Remember I alluded to other blogs I love to read? Yeah, Oscar in Louisville's my blog bro-in-law (er, methinks) - since he was introduced to me by my blog hubby (hey DP, hey FW - girl, it's in name only, I got your back... TRUST ME!!!)
But Oscar's been doing his thing for a while, and I gotta admit, if you're looking for political commentary (or a spiritual word) he does both well. An excerpt:
When I talk to Republicans they often comment that I don't sound like a liberal, and they're right. When I talk to Democrats they often note that I don't sound like a liberal, and they're right. In fact, one of the very few things that my Democratic and Republican friends could agree upon is the fact that I think and sound much more like the people who constitute the Republican base than those who constitute the Democratic base. So why is it that I am a Democrat, and a partisan one at that? It's really not that complex:
NIGGER PLEASE
That NIGGER PLEASE line is a link to a story you really SHOULD know about, but you're going to have to check out Oscar's post to get to it. You can read Oscar's full post here.
I love the fact that he blogs (reads and reports) my mind, but in such an intellectual way, that it's uber-friggin sexy. Ah, I'm sucker for a man that can drop multi-syllabic politically charged gems in the same sentence as the F***-bomb. Oh, oops...I guess I shouldn't be lusting after my blog bro-in-law, 'specially since he's very spiritual...I'm SO bad. Just check him out already!
I'm going to have to add Oscar to my blog roll. I love political blogs. I've been rolling with Steve Gilliard's blog (http://stevegilliard.blogspot.com) for a while. I love that they don't bite their tongues when dealing out the truth.
