Four more years! YES, today is inauguration day for Barack Obama who was officially sworn in for his second term yesterday. Generally when one utters these words grouped together its something preceded with a word like ‘damn’. This happens to be that amazing exception to the general rule. And it would appear its in honor of the man undertaking another four years of dealing with the daily throws of DC politics.
We are all gleeful that the man we voted for is going full steam ahead – and on MLK day no-less.
Well, we too have a dream. That the American people as a whole learn to vote into office politicians who are actually out to do work for the people instead of heading their otherwise lazy asses out to the nations Capital to spend their time filibustering and getting greased over by lobbyist who ain’t got no one’s well being at heart other than to figure out how to raise their profit margins at the expense of the very people who put those lazy asses in their cushy spots with the best health care imaginable!
That’s our damn dream. And that one day, like a dear friend Elease so eloquently put it, we don’t have to work on MLK day!
Congress gets to take off for weeks on end and the people can’t have MLK day? WTF!
But today is about celebrating history – one that will run another four years! And for that, we think, MLK must be smiling from the here-after. Cuz for certain some of what he preached – not all, we ain’t no idealist – has come to pass.
So here’s a Northern congratulatory mention to President Obama. We don’t volunteer to brave the cold for many but we’d gladly do it for you. But since we can’t, please know we’d be there with the masses today if we could.

Barack Obama: Message From Your Constituent
Posted by Native NYker in barack obama, m.mashak, mitt romney, politics, president obama, presidential elections 2012 on November 7, 2012
President Obama delivers re-election speech in his home-base of Chicago on November 6, 2012.
We have expressed our relief at President Obama defeating the double-talks of ex-Governor Romney. It should rightly feel like a win over the 1%, for many across the USA, as that man sleeps on $$$. But one win does not problem erase make. That’s for damn sure. This very sentiment, in as much, was poignantly addressed in a moving acknowledgement speech live from Chicago.
And now that the position has been secured we thought we would share a message from our dear Dive Master Mashak with our re-elected leader – a sentiment of the people of these here United States as it were.
M.Mashak:
Dear President Obama:
We are happy that you have been re-elected for four more years.
We worked diligently to remove every obstacle we could see. To that end, we are partners with you in this success.
Your first term was marred by the fetid, lingering odor of the former regime: epic economic downturn, and stiff-necked obstructionism. We understand the difficultly one might face as a President to engage and inspire with such conditions extant; a notch short of anarchy…
Today has a different outlook!
Put it down hard and fast my brother and let’s, together, make this country the place it ought to be: Strong families, strong education, and an optimism for the future!
The haters are gonna stay haters, we will never get their support. Time is now and the place is here that we take our stance and build that legacy; “That we may tell it to generations following!”
Well, we couldn’t have scribed that better ourselves – at least so eloquently. So Bravo to you Mashak. You hit that mark on your first try and Romney should’ve come to you long ago for how-to tutorials on getting to the straight of it.
As for the Networks – well – CNN pointed to the very fact, during their Election 2012 results last night – how voting across the country pointed to a very divided sentiment between the Red & Blue. Hardly a new phenom, one would say… But one that, hopefully, we can, for once, overcome and steadfastly do as our leader called for in working not for politics sake but for the sake of the people that put those politicians in their very cushy posts.
Lets (try) to move forward!
Barack Obama: Four More Years Forward!

We can’t begin to express the relief showering upon us presently! Barack Obama has won his re-election bid, guaranteeing us FOR MORE YEARS to move the country out of the mess Bush dug the country into!
This is better than our first orgasm. And certainly will have a longer duration. Cuz thinking back on that moment, all those years back, it was like it came and went! Although to our own defense we did have an immeasurable recycling resilience.
Word is the Romney is not ready to concede defeat – as if that is of any surprise.
We personally hate it when folks don’t know to acknowledge when the party is over and its time for them to take their raggedy ass back to their compound to further plan changes to their annual and personally shifted Olympics!
Obama vs Romney: Four More Years!
Posted by Native NYker in barack obama, current events, mitt romney, politics, president obama, presidential debate on October 17, 2012
President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney Square Off in The 2nd of 3 Presidential Debates – Held in NY.
Keeping with a political tone, we dutifully stayed out asses glued to our laptop to catch the 2nd (of 3) Obama vs Romney presidential debates. We did this, in large part, to see how our president would tackle a man with so many character and political flaws that it begged the question of why he is still in the running. But we are all too familiar with there being no actual shame in political arenas. And dumb-ass is ambitious if nothing else.
We can’t say that Obama disappointed – and handled himself with respect and tact – but we were still left with the deeply rooted desire that someone – anyone at last nights debate – simply confronted Romney with a basic question of “tell us what the breakdown of your plan entails” instead of the rhetoric of repeated catch phrases he seems so good at.
Criticizing is to be expected but please follow it up with something better – in detail – is our position.
But there were points to marvel at. Like, for example, we especially love how post his video debacle where he wrote off 47% of Americans as needy hand-out wanting lazy asses, he now cares about everybody equally. Wow!
Must be that Mormonism.
We also loved Obama’s quip on the portfolio jab… For sure Obama’s isn’t as big as Romney’s but daresay that is likely the only large member Romney has.
We are still left with the desire that our present Commander in Chief would throw away his tact and diplomacy and would turn and shut Romney down and reduce him to the level he ought to be brought down to!
Victor Cruz: Latinos for Obama Spot
Posted by Native NYker in hottie, nfl, old spice, president obama, victor cruz on October 8, 2012
NFL pro-footballer for the NY Giants Victor Cruz is one hot salsa-field-sporting Latino. And a nice guy to boot. It also doesn’t hurt him any that folks all across the country adore him. But he has now taken a moment from his sport to convey a well intended and earnest message to his fellow minority in support of President Obama.
And we thinks Latinos ought to pay attention. STAT!
We marvel at a minority that attaches itself to a Republican ticket in the subconscious belief that by proclaiming their support for a club as the GOP it will merit them membership…
Here’s a news flash for those folks… being tolerated is not inclusion, nor membership.
We ain’t judging those folks – not at all. Simply stating facts.
So without further chastising, here is hottie and his spot.
Enjoy!

Posted by Native NYker in barack obama, bill clinton, cnn, hrc, human rights campaign, monica lewinsky, polictics, president clinton, president obama, shepard bill, washington dc on October 11, 2009
President Obama attended and rendered a moving speech at this years HRC dinner where he announced that the Shepard Bill will finally be signed into law.This has been a long time coming and long ass overdue!
I get all tingly hearing Hot Chocolate speak about this stuff.
Tyson: I’d Go Gay for Obama
Posted by Native NYker in bravo, president obama, topless, tyson beckford, watch what happens on September 26, 2009
His answer? President Obama! And he’d let the Mrs. watch and hold the camera!
Tyson comes across a bit more of a pussy boy if I had to place it – were he to go there… but talk about sins finding you out…
Limbaugh: Bend Over and Grab Ankles
Posted by Native NYker in doma, keith olbermann, president obama, rush limbaugh on June 17, 2009
Fat man supreme – Rush Limbaugh, tells the LGBT community to “bend over and grab the ankles.” This from a man who hasn’t seen his ankles for the most part of his adult life.
Hot Chocolate in the White House
Posted by Native NYker in barack obama, first lady, michelle obama, obama, obama family, parade magazine, president obama on January 20, 2009
The day has arrived. As a double minority (that’s gay and Latin for those of you who can’t do the math…) I never thought the day would come where we would see color move into the Caucasian house.You know some of our countries fore-fathers are turning in their graves. And I am sure its a tight maneuver.
It humbles and inspires. But most of all it is long overdue! And Hilary is in there…
So let me join the masses, if only from the comfort of my warm NY apt (yeah, I got the stove on!) in welcoming Hot Chocolate into his new digs at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
May his new home bring about the change and equality due to all Americans! And may our President and First Lady Michelle, along with their beautiful daughters – Malia and Sasha, prosper for the next eight years! (Yeah, I said eight!)
