Put Your Blog on Blast-Combat Friday Foolishness

We have a couple of items of FRIDAY FOOLISHNESS courtesy of your fellow WAOD readers. To combat all of this foolishness, I'm encouraging you to put up a link in the comments of your favorite blog post, including your own.:

Desmond Hatchett

Please don't send me anymore emails about 29-year-old Desmond Hatchett and his 21 children. He's not even worth my time. Neither are his 11 baby mamas. There isn't anything I could write on this blog that would convince these ig'nant people to stop engaging in child abuse. Hopefully authorities will deem any woman who continues to get pregnant by a man that can only pay her $1.98 in child support per se negligent.

For all of you trumpeting forced sterilization, you are clearly rusty on your world history. TRUST ME, you don't want the government anywhere near anyone's reproductive organs. Once they get through with the Desmond Hatchetts of the world, they will be coming for you.

They Gave this woman White House Press Credentials?

The White House issued press credentials to Brenda Lee of the Georgia Informer. Brenda says she is a Catholic Priestess... um I didn't know that Vatican City allowed women into the priesthood.

Well anywhoo, she wanted to give a letter to President Obama asking him to make a statement about gay marriage. She ended up being dragged from the tarmac.

No, we haven't forgotten about Part III of Why You Should Burn the June Issue of ESSENCE magazine, we were hit by a wave of "multimedia creativity" :) At least, I know my Mama will have a good laugh about it.

I have a great link (I think you posted this before) about Alysa Stanton-Olugnick. She will become the first African American ordained as a Rabbi. For those of you who practice Judaism, you should know that this woman is no joke. Learning Hebrew AND Chaldean are no small feats and completing any Rabbinical school is as tortuous as any Ph. D program Read more about her here:

I'm just gonna post the link to my other blog.

Time to put up or shut up - harnessing our collective resources to produce and distribute the kind of variety in "black cinema" that many of us have been crying for: http://www.shadowandact.com/?p=3621

Not quite sure what's going on with Black sexuality.

Here's my take:

Pure stupidity, and I know all these women must be on welfare b/c a working woman would have known he ain't have nothing anyway and cut her losses and kept it moving and not even bother to take a day off from work to go to court for 2.00. I wonder if he got any teen girls pregnant?

Thanks Gina! I have posted before. I write about what speaks to my heart. In the last month, my blog about Nancy Grace and her fixation with Caylee Anthony.

Rarely does she profile a person of color missing. What makes me sick about her and CNN, her producer is a black woman.

Here's the link....Breaking News: Nancy Grace Interrupts her obsession of Caylee Anthony and Reports a Black Woman Missing!

A Black woman journalist (an older one at that) acting like a fool...A shame!
