Why I love the internet.

When surfing the net or looking at my stats that show who links me, I usually find some gold nugget in the midst of lots of ugly rock. This is a gold nugget. It's called Hip Hop Republican and there you can find these recent pearls of wisdom and information:

*Hip Hop star maker Russel Simmons gets some grief for endorsing Maryland Lt. Governor Michael Steele for the United States Senate and he explains why in a letter.

*Bob Herbert Op-ed Columnist (and liberal) discussing the "depressing culture illness, frequently fatal, that has spread unchecked through much of black America."

*The history of black Muslims.

Check out the contributors. A more interesting bunch you cannot find. I bookmarked it.
