but I'm puke f*cking sick of all this black black horseshit in regards to Obama. Really.... although I'm no fan I'm not forming my opinions based on his race. I just don't even care to follow the news anymore.
I am not qualified to assess the intellectual faculties of others.
But I am aware that I am here to get rid of my ignorance
in the words of John Prine
She was a levelheaded dancer on the road to alcohol,
I was just a soldier on my way to Montreal.
Well, she pressed her chest against me about the time the jukebox broke.
She gave me a peck on the back of the neck, and these are the words she spoke.
Blow up your TV, throw away your paper, go to the country, build you a home.
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches, try and find Jesus on your own.
I sat there at the table, and I acted real naive.
Cause I knew that topless lady, she had something up her sleeve.
She danced around the room awhile and she did the hoochy coo.
Yeah, singing a song all night long, telling me what to do.
Blow up your TV, throw away your paper, go to the country, build you a home.
Plant a little garden, eat a lot of peaches, try and find Jesus on your own.
Well, I was young and hungry, and about to leave that place.
Just as I was going. she looked me in the face.
I said "You must know the answer," she said "No, but I'll give it a try."
To this day we've been living our way, here is the reason why.
We blew up your TV, threw away your paper, went to the country, build us a home.
Had a lot of children, fed 'em on peaches, they all found Jesus on their own.
My statistics proove that i am still ignorant.
I still seek a decent education to enlighten me before my death.
I believe he will be a good president, as recent presidents go. His color is immaterial to me.

For whose benefit, Lash? I thought the sarcasm dripped off your post.

Did y'all read about that interview with DMX, the rapper? It's hilarious...
DMX: Here I Am -- Interview in XXL Mag
Excerpts...
[b]Are you following the presidential race?[/b]
Not at all.
[b]You're not? You know there's a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there's Hillary Clinton.[/b]
His name is Barack?!
[b]Barack Obama, yeah.[/b]
Barack?!
[b]Barack.[/b]
What the **** is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?
[b]Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.[/b]
Barack Obama?
[b]Yeah.[/b]
What the ****?! That ain't no fuckin' name, yo. That ain't that nigga's name. You can't be serious. Barack Obama. Get the **** outta here.
[b]You're telling me you haven't heard about him before.[/b]
I ain't really paying much attention.
[b]I mean, it's pretty big if a Black
[/b]
Wow, Barack! The nigga's name is Barack. Barack? Nigga named Barack Obama. What the ****, man?! Is he serious? That ain't his fuckin' name. Ima tell this nigga when I see him, "Stop that bullshit. Stop that bullshit" [laughs] "That ain't your fuckin' name." Your momma ain't name you no damn Barack.
[b]So you're not following the race. You can't vote right?[/b]
Nope.
[b]Is that why you're not following it?[/b]
No, because it's just?-it doesn't matter. They're gonna do what they're gonna do. It doesn't really make a difference. These are the last years.
[b]But it would be pretty big if we had a first Black president. That would be huge.[/b]
I mean, I guess
. What, they gon' give a dog a bone? There you go. Ooh, we have a Black president now. They should've done that **** a long time ago, we wouldn't be in the fuckin' position we in now. With world war coming up right now. They done fucked this **** up then give it to the Black people, "Here you take it. Take my mess."
[b]Right, exactly.[/b]
It's all a fuckin' setup. It's all a setup. All fuckin' bullshit. All bullshit. I don't give a **** about none of that.
[b]We could have a female president also, Hillary Clinton.[/b]
I mean, either way it doesn't matter. I don't care. No one person is directly affected by which president, you know, so what does it matter.
[b]Yeah, but the country is.[/b]
I guess. The president is a puppet anyway. The president don't make no damn decisions.
[b]The president
they don't have that much authority basically?[/b]
Nah, never.
[b]But Bush pretty much
[/b]
You think Bush is making fuckin' decisions?
[b]He did, yeah, he fucked up the country.[/b]
He act like he making decisions. He could barely speak! He could barely fuckin' speak!
Can't be serious. He ain't making no damn decisions.
[b]Well Barack has a good chance of winning so that might be something.[/b]
Good for him, good for him.
Cracked me up.
I guess we have the verdict. He's not really black.
my favorite part of the interview:
Quote:The president

You think Bush is making ****' decisions?
He did, yeah, he **** up the country.
He act like he making decisions. He could barely speak! He could barely ****' speak! Can't be serious. He ain't making no damn decisions.
Here's my favorite part.

I bet you if a white person said this they'd be accused of being racist.
It's good to see multi-million dollar rap artists give their opinions about politics. Very humbling.

Of course. You have to convert to Judaism to be able to safely make Jewish jokes as well.
(paraphrased from Seinfeld sp?)
"I think he converted for the jokes!"
"This offends you as a Jew?"
"No! This offends me as a
comedian!"

It really shows you how far we've come as a country.
His opinion shows why we're where we are....
Dean William R Inge has this opinion.

united by a delusion
about its ancestry and
the common hatred
of its NEIGHBORS"
