A Ludacris Obama Supporter

Obama at UNITY 08 yesterday:
“I personally would want to see our tragic history, or the tragic elements of our history, acknowledged,” the Democratic presidential hopeful said.
“I consistently believe that when it comes to whether it’s Native Americans or African-American issues or reparations, the most important thing for the U.S. government to do is not just offer words, but offer deeds.”

Jake
I hear Kaine is on the move…cancelled his baseball appointment…
yes this is one Obama supporter that if Obama picks Kaine (anti gay anti choice anti stem cell…no foreign policy to add)
and McCain picks Ridge I will be thinking heavily on voting McCain.
because character went out the window finally.

Ludacris, meet the bus.
Hop under. There’s lots of company.

Yo, typical-white-person Grandma!! Make room under the bus for player Luda!!

There is no way we can believe the sincerity of Obama in his criticism. This is a man who did not condemn Bernie Mac in his offensive comment, who did not comment on Jackson’s offensive racist words, and also in his Iowa victory campaign, used 50 cent’s offensive song “99 problems”.
Hypocrite, fraud, unbelievable.

Obama HATE rises again in yet another installment of BLAME OBAMA FOR ANY AND EVERYTHING NEGATIVE THAT CAN BE IMAGINED. Blogger set your engines….GO BLAME AND HATE HIM FOR EVERYTHING!

Don’t worry – Obama isn’t going to give away any $$ to any ethnic groups. He is smarter than that. America doesn’t have any $$ to give to anyone. We already owe too much to China. Besides, one man doesn’t run the show. Congress would have to approve any reparations, and that just wouldn’t go over well with the American taxpayers, most of whom were not around 200 years ago, when African slaves and Native Americans were being mistreated and slaughtered by the white settlers who came to this land to conquer, so it’s not gonna happen. The best way for any “reparations” to be made is to provide a quality education to these two groups so that they can create their own ticket out of poverty. A good education will do that. It also can cure a lot of social ills that we currently experience, too.

Ludacris supports Obama? This is NEWS?! Would anyone actually think Ludacris would support McCain?

And again, this is what it’s been about but no one can step up to it: black culture. Obama isn’t a representative of black culture but he wants to be. And that means all of these issues will be on the table for the next four years if we elect him.
Reparations? Ain’t gonna happen, but we’ll have that fight. The reply from the usual suspects will be, “Ok, you give back the welfare and we’ll deduct that from the reparations and see where the ledger balances”, and that kind of talk will put us back in 1963.
Sorry, but it really isn’t the most pressing issue on the American agenda.
The Dems really blew it. Can they clean it up in Denver? Not without some very prominent people admitting they are wrong. Since they won’t do it, they’ll take their chances in November.
This will be fodder for books for the next century: How To Give IT Away.
Puhleeze, SF, recall Pelosi.

Truth,
I am not a member of the white race. I don’t like BO for a number of reasons and none of them have to do with race. Likewise, I don’t like McCain either for other policy reasons. But, given the fact that rap has garnered so much negative reactions by people my age who are white, I know that they will find it offensive and that will only pile on the reasons for them not to vote for him. Also, look at it this way, Hillary was called the b**** in the song. I don’t think that will be constructive in bringing unity to the party, do you? I didn’t think so…

Did Obama dust his shoulders off and put his middle finger to his nostril?
Great talent and great businessmen in the industry of degradation.

frustrated voter,
in agreement, i don’t like anything in the song, my point is it has nothing to do with unity or the lack of in any political party. It’s all about luda getting attention and the way we are stereotypically lumped together

Truth – OK, understood.

Universal hate you can believe in. Compliments of Barack H. Obama.
PUMA!

This is something that is suppose to emerge from an articulated, well-informed man for an energy policy? Huh?
“We could save all the oil that they’re talking about getting off drilling if everybody was just inflating their tires and getting regular tune-ups. You could save just as much.”
Energy savings from inflating our tires and tune-ups to be equivalent to all of the recoverable oil from offshore drilling? Including the fact that his sentence was mangled, I like to see his math involved here! And this is the “celebrity”? America is in deep trouble if he gets into office.

I can’t wait for the response from McCain’s musical friend, Brahms.

This should give Chris Matthews a thrill up his leg.

OBAMA IS UNELECTABLE. GIVE IT UP DEMOCRATS!

Can you people read? Obama only complimented them for their talent and business skills. They make bank. Much. He said, he can’t let his kids listen and that Luda should be “ashamed” of the lyrics. He did not in anyway set Luda and Jay-Z up to be spokespeople or accept an endorsement. Luda and Jay speak for Luda and Jay and anyone that openly embraces their ideals. That person would not be Barrack Obama. Unfortunately, in a country that protects free speech, he can’t control what they say about him good or bad, anymore than he can control what McCain says.

This is just too funny, people actually commenting on what will happen in the elelction from some RAPPER Lyrics.
this is just too funny.
Whats next! dissect some pro or anti obama movie script and say barack will lose or WIN.
ONCE AGAIN
THE MAN IS NOT RESPONSIPLE FOR OTHER PEOPLE THOUGHTS OR OPINIONS.

LOL…another low life friend of Obamas. He sure keeps bad company.

The REAL WINNER HERE is the RAPPER
watch his album sales go up .
All at the expense of Barack.
And the sad thing people will actually think the rapper truly cares about Barack.
had he care.. he would make a UNITY video like the member from the group black eye peas.

What a waste of time. Since when did Luda & Jigga become important voices in American politics?

Senator Obama .. do you have any comments on this??
“Why umm – sure .. well ya see .. people are gonna .. umm .. well .. ya see ..
Thank you sir!

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think Sean Hannity’s head is going to explode.
He’s going “Coo Coo for Coca Puffs” on todays show.
Now he called Ludacris a “Radical” too.
What a racist hate monger.

The lyrics to both of these “songs” are very offensive – I’m sure they will both become hits.

Obama’s working on “AIDS awareness” with Ludacris? Now that’s ludicrous. Maybe he should advise his friend to stop glorifying promiscuous sex in his songs and videos. That should prevent at least a few thousand people from getting AIDS.

The list of people whose comments/statements/views/lyrics Obama has denounced grows even longer. Is anyone keeping tally? I lost count soon after Rev. Wright.

I think Ludacris is not from Obama campaign. Obama can not be responsible for the comments or lyrics of any rappers or pop stars. The media and the rapper should discuss about this.

“National CNN”
CNN is a joke. They’re the Fox news of the left.

McCain may not get any support from rappers. None have endorsed him to my knowledge. Obama continues to raise millions but can’t seem to pull away in the polls. A recent poll shows McCain ahead by 4 points among likely voters. Other polls vary but are quite close.

Obama knows how to pick his friends…

Is this one of Obama’s friends speaking for him under cover?

Wow. And Ludacris is Barack’s favorite rapper. How impressive. So he won’t let his daughter’s listen to it? HE (nor anyone else who is a respected figure) shouldn’t listen to this vile filth.
President McCain looks better every day.

Obama should have NEVER even promoted these sick thugs even with a hint of praise. EVER. Oprah refuses to let most rappers on her show. Especially Ludacris.
JUST ONE MORE REASON not to elect this fraud.

Does Obama have any normal associations? Just asking.
Bill O’Reilly loathes Ludacris (as we all should) and he’ll have a field day with this one.
Yahooo. Can’t wait.

I rather have the war hero, over the ………?

Barackstar, still getting his faxes from Daily Kos. Lol.
The only problem you have with Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity is they expose the bad stuff about democrats that you want kept undercover.
For that alone I love them.

Guess how many PRO McCain posts are on this thread? Go ahead, guess…..
ZERO!!
Because that is the EXACT chance McCain has in becoming POTUS!
ZERO!!

Barackstar,
I’ll compare New York Times track record of truth telling vs. Fox any old day of the week. The retraction column of the NYT is filled daily.
Nice try though. But you lose again. Try to keep up.

Barack spends millions on his overseas tour and all he has to show for it is 4 points behind McCain.
Oh yeah, and always having to defend against not visiting the wounded troops.
Axelrod, where can the GOP send their checks? Lol.

reality is not relevant for a leftist. They re write history to fit their needs. there need is to make everyone else non relevant. which is true. Because only a leftist has any relevance in life. After all they cannot compete in a real job so they create jobs by taxing everyone else. then create jobs to look into looking into jobs. …. That take a real education to pull that off with out the tax payers revolting. As a leftist they will tell you they are that smart.

Giveaways with no way to pay…
Translation: the Obama economic plan…

“We are not electing a President based merely on his resume or years of service.”
Because the empty-suit has neither.

Barak sure has some interesting friends.

Still won’t vote for Obama, but really like his stance on this issue. If we all raised our children the same convictions the world would be a better place. This is the first time I think I’ve been proud of something he’s done. Unfortunatly I cannot vote for a socialist.

You guys should just hang it up.See I was the only one who voted for W last time and he won.So it must only matter who Im voting for this time.Right.
Surely as bad as everyone has painted W press has already elected the next POTUS.
No one here had anything to do with W winning last time.
I remember thinking how much worse we would have been with John Kerry and Even if its bad now .I think it would be many times worse with Kerry in office.

The name says it all. LUDACRIS

Funny, all these different people Obama keeps being associated with, then of course he has totaly different views……I wonder……..if he keeps dising from the hood, he may loose a lot of votes….

Amazing. This is, wihtout a doubt, the most hateful, negative, fact-lacking, opinionated presidential campaign we’ve ever had,… and the presidential hopefuls haven’t even been crowned by their respective power mongers yet. The people are showing exactly what their made of. The two candidates have hardly even said anything to each other, yet their polarized armies are ready to go to war,… against each other. Frankly, if these two candidates are going to bring out this kind of behavior amongst Americans, I have no interest in either one of them,… or their mindless zombie mouthpieces. Really, people, neither side has any right opening their traps about hate,… that’s all either camp seems to do.

Obama/Ludacris in ’08

When Obama looses the election in November for president, he can run for president of Europe. Ha, Ha, Ha,…

BHO will never earn the respect of the honest black man because of crap like this. McCain08

I’ll take rappers visiting our next prez over the hoodlums that Bush has surrounded himself with. Which hurts more, lyrics or bullets?

So…..is the bus like one of those big city buses with the expander unit in the middle? Hope so, cuz all his friends are gonna need the space under there. He shoulda priced one of those double deckers while he was posing with Gordon Brown the other day.

When will the music industry stop supporting and promoting such negative artists? I don’t want censorship, but surely some brother has a more positive message out there to shout about. When will the world stop spreading anger and hate?! When will music executives start promoting positive artists? America is tired of negativity. Rise above y’all.

I can’t say any more than what’s already been said about how low rent and juvenile this unmusical abortion is or the disappointing associations and actions of Senator Obama but even the sharpest critics have not denied the claim that Luda is a “great talent”. Great talent? Please. Having the ability talk in rhythm and produce “go nowhere” tracks does not a “great talent” make. If you like this stuff, fine but folks, it does not require “great talent”.

HELLO
Does anyone remember what the real world problems are and the efforts Sen. Obama is trying to make to help this country. It could be worse, he could like country music and what if he knew
so and so What does that matter? Get a LIFE. He is not responsible for what these fools write or sing or rap. Some are talented some are not, so what! Give the man a break he is not asking anyone to buy their albums but mearly to VOTE FOR HIM.

vslay – No you dont. This is one more Obama associate in along line of racist, radical left, anti-american, ideologues. Show me your friends, and I’ll tell you who youy are. You guys can only spin this recurring theme so many times. As for him trying to help the world,,,, What have you ever seen from him that warrants confidence that he could or would?

I am no Obama supporter but in no way is Obama responsible for Ludacris’s rap. Further, Ludacris is free (as are we all) to rap about whatever he wants. But we are all free to decide how to react to this.
In politics, everything that anyone close to a candidate does or says is in play. That’s just the nature of the game.
What I do find VERY interesting is that Obama admitted he listens to Ludacris while at the same time also admits he does not want his own daughters exposed to Ludacris because of how his rap lyrics might affect his daughters. Weird human logic, I guess.

May I quote another talented person, Justin Timberlake…Cry Me A River!!!
You guys act like you care about whether Obama likes Ludacris or his lyrics. Face reality and stop hiding behind every little issue that arises.
Reality…more than half of you have used the “N” word or the “B” word in everyday life. If you think McCain, with his notorious temper, is spitting out non-offensive words in his personal tirades…you’re sadly mistaken.
You just wanna knock Obama down no matter what.
I get it that you don’t like Obama. Give me one reason why? (Please spare me the guilty by association game, I want facts about him.) Convince the undecided voters that your points are valid.
I think I know why, but prove me wrong. Some of you are doing it for racist reasons, some for class reasons and others are doing it just cause they’re followers and couldn’t lead if their lives depended on it.

The McCain video of Obama with the two blonde whatever gals, Britney and Paris, happened in close timing yesterday to Ludacris’s infamous song release. I couldn’t help but observe a certain serendipity in this interplay of events which favored Obama. For one, the clearly petty McCain video and its controversies deflected attention from Ludacris’s noxious song lyrics and his associations with Obama, something his damage control spoxes probably appreciated. So once again, Lady Fortune, aided by the McCain campaign, bestows her advantages to Obama. Or perhaps it’s best summed up as “WHATEVER!” by Paris and Brit.

Just like Rev Wright, Rev Plager, former terrorist Myers etc.. Obama isnt saying these horrible things but it is revealing because he is very very liberal and these are the views of the liberal left; the people he represents. It isnt suprising that he went to a far left church.
How many times have you heard far left liberals say how much they hate Bush, even on a personal level? They do all the time, they hate Bush as a person and this is Obama’s base. McCain has a view crazy friends too, but so far the crazies in his base have not turned out to be people he knows very well. We shall see if more of Obama’s radical circle of associates and friends come out in public.

Why is it McCain can have an ad with Obama linked to Briney Spears and Paris Hilton. Look at who they are, one went to jail for several DWIs and one was in the crazy house. What a pair to be linked to. A drug addict and a jail bird.

Obama condemns these lyrics. Nah, he’s “just messin’ with” us!

Tell me why any time a Obama supporter says something negative it somehow gets twisted as if Obama himself have spoken.
If we are not on Obama’s payroll, an advisor or on the campaign commitee…we arespeaking as an american with a opinion. Nothing more and nothing less. Stop blaming the man for every single comment that comes out someone elses mouth.

So blind — God I wished you had paid this sort of attention to Obama’s actions last year. Maybe if the press actually talked to people on the ground (rather than sit in their chairs and pontificate about how great Obama was) they would have seen the man that many of us saw.
Obama’s campaign ROUTINELY played J-Z’s 99 Problems at victory parties — including, most notably, in Iowa when he trounced Hillary. Listen to the words, Jake. This is not anything new.
Remember Obama’s shoulder brush — where, in reference to Hillary and the ABC debate, he brushed the “Dirt off his Shoulder” ala Jay-Z? Then he wiped the #### off his shoe in reference to same? Totally innocuous, right?
You remember Wright and Phleger calling Hillary a racist and a “hater” – a white supremacist member of the 4H (for 4Haters) club? Where was Obama then? Could not even bring himself to express regret for the pain those comments caused.
You remember Michelle Obama admonishing voters not to vote for Hillary – because, well, a woman who can’t keep her own house in order can’t keep the White House in order? Nice.
Even now — in connection with the Ludacris comments – Obama does not apologize on the rapper’s behalf, or express regret for the impact of the words on Hillary (or the pain it causes those who support her). Instead, he relates it to himself (AS ALWAYS) and is sorry his own daughters have to hear it.
You hear Obama make comments about being “likeable enough” and you think it is just a regular jab. Women hear it and feel it reveals a deep misogyny. Funny, he never reduces McCain’s positions to “silly season.”
Obama knew Ludacris before the campaign – he approached him to help get the young black vote out. You think Obama was unaware of the kind of lyrics that are in his songs?
Obama still will not reach out to women — he still tells them, Hillary supporters, and even women in the Congressional Black Caucus to “get over it.” Way to show you care, Barack.
He routinely makes it clear that we are superfluous and unimportant. He is dismissive, and has kicked sand in our faces time after time. The list is too long — but it includes Patti Solis Doyle, backtracking on the mental health exception, and refusing to work for our votes because he thinks he can use abortion as a hammer to put us in his column.
And you wonder why Hillary’s women won’t get on board with this guy?
When will you see him for what he is???

Drew, I’m actually an Obama supporter. I sometimes fly off into humor as a release from the political tension these days. I observed an irony with the McCain campaign deflecting attention away from Ludacris with the incredibly bad and timed video. I find personally the Ludacris lyrics offensive and misogynist, but I don’t associate his lyrics to Obama, which is perhaps the intention of some of the showcasing. I also respect the AIDS work Ludacris has done. Sometimes we just have to stop taking ourselves so seriously.

TW Said=Tell me why any time a Obama supporter says something negative it somehow gets twisted as if Obama himself have spoken.

Stop blaming the man for every single comment that comes out someone elses mouth.====Than maybe it was his pesky supporters he was reffering to when he said others will be pulling race into the election and reminding everyone he is Black.
Funny only racists rants making the news are the ones from Obama and his supporters/friends.

Kat,
I read it wrong. That message was meant for badger.

Every time I think I will vote for Obama, I am reminded anew of who Obama’s friends are and who he’d have sleeping in the Lincoln bedroom and I have to re-evaluate whether Obama could be trusted. No matter how old and out-of-touch John McCain may be, there is no doubt he loves and reveres America. He is a patriot who has sacrificed for this great Nation and he would never dishonor the office of President or allow such shameless disrespect to be perpetuated on our land and it institutions. I can’t even begin to say the same words about Barrack Obama.

Rest assured that Big News is in 24 hour hyperdrive, furiously trying to find a singer/celebrity who supports McCain or has any association whatsoever with the GOP who has written something untoward about Obama.. their MO has always been, when it’s a Repucblican supporter who says something outrageous, thrust a mike in front of the leading GOP candidate and ask him to defend them… when it’s a Democrat supporter saying something equally outrageous, go and find a similarly crude remark/action on the right and say “See.. see! they’re just as rotten as our side!!”

Obama wants change. Yours, mine, everyones Change$$$$$$$.

Reverend Wright-Dot, Mr. Obama-Dot, Pennyslvania clinging to their guns and Bibles-Dot, Being Friends with that terrorist-dot, Not visiting the wounded-Dot, Ludacris-Dot, That real estate association-Dot….. Now connect the Dots… Do you see what many see. It is Character… Obama is a “Character” Not a Man with Character!

Obama can criticize rap artist a bit more harshly than he could Wright, because he doesn’t know most, if not any of them, on a personal bases that he does with reverend Wright; someone he considered his close friend. I have friends who say ignorant things or things I don’t agree with and even offended by, it isn’t like the next day they’re not my friends anymore. I’m no fair weather friend. And if everyone scolded their friends for every offensive thing they did, you’d have only one friend, yourself. Personally, Wright didn’t say anything that offended me nor thousands of other Americans. I just thought he was expressing anger when he spoke against American policies, like conservatives express anger when they criticize America on Fox every night. Some were angry because they were primmed to be angry to begin with; those searching any reason to validate their bias against Obama or even their bias against the Democratic party for what they perceive they represent, were more offended.

I wouldn’t believe anything that came out of Obama’s mouth. He has already proven he’s a good liar.

A financial budget lets us know what we should can’t buy, however it doesn’t stop us from buying it.
