May Day May Day__Super Tweet Super Sweet

by Linda Ballard

Look at it again. Nah! This is not about RICK JAMES. I know you looked at the title and the music begin to dance around in your head. Cut it out. STOP IT! STOP IT! I like the new THEME “FORWARD” I wanted to TWEET this to the PRESIDENT but I knew it would take more than 140 WORDS.

I would have too many WORDS going “FORWARD.” It is a moment of REFLECTION for the NATION and NOT a CELEBRATION. As I look back on May 1, 2011. I was in the process of writing one of my favorite stories. It sums this day up perfectly.

GIVING RECOGNITION TO THE UNRECOGNIZED-SAVING LIVES speaks of the chain of events and struggles that PRESIDENT OBAMA has dealt with to gain RESPECT, VALIDATION, from the PEOPLE, and the NATION. He has done a MAR..VE…LOUS JOB of KEEPING HIS PROMISE.

HOLD UP! I think I will go with the WORD MASTERFUL. Sometimes people get this WORD confused with CONTROLLING. We are talking about the BIG D who is SKILLFUL. NOW if we were talking about the REPUBLICANS we would be talking about CONTROLLING.

I know STILL WATERS RUN DEEP so WALK WITH ME AND TAKE MY HAND. I know you are a SKILLFUL SWIMMER and you won’t let me drown or down. This is what I said to you a year ago and I hold steadfast in my position today.

To the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, YOU have been riding on the WAVE of a TSUNAMI. YOU have looked across the way. The WORDS you spoke transmitted RESPECT to the LIFE of an INFAMOUS RECOGNIZABLE NOW LAID TO REST. It was not a CELEBRATION THEN and it should not be a CELEBRATION TODAY.

IT WAS A LIFE. YOU held steadfast to your 3P’s. POWER, PASSION, and PURPOSE. Tonight you have earned 2 of my P’S. This is PRODUCTIVITY and PLACEMENT.

YOU get the BRAGGING RIGHTS as being one of the most PRODUCTIVE PRESIDENTS in the WORLD. As far as PLACEMENT I am looking “FORWARD.” I know that many others are looking “FORWARD” to you getting your SECOND CHANCE as the PEOPLE’S PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

GET OUT YOUR SURFBOARD and RIDE THE WAVE of the TSUNAMI all the way home. DO YOUR THANG!

Playground Hustlers__Who Are The Bullies?

by Linda Ballard

Did he step to the curve? He went down that alley. He started it first. Who started it first? MITCH McCONNELL, Senator Minority Leader from Kentucky is the one who said he was going to make PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, a ONE TERM PRESIDENT. WHAT?!

This is threatening INTENTIONAL BEHAVIOR. JIM DEMINT, PAUL RYAN, NICKY HALLEY, and many others called the PRESIDENT a BULLY. The nerve of NICKY HALEY coming out of her bag. She needs to pay her INCOME TAXES. We are going to change her name to NICHOLAS HALEY. WHY? She doesn’t stand with women on HEALTH CARE REFORM. She made a crazy statement. NICKY or NICHOLAS hasn’t figured out the different usages of contraceptives How can a person afford to hold a job down when they are sick most of the TIME? There are some women with large families. Every Time one of the kids are sick their illness travels around the whole household. It will take a while for everyone in the household to recover from their illness. Some jobs don’t want to hear or even care that your kids are ill.

By that TIME, you have gained so many points on your work record you are pounding the beat for another job. The OLD WOMAN IN THE SHOE will be pushed out of her own crib to find a new job, housing, and a new story. WOMEN will not forget NICKY HALEY nor will they EVER FORGET those CONTROLLING REPUBLICANS on contraception and WOMEN RIGHTS. I guess the REPUBLICANS didn’t read the poem “THIS IS A WOMAN DECISION” in the February 2012 archives. WHEW! The wrath of SCORNED WOMEN will be felt.

It is SHOWTIME! The REPUBLICANS SET IT and now they can FORGET IT. Their GOOSE is cooked. The REPUBLICANS don’t PAY ATTENTION and they don’t FOLLOW DIRECTION. When the REPUBLICANS purchased their SHOWTIME OVEN they left it UNATTENDED. They started cooking up all these crazy laws. Right there on the instructions, it tells you “DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED.” The REPUBLICANS are totally in the DARK on HEALTH CARE REFORM, JOBS, the ECONOMY, and everything else that comes into their HOUSE. They went out and bought candles to help shed some light on their SCREW-UPS. What did they do? They left the candles UNATTENDED. It tells you on the packaging, “DO NOT LEAVE UNATTENDED.” REPUBLICANS burned their own HOUSE down. The WOMEN were left UNATTENDED by the REPUBLICANS. They know how to write checks.

Women do not need men or the REPUBLICANS to hold their hands. Women do not need men to, OKAY you can pick a body part on this one. Choices are good. WOMEN want respect when they make their own DECISIONS. Get ready because the REPUBLICANS failed to read the packaging and totally ignored the WARNING LABEL. These BROTHERS better go find a TREE. SCOTT WALKER, Governor of Wisconsin, your URINAL has been REPOSSESSED. SCOTT WALKER went behind closed doors and signed laws that abolish rights that protect WOMEN. He is doing everything he can to force WOMEN back into the DARK AGES. SCOTT WALKER is on his path of destruction to leave the state of Wisconsin in ruins. It is that old mentality. SCOTT WALKER goes down he takes everyone and everything with him.

LENA TAYLOR, State Senator of Wisconsin, continue to remain vigilant along with your CREW and HOLD THE FORT DOWN. WISCONSIN has come OUT OF THE SHADOW. RICK SNYDER, VULTURE CAPITALIST, and GOVERNOR are the MUAMMAR GADDAFI of MICHIGAN. Your URINAL has been REPOSSESSED. Whatever happened to DEMOCRACY? The BRO-MANCE of SCOTT WALKER and RICK SNYDER have revealed the PLAYGROUND HUSTLERS.

JOHN KASICH, Governor of Ohio, is the MEGA POLE STRIPPER. SLIDING up and down his POLE stripping UNION RIGHTS, stripping WOMEN RIGHTS, and stripping the RIGHTS oF TORNADO VICTIMS from FUNDING. JOHN KASICH your URINAL has been REPOSSESSED. We know WHO ARE THE BULLIES.

NINA TURNER, State Senator from Ohio, continue to speak from your HEART’S ZONE. You are OUT OF THE SHADOW. You must remain vigilant along with your OHIO PLAYERS.

The REPUBLICANS will not have a POT TO PISS IN NOR A WINDOW TO THROW IT OUT OF. WOMEN are collecting the URINALS of the men who do not stand with them. There goes the REPUBLICANS, and all the rest of the men’s POTS to PISS IN. The REPUBLICANS screwed themselves out of the WOMEN’S VOTE. NO MERCY will be SPARED. WOMEN ARE SICK AND TIRED of BEING SICK AND TIRED! They are not going back to STONE AGE ROCK. WOMEN will come to 30 ROCK. It is hard to get the REPUBLICANS TO COME TO 30 ROCK.

Come EASTER that STONE will remain on top of the REPUBLICANS GRAVE. AIN’T going to be no RESURRECTION up in the REPUBLICAN HOUSE. One thing you can count on, these SISTERS are going to THRASH that A..on ELECTION DAY. Women bring home the bacon and fry it up in a pan. They get way less bacon than any man. Who is the MAN that has taken a STAND? I’m not talking about SHAFT. CAN YOU DIG IT? We don’t want to confuse the REPUBLICANS. Right about now they are trying to figure out who is SHAFT.

PRESIDENT OBAMA has taken the REPUBLICANS down the court. He is using MAGIC JOHNSON FAST BREAK. PRESIDENT OBAMA has stolen the ball from the REPUBLICANS and has taken it to the hoop. He is STANDING TALL and STRONG with the WOMEN. He has taken LOU ALCINDOR, aka KAREEM ABDUL JABBAR, and put that SKY HOOK on the REPUBLICANS. The REPUBLICANS can’t get upon OBAMA’S shot without GOALTENDING. The BIG D gets the POINT. They tried to mess with the BIG D’S FREE THROW. The REPUBLICANS have interfered with the backboard of WOMEN’S last nerve, above the rim, and before entering the basket for the LAST TIME. SMOOTH OPERATOR is looking PURTY PURTY. I won’t use the word MARVELOUS it just doesn’t fit. This is not a BUTTER COMMERCIAL.

THE REPUBLICANS have more than 2 technical fouls. They are ONE and DONE. Now they want to call the PRESIDENT a BULLY. WHAT THE HAH HELL! You know the REPUBLICANS are shooting AIRBALLS and BRICKS. GAME CHANGE and it is NOTHING BUT NET for PRESIDENT OBAMA. SWOOSH! Now the REPUBLICANS put it out there and they can’t take the GRANDSTAND BEAT UP. Do you know what I’m talking about? Let me tell you how this works. When you open your mouthpiece be ready to hit some high notes. Going back down memory lane people use to play THE DOZENS.

You could joke all day long but you never crossed the LINE. You were never considered as a BULLY. The line was drawn in the sand at a WOMAN, MOTHER, GRANDMOTHER, and GIRLFRIEND. Sand was scattered when you talked about WOMEN in a DEMEANING MANNER. If you EVER talked about someone’s MAMA, your A..was GRASS. The question would be asked, “ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT YOUR MAMA?” That was an effective strategy to SQUASH the BS. It always appeared it never applied to their MAMA. That was back in the sixties.

Here we are over 50 plus years later. The REPUBLICANS have continued to scatter the sand, DEMEAN WOMEN, and PLAY the DOZENS. Only the REPUBLICANS have TRIPLED their amount of BS. It is TIME to ask the questions. ARE the REPUBLICANS stripping away their MAMAS, GRANDMOTHERS, SISTERS, DAUGHTERS, and GIRLFRIENDS RIGHTS? I guess this doesn’t apply to their families. The REPUBLICANS are so out of touch. Grandmothers range from 25 and above.

Back in the DARK AGES, young women were taken earlier in life to have babies. WOMEN are NEVER going back to the DARK AGES of being surrounded by so many children at their feet, a child in their womb, and being totally IGNORANT. BAREFOOT, PREGNANT and totally IGNORANT in the KITCHEN has never or will ever be what PROGRESSIVE WOMEN of the WORLD STAND FOR TODAY. Who are the PLAYGROUND HUSTLERS? WHO ARE THE BULLIES? The most recent case of one of the PLAYGROUND HUSTLER is RUSH LIMBAUGH calling the PRESIDENT a THUG.

Look at the constant bashing intentional behavior of MITT ROMNEY against the PRESIDENT. If MITT ROMNEY passes gas it is the PRESIDENT fault. JAN BREWER, Governor of Arizona, behavior was out there. No one will ever forget the snapshot of her putting her fingers in the PRESIDENT’S FACE. WHEW! This should make her grandchildren real proud. REINCE PRIEBUS, MR.JACK-ASSES compared the PRESIDENT to the CAPTAIN who abandoned a cruise liner in Italy. WOW! The CHAIRMAN of THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, MR. JACK-ASUS is totally in denial and states there is NO WAR AGAINST WOMEN.

He can’t understand why Alice In Wonderland is angry. She tried to explain to REINCE PRIEBUS there is a WAR AGAINST WOMEN. Finally, Alice had the MAD HATTER cut the SHROOMS down. The talking flowers in WONDERLAND ACCUSED ALICE of being a WEED. Alice informed REINCE PRIEBUS he needs to stop hanging out with the HOOKAH SMOKING CATERPILLAR in WONDERLAND. The MUSHROOMS had him all jacked up. Luckily ALICE didn’t get smoked by MR. JACK-ASUS. DON’T forget to read the bedtime stories to your children.

WARNING: Make sure you INTERPRET the story CORRECTLY. The content of material above is for ADULT AUDIENCES ONLY.

Let’s not forget the TAR BABY remark by Congressman DOUG LAMBORN of COLORADO. RICK SANTORUM, who is SLY SLIPPERY TONGUE FATHER LUCIFER. Cut it out SLICK RICK.

The N-Word once again almost slipped off of RICK SANTORUM tongue. There has and will be more INTENTIONAL BULLYING along with the REPUBLICANS RADICAL INTENTIONAL BEHAVIORS and their RADICAL INTENTIONAL ACTIONS.

TRAYVON MARTIN’S life and the lives that had preceded him will not go in vain. Their LIVES have OPEN A DOORWAY to reach into the house of the NRA, ALEC, the REPUBLICAN LEGISLATURE, and the dangerous laws that are being passed.

DOOR STOPPERS have been revealed as the BIGGEST BULLIES. The COLOR OF CHANGE is a grass root organization that has strive to strengthen the voices of AFRICAN AMERICANS by bringing about political awareness and addressing the needs of AFRICAN AMERICANS in government. The COLOR OF CHANGE continues to PRESS ON and apply pressure to CORPORATE COMPANIES which have supported the RIGHT WING AGENDA. The LOSS of the LIVES that were taken out by the PLAYGROUND HUSTLERS helped us to IDENTIFY WHO ARE THE BULLIES. The LOSS of a LIFE is DEVASTATING. In the DARKEST HOUR when we come OUT OF THE SHADOW and into the LIGHT it will be revealed a LOSS can be MASTERFUL GAIN. We must always remember the LOSS of A LIFE will always send a MESSAGE.

DEDICATED TO: TYLER PERRY who heard his MOTHER’S VOICE and lived to FIGHT ANOTHER DAY. YOU HELD THE FORT DOWN!

MARTIN BASHIR, MIKE PAPANTONIO who SPEAKS TO THE PEOPLE with such passion and have come OUT OF THE SHADOWS.

BERNIE SANDERS, MR. SUREFIRE/SPITFIRE continue on your journey as the WARDOG of WASHINGTON.

BIG EDDIE congratulation on your upcoming fourth year and continue to NURSE the psychological platform. D-W-I-T and BRING IT!

Congratulation on RACHEL MADDOW new book. It is TIME to ask yourself the question. DOES SMOKELBG @TWITTER, LINDA M. BALLARD on FACEBOOK or NLD Mom/cancer survivor have your Book?

LISA MURKOWSKI, regrets are good and it shows one the error of their ways. It puts you in touch with your conscious mind, understanding what is RIGHT, and WRONG. Continue to speak out for WOMEN RIGHTS.

MICHAEL ERIC DYSON, hearing you and Tyler Perry describe your near death experience sounded identical to what happened on May 8, 2011, to my son. The only difference is he was walking. Go back and review NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP__NLD MOM’S PRAYER.

I am extremely happy you made it home to your family and you HELD THE FORT DOWN.

RASHAD ROBINSON and CREW continue to move forward. CHANGE OF COLOR keeps applying the pressure so the DOOR STOPPERS are brought into the LIGHT.

SECOND CHANCE, RE-ELECT PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA, (2012)

HAPPY EASTER to EVERYONE

Hold The Fort Down

by Linda Ballard

Is it me? I don’t think so. I don’t have to wonder if my child’s life matters. I know the importance of my son’s life and the wicked hell and bullying children’s lives are put through when they appear different.

All children are important regardless if they have a neurological disorder, learning disability, behavioral disorder, or just the children in the mainstream. NO CHILD SHOULD BE LEFT BEHIND nor should ONE CHILD’S LIFE BE CONSIDERED MORE OR LESS THAN THE OTHER. Concerned parents whose children have behaviors that may seem strange, nerdy, or disabled understand what will happen to their children. I want YOU to understand.

What will happen if someone else doesn’t understand their body language, the lack of eye contact, or if the child doesn’t understand that he is violating a person’s space? I can look in my own backyard and see the danger right at my doorstep. I don’t want to wait until a death occurs within the community and realize this could be my son. As a mother, I do not wish to bury my son before me. NO PARENT DOES! How many more lives will it take?

Our children are dying and regardless of the RACE or being DISABLED it is an INJUSTICE. I never thought the day would come when I would see so many young adults lying in state at a funeral home. To see a mother stretch across her child’s coffin screaming, GOD Why? You could have taken me first. I never thought the day would come when I would hear a child say, “I’m PAID IN FULL.” I got my funeral arrangement taken care of and my mother doesn’t have to worry. We don’t live past the age of 25 in the city. DEAR LORD! What happened to our children’s spirits for them to take on this mentality? When did we start DIVIDING people’s lives up and measuring the significance of one life or one race over another? It is TIME TO HOLD THE FORT DOWN.

On March 22, 2011, I posted GOT NO TIME TO BE DISABLED. Yes, this was an eye-opener for me. TREVON, not TRAYON MARTIN, made it clear to me that he didn’t have TIME to be disabled because it would make him an easy target in his community. Everybody was viewed disabled in his community and you didn’t have to do any wrong to get killed. It was open season on Blacks. I was also informed by TREVON that being or looking disabled was a protective coating also. It would keep certain people afraid and out of your hood.

Your community had earned a certain IMAGE. BLACK on BLACK CRIME would be swept under the rug. WOW! If you lived in a nicer neighborhood and you were killed it was an INJUSTICE. WOW! Who would care about someone getting killed in the inner city or ghetto? Trevon said it was an everyday occurrence. If you are black you were under attack. He said there are special rules and gun laws to kill us all. WOW! This was only a year ago.

Trevon reminded me on several occasions to get the spelling of his name right. He said he had been to three or four funerals within 2 weeks TIME. One of his friends had gotten either wounded or killed and the spelling of his name was TRAYVON. We talked about it extensively but I dismiss it as him being superstitious. On April 25, 2011, a young man name TREVONNE WINN went to visit his family in EAST FLATBUSH BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. This young man was killed and his murder was caught on tape. The article was written by Grant Greenberg and the headline read, MISTAKEN IDENTITY KILLING CAUGHT ON SURVEILLANCE VIDEO. TREVONNE WINN was from SOUTH CAROLINA. To see his mother and twin sister speaking to the media was heart-wrenching.

When I heard about the shooting I called TREVON’s cell phone but I could not reach him. I went back to talk to his family but everyone was so tight-lipped. I remember TREVON wouldn’t give me his last name. He said the less I knew about him the better. I remember him telling me no matter how crazy the people appear to be, “AIN’T NO SNITCHES UP IN THE HOUSE.” His wicked smile would appear and in my heart, I felt he was going to be alright. I haven’t heard from him since but I light a candle and pray may GOD watch over him.

On May 10, 2011, I posted a brief story stating it didn’t matter if you were diagnosed with NLD SYNDROME. I was going for RECOGNITION OF LIFE. Too many of our children were dying. I had tunnel vision and color blindness when it came to NLD SYNDROME. It was TIME to step outside of the box. I had to realize it was just not our children with the neurological disorder at great risk but anyone can be taken advantage of. All children/adults lives are at stake. THERE IS NO PERSON IMMUNE FROM DANGER! THERE IS NO PERSON EXEMPT FROM DEATH!

This is when I recognized I no longer cared for the validation of the AMERICAN PSYCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION (APA). They were bad at their job and had not taken responsibility for putting NLD SYNDROME on the DSM5 after 41 years. DR. REIGER and his task force team could burn in RICK SANTORUM’S HELL and could DINE IN HELL’S KITCHEN. I can say that I did not walk away empty-handed. The AMERICAN PSYCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION (APA) taught me to never ENDORSE anyone who could not do the job. The AMERICAN PSYCHIATRIC ASSOCIATION has been compared to the REPUBLICAN PARTY. They are bad at their jobs, they do not care about lives, and it is all about funding. The CONTENDERS/PRETENDERS needed psychological testing with the exception of PRESIDENT OBAMA.

The contrast between the APA, the REPUBLICAN PARTY, and the PRETENDERS/CONTENDERS there are none. They are all as crazy as a “road lizard.” The PSYCHIATRIC community has never spoken out or came forward to address the madness of the debates nor the decision-making process of any candidate. Mr. ETCH A SKETCH himself should have been erased from the debates a long TIME ago. The REPUBLICANS have gotten the opportunity to display their madness, ignorance, and incompetence. I’m going to spread the joy around. We have DEMOCRATS that are out there too. Let’s not forget MR. FREEZE of LOUISIANA, WILLIAM JEFFERSON, who put 90,000 dollars in the freezer.

I guess he wanted some cold hard cash. SANDFORD BISHOP who just loved using his position to benefit his family. Not to single the BLUE DOG RUFF RUFF out, this is a great past TIME on CAPITOL HILL. GREGORY MEEKS, we will try not to have a HURRICANE around you. OOPS! There goes the funding. It is all about equal opportunity. It is hard to believe these people are elected officials of our country.

On July 12, 2011, IN THE DEFENSE FOR THE DEFENSE…NLD__A YOUTUBE MOMENT was posted. Another famous case, which was in FLORIDA, went into a BARBARIC MODE. INJUSTICE SPOKE VOLUMES and children started turning up missing by their parents. People were making jokes saying if you want to get rid of your kids take them to Florida. You will get off the hook. CHRIST! BABY LISA turned up missing in the state of Missouri. The jokes got even worse. ANGRY GRANPA had a reaction to the FLORIDA CASE that was out of this world. He took PRIME TIME HATRED to a new level. The ANGRY GRAMPA’S behavior was a revelation to DR. DREW.

On October 8, 2011, AN NLD MOTHER’S PRAYER was posted. My son decided to take his usual walk. He stopped in a small shop to make a purchase. The shop did not have what he wanted. He left and started walking home when the police pulled him over. He remembered all the talks we had and was playing the information over in his head. The officer asked him had he been to the shop. He replied in a respectful manner. My son wanted to know what he had done wrong. The officer asked if he had shouted at the girl behind the counter. He was surprised. His voice tone was the same. The officer wanted to know if he always talked loud. The rest is history. When he arrived home I was told of his experience. I was asked if there were any PRIVILEGES IN BEING BLACK. WOW! Will it always be this way? He dropped his head and said, “I HELD THE FORT DOWN and LIVED ANOTHER DAY.”

To the MILLION HOODIE MARCH: I could be that parent and that could be my son. I will continue to PRAY while YOU PRESS ON. Go forth in PEACE and remain and STAND STRONG. From this day forward, “HOLD THE FORT DOWN.”

2012 SuperBowl Flare Up_Look Who’s Rockin’ The List

by Linda Ballard

Scene: It is showtime, SuperBowl Sunday, and the guys are going down to ARTHUR BRYANTS to pick out their favorite football foods. Bobby TOURETTES, Andre ADHD, Jack PDD-NOS, Mark AUTISM, Mitt ASPERGER, and Leroy NLD are on the scene for the festivity.

Leroy NLD is checking out the prices because his girlfriend is not so big on cooking. He wants to show off his surround sound theater system that was built-in his basement by TJ SAVANT & COMPANY.

It is Bobby Tourettes turn to pay for the football bash today. Bobby is steamed under the collar at Mitt ASPERGERS comments. Mitts ASPERGER has difficulty interacting socially.

They are inside the restaurant and waiting in line to order their food. Mitt ASPERGER is looking on the wall. He can’t believe his eyes nor can he believe who has eaten at Arthur Bryants.

He has never had a REAL Community experience nor has he ever eaten in the heart of the city.

Leroy NLD:

When I wrote CHARACTERISTICS OF, this was in no way to bring any disservice to people who are diagnosed with NLD SYNDROME. We don’t get the chance to say or act like these PRETENDERS/CONTENDERS. Our problem is NEUROLOGICAL with UNINTENTIONAL BEHAVIORS. I wonder what is their real problem?

Our butts would get hauled off to jail, medicated, and strapped down in a psycho ward. We sure as hell wouldn’t be in the Zone on PSYCHO TALK with BIG ED. Look at the gaffes MITT ROMNEY makes.

He has so many soundbites on his INTENTIONAL BEHAVIORS you can make a Documentary Mini-Series on the Discovery Channel. When I speak, they are real social blunders. I will repeat my blunders several TIMES in the same way until someone corrects me.

I do not understand that it is a mistake. You must remember a lie can never be told the same way twice. When I open my mouth you will begin to realize something is wrong. Ain’t gonna be no paraphrasing. I don’t do that. There is no such thing as retracting my statement.

My mind processes information differently. I don’t read people and people definitely don’t read me. Ask me or anyone else that has been diagnosed with NLD SYNDROME a question 20 TIMES. Guess what, you are going to get the same answer 20 TIMES.

You’re not going to get an endorsement from me. If your policy stinks you will be the first to know. MITT ROMNEY has to buy votes, buy states, and buy friends. MITT ROMNEY was PASS INTERFERENCE on OBAMACARE.

His plan had a lot of the same ingredients of OBAMACARE. MITT ROMNEY passed on the plan. The first thing PRESIDENT OBAMA did when he was sworn into office was Bridge the gap by developing friends and relationships in Foreign countries to strengthen Foreign policy.

He made 4 vital phone calls. He was reaching out to other nations. The next day he was at the State Department visiting with the foreign service officers getting everyone PUMPED UP and ENERGIZED once again on worldwide international relationships.

NLDERS have a horrible TIME with relationships. All relationships are FOREIGN to us. Why do you think people with NLD SYNDROME need an Interpreter and an Understanding Manual? A lot of people underestimated the PRESIDENT on FOREIGN AFFAIRS but he caught on pretty quick.

There is a lot more than WE THE PEOPLE and OUR NATION understands under the leadership of PRESIDENT OBAMA. He has been to more countries than any PRESIDENT that has ever been in office. On the LIST of CHARACTERISTICS OF, he definitely ROCKS THE LIST and gets an A+.

Who is Rockin’ The List of BEHAVIORS? What CONTENDERS and government officials are getting away with PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSAULTS?

Bobby Tourette:

Leroy, why didn’t you talk to Mitt before coming to the inner city. Mitt ASPERGER got a lot to learn and today is not the day to teach him. You know he is going to get on the topic he likes. He will not be able to tell when others have lost interest in his topic.

Mitt ASPERGER will continue on this topic for days. You know this will piss someone off. I just wanted a barbecue sandwich. Hell, I don’t want to be on ARTHUR BRYANTS menu as Bobby burnt ends. Lord, please let me save my A.. for another day.

I hope we don’t get into a fight like we did the last TIME. SUPER BOWL or not, I ain’t going to jail. We do not have a get out of jail free card like MITT ROMNEY, NEWT GINGRICH, and RICK SANTORUM. The courts don’t understand Asperger or any other disorder.

Leroy NLD:

Yes, I heard him. Did you hear what you said? Inner City is fighting words also. I wanted MITT ASPERGER to get a real cultural outing. Bobby, you always correct me. Everyone we hang with need lots of correcting. I just wanted to see if Mitt ASPERGER could connect to the people.

I thought it was cool when Mitt ASPERGER got slapped for trying to give people handouts. He will learn before the end of the day. This is the perfect opportunity.

Bobby Tourette:

Yeah, the last TIME we went to jail I didn’t need that type of opportunity. Man, that lady’s mouth was pretty tough. Not that I have room to talk, when I get angry, my Tics kick in.

The next TIME he will think twice before he tells someone, “I bet you $20,000 you can’t get any poorer”. Insensitive fool!

Even I know better than to make people feel they are beneath me. He has one special interest and it sho ain’t people. I love the smell of money in the morning, Mr. Money-bags of MONOPOLY, MITT ASPERGER. We know OUR Mitt’s behaviors is UNINTENTIONAL.

MITT ROMNEY has many soundbites stating he doesn’t care about the VERY POOR or the VERY RICH. I just want to hear MITT ROMNEY man-up and say he wants to destroy the middle class and confess he is angry because PRESIDENT OBAMA can sing better than him. Jealousy, NOT!

You know MITT ROMNEY is looking at those numbers. All the experience he has with spreadsheets and making money. You know his butt is ROASTED TOAST now that economic conditions have improved. The President has one hell of a chance of beating MITT ROMNEY’S drawers off.

MITT ROMNEY would need to be AFRICAN AMERICAN today instead of wishing he was MEXICAN eating at ARTHER BRYANTS. I would love to see his reactions. The good news is this restaurant receives all races extremely well. Bill O’Reilly has got to eat here.

Andre ADHD:

I know how hard it is for Mitt ASPERGER. I have said some stupid things myself but my medication alerted me not to get too crazy and bet with him. “OOPS,” did I just tell everyone I take legalized drugs? It sounds better until you overdose.

Then you realize you have a substance abuse problem. In my neighborhood, you are just a hard-core addict with stolen prescriptions. Why do we get the worst end of the stick? Jan Brewer, the governor of Arizona, gets to be called RADICAL.

Jan Brewer’s extreme behavior was an offensive personal foul and a 15-yard penalty for getting into the face of the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES. She should be fined and ejected from her position as Governor of Arizona.

She is a repeat offender and the ADAM PAC MAN JONES of the REPUBLICAN PARTY. Jan Brewer’s unnecessary roughness is for attacking the teachers, firefighters, and police officers. The Republicans in Arizona feel they can silence the voice of the UNION and any other public servants.

Whatever rites the people have will be stripped away by the REPUBLICANS. One thing they can’t take away is my inabilities of focusing, PAYING ATTENTION, nor my giant boulder. Every day of my life I’m leaning more and more toward becoming Bi-Polar.

Jack PDD-NOS

You know ANDRE ADHD, you remind me of RICK PERRY Off SIDE. You are off your line of scrimmage and you tussled with getting the answer right. Did they ever get your medication straight? Hey ANDRE ADHD over here, you just can’t stay focused. Get over here!

Folks in this restaurant think I’m talking to myself. NEWT GINGRICH is UNNECESSARY ROUGHNESS and KNEE CAPPING. He is really striking below the belt. NEWT is trying to destroy MITT ROMNEY. I couldn’t believe HERMAN CAIN endorsed NEWT GINGRICH. HERMAN CAIN, “MR SHUCKY DUCKY,” of all people.

Everyone knows HERMAN CAIN has been shucked like corn and his brain is plucked like a duck.

Mark Autism:

Leroy NLD talks out loud to himself. He explained it as processing his thoughts. Leroy said if he hears what he verbalizing he can process the information better. When LEROY NLD starts processing out loud, people think he is crazy.

Bobby Tourette always says when Leroy gets mad he will hold that thought and won’t ever forget what someone has done to him. Leroy is HOLDING. He processes so much information. Leroy NLD struggles with applying old information to new ideas.

Adaptability is difficult for him but he is willing to learn. I can’t say that about the REPUBLICAN PARTY. They have a choice. The REPUBLICAN PARTY’S intentions are to HOLD the ECONOMY back. They refused to ADAPT. It benefits the REPUBLICAN PARTY and the 1% to keep things as they are.

Look at the BEHAVIORS of RON PAUL. Wouldn’t his BEHAVIOR be call HOLDING? RON PAUL gets a 10-yard Penalty for HOLDING onto past ideologies. He does tell you what is on his mind. The REPUBLICANS want him to go away because he exhibits annoying BEHAVIOR.

LEROY NLD displays annoying BEHAVIOR, not by choice, and we don’t isolate him. Everyone in our gang of six has annoying BEHAVIORS. We are singled out, called weird, and isolated from society. We have delays and our finest moments.

Mitt Asperger:

MITT ROMNEY wants to delay the economy and blame PRESIDENT OBAMA for making the economy WORSE. This is UNSPORTMAN LIKE CONDUCT and EXCESSIVE CELEBRATION. He needs to be fined and suspended. Maybe DONALD TRUMP will fire him. Can you believe this? Look whose picture is on the wall.

Is that John MCCAIN? There’s SARAH PALIN! Is that JIMMY CARTER? NO! That can’t be BILL CLINTON! It’s a miracle they came down in this community and ate with you people.

Bobby Tourette:

Did you just say, “YOU PEOPLE?” Hold up! You begin to sound like MITT ROMNEY. I let it pass when you made the comment about me paying with food stamps. I should have corrected you. Your NEWT GINGRICH remark didn’t go over to well and your BEHAVIOR got WORSE.

I know you didn’t mean any harm. You need to be held ACCOUNTABLE for your inappropriate remarks. I know you are Rocking the List but it does not excuse you. What you just said caused me to FLARE UP. It feeds my anger.

Mitt Romney has made many negative remarks, straight up lied about the remarks, and his remarks feed the PEOPLE’S anger. NEWT GINGRICH thinks he’s slick. There is nothing subliminal about his remarks.

Once you have survived HATRED or RACISM you will always know the flavor, the color, and the stench it leaves behind. Leroy NLD is our food order ready? We need to get out of here before Mitt ASPERGER cause a Race War.

The last TIME it was Nicky NLD, Leroy’s cousin, who got us thrown out for his remarks.

Leroy NLD:

Hey, man, the food is ready. Let’s head out. Well, Mitt ASPERGER what do you think about our trip today?

Mitt Asperger:

This is a real colored experience. What! Did I say something wrong?

Bobby Tourette:

We are going to get out of here and I will explain it on the way. You better be glad you are MITT ASPERGER instead of MITT ROMNEY or NEWT GINGRICH. Don’t expect a soundbite. Your mouth just wrote a check your A.. can’t pay for.

Prime Time Hatred

by Linda Ballard

If you were to take a survey on why some people watch TV, they would respond, to get their Hate On. In Broadcasting, PRIME-TIME was always the TIME after the kid’s school hours and everyone else was home from work.

Depending on your geographical location, these hours would run from 7pm-10pm or 8pm-11pm. Due to modern technology, you can now get your PRIME-TIME HATRED on at any TIME. It is called YOUTUBE, GOOGLE, WIKIPEDIA, and social media and it can be watched at a later date or looked up.

I’m not making these guys out to be the bad guys. We no longer have to wait for Nielsen Ratings. Now people have the option of not missing out on so much information because of their work hours. Bottom line, the world is progressing at light speed and we need to progress with it.

How will we ever become a competitive NATION in this GLOBAL ECONOMY if we refuse to adapt to changes?

Dr. James Peterson, before my son was ever diagnosed with NLD SYNDROME I was teaching my children where to position themselves when they would speak to people.

I taught them how important it was to monitor their voice tone, and always give eye contact to the person they were speaking to.

In the Black Community, this was the order of paying RESPECT to your elders. It was the Golden Rule you were to NEVER violate a person’s PERSONAL SPACE unless they were your friend, family, or a close associate. At NO TIME were you ever to POINT your FINGER at a person’s FACE.

This rule was emphasized to my children because in the Black Community it was a KNOWN factor if you put your FINGER in someone’s FACE you were going down and may NEVER come up for air again. The person who stuck their FINGER in your FACE was the INTIMIDATOR or BULLY.

A person or BULLY who takes this action against you is asking for trouble. It would take an act of GOD to walk away and you would always be remembered as the better man.

Whenever you were spoken to, you were to always give EYE CONTACT to let the person know you are PAYING ATTENTION. When a child/adult cannot give eye contact this is a HallMark characteristic of social interaction impairment.

These are traits and characteristics of Autism, Asperger, and NLD. Children/adults with social impairments fail to respond to their name and often avoid eye contact with other people.

They have difficulty interpreting what others are thinking or feeling because they cannot understand social cues (tone of voice and facial expression).

These children/adults don’t watch other people’s faces for cues on appropriate behaviors. Our elders were addressed as SIR or MA’AM. In answering our elder’s questions we were NEVER allowed to DISRESPECT them.

One of my kids had a very difficult TIME socially interacting with people. Here I was off and running gathering information and finding the best doctors to evaluate his behaviors. At the age of 4 yrs.,10 months the answers were given by some PROGRESSIVE DOCTORS at KU MED CENTER.

By this TIME I had become SOCIALLY ISOLATED from other parents. Parents didn’t want to go anywhere with me because I had a “SPECIAL NEEDS CHILD,” (whatever the HAH HELL that meant) he would LET IT RIP.

Even when I tried to reach out to different support groups, the parents could not identify with NLD SYNDROME because they never had heard of it. Many of the doctors had never heard of it either. The Nielsen Ratings were out and I got much rejection because I was Black.

You’d think I was the only person in the Black Community that a government agency would say, “He had to be blind, crippled or crazy to receive benefits.” Well, what the Ha Hell, he never received benefits.

Whenever he started pointing and displaying his UNINTENTIONAL BEHAVIORS, all hell would break loose. There was no room for embarrassment and I definitely wasn’t hiding my son in an attic. It was EDUCATION TIME. It has been a lifelong journey but my family has learned so much.

Some family members were divided and others were lost along the way. At the end of the day, there was enough love left to be shown to my son and other family members who stuck it out. There will be casualties, heartaches, but we will continue our commitment to a TEAM effort.

(And I am not SEAL TEAM SIX, but you do whatever it takes [DWIT])! I am not here to place the blame on anyone but I am here to take RESPONSIBILITY.

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer, the very BEHAVIOR you displayed in your moment of PRIME-TIME HATRED against The PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES can cost the lives of many children/adults.

Those who cannot read this body language may feel it is an APPROPRIATE BEHAVIOR regardless of a person’s position. Children/adults with social impairment have trouble distinguishing authority figures and cannot distinguish who is in charge.

It is for this reason that hidden residual rules need to be taught. We can never assume that they know.

They may view this photo and think that this type of behavior is ACCEPTABLE and can be done to the PRESIDENT, a POLICE OFFICER, or anyone. It should NEVER be done. You have broken a rule, a hidden residual rule, and it is TIME for you to take RESPONSIBILITY for your actions.

What will you tell your 2 children, or your grandchildren when they see this photo of you pointing your finger at the President’s face? You have a tendency to retract several of your statements and have been called out by FOX NEWS for lying.

Come on, FOX NEWS? Ah, now you know you lied to the President. Dang! If FOX NEWS called you out, come on now, you’ve got some BEHAVIORS!

Have you not experienced this with your own children? Once again you have been consistent with your BEHAVIOR for getting caught in another lie. This TIME with your visit you had with the PRESIDENT.

Jan Brewer stated it hurt you to be called HITLER’S DAUGHTER but your father never served in the military. He was a civilian and died in 1955 from lung cancer 11 yrs. after the war ended.

It hurt me as a mother to see you put your FINGER on the PRESIDENT’S FACE knowing that this BEHAVIOR can get my son hurt or killed. The biggest hurt was to learn that you lied to the PRESIDENT and have continued to be a HABITUAL LIAR.

We are supposed to learn from our hurt and pain and not destroy the lives of others. I have attended many candlelight vigils and graveside services of senseless deaths of young men and women for this same type of BEHAVIOR. WHEW! Girlfriend, you are being CALLED OUT.

Cynthia McKinney, a former Democrat from Georgia, was kicked out of the democratic party because of her involvement with a capitol hill police officer in 2006. She hit the officer in the chest with a closed fist.

Is this appropriate behavior coming from the daughter of a former police officer? I struggle with Cynthia McKinney’s behavior because I know this behavior would definitely get my son jailed by law enforcement or killed in his community!

So just don’t feel lonely Jan Brewer, because I am not targeting you. Cynthia McKinney has some PRIME-TIME HATRED going on too!

PRIME-TIME HATRED revolves around the hatred, racism, and despicable behaviors of our government officials who have disregarded the lives of their viewers, a captive audience. When you are in the public eye you have to take responsibility for whatever you say, do, or write.

You are held accountable for your WORDS, ACTIONS, AND COMMUNICATION (WAC). Our government doesn’t realize that they are affecting the lives of a global community. Jan Brewer stepped outside that bubble. WE THE PEOPLE and OUR NATION are holding you ACCOUNTABLE.

So Jan Brewer what should we do about your habitual lying and behavior? Maybe if you had been in another country we might assume you were hailing a cab? Here in America, Homey just don’t play that!

Dedicated: To the young men and women who paid the ultimate price due to the misinterpretation of body language and were caught up in a senseless death.

Side by Side Play

by Linda Ballard

Mom took me to the playground.

All the children played.

Mom watched me very carefully.

She knows I have delays.

———-

Mom came up to me repeatedly.

I didn’t know how to react.

So I shook my head and flapped my arms.

I tried to interact.

———-

The children begin to surround me.

All I could do was stare.

Mom stepped right in immediately.

She helps me become aware.

———-

This is my big moment,

To make friends and try to choose.

This is my moment for reaching out.

I did not want to lose.

———-

Mom deals with all my social blunders

She truly understands.

She loves me and encourages me.

Mom tells me, YES YOU CAN.

———-

I became so frustrated.

My behaviors begin to manifest.

I started stumping, crying, and screaming.

Mom told me it was time to rest.

———-

The children became so frightened.

They all started running away.

I was puzzled and felt very empty inside.

This was a horrible day.

———-

Understanding the concept of making friends,

Made it difficult for the children to stay.

Mom wrapped her arms around me and whispered.

It is called side by side play.

———-

This is dedicated to all the Mothers with children that have extraordinary minds with unique abilities and multi-level learning styles on Mother’s Day, wishing you the best. This also goes out to all the children across the world who have difficulty developing friendships and relationships. Hang in there, you are not alone.

Super Bowl Flare Up NLD

by Linda Ballard

We are counting down the days to the Superbowl. Emotions are running high. Our tempers are flaring up. Americans go berserk when competitive sports are involved.

Can I have a spotlight down here, please?  I just need to take a closer look at some of the players.  Thank you.  Maybe this will shine the light on why our team players are having these outbursts of anger, and explosive behaviors.

Leroy, get over here and stop acting like you own the team.  I know you don’t do well with criticism.  You upset a few of your teammates when you get loud and you were in their face.  Don’t be upset if they change the color of your shoes. You look like a Demanding Diva to the coach and the owner.

Let’s get one thing straight.  Leroy is not emotionally disturbed.  He has some negative behaviors but he is not a behavior problem.  In the Sunday paper, it had Leroy Syndrome painted as an arrogant a-hole.   He is not arrogant and he wasn’t having a bad hair day.  Leroy Syndrome is NLD.  Leroy does Leroy.  He does himself.  Leroy does have other special interests.

It appears that Leroy may have a know-it-all attitude.  He has trouble with authority figures and has a problem with identifying who is in charge.  So coach Asperger, just explains to him in a nice calm voice that the team is not his.  Sorry Coach, I forgot you have the same problem with a loud voice.  We will find someone else to do it.  Leroy does better with praises than with criticism.  Tell Mike Ditka this is good for Leroy’s self-esteem.  What is wrong with positive feedback?  We all know Leroy needs a lot of praises.

Bring that bucket over here.  Is that the understanding bucket?  That’s the wrong bucket.  Get it out of here!

Tell Dwayne and Boo Boo don’t get mad.  I know he talks loud.  The other players Asperger,  Autism, and ADHD talks loud also.  He did not mean to sound threatening.  Leroy has a right hemisphere brain disorder.  He is unable to comprehend changes in voices and body language.  The non-verbal element of his speech is disturbed.  Leroy doesn’t have rhythm.  Literally.  That’s in his voice and tone of his speech.  He can’t read the facial expressions which play a part in his loud voice.  Calmly say to him, lower your voice.  He just needs to be cued in.

Leroy would you tell them that those tennis shoes are not your lucky piece charm.  “Yes, I have a hard time adapting to change and the coach did not let me know ahead of time.”  Leroy, is there anything else you would like to tell us?  “Well, the shoes are important to me.  I have a difficult time with what is relevant or irrelevant.  I talk off task or get away from the subject.  When people don’t explain themselves and they ask me did I understand, I say no.”  Well, you heard it firsthand from Leroy Syndrome.  This will help you understand why people tell you NO.

To the owner, you have a manual on how the game is played.  It is time to get a manual on Leroy Syndrome.

This one is dedicated to Barack and Michelle Obama.  Understanding NO is important.
