#Memphnesia: Back to the Future: No New Taxes!

October 24, 2012 by

0

I’ll lose friends, but this is an important issue, if you vote to raise your taxes then you’re silly.  Politicians encouraged us to do this once before with the Wheel Tax, that was sold as temporary, back in the 70’s.  Now they’re encouraging us again with two taxes; they know that we have a serious case of […]

Trayvon Martin: We Are Watching Your Back!

October 23, 2012 by

It’s amazing to the see how methodically Zimmerman’s attorneys are, as they work to defend him on all levels, searching for things, in his defense, even as small as Trayvon Martin’s school records.  They want to shift the public’s opinion about Zimmerman’s conduct away from him to Trayvon Martin (the victim).  Trayvon Martin a young […]

There’re many who would like to think that a life free of murder is written in stone on their behalf and that dreadful act is far from their front doors.  In reality murder lurks in the human mind like the thoughts of a terrible stormy day after a sunny one.  That’s why CASK, in 1991, […]

This coalition is proof that Memphis’s leadership has, in fact, lost its souls. They’re undertaking Memphis’s challenges base on something that has happened hundred miles away; in a city that doesn’t resemble Memphis at all; Detroit! Come on now; they could’ve done better than that. Hell, Memphis has the highest sale tax rate in the […]

Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance, 2012

This day causes one to think about things that matters in life in real-time, helps one to connect with family and friends, and shows one why it’s important to pray for one’s enemies.  These things help one to rise above lost and suffering.  Though one must never forget our many past challenges, but still, the 9/11 attacks […]

Memphis’s powerful leadership has “announced” the “re-naming” of a “street” in the downtown area  to “honor” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  The designated area is south of world-famous Beale Street and next to another world-famous point in American history, Clayborn Temple, where Dr. King started his last march.  This has become a symbolic rallying point […]

Romney to Continue “Trickle-down” Economic Policies

May 9, 2012 by

0

Our national infrastructure is near third world level, millions of Americans are still unemployed, and of 350 million Americans only 1% of them are rich and getting richer.  The corporate idea has failed the American people, it’s unsuccessful in lifting our quality of life, and it has yet to keep us ahead of other growing […]
