One of the commercials that came on was an ad campaign for the federal governments attempt at emphasizing <span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff9900;"><strong>the importance of fatherhood</strong></span>.<br /><br /><span style="color:#66ffff;">Since most of the non-exsistent fathers are black</span>, of course a black guy is featured in the commercial, but quite frankly, its one of the cutest commercials I've seen thus far. It gets the point across while still maintaining a light-spirited attitude and I loved it.<br /><br /><span style="color:#33ff33;">It's commercials like these that make me wish I didn't fit the typical minority stereotype of only having a single parent. I used to get extremely depressed over it, but my mom is the best mom/dad/best friend I could ever have, so whatever.<br /></span><br />Brava to whoever thought of this concept. Simply brilliant.

Are they trying to inspire kids to wear this shit? Or torture their unknowing animals with this as their everyday wardrobe?<br /><br />I don't know what is on the minds of the toy makers these days. <span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 255);">Not only is the concept messed up, but the fashion itself is whack and outdated.</span> Lets dissect this picture:<br /><br />1) The glittery head band - I'm pretty sure the last time someone wore one of these was in 1996...if that. And if their going for the Auberella-headband-look...well..that doesn't work either.<br /><br />2) The quaff- Between the tumor on the top of its head and the pink and white highlights...<br /><br />3) The gold studded collar - bling?<br /><br />4) The pseudo-leopard print shirt and the tight jeans - no comment.<br /><br />5) The black platform shoes. All four of them. On a dog.<br /><br />Aaaaanndd on top of all of this, the commercial is even more absurd! I tried to find it on YouTube, but no luck, so please look out for it. In the commercial, Tutu....or Toffee exclaims "<span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">I love my tail in these jeans!</span></span>" Wow. Really now?<br /><br />What's even worse? They named the dogs Tisha, Toffee and Tutu. And the slogan is "Unleash Your Doggie Diva." And you can even add them on facebook!<br /><br />This is def that kinda thing where some 40something, geezer looking, old-school, company exec tried to push what she thought was cool on the rest of us.

Keith Olbermann is the man. He breaks down the facts like no other political analyst ever.<br /><br />Tonight on Countdown, Mr. Olbermann discussed the passing of Proposition 8 in California. He brings up so many excellent points about the absolute hypocrisy that fuels not letting same-sex couples get married. He's the man. I have no idea how anyone could actually argue against him.<br /><br />I mean, let's be honest, why do people even care? If someone wants to love someone else, I'm all for it! Love is love, people, and Lord knows that this world could use more of it. There are too many pressing issues that actually need our attention and gay marriage is not one of them. Gay marriage is not even an issue. <br /><br />Ugh.
