After watching the “Democratic National Convention” coverage last night & a piece of Hillary’s speech I am still trying to figure out why people think Barack Obama owes Hillary & or Bill Clinton anything.
Why are people in the media still talking Hillary like she is still in the race. I mean it really seems like some people did not get the press release that Hillary lost the race & had no way in the world to win.
After her speech, CNN took to the audience to speak with Hillary supporters to get their reaction on what was said. I can’t remember the woman’s name who they talked to but she was brown skinned, had a bad hair piece, slightly rotund & she sounded like she could put a hurtin’ on a catfish sandwich. Hold up, thanks to my girl DCSaavy, I know now that the catfish sandwich eaters name is Ann Price-Mills of Texas.
The reporter simply asked her what she thought abut the speech & the woman (whose also a delegate) started doing all this wailing, crying & complaining that she just does not know anything about Obama. Then she said that she was still going to cast her delegate vote for Hillary Wednesday because that was what she was there for.
Then the reporter asked her what she was going to do in the fall in terms of voting. This is when she started acting like a damn fool with all that crying & sniffling. In between catching her breath, she was like, I am not voting for McCain but I, I, I, I just don’t know if I can vote for Obama.
Bill Clinton obviously does not like Hillary & is working for her to make himself look good, so what the fuck do you want from Obama.
To all those ardent Hillary Clinton Supports/PUMAS/Bill Clinton dick biters etc,
- A) Shut the fuck up & then pay attention even Hillary said “no way, no how, no McCain”
- B) Shut the fuck up & then consider what a vote for a Republican really means
- C) Shut the fuck up & then get a life
- D) Shut the fuck up & then come up with some real solutions for change
- E) Shut the fuck up & then if you fell like you “just don’t know anything about Barack”, go to his site & read up bitch
- F) Shut the fuck up & then start your own party, create your own platform & produce a candidate
- G) There is no G, just shut the fuck up
After Googling Anne Price-Mills’ name, I found tons of blogs ripping her & her cohorts to shreds, much like I did her. Great minds think alike.
Lastly, she was all on the first woman being president thing & that is OK. But my thing is, you were Black before you were female. IMO being the first Black person to make it this far trumps all else. I’m just saying!!!

God, I thought it was me. I have been looking at this play out like, “what do they mean, convince the hillary supporters, she is done running!”
Its going to be a constant battle though, and they are going to make every moe hill as major as possible.
DJ SKiP / August 27, 2008
LMAO…I saw the SAME clip of the portly, emotional Hilary Supporter…She did begin to act like a bafoon with the unnecessary boo-hooing…..We’ve got it on the DVR…I’ll do my best to upload it and send it to you
Bygbaby / August 27, 2008
Ro – OK!!!
Bam – I am dying to see what will be said after Bill the dick speaks tonight.
DJ Skip – OK, so i am happy that I am not the only who saw that tripped. That so needs to be on youtube & someone needs to parody it!!!

Meikmeika / August 27, 2008
ROTFL!!! Hallelujah!!!
I still don’t understand what people mean when they say they don’t know who Obama is…. Do they really know who Hillary is?
I would really love one of the reporters to ask these die hard Democrats why they won’t vote for Obama, considering his views are extremely similar to Hillary’s.
What a mess….
sdg1844 / August 27, 2008
STFU is the phrase of the month. People are so incredibly stupid, triflin and proud of it that it makes my blood boil.
Dumb ass mo-fos need to shut their yaps. MSM included. What a bunch of hacks. The media has showed its ass too.
Shan / August 27, 2008
TAFARI! there IS a video of this! My friend sent me that mess this morning – check it out here: http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/politics/2008/08/27/sot.hillary.supporter.cnn
I almost got in my car and drove to CO. good grief.

This woman is full of shit. If she is such a strong Democrat she should vote for the Democratic nominee. I bet registered Republicans that aren’t too thrilled with McCain as the nominee will still get off their asses and vote for him anyway. I am tired of the bitter Hillary supporters. They need to move on.
JenellyBean / August 27, 2008
LMAO @ “You were Black before you were female”
So true!
This whole “Hillary or Nothing” mentality bewilders me too.
It’s like they don’t see the value in Obama at all. I can understand he’s not Hillary but they aren’t too far off in views and beliefs, so whats the damn big deal?
Imagine if Obama had not won the nomination and Black America was on some “Obama or Nothing!” Hillary wouldn’t win…
The sad part about all this is we need these folks in order to win…
WAKE UP!

WHOA
‘black before female’
what kinda statement is that
who laid down that law?
the truth of the matter is that gender and race are not just easily separated like that.
I am a black female. period. my experience is in the world is based on my skin color AND my me being a woman
i could have sworn you just wrote about how black people shouldn’t just supporting barack ’cause he’s black.
i don’t agree with that sobering fool but to say that she’s black [before female] and therefore should be gun-ho-obama, doesn’t seem right to me.
imo

Um, can we say, “drama queen“???
Ilgh.
I find it really interesting that so many people (on both sides of the aisle) have now become such passionate “critical thinkers” when it comes to electing politicians. ::(gag):: Would be equally as interesting to see–if we had to do it all over again with W–both the first time and the second time–would all of these folks hold him under the same scrutiny and impossible criteria that they’re heaping onto Obama. Dubbya got a free rides both times–but it’s like folks really shut their brains off and rushed him past GO completely the second time.
Why are people so allergic to logic??? This just makes me want to friggin’ puke.
[I’d once said I wasn’t going to vote for Hills if she stole the election for Obama, but I’d have gotten over myself really quickly–McCain is to be avoided at all costs (and it baffles the hell out of me that people don’t seem to get the bigger picture–like you said).]
It’s disgusting the way folks’ minds just turn to lemming mush with this stuff.
Ilgh.

I was so disgusted I forgot to mention how much I love the post! 😉

sounds like she came down with a bad case of “we sick-itis”. i hear that scan may be working on a cure (shhh).

bygbaby,
THANK YOU for blogging exactly what I feel. I have to admit when the primary was over I tried to imagine how it would feel to vote for Hillary in the case that Obama lost–you know, just be able to empathize. . . I almost threw up in mouth! But after seeing Hillary’s speech I can see how she can be considered human and I wish that had she campaigned more along the lines of her video tribute instead of her shamefully shady ways. I would’ve gotten over it by now and thats what folks need to do. Get over it because the Republicans/press are using these fools to create drama.

u need to read my last two post for real 7 Houses of Czechoslovakia and No John Adams, No LBJ – easy mud slinging for Che…
Bygbaby / August 28, 2008
Shit, so many comments I do not know where to start.
Meikmeika – They act like they have been Hillary's titty tight since birth.
sdg1844 – Watch your blood pressure boo….
Jenelleybean – "It's like they don't see the value in Obama at all" What value in a Black man, is that possible??? LOL
Shanda – Thx for the link boo!!!
Shea – What I meant by that was by way of birth. At the moment of conception, race was automatic whereas sex came later.
Futher, at the ned of her sobbing mess, she talked about how far & how hard we had to fight for rights, that led me to think that she was talking about Black folk not about women. And with that in mind, I saw her statements as bullshit.
Muslimahlocs – LOL!!!
Chi Chi – Yall think it, I write it. LOL!!!
Torrance – Oh shit, on my way!!!

Stupid beeotch! I can’t believe an ignoramus like that has a delegate vote…I half expected her to say “I don’t know nothin’ bout birthin’ no babies!”
That cheap-ass insta-weave says it all….
ayankha / September 3, 2008
Ditto to the post and all comments. There were about 3 Black women that acted like this that played btwn MSNBC & CNN. I went from disgust, to suspicion that they were plants/actors, and then to an even larger amount of disgust.
Bygbaby / September 4, 2008
Invisible Woman – LOL!!! I have a weave wearing friend & she cracked on her snatch back big time!
Ayankah – Oh I missed them, I was just too through to continue to watch.

I disagree.
She’s female before she’s black.
When I see more black men in solidarity with black women, then maybe I could agree with you.
At this point, seeing how patriarchal black culture world wide is, no way.
I wonder how many black men would be hootin and hollerin in favor of America’s first black pres if Obama was female?
Bygbaby / September 9, 2008
"When I see more black men in solidarity with black women, then maybe I could agree with you." I hear you on this & this type of solidarity is bigger than you & I but it must start somewhere, I am doing my part by being down for my family nuclear & extended & working in my community but I am one man.
What are your suggestions for bringing more solidarity?
In terms of which came first, the chicken or the egg/race or sex; I think I have science on my side. 🙂
Bygbaby
Everything can change & I think most of the world has a patriarchal mind set so that is a tough one to focus solely on Africans across the world.
"I wonder how many black men would be hootin and hollerin in favor of America's first black pres if Obama was female?" well we also have Cynthia McKinney running on the Green PArty ticket & she is getting no love from anyone especially in the press.
we can cry about shoulda woulda coulda's all day so let's deal with today & get Obama in the white house.
