When Michael Medved wrote his column, Six inconvenient truths about the U.S. and slavery a year ago, lefties went nuts, mischaracterizing him as defending slavery, and Keith Olbermann distinguished him with the much coveted “Worst Person in the World” award.

Regardless of what you think about Mike Huckabee, Chip Saltsman did an excellent job with few resources in Huck’s amazing presidential run.
Chip understands the same thing that Huck understands. If we ever want to take back any majority or the White House, we have to expand the coalition and win over African Americans and Hispanics. Chip has a plan to do this.

So a completely unenthusiastic Skateboard P was recently interviewed by the Boy Genius Report regarding the assortment of devices, gadgets, applications and computers he uses to stay connected, function and do his work.

Due to the lengthiness of the newest “Iron Man 2008″ trailer after the jump, I would assume it to be the very last. Theres plenty more action in this iteration then in the previous ones, and we finally get a look at Tony Starks actually in and piloting the Mark 2 & 3. Aforementioned, Tony Starks seems like the role RDJ was born to play, an obnoxious, chauvinist, pompous, frivolous, super-genius-playboy, that deep down inside all nerds with swag aspire to be, lets just hope ... more  (Random Banger #50) ‘Outkast - ‘Return of the ‘G”From: nerdwithswag.com Post Date: 2008-03-07 14:19:22
How you doing folks? Peace to each and every one of you, fans, friends, arbitrary visitors, sporadic readers and religious haters alike. Please believe I’m not oblivious to the fact we left a lot of folks hanging with no resolve (I’m fully aware of the utter wackness the “urban” blogosphere has to offer, but fret no longer…), but as most already know, sometimes things don’t always go as planned.
