All is not well even on President Obama’s left flank. He hasn’t retreated US power from the world scene fast enough for rapper Lupe Fiasco. Which, by the way, was going to be my rap name at one point in my career.
Fiasco was performing at an Obama inaugural party when he went off into a rap about Obama and war, and that he did not vote for President Obama’s re-election. Dissent was soon stifled.
“Loopy fiasco” does certainly describe the Obama presidency…
One sector of moron culture has turned against another. Limbaugh and Beck are racists and Hamas are like those paintings of kids with the giant, sad eyes. I’ve heard it before.
You can’t even satirize people when their idiocy sinks to this level. It’s preemptive idiocy.
it wasn’t his performance that got him booted. he was wearing michelle’s new hair-do. unforgivable.
Obama thinks he’s a king, but he’s nothing but a tinpot tyrant like Robert Mugabe. Obama doesn’t know enough history to comprehend what being a king was all about back in the old days.
Kings had responsibilities, not only toward their immediate followers, but also toward their kingdom and toward their descendants. They were expected to pass it along in at least as good a condition as they received it.
They also had court jesters or court fools, such as Lupe Fiasco would have been back in the day. The court jester had the liberty to tell the king what he really thought about what was going on in the kingdom and the world. This served as an antidote to the delusional flattery that the king was always receiving from his courtiers.
The king wasn’t supposed to toss out the court jester for telling him something he didn’t expect to hear.
