Anybody heard from Cornel and/or Tavis lately?

[Number23]

8. Exactly

I embarrassed myself so many times arguing that Cornel was The Man. I was such a huge fan of his. Never paid Tavis that much attention. Everything about that man screamed "opportunist" to me.

Even when Obama was sworn in and Corny started up, I thought "well, there has to be something to this because this is Cornel. My MAN." But when the criticisms became more and more frequent, more personal and more PETTY he started to lose me.

Mad because you didn't get invited to Obama's inauguration'? What??! 'Mad 'cause the man parking cars at your hotel got an invitation and you didn't'?? Are you kidding me??!

But when he said that the president "fears free black men," the second those words came out of his mouth he lost me. Totally and completely. It will take alot for him to get me back too.
