Money is nice, but being able to speak my mind is better.
"Real talk: Daniel Rubin has a great little piece up wherein he chats with The Field Negro, the Philly-based blogger who sharply ponders all things black on a daily basis. (Seriously, if you’ve never checked in with TFN, you should: Its author, Wayne Bennett, is a fantastic read who can cut through bullshit like a hot knife through butter, which is a far grosser analogy than I wanted to make, but there you have it.)"

"To white people, Bennett's musings are like kitchen-table talk from a kitchen they may otherwise never set foot in. To African Americans, he is part of a growing army of black Internet amateurs who have taken up the work once reserved for ministers and professional activists: the work of setting a black agenda, shaping black opinion and calling attention to the state of the nation's racial affairs."

"That's why I love the blog "Field Negro" so much. Field, as he's known to his fans, has the sense of reality that it takes to call out the (CowPuckey) of blame beating by those who are in positions of power and their lackeys. Because of his handle and his unabashed way of writing about racial issues, Field is often cited as a "Black blogger." What he is, however, is a first-class detector of blame deflection and an excellent student of history. If you want to write about the past and future of repression there's really no other perspective to take - which is why everyone should read Field."

"I had no idea, for example, of the extent of the African-American blogging world out there and its collective powers of dissemination.But now, after reading thousands of anguished, thoughtful comments posted on these blogs reflecting on issues of persistent racial discrimination in the nation's schools and courtrooms, what's clear to me is that there's a new, "virtual" civil rights movement out there on the Internet that can reach more people in a few hours than all the protest marches, sit-ins and boycotts of the 1950s and 60s put together."

Give it a rest white boy, you're convincing nobody.
Thinking about it, the last line of my previous post will work for the caption competition as well.
"Stocky and Bullwinkle"
Bill (!) and PC have the best lines.
Politicians using ventriloquism to explain stance on pro-life issues.
Which one is dinner Bill? Nevermind, the Moose doesn't want it's arteries clogged with all that subcutaneous fat.
Yep I like PC's too!
Who has the biggest belly??
I aint no republican I'm a bull moose
Looks like Greece has voted OXI
Potentially a huge moment for the Left in Europe.
"Y'know a guy in a moose suit might make not be a bad running mate."
Yisheng is as racist as any Klan member.
Chris to moose...
"Does this fast food uniform make me look fat?"
All pretty damn good.
But "Stocky and Bullwinkle", though. :)
That was seriously creative and funny.
Man, maybe I should try this moose diet.
Yes, I promise I won't pick Sarah Palin for my running mate.
Sorry folks the moose should of told you the bridge is closed
The one on the left has all the brains
