BLACK RADIO PERSONALITY CALLS MICHELLE OBAMA UGLY

WDIA radio should know a little about Black History being the first Black formatted station in the country. 62 years ago when there was no such thing as Black radio personalities Bert Ferguson a white man took a very unpopular position at the time and placed Blacks on the air.

For many years the station was known as the communication point for blacks in the mid south area. WDIA was also known as the "Goodwill" station because it served the needs of the community by providing a baseball team, The Teen Town Singers, The Goodwill and Starlite Reviews. The personalities were known in the community because they were involved in the community and not just voices behind a mic as such is the case of the present day WDIA.

The present day WDIA has a morning host in the person of Joe Louis Jones AKA Booby Ojay that brags about not voting, That spends each day discussing sex when there are so many other subjects that the Black community needs to discuss. When I decided to go to 862 Baltimore to raise money for the Poole family Joe Louis Jones made the statement on air that going to the community was "Old School".

I guess even though Clear Channel has thousands of dollars in remote equipment parked on its lot if it does not see a way to turn a profit there is no need of cranking the equipment. Instead of Joe Louis Jones telling the community the truth that his company no longer allows for the station to get involved with the community he wants to suggest that serving the community is "Old School".

But what really broke the camels back as far as this Black station whose talk show host have played down Barack Obama running for president was when Jeff Lee who was sitting in for Joe Louis Jones made the statement that "Michelle Obama is a very unattractive woman". This comment by Lee set off a barrage of calls both on his station and on my radio program sating how wrong and out of place he was. Many women stated that they were insulted that he would degrade a Black woman who has become an example of Black womanhood for many young Black females.

In an era where young Blacks only images of success are booty shaking and hip hop, Or some one running up and down a football field or a basketball court, One would think that the historical Black radio station would find it an insult to demean a woman who loves her husband and her children,who have worked hard, Who educated themselves, And have reached a level of success that no other Blacks have made in history.

It's sad when Blacks in media can only be buffoons and clowns and only speak of whose screwing who, When Black poli-trick-ans and Black preachers are screwing us all. Maybe the reason that when Bev Johnson does her news in the morning its a rewrite of the CA is because non of WDIA's employees are involved in the community and never attend a function unless it has to do with drinking and dancing. Blacks in media have a greater role to play then to be the court jesters for white media corporations whose only concern in the black community is how much money can we make from those niggers.

AND BY THE WAY, JEFF THERE MUST NOT BE ANY MIRRORS AT DIA

IS CLEAR CHANNEL USING WDIA'S BLACK PERSONALITIES TO DUMB DOWN THE BLACK COMMUNITY AND TO DESTROY THE BLACK VOTE FOR BARACK OBAMA SINCE THE COMPANY HAS STRONG TIES TO GEORGE BUSH AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY?

HERE'S THE CONNECTION:

Bush Connections
"The vice chairman of Clear Channel is Tom Hicks. ... When Mr. Bush was governor of Texas, Mr. Hicks was chairman of the University of Texas Investment Management Company, called Utimco, and Clear Channel's chairman, Lowry Mays, was on its board. Under Mr. Hicks, Utimco placed much of the university's endowment under the management of companies with strong Republican Party or Bush family ties. In 1998 Mr. Hicks purchased the Texas Rangers in a deal that made Mr. Bush a multimillionaire." ,
"In addition, Hicks steered a controversial scheme to use the University of Texas' $13 billion endowment for private investment. Among the beneficiaries were the Carlyle Group, the arms investment firm tied to both George Bush Snr and the bin Laden family, and George W Bush's controversial Harken Oil drilling project in Bahrain."[8]
[edit]
Political contributions
Data released by the Center for Responsive Politics in early 2004 revealed that Clear Channel executives donated $42,200 to Bush compared to $1,750 to Democrat Presidential candidate John Kerry. Clear Channel's political action committee contributed 77% of their $334,501 in federal contributions to Republicans. [9]
In the 2006 election cycle, Clear Channel gave $492,250 to federal candidates through its political action committee - 40% to Democrats and 60% to Republicans. [2]

A CHANGE IS GONNA COME

Over 84,000 in an arena and millions across The United States Of America listened as Barack Obama accepted the nomination from the Democratic Party to be its choice to become the next President of this country.



People of all races and from all walks of life listened as Obama spoke with authority about his plans to make this country a better place for all including cutting taxes. Obama spoke of making it possible for all children to get a college education and of hiring teachers and paying them more but holding students to a higher standard.

The man that many believe on January 20,2009 will be sworn in to lead this country stated that this country can not take 4 more years of what this country has received in the last 8. He also attacked McCain for his record of supporting George Bush 90% of the time,stating "What does it say about your judgement when you you think Bush has been right 90% of the time". Barack Obama stated that he wants Americans to have the same kind of insurance that Congress gives itself.

Barack Obama stood tall and spoke with firmness as a man who has a plan for change should stand and not like an old man who wants to hold on to the politics of the past and a legacy of failure. Yes Hillary I must agree with you, NO WAY, NO HOW, NO MCAIN !!!!!!!

DOES THIS DRUNK MAKE YOU REPUBLICANS PROUD?

I know that George Bush hates to think that his legacy will be one of killing our men and women in a war built on a lie that has also destroyed the Republican Party. And that while he was rebuilding a country that he ordered to be bombed the citzens of New Orleans were left homeless and treated as men and women without a country. But does he have to let the world know that he is also a drunk?

These pictures were taken of Bush while he attended the Olympics

NO WAY,NO HOW, NO MCCAIN !!!

Hillery Clinton tonight gave her support to Barack Obama in his bid to become the President of the United States. Clinton called for unity among democrats and reminded her supporters that the campaign for the white House was not about her,but returning democratic leadership to the White House. She stated that when the last ad has aired and the polls have closed its all about the people.

I noticed in her opening statement that he declared "I'm a proud mother, I'm a proud democrat,I'm a proud senator from New York,I'm a proud American.I'm a proud supporter of Barack Obama". Bill Clinton was present I wonder why she didn't state that she was a proud wife?

IS PASTOR MILTON HAWKINS A MAN OF GOD OR A MAN WHO SHOULD BE BEHIND BARS?

Since I broke the story on last week concerning the lawsuit filed by Mrs. Louise Patterson widow of Bishop G.E. Patterson to protect her assets as CEO of Bountiful Blessing Inc which she believes is being intentionally comingled with the funds of Temple of Deliverance COGIC,Some members and former members belive that the current pastor Milton R. Hawkins may be guilty of embezzlement of church funds.

Hawkins current salary is $33,000 per month which he himself set without ever having a church meeting or a conversation with the membership. Hawkins has total control of the church's check book which officials state had $4 million dollar in it when he was appointed pastor by Jurisdictional Bishop Jerry Maynard of Nashville.

Hawkins and Maynard are very close friends and in an usual move within COGIC Hawkins has made Maynard a member of the Board of Directors of TOD. I must also note that Maynard is the only other signer of checks beside Hawkins,and while serving as Pastor before appointing Hawkins as Pastor paid himself $40,000 a month.

Some are wondering how Hawkins who was the pastor of New Jerusalem COGIC located at 7361 Linwood in Detroit Mi with a membership of less than 300 members and a salary of about $50,000 a year has been able to purchase a large lot (Pictured) at 6054 Snows Hill Cove for over $200,000 an is building a $1,000,000 home on that lot. Members are wondering where Hawkins acquired the down payment for the property and the down payment on a home which has a 30 year mortgage,especially since he purchased the property after only being in Memphis for 2 months. Is it possible that Pastor Hawkins used church funds to make these purchases?

The property and the house being built is in the name of Hawkins and his wife Catherine and not in the name of TOD which would make it illegal to be call the parsonage. If he used a church check to buy personal property for himself in the thousands of dollars he is guilty of embezzlement. If he deposited a church written out to him into a personal account that is not his salary again he has embezzled church funds. The church funds are non taxable funds being used for personal use which I think that the IRS would frown on.

Some church members are also concerned about the fact that since he has been pastor he has purchased two new Mercedes Benz,One for himself and one for his wife. It's wondered why he needed a Mercedes Benz seeing that he took possession of a Benz driven by Bishop G.E. Patterson which was in the name of Tod.

The Jurisdiction had publicly given Bishop Patterson a Limo as a gift, But Hawkins has given that car to his good friend Maynard without any regards for Mrs. Patterson or the members of TOD. Even with the lawsuit now being public knowledge Hawkins has refused to appraise his congregation of what is going on. It's easy to understand why Hawkins is refusing to allow Louise Patterson to see the books of TOD which she has every right to see as a Board member of the church,It's because Hawkins has used TOD funds for his personal use that could bring both civil and criminal charges. Is pastor Hawkins a man of God,Or a man that should be behind bars?

STATE REPRESENTATIVE ARRESTED IN MISSISSIPPI ROAD BLOCK

State Representative Goffrey Al Hardaway was arrested early Sunday morning in a road block set up by the Olive Branch Police Department. The road block was set uo to check driver license and car insurance. After being stopped Hardaway couldn't find his insurance card and his driver's license came back suspended.

The State representative was transported to jail where he posted a $1,000 bond. Hardaway is to return to court on September 23,2008 at 9AM.

LOUISE PATTERSON DOING RIGHT THING TO PROTECT THE LEGACY OF HER HUSBAND FROM THE HANDS OF PULPIT PIMP MILTON HAWKINS

In the interest of saving the assets of the company that her husband left her from thievery,Louise Patterson has done what has had to be done and that is to file suit against Milton Hawkins who is the current pastor of Temple of Deliverence COGIC . Betty Speight,The bookkeeper,and the church itself.

Officials within the church state that since his arrival last year that Hawkins has intentionally co-mingled funds belonging to Bountiful Blessings Ministries Inc. With the funds of Temple Of Deliverence.

The lawsuit very clearly states that Bountiful Blessings was incorporated on November 28,1967 as a Tennessee nonprofit corporation where TOD was incorporated April 6,1992. Where TOD is a local connectional church of COGIC, COGIC has no direct or lawful control over Bountiful Blessings,and has no rights to lawful rights to appoint members to the board.

The lawsuit goes to show that Louise Patterson is a board member of TOD thus has the right to review the financal condition of the church. Patterson believing that the $33,000 a month saleried pastor is stealing money that is solely rightfully hers as she is the CEO of Bountiful Blessings Inc. she has filed a lawsuit for the sole purpose of having the records shown for the last 5 years.

Lawyers for Hawkins have refused to show all the records ,in fact in one letter (Which I have a copy of) Patterson is told that they have reviewed the information that she wants but don't think it has anything to do with what she is looking for.

It is wise for Patterson to want to see the books since hawkins has sole control of TOD's check book which was worth over 44 million dollars when he arrived last year. Some members are concerned as to how a man who only had 150 people at his last church making about $50,000 a year can afford to spend over $300,000 on land at 6054 Snow Hills cove and is on the process of building a $1,000,000 home on it. They are also concern as to how he's been able to purchase not one but two Mercedes Benz in less than a year. I must note that no meeting has ever been called to give pastor hawkins a salary but since he has control of all the money he set his own salary.

So in my opinion it;s in the best interest of Patterson that she demand to see what many within the church already knows that hawkins is stealing money fron Bountiful Blessings. By the way TOD members did you know that on last year when Mrs Patterson held a concert in memory of Bishop Patterson Hawkins demanded and received $30,000 for the use of the building.

LETTER FROM MEMBER OF TEMPLE OF DELIVERENCE SETS NEW PASTOR STRAIGHT

Letter from one of the members of TOD to the new Pastor.August 21, 2008Superintendent Hawkins,

This is truly sad! I have heard so much on the radio and seen so much in the news about this lawsuit. I felt like I needed to say something now.I have tried to keep quiet for a long time and give you a chance to come to your senses, but it hasn’t worked. I figured that at some point in time, he will realize that after leading a church for 17 years in Detroit and only being able to grow that congregation to 150 members, that this was a dream come true and he would accordingly approach this opportunity with humility and grace.

I figured that since he knew in his heart that Bishop Patterson never intended for him to be pastor of TOD, he would try his best to be true to Bishop Patterson’s legacy. I figured that since Louise Patterson had been the primary advocate for him to be pastor – a move she now deeply regrets – he would definitely be gracious toward her. I figured that given the way in which New Jerusalem was nowhere near being in the top 30 churches for Detroit, he would be appreciative of now being pastor of a church regarded not only regionally, but internationally.

All of my guess work and wishes and hopeful assumptions proved to be wrong.Like so many others, I am offended by your frequent flights into pettiness, your lack of humility, your verbal attacks from the pulpit, your disrespect for Mrs. G. E. Patterson, and your disregard for the wishes and insights of the very man whose legacy you claim to continue. I would just hope that you don’t do the stereotypical thing and spiritualize business matters by saying that this lawsuit is the work of the devil. I’ve been COGIC all of my life and I know the drill when folks start asking specific questions about where 20 years of building fund money has been going. People get real defensive and they give a business question a spiritual answer. That said, please don’t stand in the pulpit and demonize Sister Patterson for asking logical questions through her attorney (I should underscore the fact that you secured legal counsel long before Sister Lou even thought about it).

Those questions are Where has the Bountiful Blessings money been going?; Why aren’t you respecting her as the elected President of Bountiful Blessings and providing her with financial records of withdrawals from Bountiful Blessings accounts?; Under what authority are you making changes to these accounts without the permission of the Board of Directors of Bountiful Blessings? LET’S BE CLEAR – this lawsuit is a request for financial records you have not shared which would help explain where Bountiful Blessings’ funds have been going and why donations to Bountiful Blessings are instead being redirected to the Temple of Deliverance accounts. There would be no lawsuit at this point if financial records had been shared with the Bountiful Blessings board. Let’s give the lesson that you continue to overlook. Bountiful Blessings, Inc. and Temple of Deliverance COGIC are two separate entities. They have 2 separate charters with the state and 2 separate 501(c)(3) designations with the IRS.

Bishop Patterson was the founder of both and served as pastor of TOD and President of BB. And over and over again, he said he never wanted one person to be over both organizations after his demise.Like many other ministers who employ this practice today, decades ago Bishop Patterson understood the need and worth of keeping his personal ministry (Bountiful Blessings, Inc.) separate from the church (Temple of Deliverance COGIC). In case you missed it, there is not one nationally-renowned minister of the gospel I can think of who doesn’t use this practice where the ministry is kept separate from the church. Potter’s House is different from T. D. Jakes Ministry; Greater St. Stephen’s is different from Paul Morton Ministries; and the list goes on.

Bishop Patterson not only didn’t want one person leading both organizations, but he also didn’t want both organizations to exist as one! If he did, why didn’t he legally move the assets of Bountiful Blessings in under Temple of Deliverance? The fact that you are making a play to control Bountiful Blessings shows that you have no sensitivity to your own family’s history!! Where would they (Bishops W. A. and G. E.) side on this issue? What would they think?Let me help you with this as it relates to Bishop G. E.G. E. Patterson left the Church of God in Christ in 1974. He didn’t leave of his own freewill. He left because he was forced out by COGIC’s General Board which was prepared to move against him and Bishop W. A. Patterson, removing them from Holy Temple COGIC. G. E. Patterson left the church because if he didn’t leave both him and his father would be forced out from everything they had worked so hard to build at Holy Temple.

Fast forward – 13 years of exile from the denomination. When Bishop G. E. is basically asked to come back into the Church of God in Christ by Bishop J. O. Patterson, Sr., he brings the churches he had founded and established during his years of ecclesiastical independence with him. But, he leaves that organization, Bountiful Blessings, out and apart from the denomination.Do you get it? Bishop Patterson had learned a valuable lesson with the threat of him being pushed out of COGIC back in 1974. He retained HIS ministry under Bountiful Blessings and kept that organization separate from COGIC. If things ever happened again, he had insulated himself from the whims and caprices of COGIC leadership by maintaining his identity and ensuring that he would never have to relive being threatened out of what he or his family had worked hard to build.

The idea is that Bountiful Blessings would exist as a home for him even if Temple of Deliverance was taken away (one thing that you learn is that when you’re in a denomination, at any point you can be removed).Bishop Patterson became the Presiding Bishop of the Church of God in Christ, but HE NEVER CHANGED THE SET-UP WITH TEMPLE OF DELIVERANCE AND BOUNTIFUL BLESSINGS BEING SEPARATE ENTITIES.

Anyone who says differently – including your attorney – is either misinformed, uninformed or lying.Bountiful Blessings and Temple of Deliverance are blood relatives, but they are two separate people. Bountiful Blessings bought all of the audio-visual equipment for that church; Bountiful Blessings purchased much of the other equipment and furniture in the church; Bountiful Blessings owns the land. But make not mistake about it, Bishop Patterson never intended for these two organizations to be one because it flies in the face of his personal history and his interest in ensuring that Bountiful Blessings would always be protected. If you had any insight into his heart and mind, you would know that one of his major concerns was the way in which denominations – COGIC, AME, Methodist, you name it - would soak up every viable asset after a pastor’s death.

I’m insulted because you have come along trying to lay claim to Bountiful Blessings which is a direct assault upon the legacy of Bishop Patterson and what he wanted! And I’m ill at the stomach with those individuals who know this to be true, but are too interested in being in your good graces to say it to you. (In fact, let me take a moment and say one thing. I have never written anything disparaging or even truthful about you on a blog or anywhere online. And the only reason I’m not saying this to your face is that it’s too long.).Brother Hawkins, do the right thing. Recognize that you’re already over your head with TOD (as anyone would be coming after a man like Bishop) and what needs to be done there; trying to be over BB is irresponsible. Being the pastor at TOD is more than preaching on Sunday; you need some vision to carry that church forward. Finally, respect the wishes of your uncle and leave Bountiful Blessings to be handled by the organization’s board. Start your own ministry – Milton Hawkins Ministries. There is more to say, but I will leave it with this: WHEN PEOPLE WRITE A CHECK TO BOUNTIFUL BLESSINGS AND PUT IT IN THE TEMPLE OF DELIVERANCE OFFERING BAKSET, IT IS WRONG FOR YOU TO GIVE ORDERS TO STAMP THAT BOUNTIFUL BLESSINGS CHECK FOR A TEMPLE OF DELIVERANCE ACCOUNT WITHOUT THE CONSENT OF THAT INDIVIDUAL.

Signed,Robert White

PS – If you don’t have an advisor, confidant, friend or brother who has had this kind of conversation with you, you need to find some new people to hang around.

THE CASKETS WERE NOT EMPTY

You are correct when you say that the Medical Examiner has not released the charred remains of 7 victims of a tragic fire that took place last Saturday at 862 Baltimore. You are also correct that it may take at least 8 weeks and DNA to ID the remains. You are correct that even though the remains are still in the morgue that 7 caskets were laid out for the funeral services for those who lost their lives so horribly.

But you are wrong if you think that the caskets were empty. Each casket represented the life of persons who were all loved and cared for by family and friends alike. I heard person after person that took the podium at Melrose High School on yesterday share memories not of the death, But the life of Melissa Poole and her children,her niece and nephew. I heard Mrs. Ruby Payne principal of Hanley Elementary speak of how Melissa was the parent that every teacher wants a parent to be. She spoke of how she was always at the school sharing not only with her children but with other children as well.

I listen as citizens from Orange Mound spoke of how mannerable the children were,and how they always were clean and polite no matter where they lived. I heard not only Mayor Wharton and Kriner Cash speak of the heroism of Deon Poole who gave his life to attempt to save the lives of others,and who saved his pregnant girlfriend and his child she was carrying,But I heard his father speak of just how proud he was.

Even when the remains of a person is in a casket what more do you have than memories. Looking at a lifeless body laid out only reminds you of the life that that person lived. Nothing can be said at that point that can really make a difference it's all about memories.

When the remains are released from the Medical Examiner they will be placed in the caskets and buried,but the caskets may be a little crowed because they are already full of memories. Yes the caskets on yesterday had no bodies inside but they were far from being empty, for they all contained memories.

HUNDREDS COME TO SAY FAREWELL

With 7 caskets laid out across the front of the Greater Hope Baptist Church Family Life Center hundreds of people of all colors entered many with tears in their eyes as they pass by the containers holding memories of lives taken to soon. Funeral services will be held on Saturday starting at 12 noon at the auditorium of Melrose High School.

TONEY YOU KNEW BETTER DIDN'T YOU?

As the head of the homicide division of the Memphis Police Department Toney Armstrong should have known that it was wrong to hang and pass around a pair of size 55 1/2 pink panties. The panties were given to detectives who had easy cases to solve and were told that their case was as easy as getting in a woman's panties.

It seems now that Armstrong's jaws are tight because Homicide detective Caroline Mason has filed a Federal EEOC multimillion dollar lawsuit against him, The City of Memphis, And the Memphis Police Department. Sources within the department state that their has been a constant flow of traffic from the 12th floor to city hall by PST's carrying information back and forth to Lorraine Essex in the Human resources department for the city. Those same sources state that other female detectives are being prepped to state that the panties were not offensive to them. This means nothing because it does not matter if there was a group offense for Mason to be able to sue.

Sources also state that all the Chiefs stayed late yesterday into the evening and that Major Joe Scott has plans to today to meet with homicide officers to discuss a tightening of the rules with a zero tolerance for being late and other minor infractions that normally is not paid attention to. The plan is to make it not so employee friendly for Mason by being hard on her co- workers. Sources on the 12th floor state that since Larry Godwin plans to ad 3 new chiefs that officers are squirming to kiss his ass and has let it be known that it was Armstrong whose idea it was to bring in the panties.

Sources also state that Mason has pictures of various Homicide detectives,including men wearing the panties. Boy I would love to get my hands on those. maybe they'll piss mason off enough that she will let me have a copy.

TONY JUST IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW THE FEDERAL RULES:

Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination that violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Title VII applies to employers with 15 or more employees, including state and local governments. It also applies to employment agencies and to labor organizations, as well as to the federal government.

Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute sexual harassment when this conduct explicitly or implicitly affects an individual's employment, unreasonably interferes with an individual's work performance, or creates an intimidating, hostile, or offensive work environment.

Sexual harassment can occur in a variety of circumstances, including but not limited to the following:

The victim as well as the harasser may be a woman or a man. The victim does not have to be of the opposite sex.

The harasser can be the victim's supervisor, an agent of the employer, a supervisor in another area, a co-worker, or a non-employee.

The victim does not have to be the person harassed but could be anyone affected by the offensive conduct.

Unlawful sexual harassment may occur without economic injury to or discharge of the victim.
The harasser's conduct must be unwelcome.

It is helpful for the victim to inform the harasser directly that the conduct is unwelcome and must stop. The victim should use any employer complaint mechanism or grievance system available.

When investigating allegations of sexual harassment, EEOC looks at the whole record: the circumstances, such as the nature of the sexual advances, and the context in which the alleged incidents occurred. A determination on the allegations is made from the facts on a case-by-case basis.

Prevention is the best tool to eliminate sexual harassment in the workplace. Employers are encouraged to take steps necessary to prevent sexual harassment from occurring. They should clearly communicate to employees that sexual harassment will not be tolerated. They can do so by providing sexual harassment training to their employees and by establishing an effective complaint or grievance process and taking immediate and appropriate action when an employee complains.

It is also unlawful to retaliate against an individual for opposing employment practices that discriminate based on sex or for filing a discrimination charge, testifying, or participating in any way in an investigation, proceeding, or litigation under Title VII.

COMING SUNDAY: WHAT THE LAWSUIT REALLY SAYS

ON SUNDAY I WILL POST THE ENTIRE LAWSUIT THAT LOUISE PATTERSON FILED AGAINST MILTON HAWKINS,BETTY SPEIGHT,AND TEMPLE OF DELIVERANCE

WITH THE HELP OF PEOPLE OF ALL RACES THE THADDEUS MATTHEWS SHOW RAISED $5,522.00 FOR THE BALTIMORE 7

This morning as I listen to Joe Louis Jones AKA Bobby O'Jay of WDIA take a stab at me for broadcasting live at the scene of the death of 7 persons killed by a fire at 862 Baltimore Street he stated that " WDIA does nor believe in going to the streets or raising money at a house.That's Old School". Well I am grateful for those who still support the old school notion of I am my brothers keeper,an who came out on Thursday to support a family that not only lost 7 family members but everything that they owned.

With the help of citizens of all colors "The Thaddeus Matthews Show" was able to raise $5,522.00 in just 2 hours. I was humbled to see Blacks and Whites who daily listen to my show drive and walk up making donations to this family that didn't care about the old school just thankful that people cared.

There were no people of status that gave today just common people that didn't see color but a need. The highlight of the day for me was when about 10 White female teenagers from Harding Academy's volley ball team showed up and wanted to pray for the Poole family and for the City of Memphis. I watched as Blacks and Whites joined hands and prayed for God to bless the Poole family. I listened as a 17 year old who lives miles from Orange Mound and most likely does not know the feelings of poverty asked God to bless all of Memphis.

>We speak sometimes of the negatives of this city and many of us feel that there is no hope,But today I saw that the hope of this city and this world is not in those of us who have experienced racism and sometime hold on to it's bitter coat tail, But our hope is in our youth that know very little of racism and judge a book by it's cover. I saw a course in love today that many of us who are adults should take pattern after of.

If the death of the Baltimore 7 creates an atmosphere of love within this city that allows us to put hate and racism on hold than what greater purpose for these persons to have given their lives for. I was so proud at the end of my show to present Calvin Crawford the brother of Melissa Poole with the $5,522.00. There are so many shows that I do that after the show,It's just another show. But today I feel humbled to just to have helped someone in need. Thanks to all of you who still believe in the old school.

I HAVE POSTED THE FUNERAL PROGRAM THAT WILL BE PRESENTED AT SATURDAY'S SERVICES FOR THE MANY YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTEND. CLICK TO ENLARGE AND COPY.

FIRE STRIKES AGAIN AT 862 BALTIMORE

Today fire fighters returned to the Orange Mound resident on Baltimore street where on Saturday 7 persons lost there lives. Electrical wires leading to the rear of the house located at 862 Baltimore started to smoke and spark,The wires from the electric pole leading to the house has to be disconnected.

Even though on Monday the Memphis Fire Department stated that the cause of the fire could not be determined I watched as investigators from the fire department and the Tennessee Bomb and Arson Squad checked out the utility box on the side of the house. I overheard one investigator state that the lone box wasn't adequate for the large house.

Stanley Crawford who lived downstairs in at the Baltimore address states that instead of the triplex building having a box for each unit all three apartments were powered off of one box. Crawford also feels that since his utility bill was part of his rent and paid by slumlord Charles Frank Holland that perhaps that the wiring was purposely designed to cut the cost that would have to be paid to MLGW by Holland.

TO FURTHER HELP RAISE FUNDS FOR THE POOLE FAMILY I WILL BE BROADCASTING MY RADIO SHOW LIVE ON THURSDAY FROM 862 BALITMORE STARTING AT 4PM ON AM990 KWAM

CITY OF MEMPHIS AND MEMPHIS POLICE DEPARTMENT SUED OVER PAIR OF LARGE PINK PANTIES

Homicide Detective Caroline Mason has filed a multimillion dollar Federal EEOC sexual harassment lawsuit against the City of Memphis and the Memphis Police Department. Mason claims that for months a pair of size 55 1/2 pink panties have been passed around the homicide office to the detective handling easy cases. The panties represent cases that were as easy to solve as getting into a woman's panties. Mason I'm told also has pictures of the panties hanging in the office.

Mason who has been harassed by her superiors was moved several months ago from homicide to Missing Persons, and has now been returned to homicide. City Attorney Elbert Jefferson was served on last week with the complaint and it's stated that mayor Willie Herenton went ballistic when he found out Police Director Larry Godwin was stupid enough to allow this practice to take place.

It's reported that Toney Armstrong and Lt.Mark Miller who head up the division have both been the recipient of the pink panties. mason is stated to complain of how offensive the panties being passed around and was ridiculed, thus the lawsuit. How much more must the citizens of Memphis take of Larry Godwin's misfits? By the way I asked whose pink panties were they that were being passed around and someone replied if they were a size 55 1/2 they must belong to homicide detective Connie Justice.

I'M WORKING ON GETTING MY HANDS ON A COPY OF THE COMPLAINT

LANDLORD LIES ABOUT RENT BEING OWED

Charles Frank Holland whose the landlord at 862 Baltimore where 7 people died Saturday morning in a fire and who owes thousands in city and county property taxes told reporters today that the family had not paid rent in two months.

But according to a rent receipt given to me by Stanley Crawford who lived downstairs and a relative of those killed in the fire he paid the rent on August 4,2008. The rent shows that Stanley paid $400 to mark Williams a employee of Holland's and who was the person monthly who picked up the rental payment.

While the Memphis Fire Department has closed their investigation stating that they can not determined the cause of the fire the family received a call from an out of town fire expert who is willing to come to the city and check out the cause. I have also heard through a source that the Fire department has considered dozing down the building located on Baltimore. It's hopeful that this is not done before the true cause of the fire can be determined. The family complained for months about the outlets and the breaker box and believe that Holland lack of truly fixing the problem is the cause of the fire and the deaths.

I received a call today from a former employee of Holland who also owns The Shelby Times and Jett Beauty College stating that it was the practice of The slum lord to only fix houses enough to squash complaints. But as the receipt shows he lied about rent being owed.

BISHOP'S WIFE HAS TO SUE TO PROTECT INCOME FROM HIS MINISTRIES

Louise Patterson widow of Bishop G. E. Patterson has filed a lawsuit against Milton Hawkins the new pastor of the church in which her and her late husband built. Also included in the lawsuit is the bookkeeper Betty Spight.

The lawsuit filed by Patterson is to protect the income from Bountiful Blessings Inc. a separate entity from Temple of Deliverance Inc. Bountiful Blessings Inc owns the rights to G.E. Patterson's name along with his ministry of tapes,books,and the broadcast on BET which cost $100,000 a month. Bountiful Blessings Inc. also owns Podium Records and WBBP radio station.

Sources state that Hawkins has worked to block Ms. Patterson's income by changing the name of the book store within the church from Bountiful Blessings to Temple of Deliverance. Milton also changed the credit card machine as well. During the life of Bishop Patterson members of the church were allowed to sow into the Bountiful Blessing ministry on Sunday morning. member could make a contribution to both the church and the ministry. But Hawkins has changed that and I'm told that if any check comes through with Bountiful Blessings printed on it,it is stamped in the back with the Temple of Deliverance bank stamp and sent to the bank.

Louise Patterson who receives a salary of $27,000 a month will soon be cut off from that income,while many in the church thought that it was a lifelong salary it was only to be paid for two years. So Mrs. Patterson is concerned about her lost of income from her salary and what I'm told minimum of $20,000 a Sunday in contributions that once were made to Bountiful Blessings Inc.

At the time of Bishop Patterson's death the church had $4 million in its account. Many within the church are concerned about Hawkins whose paid $33,000 per month and has control of the check book purchasing land at over $300,000 to build a $1 million dollar home. many believe that Hawkins is using the church's money as his own personal bank account.

The lawsuit does not name the church as a party, It's believed that Louise Patterson loves the church that for 40 years her and her husband worked to build but will not allow Hawkins who pastored a church in Detroit with only a little over a 100 members come into Memphis and steal from her. I might also note that the property that Temple of Deliverance sits on belongs to Bountiful Blessings Inc, where if Louise Patterson was to so choose could large enough rent that she could get thousands of dollars per month,But her sole desire is to just get what her husband left solely to her, Bountiful Blessing Inc. and its proceeds.

HAS WEST MEMPHIS KILLER CROSSED THE RIVER TO KILL AGAIN?

Sources are telling me that Erik Sammis the West Memphis police officer who gunned down 12 year old DeAunta Farrow last year has been hired by the Millington Police Department and is working the streets.

Why would the mayor and Police chief hire an officer with such a bad history in law enforcement and who will bring negative publicity to the small town where the current mayor is running for re-election. He must feel as though he doesn't need the Black vote to win.

BE CAREFUL CITIZENS OF MILLIGTON YOU HAVE A TRAINED KILLER ON THE LOOSE

POLICE OFFICER WAS STONE DRUNK AT THE TIME OF HIS DEATH AND WAS HE DRINKING TO GET THE COURAGE TO KILL DEXTER COX?

In the confession of Dexter Cox concerning the shooting of police officer Edward Vidulich on January 28,2008 at the officers home located at 3454 Shiloh in Frayser,Cox states that he return that fateful night at the request of Vidulich after visiting the home on Friday night January 26,2008. The first visit was to tell Vidulich who had broken into his home stealing guns and pictures of him and his wife having sex with other people which included Vidulich having cucumbers placed in his anus.

Not wanting the pictures circulating explains why Gayle Vidulich allowed a gold toothed young black man into her home to wait on the arrival of her husband. The confession also states that Vidulich was willing to pay Cox to testify and to get the pictures back. Even though Vidulich called the police out to his home to make a report concerning the fact of the guns being in the hands of an Antonio Taylor whose name was given by Cox no mention was made of the stolen pictures. The confession states that Cox was told to come back on Sunday (january 28,2008) to get paid.

In the confession Cox states that he returned that Sunday night and was allowed in by Vidulich who he says was intoxicated. Cox states that Vidulich offered him on $60.00 for the pictures which he told the officer was not enough. After telling Vidulich that the $60 was not enough he states that the officer became upset spitting and getting in his face. He goes on to tell the nearly 7 foot 283 lb police officer that he's going to tell police that he was willing to pay for his testimony.

At this point Cox states that Vidulich became enraged and came at him with a knife the two tussled and Cox got up when Vidulich ran him into the dining room table. fearing for his life from the massive intoxicated man Cox got Vidulich's gun that was nearby and shot him twice. If this is the truth as stated in Cox's confession this seems to be a case of self defense and not murder.

Looking at the Medical Examiner's report what Cox states could very well be true. According to the toxicology report taken after Vidulich's death the police officer was heavily intoxicated to a point that he would have been hard for him to make any rational decision,and to act very irrational.

The toxicology shows that in a peripheral blood test Vidulich tested POSITIVE for Ethanol which is the chemical within drinking alcohol. The quantitation taken by the police officer registered 140 mg/dl. The E- Medicine website dealing with Alcohol Intoxication and its Signs and Symptoms state At 100 mg/dl the following occurs "Slight slurring of speech,loss of control of fine moter skills.confusion when faced with tasks requiring THINKING, EMOTIONALLY UNSTABLE, and inappropriate laughter". Another toxicology test was alSo given where a "Vitreous" specimen was taken. This is where a test is given from behind the eyeball. the test tested POSITIVE with a reading of 124 mg/dl in quantitation, No doubt Edward Vidulich was crazy drunk.

This very fact proves that Vidulich was out of control and easy to enrage, why would the police officer be stone drunk knowing that he had invited Cox to his house? Vidulich opened the door and allowed Cox into his home, did he have a plan already in mind to attempt to scare or kill the young man? Did Vidulich offer the $60 dollars knowing that the small amount of money would trigger a reaction in Cox? Why would the police officer have his weapon so close by if he was not expecting trouble? It must be noted that the knife that Cox states that Vidulich was trying to stab him with was found beside the officer's body in the kitchen where the confession states that the tussle took place.

As I have been told by sources within the MPD, Police Director Larry Godwin who stated that Vidulich was his best friend has used his position to suppress evidence that would prove that Cox acted in self defense in shooting the massive police officer. I've told that Lt. Mark Miller told certain Homicide investigators to withhold certain information such as the reports that were taken from two young men,one claiming to have knowledge of Vidulich paying boys for sex and the statement of Elliot who stated according to police sources that Vidulich raped him. I spoke with Elliot's mother who stated to me that her son had told her that Vidulich had gotten into the shower with him after doing some work for him.

In the narrative portion of the autopsy it shows that Lt.Mark Miller was the Homicide detective that called the medical examiner to the scene which can explain how he was able to be the officer that sources state was going the bidding of Godwin in putting together a plan to save Vidulich from his perverted lifestyle from going public. On Fox 13 it was shown that officers took Vidulich's computer out of the house. This is an important fact because on the hard drive is believed to be the original pictures spoken of by Cox by a digital camera.

The lifestyle of Vidulich and the pictures are only important because it shows that perhaps the officer had a motive to silence Cox and the alcohol that he was drinking was to give him the courage to carry it out.

The autopsy also shows that Vidulich was shot twice in the face,Once in the mid face,and in the left cheek. This leads me to believe Cox was standing way off when the shots were fired. Due to the massive size of the police officer his body was have been an easier target if not engaged in a struggle.

It's hard me me to believe that a jury will be able to accept the MPD's account for the shooting beyond a reasonable doubt. The attorney for Cox Claiborne Ferguson does not plan to accept any plea and wants the case to go to trial. Ferguson will want the computer to be examined by an outside computer expert to see if the hard drive has been tampered with. knowing the answer to certain questions Ferguson plans to place Lt. mark Miller and other Homicide detectives on the stand to see if they will lie under oath. I am assured that the pictures will be produced at the trial along with Elliot and other men and boys that the police officer had sex with.

GODWIN WHILE YOU'RE MESSING WITH BLOGGERS YOU NEED TO WORK ON THIS MESS BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BLOW UP IN YOUR FACE.

FAMILY LOST IN FIRE HAD COMPLAINED ABOUT BAD WIRING

Surviving family members who lost 7 of their loved ones to a house fire at 862 Baltimore state that for months that Melissa Poole 38 who lost her life in the fire had complained to her landlord about the bad wiring in the home. The triplex house in the Orange Mound community is owned by Margaret Graves (Lieu Estate) and Charles Frank Holland and his wife Mary Lou. The Poole family paid $300 a month to AAA Realty which is owned by the Hollands for the upstairs portion of the house.

Calvin Crawford,Melissa's brother who is presently caring for the surviving children states that the breaker box in the upstairs area had been sparking and that his sister had complained to Mark Williams an employee of AAA Realty with no results. Crawford also states that one of the downstairs living areas has already had a fire. The family states that they have not heard or seen Holland or Williams since the fire occurred.

Lost in the fire were Melissa Poole 38,Deshun Poole 5,Dajanique 10,Deon Poole 19, Arianna Poole 4, and Rodney Poole 1. Crawford states that his two nephews who were able to jump from the burning building Darrius Poole 11.and Deandre Poole 11. are doing well. Melissa Poole also left a 12 year old daughter Denishia Poole who spent the night Friday away from home.

Clothing for the family can be taken to the Greater Hope Baptist Church at 2660 Spottswood where the family were members. I will also be using my radio program to help raise money for funeral and burial arrangements and for living expenses for this family.

There has also been and bank account set up for those who would like to help this family at Regions Bank. THE POOLE FAMILY FUND.

COMING SUNDAY: THE AUTOPSY AND TOXICOLOGY REPORT OF ED VIDULICH

On Sunday I will post the complete autopsy and toxicology report taken after the death of Memphis police officer Edward Vidulich. One thing that you will be able to see is that Vidulich was drunk at the time of the killing. Could Vidulich have been in a drunken rage when he went after Dexter Cox with a knife as Cox states in his confession,which was also found by laying by his body in the kitchen of his home?

THE FIRST 48 MISSED A GOOD STORY....I WONDER WHY?

I WONDER WHY THE DEATH OF ED VIDULICH DIDN'T MAKE THE FIRST 48 THE FILM CREW WAS IN TOWN AT THE TIME. MAYBE GODWIN DIDN'T WANT THE TRUTH TOLD

REST IN PEACE BLACK MOSES

ISAAC "BUBBA LEE" HAYS AND FAMILY

SOURCES STATE THAT GODWIN USED HIS POSITION TO SEEK REVENGE FOR HIS FRIEND

Ed Vidulich the police officer that was killed earlier this year was the best friend of Police Director Larry Godwin. Sources on the 12th floor state that after the arrest of Dexter Cox homicide detectives were instructed by Larry Godwin to make sure that nothing about the alternate sexual lifestyle became public. Sources also state that homicide detectives were told to leave certain evidence out of the record,such as the report that was taken by a white male whose first name is Elliot that he was raped by Vidulich,and a black male who stated that the officer had paid him as much as $500 to have sex with him. In the case of Elliot I spoke with his mother several months ago who confirmed that her son and told her that he had done some work for Vidulich and that when he went to shower the massive police officer entered the shower with him uninvited.

Those same sources state that Lt. Mark Miller told several investigators to suppress certain evidence that would show that Dexter Cox struggled with the nearly 7 foot police officers,and the knife that was found on the kitchen floor was never to be known about.

When the confession of Cox was leaked to me and I waited until after Godwin's press conference to produce it it destroyed Godwin's plans to totally railroad him. After posting the confession on this site everyone was able to read exactly what Cox stated happened in the Frayser home of Big Ed. Sources state that they are sure that Cox went to the officer's home to get paid for pictures that show Ed and his wife having perverted sex with other men and women,including pictures that show Ed being screwed with a cucumber.

Godwin has had an investigation going on since I posted the confession trying to find out who my sources are and how the confession was leaked. The real reason that he has had computer techs checking all the computers and is trying to silence bloggers is because he knows that the pictures could reveal some facts about him and his lifestyle. He knows that the pictures do exist he just does not know who has them which was the reason that the first item of evidence removed from Vidulich's home was a computer where it's believed that the pictures were stored. The pictures in the streets are copies from the computer.

Sources also state that while Godwin and Bill Gibbons have asked the TBI to get involved with the investigation into how Cox's confession was leaked to me that find it strange that when the TBI wanted to see certain evidence that Godwin refused to produce it.

Sources state that if Godwin continues to push this investigation that he and other officers could get indicted for suppressing information. Sources state there is no doubt that Godwin has used his position to seek revenge for his friend and that he used homicide detectives for that purpose but no one in homicide is willing to take the fall for Godwin and evidence and reports that he thinks were destroyed were not but placed in safe keeping according to sources. Sources are hoping that the TBI really gets involved so that certain information can be leaked to them also.


SIDENOTE: This just in from the 12th floor, After moving Caroline Mason around from Homicide to Missing Persons,To Metro Alarms, Mason will return on Saturday back to Homicide. By the way Jim Tusant how did your interview with Elbert Jefferson go on yesterday and why are you trying to protect Godwin?

WILL "THE KING" BECOME "THE CROOK"?

Professional wrestler Jerry Lawler has tagged up with convicted felon Joe Cooper to form an investment company to purchase the now closed "Pat O'Brians" on Beale Street. The tag team partners hope to turn the former club into a 8 story 80 room downtown hotel.

But the big question is why has Lawler paired up with a known crook who will have problems getting any city agency to approve any plan that has Cooper's name on it. One must also must wonder who Lawler thinks will invest any money into any pipe dream of Cooper's.

Maybe Lawler is unaware that Cooper has been a part of 8 different businesses on Beale that all failed. Those failed businesses are Mama Josey's & Deli, Jerry Lee Lewis's in which the city gave him $125,000, Club 152 with Joe Hill,Joyce Cobb's with Johnny Robinson. Cooper also was involved in 380 Beale with George Miller, he also partnered with Brent Parrit who has ties to topless bars and opened "Legends", Another of Cooper's failed Beale Street projects was 'Fat Man's Joe's,A hot dog and BBQ business that was on the side of Silky's.

It seems that Cooper is about to throw Lawler into the ropes and pile drive him through a financial mat,because anything that Cooper has his hands on is shady. So will 'The King" now become "The Crook"?

MASON MOVED AGAIN

Sources within MPD state that former Homicide detective and "First 48" star Caroline Mason has again been reassigned. Mason who several months ago was moved to "Missing Persons" has now been moved to "Metro Alarms".

Mason with all her street experience will now handle burglary alarms under Michael Freeman. One must wonder why she is being moved around so. It's rumored that on last year she filed a EEOC complaint against fellow TV star Tony Armstrong. Is it possible that Mason felt that she didn't get equal time on the big screen?

I MADE A FLIGHT RESERVATION FOR NIKKI STINKER,I WONDER IF SHE'S GONE

On Friday on"The Thaddeus Matthews Show" I made a call using one of several voices I use on the show to Pinnacle Airlines trying to make a reservations for the Nikki Stinker to return to Gadsen Alabama. Tune in at 4pm to AM 990 KWAM to hear the complete conversation with a reservation clerk

The flight was confirmed for 9:45 am on Saturday,I wonder if she made it?

FULLILOVE WANTS ME TO STOP TALKING ABOUT HER BEING A DRUNK

While on air Friday I received a cell phone call from City Council woman Wanda Halbert who had received a call from Janis Fullilove. Apparently Fullilove had been listening to "The Thaddeus Matthews Show" where I was denouncing her drunken behavior and calling for her to resign. Fulliove asked Halbert to call me wondering why I was talking about her and wanted Halbert to ask me to stop.

I told Halbert that I would not stop because Janis needs to be reminded that she is a drunk that needs help. The people around Janis have become co-dependents to her drunken behavior and allow her to tell whatever lie sounds good. The pictures of her shown on WMC have not shaken her enough to get help because her so called friends are feeding into her lie that she was at the casino with friends,and not the true fact that she was actually at the casino alone.

Halbert and the other council members should address the fact that Fulliove is a danger to herself and to others and publicly denounce her drunkenness and ask her to step down until she gets help. It is certain that the council has no power to remove her but a message should be sent that they don't condone her driving drunk in the city. This will never happen because as fellow poli-trick-ans they have a loyalty to each other that goes beyond their loyalty to the community.

JANIS IF YOU WANT ME TO STOP SPEAKING OF YOUR DRUNKEN BEHAVIOR,STEP DOWN FROM THE COUNCIL AND CHECK IN TO A REHAB CENTER.

PLACE YOUR VOTE ON WHETHER JANIS SHOULD RESIGN OR NOT ON THE POLL TO THE RIGHT

GODWIN USES SUMMER HEAT TO PUSH FOR ARREST

High level sources out of 201 Poplar state that a police sting to generate a high number of arrest ended yesterday. The sting called "Summer Heat" was put in place by Larry Godwin to show Mayor Willie Herenton that even in the face of negatives he's still needed.

I'm told by my sources that Commanders at various precincts were told to get the number of arrest up even if it meant that the charges might not stick. I'm told that the stats from "Summer Heat" will show a large number of misdemeanor charges. I spoke with several officers who state that officers no longer have any respect for Godwin and will not just arrest people to make him happy. The officers stated that if a citizen deserved a misdemeanor citation instead of arrest that that is what they did.

SIDENOTE: I was also informed by my high level sources that the lawsuit filed by Larry Godwin and the city against blogger MPDENFORCER is just a ploy against blogger who speak out against the hidden agenda of the director. I'm told that the real focus is me and this site. The sources state that the unseal portion of the lawsuit claims that the computers in the Homicide division were hacked into and that's how I received the confession of Dexter Cox in what may be self defense instead of capital murder in the case of Godwin's best friend Big Ed.

THE SOUL MAN IS DEAD

Issac hayes died today here in Memphis. He was found by his wife laying beside a running treadmill. Hayes was rushed to Baptist East where he was pronounced dead. Through out 'The Thaddeus Matthews Show" on tomorrow I will play many of his great hits

IT'S TIME FOR JANIS FULLILOVE TO ADMIT THAT SHE'S A DRUNK

WMC TV has obtained pictures of City Council woman Janis Fullilove drunk again. Fullilove was found slumped over in the front seat of her car on Wednesday night by a Fitzgerald Casino guard. Fulliove told WMC's Jason Miles that she couldn't find her girlfriends that drove her down and that she was ready to go.

Just two weeks ago there was a report that Fullilove had been arrested in Mississippi for crossing the median.No arrest report could be found but she did tell a reporter that she was riding with friend Millie Gavin who got stopped for making and improper turn. Fulliove states that she was slumped over because she had taken pain pills and didn't want to drive in Mississippi. But as can be seen from the picture she was under the wheel.

It is known by those who know her that Fulliove has had a long history of having an alcohol problem,which she refuses to address. Fullilove turns on any one who tells her the truth "That she's a drunk" who needs to seek help.

Earlier this year in fact the very same night that Willie Herenton was on Tv crying Janis had been caught crying drunk in Mississippi. I was contacted the very same night and contacted her the following morning. I told her that I was aware of what had happened and she admitted that she had been drinking. I asked her to go get some help for herself which she stated that she would. I told her I would not expose her if she promised that she was going to get help and not drive drunk again.I also told her if she did I would expose her as the drunk she is.

It wasn't a month later that she had an accident after leaving a Mississippi casino where a child was hurt. When I called her about the accident she told me that she had been drinking wine at the casino but she was not at fault,that she had been hit broadside by the other car. After viewing her car that had no damage to either side, but showed that she hit the car since all the damage was on the front,She told me that I was looking at the wrong car.

One of the problems that allows Janis to remain a drunk is the fact that her friends won't tell her the truth. Because of her status some of her friends just talk about her behind her back and smile when she comes around. But even though she no longer speaks to me i must tell Janis that she is a DRUNK. If Janis does not get help she is going to kill herself or someone else. She's needs to quit telling the pain pill lie and seek help for herself.

Janis should also take a leave of absence or resign from the council because as a DRUNK she can't make rational decisions for this community which is proven in the fact that she won't make a rational decision for herself.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: If Fullilove was driven down to the casino in her car by friends why did the guard have to take her home and who gave him the ok? Wouldn't that place liabliity on Fitzgerald's

COHEN OPENS UP CAN OF WHUP ASS FOR NIKKI STINKER

Congressman Steve Cohen ran over Nikki Stinker like a Mac truck defeating her 4to 1 to remain the democratic choice for the 9th Congressional district. Cohen must face Independent candidates in November,But another Mac truck has it's engine running.



Memphis proved that it's not the capital of racism as many think by giving Cohen 79% of the vote. On Thursday night at The Holiday Inn University several hundred people of different races gathered to show the congressman support while Nikki was only able to garner up 12 people bold enough to show that they support "The Worst Person In The World".

Most likely the stockholders of Pinnacle Airlines will find a way to fire Nikki,. What corporation wants to be known as the company who hires "The Worst Person In The World"? How can the airline hope to maintain Black business after Barack Obama has denounced one of their employees?

Tinker with her degrees is not only the Worst Person In The World,but the dumbest. She allowed Walter Bailey who had his own agenda to make a fool out of her, Tinker who never presented a platform, But felt that her Black skin was all that was needed to get her elected built her campaign around dividing the district and promoting the racist agenda's of others. Tonight closed a chapter in her life that will forever remain sealed,For she can never run again because she willl always be labled as The Worst Person On The World

LET NIKKI KNOW HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT HER.

NIKKI TINKER HAS BEEN DECLARED "THE WORLD'S WORST PERSON"

Now the world knows what most of us in memphis already knew,and that is that Nikki Tinker is the worse person in the world. Tonight on national television on MSNBC's Countdown program hosted by Keith Olbermann the candidate for congress who has become the poster child for racism in a political campaign was given her well deserved title. Surely on today no one in there right mind will want to cast a vote for "The Worse Person In The World". Nikki you allowed Walter Bailey to use you to get at Congressman Cohen and now you have receives national mockery.......In other world my dear dumb friend,YOU GOT PLAYED



SIDENOTE: EMILY’s List president Ellen Malcolm issued a statement Wednesday evening condemning Tinker’s most recent ad. The group, which endorses Democratic women who favor abortion rights, has been Tinker's most prominent backer.

“We were shocked to see the recent ads run by the Nikki Tinker for Congress campaign. We believe the ads are offensive and divisive,” said Malcolm. EMILY's List does not condone or support these types of attacks.”

HERE'S THE REST OF THE STORY

Even though The City Attorney's office and Larry Godwin tried in yesterday's paper to preempt City Council woman Wanda Halbert's going public with acts of terrorism by the Memphis Police Department by stating that Halbert is upset because a friend of hers was not hired they left out the real details.

Godwin didn't state in the CA's article that the reason that Halbert's friend was mentioned was due to the fact that she had been told of unfair hiring practices concerning blacks and that she had requested total documentation concerning that issue. Godwin is also upset over the fact that Halbert requested documentation that proved that his "Blue Crush" program is a joke and no crime is being deterred by it. The documentation posted here showing the high number of increase in crime came from that documentation .

What Godwin did not share with the CA is that his department tried to charge Halbert with a hit and run accident but backed down after they found out that they would not be able to go forth with the designed charge after finding out that the date that they used in reports was a date that the council woman was in Washington D.C..

Godwin also didn't share with the CA that after Halbert started asking Godwin questions about things going on in the department that the police "accidently" entered an apartment where Halbert's son lives with guns drawn looking for a suspect in a crime. The police came back and stated that they had the wrong apartment but what if Halbert's son who was sleeping upstairs had thought that the officers who entered the apartment with a key and no search warrant were robbers and came down armed.......You guessed it THEY WOULD HAVE KILLED HIM. Was this act by Godwin's Goons a way to send a message to the council woman? Willie Herenton I know that you have been told about this, but what are you going to do?

SIDENOTE: In yesterday's hearing on the ticket fixing for Bradley Greer by Larry Godwin handled by deputy Chief Jim Tusant Greer did not appear in Court and his lawyer Ted Hansom has with drawn from the case. The judge was not aware that Hansom would no longer represent Greer when Clyde Keenan stood to be the new representative. The judge reset the case for Oct. 1.2008.

But I wonder why Greer who is a close friend of Godwin is constantly being represented by persons close to the police director. Clyde Keenan is a former police commander who reportedly worked with Godwin on the TACT Unit. Keenan in this case does not pass the smell test and he has proven that he will lie about a legal matters.

Read the following concerning Keenan and Phillip Workman:

MEMPHIS POLICE OFFICER CONFESSES TO JUDGE THAT HE HAS FIXED TICKETS FOR RELATIVES AND FRIENDS

Today while visiting Judge Jayne Chandler in her chambers an off duty City of Memphis Police officer insisted that he needed to repent and make a confession to her. I had made a visit to division 3 to see if officer Sampson Pryor III was at work and to get his feelings on today's hearing in the court room concerning the ticket fixing of Bradley Greer by Police Director Larry Godwin and Deputy Jim Tusant.

When I entered the courtroom Judge Chandler who is a friend asked me to approach the bench. After a brief conversation she asked me to come to her chambers where our conversation continued. Before leaving the bench a officer asked her court officer if he could address the judge concerning her speaking to a group that he's involved with.

The judge spoke with him and told him that she would get back in touch with him and left the bench. While sitting in her chambers officer Pryor brought the officer around to to the chambers where again Judge Chandler told the officer that just leave his phone number and she would get back with him concerning addressing his group.

Moments later the officer again was at the door to the judge's chambers holding two sheets of legal paper. The judge opened the door and asked the officer what was it that he wanted, he stated "I want to repent for something that I've done. I want to make a confession". I looked at the judge and she looked at me I got up to leave but she told me " I need a witness to whatever he's about to say". She asked the officer who by now has identified himself as Officer Ivory Robinson #2010 of the Ridgeway precinct if he knew who I was, he stated that he knew that I was the blogger. I asked him if he was sure that he wanted talk in front of me, he stated that it was okay.

Robinson preceded to read from a prepared letter addressed to Judge Chandler,In the letter he states:

I am writing this letter to apologize to you and to your courtroom for past actions that caused a great disruption and discord both to you and your courtroom. I am truly sorry and ask for your forgiveness in having a form to have citations voided. I did not know that such actions were causing a problem within this courtroom.

Actions that were or have been practiced for many years I thought were correct and proper since all we had to do was fill out a Void Ticket Form and submit it along with the hard copy. This was done for family and friends.

There were in some cases people who just didn't have the money or transportation but they didn't want to miss, nor go to jail and risk deportation so I thought that since we (officers) do the voided ticket actions for our own friends and relatives why not for those who need more time to get there business in order.

THE VOID TICKET FORM is a form that is used for short tickets only, short tickets are those given where you don't have to be present or sign. The use of the form is for mistakes that may have taken place by the officer or proof is given that perhaps the ticket should not have been given. For example if a person is given a ticket for parking in a handicapped spot because the placard is not shown but can go to the precinct or to court and prove that they in fact had the placard the ticket can be voided if signed by a Lt. or higher rank. This is not mandatory the ticketed person can still be required to pay or go to court.

THE VOID TICKET FORM cannot be used for long tickets such as accidents or speeding or any ticket that is required to be signed, That ticketed person has to go to court or pay the fine.

I wondered why officer Robinson was acting so strange as though it was life or death that he spoke with Judge Chandler and why he was willing to confess in front of me, So I had some of my sources within 201 to check him out. It seems that Robinson according to those sources has been caught voiding tickets belonging to other officers without there knowledge, which means that he has forged other officers name to the forms.

I'm told that an officer going to court on his day in court was asked by a prosecutor why a certain ticket had been voided and it was found that Robinson and not the writing officer had voided the ticket. The sources believe that Robinson already knows that he could lose his job and that criminal charges could be filed, So in knowing that Larry Godwin is to be in court today plans to compare Godwin's case of fixing a ticket for Bradley Greer to what he has done.

While Godwin no doubt fixed the ticket for his friend who according to the rules of Chandlers court had to either pay the ticket or appear before her since he was driving over the 10 mile requirement of her courtroom, he didn't forge any ones name to any documents as in the case of officer Ivory Robinson who states that he has been on the force for 9 years. If his confession was a means by which he thought he was digging his way out of a tunnel, That tunnel just caved in on him.

By the way the letter has become public information since Judge Chandler sent a copy to City Attorney Elbert Jefferson explaining the actions of Robinson

NIKKI IS SELLING HER WARES TO WHATEVER TRICKS SHE CAN

The Memphis Democratic Club started out as an organization that wanted to make a change in the political system in Shelby County. In fact one of the goals was to support only candidates that were qualified and prepared for the office that they were seeking. As one of the original members I left the organization several months after it's birth due to the fact that the group under the leadership of Greg and Alonzo Grant were selling the group's endorsement to the highest bidder.

Looking at the ballot that was being passed out at churches on Sunday the Grant Brothers have found another political trick willing to be hustled by political pimps. Tinker is so desperate for attention she's selling herself cheaper than a Elvis Presley Whore.

The Memphis Democratic Club has no ties at all to the Shelby County Democratic Party and persons who are being endorsed by them have paid to be on the ballot. The ballot is not about choosing the best candidate,but about the Grants having a payday. The Grants are well aware that Tinker is not the best for the job but her money blinds them from presenting the truth.

The so called Black leaders on the ballot should be ashamed of themselves for being used by the Grants,but they should also understand that their endorsement of a candidate means nothing to most Blacks. The Grants use the pictures of Harold Ford senior and Junior, but for what. Junior has not openly endorsed the woman who lies and says that she was once his campaign manager. Harold Sr. has moved away from Memphis so if he was so concerned about the affairs of Memphis he would have stayed in the placed that made it possible for him to to be such a high paid lobbyist. Many woman in the Black community have lost respect for Jr since his marriage to a White woman earlier this year, plus for 10 years no one can tell you one thing he did for the district. Plus the question being asked these days is did Harold Ford Sr. sell his stock in his Black owned family business to a White funeral company?

This ballot is a ballot of whoredom where Tinker Bell is up for sale, her skills are limited so what she's selling won't go far. Her tricks had better be careful because she wants her wares sold 'Off The Porch". I guess her best way of giving service is in the yard because it mostly certainly won't be in Congress.......But then what does she know about service?

SIDENOTE: Lois Deberry,Barbara Cooper,Reginald Tate are all State officials who according to the ballot endorse Tinker., So they must embraced her notion about the Nathan Bedford Forrest statue here in memphis. But if they are really sincere about the statue and Forrest,why have'nt this group of Black leaders attacked The Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park? Simple answer they don't care it's all about Steve Cohen being White .

NIKKI WHAT ABOUT HAROLD JR.?

Nikki Tinker campaign for congress has lost all of it's steam so now the only log that she has left is to try and claim that Congressman Steve Cohen has ties to the KKK. This attempt to further divide Memphis is the plan of a little girl who knows nothing of the history of this community and blacks who have personal vendettas against Cohen.

The whole idea about the statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest being removed from a downtown park is a joke. Why hasn't these co called black leaders behind Tinker invested their funds into a project to promote the development of the black community by building industry and programs to reduce the number of blacks committing crimes? The answer is simple it would mean putting your money where your mouth is. Nikki Tinker is not being supported by these so called black leaders because they feel that she's the best candidate but because they know that she can be used as a pawn in their games of having a self serving agenda.

While I respect Walter Bailey his support for Tinker is based on the fact that Cohen as a member of the Center City Commission voted against moving the statue. Bailey knows that Tinker has no record of service in this community but is willing to support her based on a past agenda. Bailey knew that the Center City Commission had no authority at all when it came to removing a statue that has been located in the same place for over a hundred years, but because Cohen made that fact known and would not support it just for symbolic state Bailey is upset with Cohen.

While Bailey and Tinker are trying to paint Cohen as one who is using the black community to get votes the question should be asked why not? The district majority is black and what has Tinker done to advance the district, what service has she performed, the answer is none. So to paint a the picture that "The White Man is After Us" Tinker is allowing the self centered agenda of Bailey and others to promote a racist vision that just not there.

While Bailey and Tinker are placing a backdrop of Nathan Bedford Forrest in an attempt to say that Cohen has ties to the KKK, what about the picture of Harold Ford Jr. pandering to Whites in front of the Confederate Flag? It seems that it was okay for the former Black congressman who needed White votes to get elected to the U.S. Senate without these Blacks supporting Tinker saying one word.

Ford Jr. went as far as to say that his grandmother Vera Davis Ford was White, so that Whites could feel comfortable with him,and bailey didn't make a commercial then denouncing the ambitious young congressman as one who was denying his race to gather White support. I didn't hear Bailey or L. Lie-Simba Gray attacking Ford Jr. for his 10 years of none service to the 9th Congressional District while trying to make himself a national figure.

Nikki Tinker has stated that Harold Ford Jr. was her mentor, she has even lied about being his campaign manager to impress the the foolish Blacks that would vote for her based on her connection to him. But what Bailey and Tinker both need to understand is that the Black community no longer need the approval of "The Negro Leader" to make a sound decision. Bailey's endorsement of Tinker has fallen on deaf ears and will be proven on election day when citizens of the district will send a message that "True leadership is not proven by pictures painted by those with their own agenda's but proven by service" And that's what Congressman Steve Cohen has given. Nikki get off the porch and take your ass back to Alabama,your hold card has been pulled...............YOU LOSE

TICKET FIXING CASE GOES BACK TO COURT ON TUESDAY MORNING

">" border="0" alt="" />

Bradley Greer whose speeding ticket was dismissed with the help of his buddy Police Director Larry Godwin who sent his deputy chief Jim Tusant down to judge Jayne Chandler's court to get it done will return to court Tuesday morning at 9AM. Since it's a proven fact that Tusant was in the courtroom for Greer at the direction of Godwin I wonder when Bill Gibbons will file charges an Willie Herenton will fire his ticket fixing Director.

It is also will known that Godwin would like to fire Officer Sampson Pryor III for revealing his corruption but knows that it's sure that if he does fire the nearly 30 vet there will be a backlash from the community that even his bud Willie can't save him from.

LARRY YOU MAY WANT TO READ THIS:

Tennessee: Police Chief Arrested for Ticket Fixing Burns, Tennessee police chief busted for allegedly trying to fix a speeding ticket.The police chief for Burns, Tennessee has found himself on the wrong side of the law over a speeding citation. Dickson County Sheriff's deputies booked Chief Jerry Sumerour Jr. last week on charges that he tried to force a subordinate to fix a ticket. Sumerour turned himself in to authorities without incident and posted a $50 bond to face arraignment on the class C misdemeanor charge on July 14.The charges stem from a March 21 traffic stop.

Captain Larry Williams wrote the chief's sixteen-year-old stepson a reckless driving and a speeding ticket for exceeding 63 MPH in a 30 zone in a Dodge Neon. A grand jury found evidence that Sumerour may have attempted to pressure Williams into dropping the tickets in violation of his own written orders."He started pleading with me to give him the tickets and put 'warning' on them and at that particular time, I told him, I said, 'I can't do that, we just came out of a staff meeting about this' and I said, 'Jerry, this is a bad thing, you shouldn't be doing this' and he tells me in a very deep tone, 'My wife is leaving me'," Williams told WKRN-TV in an interview.

Sumerour fired Williams less than three weeks later. The town attorney for Burns defended the firing in a written statement in April."It currently appears that the grounds for Officer Williams' termination were independent and legitimate business reasons," attorney Timothy V. Potter wrote. "Due to the fact that Officer Williams has apparently made allegations of wrongdoing on the part of the City of Burns Police Department, no additional comment will be made at this time."Williams told WTVF-TV in April that he turned on his dashcam during the traffic stop and that there should be a recording

WHY CAN'T WE ALL HAVE ONE?

The big bad director of Police Larry Godwin seems to have a fear of crime also, I guess that's the reason that the taxpayers of the City of Memphis provide for the home security system at Godwin's Cordova home located on Wesley Woods Drive. The former City Council saw fit to provide Godwin's home with a state of the art system that allows him to beam in objects up the street and hear was going on outside.

With the high crime rate in Memphis It would seem that all the citizens should be provided with a security system since we can't trust Godwin to do his job for trying to find leaks. Did you know that Godwin is so petty that when the alarm went off at the house a female officer checking his backyard decided to pick a tomato that was growing in the yard was reprimanded and moved.

It seems that while the mayor has bodyguards and Godwin has a security paid for by taxpayers, the rest of rest are left to fend for ourselves.

BLUE FLUSH IS A FAILURE,SO WHY IS GODWIN STILL ON THE JOB?

Is the reason that Police Director Larry Godwin is so consumed with finding out where the leaks are in his department are because he afraid that someone is going to make it public that he's a failure at his job and that crime has increased every year since he's been the head of the police department?

Godwin has gone on record as saying that his "Blue Crush" program is deterring crime, but according to police records which were LEAKED to me,this is a very untrue statement. Those records show a constant yearly increase in arrests which mean that there is a constant increase in crime. If the director had an effective plan for crime we would see the numbers decrease.

The stats show that in 2003 there were 31,021 arrests, In 2004 35,366, In 2005 36,426, In 2006 38,196, And in 2007 44,858. These stats are based solely on adult arrest in the City of Memphis, So we know that with juvenile arrests added the stats are much higher.

With this steady increase in crime how does Godwin have time to be concerned about anything other than crime, Better yet why has mayor Willie Herenton allowed him to keep his job because the stats of The police department shows that he's not doing his job.

HERE'S ANOTHER LEAK FROM THE 12TH FLOOR. SOURCES STATE THAT GODWIN HAS COPYRIGHTED THE BLUE CRUSH PROGRAM TO SELL TO OTHER POLICE DEPARTMENTS AROUND THE COUNTRY.
