What:The general topic here s the pending appointment of someone by New York Governor David Patterson to replace Former Senator Hillary Clinton who is now the Secretary of State as of Yesterday. Kennedy had inserted herself into consideration for the seat after being lobbied to do so by several family members and friends.

Who:The involved and important parties in this story are Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of former President John F Kennedy (JFK), New York Governor Patterson, who must appoint someone to the vacated seat, of course the mystery person who will actually be appointed the seat this coming week.

When:The news that she ceased her efforts to be appointed the seat was released last night(January 21, 2009). the seat is actually expected to be filled by Patterson bu this coming Saturday!

Why:Why does this matter to me you ask?

well if you are a New York Resident you want that seat to be filled ASAP so that New Yorkers has it’s full compliment of Senators to fight for their rights and a fare share of the pie as far as that huge 850 Billion(ye I said BILLION) dollar stimulus plan that is expected to be put before congress in the coming weeks.

If you are a woman or anyone who would like some diversity in the Senate then you would like to see a woman or an minority ascend to the seat

And if you are like me you really want them to SHUT THE HELL UP about all the hype surrounding the seat, pick some DAMN BODY and get to work helping President Obama put this country back together again!

BigSho!

It appears that with nothing else they can do to stop him, Senate Dems are going to have to Do THE RIGHT THING very soon. Good……..they should save all the antagonistic bullshit for the Indictment they should put on Dick Cheney for War Crimes and Treason (Valerie Plame, the Hot CIA spy he outted)!

This is an update from an earlier post!

Who: Former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris is in a fight replace President-Elect Barrack  Obama in the US Senate.  Burris has twice ran for statewide office in Illinois, both times being defeated:

When: the latest news in this is that the decision is supposed to come from the Senate Leaders today.

What: Obama’s Seats a major story because he was appointed by Governor Rob Blagojevich, a democrat from Illinois.  Blag, as some have come to call him was recently arrested and had a criminal complaint files against him by the FBI.  He is being accused of trying to sell Obama’s senatorial seat, among other fucked up shit they think he was up to!

Why:  Why does this seat matter to me you ask?  Because my target audience is comprised of young voters, urban voters, minorities, women or some combination of any of those.  That being said, Roland Burris is going to be the only black male in the entire US Senate when he succeeds in his fight(the laws on his side).  And let me just state that THAT is some fucked up shit!  It’s estimated that this next census in 2010 is expected to be the last one where white Americans will be the 50 percent of the population.  That coupled with the fact that 51% of that same number is female means that Rich White Men rule the fucking Senate.  That shit needs to stop!  Now I won’t get on a whole “The Man” rant cause I don’t believe that shit either.  But we need to work our way to 50% women, and the rest of the seats being indicative of the actual racial makeup of this good ole’ US WELLERS, WOMEN, MINORITIES and pretty much anyone not RICH either!
