It was a sad week
-- Obama was clearly race hustling in every way possible, from holding out amnesty to having his minstrel show at the White House
Almost everyone touched by the crap ended up stinking. Various conservative talk radio shows had on the usual incredibly stupid sounding black Obama supporters who can barely speak grammatical English defending this silly common joker. They all make the usual stupid arguments that Democraps always make, including those made by little White House white boy Jay Carney -- that Common is "thought to be" a "socially conscious rapper" and that only a few of his poems here and there advocate or glorify rape or murder or racism. And that of course "Eve did it too" or rather Bush or someone invited someone to the White House who had done or said something bad.
I think it may be another form of race hustling to put these second string Sharptons and Jeffersons on just to make the black sheeple Obama supporters look even dumber than the average one is. If I were one of the black independents or conservatives they usually have on to debate point/counter-point I would be insulted.

While people are free to listen to any garbage they want (except of of course, anything that does not worship the bommunist)....it is totally inappropriate for this piece of violent, envious, resentful trash to perform at the WH, but trash seeks trash. PResidents should be displaying and awarding the very best that America has to offer, but bo is trash and so are his friends and associates.
Thank you, Seal Team Six !! and all our military!!After four years of analyzing the information from a Guantanamo detainee (the courier) (Thank you, President Bush and Secretary Rumsfeld) we have "a day of feastinmg and gladness, a good day." May 1, 2011

White House Defends Invite of Political Rapper to Poetry Event

President Barack Obama, left, hugs rapper Common after a Moving America Forward rally for Democratic candidates Saturday, Oct. 30, 2010 in Chicago.(AP)The White House on Wednesday defended the invitation sent by first lady Michelle Obama to rapper and actor Common to attend a poetry event amid backlash over some of his lyrics that critics say promote violence.Common, whose real name is Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr., is not considered a gangsta rapper, but some of his songs and poems feature violent imagery.In one poem, he called for the metaphorical burning of President George W. Bush -- a "burning Bush." And in a song, he praised convicted cop-killer and former Black Panther Assata Shakur."While the president doesn't support the kind of lyrics that have been raised here, we do think some of the reports distort what Mr. Lynn stands for more broadly in order to stoke controversy," White House spokesman Jay Carney said Wednesday."He is within the genre of hip hop and rap in what's known as a conscious rapper," he said, adding that President Obama appreciates the way Common tries to get children to focus on poetry, "as opposed to some of the negative influences of life on the street."Cop killing lyrics not 'sum total'Ex Bush adviser sounds off on rapperEx Bush adviser sounds off on rapperCarney cited a Fox News report from last October that described Common as a "rap legend" whose "music is very positive."Carney added that he did not know whether the White House vetted the poetry to be recited at the reading Wednesday night."The fact is, Mr. Lynn has participated in other events in the past, including lighting the Christmas tree. I believe he's a multi-Grammy award-winning artist and he's been invited to this event about poetry," Carney said.Some conservatives have howled in protest over Common's invite."Oh lovely, White House," Sarah Palin said sarcastically in a tweet.Karl Rove, a former Bush senior adviser, called Common a "thug.""President Obama last week said he wanted to recapture that special moment we had after 9/11 and here a week later we have an example of how the White House thinks it can recapture that moment by inviting a thug to the White House -- a man who called for the death of President Obama's predecessor," Rove told Fox News.Common shrugged off the criticism."Politics is politics and everyone is entitled to their own opinion, I respect that," he said in a tweet. "The one thing that shouldn't be questioned is my support for the police officers and troops that protect us every day."In a 2007 poem entitled "A Letter to the Law," Common railed against the U.S. invasion of Iraq invasion while urban areas were being neglected."Seeing a fiend being hung/With that happening, why they messing with Saddam?"Burn a Bush cos' for peace he no push no button/Killing over oil and grease/no weapons of destruction."In 2000, Common released an album that included the song, "A Song for Assata," in which he portrayed Shakur, formerly known as Joanne Chesimard, as standing up to an abusive and lawless police force."Your power and pride is beautiful," he raps. "May God bless your soul."Shakur was convicted in the 1973 murder of New Jersey state trooper Werner Foerster. She escaped prison six years later and is now living under political asylum in Cuba.Former New Jersey state trooper Sal Maggio, who is the vice president of the Former Troopers Association, told Fox News that he opposes the White House invite to Common on the same week that law enforcement officers are honoring their fallen comrades."He shouldn't be let into the White House," he said. "I don't think any time is right for a man like this who proposes violence toward police."But Maggio said he thinks that the president and the first lady didn't know about the lyrics to this song.Common has also defended the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, the pastor at the Obamas' church in Chicago who then-candidate Obama cut ties with after videos of his explosive sermons surfaced during the 2008 presidential campaign.In the sermons, Wright accused the U.S. government of racism and in the days after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. "America's chickens are coming home to roost" after it dropped atomic bombs on Japan and "supported state terrorism against Palestinians and black South Africans," Wright said at the time."He never really was against white people or another race," Common told Electronic Urban Report in 2008. "It was more against an establishment that was oppressing people. I think we all can see that this country has problems and a lot of it starts in the political system."Common said during the 2008 presidential race that Wright's sermons were filled with love, not hate."What I picked up from the pews…was messages of love," he said. "Anything that was going on against that love he would acknowledge and expose. He's been a preacher that's helped raise one of the greatest political figures in the world, and hopefully, the next president. He's also raised one of the greatest rappers in the world."

donthate25 1 hour agothis has to stop people.....for those of YOU who r so opposed to COMMON being invited to the white house, do u really know what he said in the rap or r u jus saying what u r saying because of what FOX NEWS is telling u?????? Here are the "cop-killing" lyrics FOX NEWS is saying Common was rapping about......
There were lights and sirens, gunshots firin
Cover your eyes as I describe a scene so violent
Seemed like a bad dream, she laid in a blood puddle
Blood bubbled in her chest, cold air brushed against open flesh
No room to rest, pain consumed each breath
Shot twice wit her hands up
Police questioned but shot before she answered
One panther lost his life, the other ran for his.
Scandalous the police were as they kicked and beat her Comprehension she was beyond, tryna hold on to life she thought she'd live with no arm
That's what it felt like, got to the hospital, eyes held tight
They moved her room to room-she could tell by the light
Handcuffed tight to the bed, through her skin it bit
Put guns to her head, every word she got hit
'who shot the trooper? ' they asked her
Put mace in her eyes, threatened to blast her
Her mind raced till things got still
Opened her eyes, realized she's next to her best friend who got killed
She got chills, they told her: that's where she would be next
Hurt mixed wit anger-survival was a reflex
They lied and denied visits from her lawyer
But she was buildin as they tried to destroy her
If it wasn't for this german nurse they woulda served her worse
I read this sister's story, knew that it deserved a verse
I wonder what would happen if that woulda been me?
All this so we could be free, so dig it, yall!!!
Now.....where is he glorifying cop killing???? this was just the first verse. the rest of the song is talking about Assata(lady from 1st verse) going to jail, going to court, and her breaking out of jail and living in political asylum in CUBA!!! stay classy FOX NEWS NATION!!!!1 person liked this.
johndeagun 2 hours agoObama sez ....... "The Police Officers know how I feel about them"
Yea "they act stupidly......again"
He has a Rapper that talks about killing Police to the White House for his amusment
He sells guns to Mexican Drug Cartels that use them to killl American Police
Yesirreee Obama I think we all know deep down how you feel about Police Officers .... they must have chased you when you were a Drug Addict or something.
vanicho 3 hours agoToo bad this 'story' is a sham. It took John Stewart to show it. The entire lyrics were conveintly not played, where the rapper spoke out against the violence in the earlier lyrics. And then what about Johnny Cash? He had lyrics that said "I s h o t a man to watch him b l e e d' or another where he sang about s h o o t i n g a woman. And then they showed a clip of him being awarded a medal by Pres. Bush. And then Stewart showed a clip of Ted Nugent, where at a concert he was ranting about Obama and speaking of v i o l e n c e against him. And then showed a clip of H a n n i t y defending the rant and saying that Nugent was a good friend. Hypocritical. I wonder if the rapper was white, if this would not have been a story? The obvious answer is no, it would not have been. Just another r a c i s t attack by the right.3 people liked this. Jon Stewart is about as socially relevant as Bill Maher, idiot.
larlo 3 hours agoThe whole world is owning Fox News over ramping up the racist rhetoric today. Thanks for putting it on display Hammity, and the rest of the gang (especially the commenters!) at Fox.
