This next song has a nice beat, features young people, but it’s just the type of garbage you don’t want your kids to listen to. The song is called Tie Me Down and it’s all about these two young guys singing about how a girl isn’t going to tie him to her. Oh no, they’ve got other girls to check out (and there are many in the video) and no time to be ‘tied down’. Also featured in the video is Ray J, you know, the guy who just completed two seasons of For the love of Ray J – supposedly looking to be just that, tied down.
Guess you can’t believe everything you see on t.v. Still, black people can we do better than this please.
Every so often, I’m out in the public talking to folks who say, “Hey Don, I like your blog” or “I’m glad you post a contrarian view on RI Future”. It is at those times I feel guilty for allowing this blog to at times go on unexpected hiatus.
Tonight, I had the pleasure of attending a Log Cabin Republican event in Providence. There is definitely something going on in the RI GOP if gay and lesbians are getting more involved and are moreso embraced by the GOP at large. You all know my stance on gay marriage, but I find when you can find common ground use it – accentuate the positive eliminate the negative if you will.
And the Log Cabins seemed to be pumped to be a part of the re-inventing of the RI GOP. Along with the Rhode Island Young Republicans, the RI GOP is going to be a force to be reckoned with.
