	He's (PResident Obama) Black all day long, but if you mean he doesn't think like most Blacks in America ~~then I can appreciate that more~~ . Tagged by Jen Fad on 08/07/2010

	I hear ya regards ending the wars & I'm tired of hearing about our precious men and women dying over there. I have a family friend over in Iraq and so these wars are so very close to home for me. Perhaps you would like to take action like I have by spreading the word to others. Please take a look at the work done by BraveNewFilms and R. Greenwall. I think you'll find his efforts interesting. http://www.rethinkafghanistan.com/ Tagged by Jen Fad on 04/25/2010

	I meet him on a couple of occassins. Never talk to him so I don't know what his heart is. Is he a good man or an evil one? I don't imply you're worshippping Too Short but I'm saying I don't respect people I don't know personally. And since his music which is vile and disrespectful for the most part is how I know him I have to distance myself a little bit so as not to give approval to such characteristic. I respect Too Short's hustle no doubt and he's a revoluntionary because Too Short changed the game of Hip Hop for the West Coast and anybody wanting to start out not that muscially but he possessed ideas and initiative. Too Short's drive made him a success and for that energy we can respect that! Tagged by John Washington on 01/01/2009
