Coming For That Number One Spot: Biden and Ryan Spar During Debate
If you didn't watch the debates YOU WERE MISSING OUT. As soon as it ended I had to put on some Sade and dim my lights just to relax because as my mom would say "a sistah was spent". The debate was filled with shade, reads, fact checking and the familiar sound of Biden laughing, all the things my dreams are made of.
So What did we learn according to Ryan:
Ryan would spend more time and money in Iraq and the middle east.
Ryan and Romney do not support abortion would not nominate supreme court justices to the supreme court who supported it
Military spending should increase
The stimulus package has hurt America
Under Romney medicare would essential be a voucher system
Obama policies are terrible vote Romney
Biden on the other hand reaffirmed Obama's policies and basically read Paul Ryan his rights and sent him to bed with a cool glass of milk. The most entertaining moment (besides every time time he'd make a face) was when Joe Biden slammed Paul Ryan on attacking the stimulus package when he sent two letters to the Vice President asking for stimulus money for his state!
So for the big question of who won last night. Personally I believe the crown goes to my fellow Aquarian, the moderator, Martha Raddatz. Raddatz handled the debate the way Jim Lehrer should have a week ago. She interrupted when necessary and she demanded the candidates to be specific and answer the questions she asked. So brava Martha!
All in all the debate was beyond entertaining and a definite success for the Obama camp. The Romney momentum was crushed and now all eyes will be on Obama and Romney on Tuesday for the next set of presidential debates. Of course Ryan is desperately in need of a shoulder to cry on I'm sure he can call up Sarah Palin. She knows all about getting served by Joe Biden and of course the "liberal elite".
On a brighter not here are a few of my favorite memes...enjoy!

Mama Said Knock You Out: The Vice Presidential Debate Promises To Be a Battle Royal
With only a few weeks left until the election, Vice President Joe Biden and Vice Presidential hopeful Paul Ryan are ready to duke it out in the only way politicians can since duels were outlaws, by debating.
Tonight at 9pm Biden and Ryan will debate each other on foreign and domestic topics each having two minutes to respond.
For the Obama campaign tonight is huge. Granted it won't really have an impact on the polls or the outcome of the election unless something extremely bad happens but it will provide the administration with a chance to stop any momentum Romney and Ryan have gained since the last debate.
Since Joe Biden is known for being fiery and outspoken I'm sure he's already blasting Cheif Keef and ready to put the breaks on this Romney train (or at least in my head he is). If your not watching the debate don't worry, I'll be doing a brief recap tomorrow!

You Decide 2012: Make Sure Your Registered
So I know I promised a full debate review but after watching the debate and doing the live updates via Facebook I don't think I need to. What I think is most important right now is that EVERYBODY register to vote!! In a lot of states the deadline is fast approaching so make sure you check your registration status and if your already not registered DO IT TODAY!
Voting is crucial especially if you are of color. Many people fought and died so that we would one day be able to perform our civic duty, let's not sully their memory by not voting now!!!!

Not Watching the Debates? I Got You Covered: Live Debate Updates TONIGHT!
Happy Presidential Debate Day!!!
Okay so I know everybody isn't as excited as me but hey I'm a politics junkie. Now I also know alot of people don't watch the debates for a multitude of reasons like it's boring, you have to work that night, something better comes on at 9, or you have other things in life to do. Even though your not watching it live you don't want to be left out when professors, co workers or really SNL starts talking about the debates, I mean nobody likes that feeling. So for those people I have a solution.
Starting tonight I will be providing Live debate updates via Facebook so everybody can feel informed even if your not watching it yourself. Just visit Urban Affairs Daily on Facebook and like, subscribe or just stalk the page to keep yourself abreast on all things Debate tonight.
If for some sad reason you decide to hit the pass button on that you can just stay tuned to this page for a more in depth look at the debate but that will probably be published by Friday so GO ON FACEBOOK!
The link to the Urban Affairs Daily page is below and the Live updates will start at 9pm eastern standard time. Check it out!

Jackie Christie Fail: This is Exactly Why You Should Know Your Bible
I don't expect much from reality TV but I do expect people to know what they're talking about at least 55% especially if they're talking about God and their beliefs. Sadly Basketball Wives LA ruined all my expectations in a matter of minutes.
On Monday night the eldest wife, Jackie Christie sat down with co-star Draya Michelle to discuss some issues they were having. After a couple of heated moments Jackie began to pray (granted they had just brought her food out but still) and the following conversation went something like this.
Draya: I'm just making sure we're praying to the same God
Jackie: See I've heard that little stuff about being satanic and I don't even play with that like me and Lazarus is not friends.
Draya: who?
Jackie: who's the devil Draya?
Draya: His names not Lazarus
Jackie: What is it then Satan? there's all Kind of names for him.
Clearly Jackie needs to cancel some of these little Lunch dates and stop by somebodies Bible study because LAZARUS and LUCIFER are not the same person. I mean Aretha Franklin even sings about LAZARUS in "Oh Mary don't you weep" so you don't even need to be a theologian to know the difference. I honestly feel like Jackie is a little crazy so I don't want to talk about her too bad but in the future I'm going to need her to do better.

Well If This Doesn't Make You Vote: Gangnam Parody "Vote Obama Style"
With just about 39 days left until the election I cannot stress how important it is to register, secure the proper identification and VOTE. Now I could preach about how Obama is this best choice but I think this Gangnam Style parody video pretty much sums it up!
So remember this November Vote Obama Style!
Happy Friday :)
