shoot from the hip talk is the exact ideology that got us in the war in Iraq. This kind of thinking says: get a quick opinin, don't think about it, don't listen to reason and just act. America does not need this. So if anyone who happens to read this blog and knows Newt tell him not to waste his time in thinking about runnign in 2012 becuase he has already lost election with one stupid and insesitive comment.Sista Girl Speaks Uphttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15733858083726687742noreply@blogger.com0
