			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Rapper and White House Guest Common didn&#8217;t just &#8220;rap&#8221; his opposition to mixed-race relationships. In a 2005 interview he <strong>spoke out </strong>against mixed-race relationships. Meet Rev. Jeremiah Wright&#8217;s pal:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="391" height="315" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aSXnQkqYqA4?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="391" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aSXnQkqYqA4?fs=1&amp;hl=en_US" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Simply put, that Jeremiah Wright gives me the creeps. How in the world President Obama could expose those two beautiful girls of his to that man&#8217;s stench of hate for all those years is beyond me. But I forget that when you&#8217;re a Leftist nothing you say qualifies as hate nor is it a violation of your tax-exempt status when you politick for a specific candidate from the pew.</p>
<p>And if you&#8217;re a Leftist rapper like Common, the same double standard applies. It&#8217;s not hate-speech to call for the burning of an American president and racial separatism when it comes to relationships. Better yet, the &#8220;poetry&#8221; of those words qualifies you as distinguished enough to warrant a White House audience with President Obama and the First Lady at an event titled &#8220;An Evening of Poetry.&#8221;</p>
<p>Via <a href="http://nation.foxnews.com/common/2011/05/10/poet-rev-wright-defender-and-promoter-cop-killing-invited-white-house">Fox Nation</a>, here are some of Common&#8217;s greatest hits:</p>
<blockquote><p>In fact, Common rapped at the 2008 New Year celebration at Wright’s church. “I’m gonna let you know / No people want drama / We gonna vote for my man / What’s his name? Obama … Revolution is here,” he sang, and the Rev. Wright danced in the background. &#8230;</p>
<p>“Flyer say Free Mumia on my freezer,” he raps in another. Mumia Abu-Jamal is an incarcerated former member of the Black Panther Party who was convicted in 1981 for killing a Philadelphia police officer. &#8230;</p>
<p>Common has also been a vocal opponent of mixed race relationships and believes black men and white women should not date. In one rap he says, “I don’t know what it is / but white girls gettin’ ass / I know what it is / It’s cash.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Common&#8217;s racist opposition to mixed race relations goes beyond a crude song lyric. He not only opposes the mixing of the races, he sees women outside his race as nothing more than objects of personal sexual gratification. From<a href="http://www.futureproducers.com/forums/music-genres/rap-hip-hop-r-b/commons-view-interracial-relationships-123469/"> a 2005 interview</a>:  </p>
<p><span id="more-474248"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>COMMON: I don’t think there’s anything the matter with somebody loving somebody from another race but it’s almost like a stereotype that if you’ve got dreadlocks you go out with a white girl. just feel like, as black men, we do have to be aware that, yo, every time we step out with some woman it’s setting an example for our daughters and it’s also representing something for our mothers. If you can’t really love your own, how can you really love others?</p>
<p>TOUCH: So you don’t agree with mixed race relationships?<br />
COMMON: I disagree with them. It&#8217;s a lack of self-love. It&#8217;s a problem.</p>
<p>TOUCH: Have you ever dated outside your race?<br />
COMMON: Nah, not dated [giggles].</p>
<p>TOUCH: Have you slept with anybody outside your race?<br />
COMMON: Yeah, I definitely have.</p></blockquote>
<p>More via <a href="http://dailycaller.com/2011/05/10/palin-raps-white-house-rapper/">Daily Caller</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>The 2007 rap includes threats to kill police and a call to kill then-President George W. Bush.</p>
<p>“Them dick boys got a lock of cock in them</p>
<p>“My people on the block got a lot of [Tu]pac in them…</p>
<p>“Burn a Bush cos’ for peace …”</p></blockquote>
<p>Maybe the invitation is all a big ruse, a sting of some sort so the Secret Service can get a hold of this guy.</p>
<p>If not, the President and First Lady are debasing the people&#8217;s house in an unprecedented way. To give a racist thug like Common the White House stamp of approval is, unfortunately, not at all surprising at all for this White House. Neither the president nor our media seems to understand that inviting Common to the White is no different than inviting, say, a country singer who endorsed Bush from the pew of the Koran-burners church and, just like Common, opposes mixed race relations and promotes of cop killing.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve gone from p[resident Clinton repudiating Sister Souljah to the Obama White House embracing this.</p>
<p>Is it 2012 yet?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When Andrew Breitbart takes on a left-wing news meme, you’ve gotta give him credit:  he comes prepared.  After drawing the ire of the NAACP for challenging their resolution against alleged Tea Party racism, Breitbart’s <a href="http://www.biggovernment.com/">Big Government</a> set off the blogosphere with video of Shirley Sherrod, a government official speaking at an NAACP-sponsored event, drawing cheers and laughter from her audience while recounting a time when she denied help to a white farmer solely because of his race.  While Ms. Sherrod went on to make a point about looking past racial differences, these questions remain: why did no one speak up?  Why was there only positive feedback from the audience at this point in the story? </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-377170 aligncenter" title="40NAACPImageAwards" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2010/07/40NAACPImageAwards.jpg" alt="40NAACPImageAwards" width="318" height="400" /></p>
<p>For which group is there more evidence of members assenting to racist comments:  the Tea Party or the NAACP?  </p>
<p>While the national leftist media outlets continue to fall over themselves trying to figure out a spin on the story that sticks, we at Big Hollywood thought we’d double down with some analysis of the NAACP’s treatment of racism in the entertainment industry.</p>
<p>For 41 years, the NAACP has awarded “Image” awards to black entertainers who achieve excellence in the arts.  Despite its rightful role in celebrating the accomplishments of people of color in the arts, the awards show has also been beset by controversy.  Several nominees and winners of awards have engaged in openly racist behavior.  For example, Jamie Foxx, a winner of multiple NAACP Image awards, called Miley Cyrus a “<a href="http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/b118545_jamie_foxx_slams_miley_cyrus_make_sex.html">little white bitch</a>” who should “catch chlamydia on a bicycle seat.”  The NAACP has yet to comment on Foxx’s remarks.  Going beyond hatred for one white person, rapper Ice Cube released a song in 1993 titled “Enemy,” with <a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/enemy-lyrics-ice-cube.html">lyrics</a> that state:<span id="more-377166"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>[Referring to Martin Luther King Jr’s “I Have a Dream” speech]</p>
<p><em>You gonna grow old holdin’ crackers’ hands<br />
Before you hold each others’ hands?<br />
You gonna walk with your enemy<br />
Before you learn to walk with one another?<br />
How sick can you be? …<br />
Please don’t [shoot] til you see the whites of his eyes,<br />
The whites of his skin, the whites of his lies.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Two years later, Ice Cube was nominated for an Image award for his role in the film <em>Higher Learning.</em></p>
<p>His other songs are reprehensible as well. &#8220;No Vaseline&#8221; makes derogatory statements about Jews, but the actual<a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/no-vaseline-lyrics-ice-cube.html" target="_blank"> focus of the song</a> revolves around anally raping and shooting/lynching his former N.W.A. colleagues.  &#8220;Black Korea&#8221; is <a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/black-korea-lyrics-ice-cube.html" target="_blank">unabashedly racist</a> against Asian-Americans.  After peppering the song with slurs (&#8220;Oriential one-penny counting motherfuckers,&#8221; &#8220;little Chinese motherfucker,&#8221; &#8220;your chop suey ass&#8221;), Mr. Cube says, &#8220;So pay respect to the black fist/ Or we&#8217;ll burn your store right down to a crisp.&#8221;  Sounds a little too close for comfort to the racially incendiary art of another <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/news/opinion/opedcolumnists/item_i64EBll6xxldvXWeLPmZOM" target="_blank">Image award winner.</a> No NAACP statement has ever been made condemning his endorsement of racially motivated violence.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-377174 aligncenter" title="ogco_naacp_0107" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2010/07/ogco_naacp_0107.jpg" alt="ogco_naacp_0107" width="320" height="240" /></p>
<p>As is commonly criticized in rap lyrics, the “N” word is all too often used and abused.  <a href="http://racerelations.about.com/b/2009/09/28/oprah-and-jay-z-reopen-n-word-debate.htm">Jay-Z</a> and Whoopi <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/17/whoopi-and-elisabeth-spar_n_113316.html">Goldberg</a> have each stated that they use the term to delineate brotherhood and try to co-opt its original hateful meaning, which I understand completely.  I can’t count the number of times I’ve called myself an evil neocon in jest, attempting to turn a stupid pejorative into a word with no power to intimidate or silence any person by grouping him or her with a label that immediately assigns hate and ostracism.  But in rap music, the use of “n*gger” is often derogatory, not uplifting.  Consider lyrics from Image award winners <a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/im-a-beast-lyrics-r-kelly.html">R. Kelly</a>, <a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/hit-em-up-lyrics-2pac.html">Tupac Shakur</a>, and—oh yes, nominee <a href="http://www.metrolyrics.com/ignorant-shit-lyrics-jayz.html">Jay-Z</a>.  Perpetuating the “N” word’s use as a hateful and demeaning slur against African Americans is exactly what the NAACP should be denouncing, not rewarding.</p>
<p>And for these artists, the racially insensitive expressions are not limited to lyrics themselves.  In the music video for “<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVA-xTBeHyM">Run This Town</a>,” a collaboration between Jay-Z, Kanye West, and Rihanna (all three are Image winners &amp; nominees), the artists lead a flame-engulfed riot, dressed in outfits similar to groups that promote racially motivated violence:  the PLO (keffiyehs), the KKK (pointed hoods—but they’re black!), and the Black Panthers (plain, all-black shirt &amp; pants with black beret—but, of course, this could just be a reference to beatniks, right?).</p>
<p>And, to top it all off, this past year the NAACP gave an Image award to Van Jones, the former Green Jobs Czar who casually singled out “<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBI41AdkAB8">white polluters</a>,” stereotyped that “<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSoOMX65DfA">only white suburban kids shoot up schools</a>,” and decried Israel’s “<a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/bighollywood/2009/09/05/obama-czar-van-jones-cut-vile-anti-american-album-in-2003-nsfw/">occupation</a>” of Israel.  Benjamin Jealous gave Jones the NAACP President’s Award at the 41st annual Image Awards.  “Van Jones is an <a href="http://www.cnn.com/2010/OPINION/02/23/jealous.naacp.van.jones/index.html">American treasure</a>,” he reasoned. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVA-xTBeHyM"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/yVA-xTBeHyM/default.jpg"/></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>Now, the temptation here is to use the tactics of the left, to declare these men and women wholly bad and to disregard any artistry, charity, or basic humanity for which they should be shown respect.  To do that, or to label the NAACP as an organization that tolerates and welcomes racism as the Left has labeled the Tea Party movement, would be disingenuous and irresponsible.  One person making racist statements or statements construed as racism indicates nothing about the people who constitute the majority of and define the values of a group.  But let’s look at how said majority has reacted to racism in both the Tea Party and the NAACP.</p>
<p>This last April 15th, a small movement of agent provocateurs mobilized to try and embarrass Tea Partiers at nationwide protests.  In <a href="http://biggovernment.com/publius/2010/04/16/friday-free-for-all-crasher-edition/">several locations</a>, individuals espousing white supremacy or other hateful sentiments were booed and forced away from the crowd.  Whether these people were leftists trying to forge some evidence for the “Tea Partiers are Racist” meme or genuine racists trying to piggyback off the Tea Party’s popularity, the overwhelming majority of Tea Party members showed that racism has no place in their movement. </p>
<p>Compare this with the NAACP’s reaction to clear racism in both the political and entertainment world.  Ms. Sherrod’s remarks, before revealing her change of heart, were greeted by her audience with murmurs of approval, chuckles, and absolutely no objections.  Reverend Jeremiah Wright’s audience has been a tad more enthusiastic in <a href="http://www.breitbart.tv/flashback-naacp-crowd-cheers-jeremiah-wright-mocking-white-people/">response</a> to his <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3wh2XT4e8M">hateful comments</a>, with no rebuke from Mr. Jealous’ organization.  The NAACP has nominated the aforementioned artists for Image awards, given them the prizes—sometimes more than once—and never once condemned their openly hateful speech.  At the very least, even if the opportunity to deny an artist a nomination has passed, the organization could issue a statement saying that such behavior is not appropriate for those who have been honored with Image awards. </p>
<p>The NAACP ought to hold those it designates as role models for the black community to higher standards than this.  If it continues to ignore the propagation of racially incendiary and violent expression, the group has no leg to stand on when condemning the Tea Party.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So last month we told you about &#8220;JournoList,&#8221; a private email group of liberal journalists who secretly conspired to promote a progressive pro-Obama agenda. Once this group was exposed &#8211; it was disbanded.</p>
<p>But now Tucker Carlson and the Daily Caller have the emails, some revealing a plot by the hacks to kill the Jeremiah Wright story during the 2008 primaries &#8211; and also to smear anyone who criticizes Obama. The smear, of course, would be an accusation of racism.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"> <img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-376958" title="0" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2010/07/01.jpg" alt="0" width="408" height="306" /><br />
Spencer “call them racists” Ackerman</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s one email from a a sad little finger-sniffer named Spencer Ackerman, which explains nearly 99 percent of all the crap you&#8217;re seeing right now targeting the Tea Party. He writes:</p>
<blockquote><p>If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they&#8217;ve put upon us. Instead, take one of them &#8211; Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares &#8211; and call them racists. Ask: why do they have such a deep-seated problem with a black politician who unites the country? What lurks behind those problems? This makes *them* sputter with rage, which in turn leads to overreaction and self-destruction.</p></blockquote>
<p>Now, I guess this a bombshell: proof that lefties in the media engage in deliberate, dishonest destruction of reputations in order to further their own political aims. <span id="more-376942"></span></p>
<p>But here&#8217;s the real moral: the same libs who said Obama was going to lead us into a new post racial world, are pretty much the same creeps fanning a racial division. Ackerman, a faux tough guy typing from his hidey hole, realizes that without the accusation of race, he&#8217;s got nothing to shield an incontinent ideology.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s what you&#8217;d call a real, honest-to-God race-monger. Which makes you wonder, why does he lack so much confidence in his own leader? Why does he have such a deep-seated problem with a black politician who unites the country? What lurks behind those problems?</p>
<p>Maybe he&#8217;s racist.</p>
<p>And if you disagree with me, you&#8217;re a Nazi-loving Grand Dragon who eats at McDonald&#8217;s.</p>

<p>Happy mayhem surrounds Sarah Palin.  Pushing, snapping, hugging.  I couldn&#8217;t get near her if I tried, so I just stood in the back watching the circus.  At one point, I couldn&#8217;t resist, while she was signing Ron Rivoli&#8217;s guitar, I reached out my arm through the crowd and touched her red jacket with my finger!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-336858" title="bestsarahpalingroupshot" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2010/04/bestsarahpalingroupshot.jpg" alt="bestsarahpalingroupshot" width="495" height="329" /></p>
<p>I spent one week on the Tea Party Express&#8217;s three week bus tour across the country.  In each city from Searchlight to Sioux St. Marie to Washington D.C., this great group of patriots and I were received by throngs of loving, passionate Americans who share our concern about the TYRANNY that has hijacked our government.  It&#8217;s amazing how many different creative, original ways that FREEDOM can be expressed.  The signs were hilarious and righteous.  Lots of smiling, singing, and photographs.<span id="more-336854"></span></p>
<p>There were a few protesters on the outskirts of our rallies, but I only saw one up close.  In Albany, NY standing next to a statue of George Washington was an angry black woman holding a sign that said, &#8220;Yes, We Can.&#8221;  She looked very angry.  The media was on her like flies.  They got shots of our Tea Party crowd with her in the foreground.  I was asked to pose next to her for a group shot.  I kept glancing at her face.  It takes a lot of energy to keep a frown that long.  Finally, I asked her, &#8220;Why are you so angry?&#8221;  She whipped her head around,  her eyes on fire with hate, and snarled, &#8220;Don&#8217;t talk to me, Whitey.&#8221;  I walked away slowly, wondering why she was so mad at me.</p>
<p>I suspect she doesn&#8217;t like white people.</p>
<p>I used to think that black people didn&#8217;t like me because of the slavery thing a hundred years ago.  But, I just learned from Lloyd Marcus&#8217; book &#8220;Confessions of a Black Conservative&#8221; that blacks are taught since the day they are born that &#8220;Whitey is keeping them down.&#8221;  No wonder why she hates me.  She doesn&#8217;t know it is a Liberal lie.</p>
<p>In Lloyd Marcus&#8217; book he talks about growing up in the &#8220;projects.&#8221;  He says that his family moved into a brand new building that within two years was filthy and dangerous.  Lloyd says, &#8220;All I kept hearing from the majority of adults was that everything was the &#8216;white man&#8217;s fault.&#8217;  Even at the tender age of nine, I sarcastically thought to myself, &#8216;How can we stop these evil white people from sneaking in here at night, peeing in the stairwell, leaving broken wine bottles on the ground, smashing the light bulbs, and attacking people.&#8217;&#8221;</p>
<p>He explains that the &#8220;liberal cradle-to-grave government dependency programs kill incentive and ultimately hurt people.  Meanwhile, Conservatism is branded as mean and heartless.  What is ultimately heartless is an ideology that enslaves people in a system that rewards sloth and discourages achievement.&#8221;</p>
<p>Lloyd continues to explain that he has &#8220;witnessed the devastating effect of liberalism in his own family.&#8221;  He writes, &#8220;My forty-something drug addicted cousin is a serial &#8216;impregnator&#8217; with several out of wedlock children.  And yet, he enjoys a new townhouse, food stamps, free health care, and methadone all funded by working taxpayers.  In essence, the government is enabling and funding my cousin&#8217;s irresponsible life-style.&#8221;</p>
<p>On the Tea Party Express Bus, there was an NBC reporter filming us for a <em>Dateline</em> Tea Party story.   We were weary and stinky from days on the road.  Richie, the young, handsome reporter asked us to discuss the racism charges brought against the Tea Party movement.  I mumbled that I wouldn&#8217;t waste my breath replying to that accusation.  The Progressives are just worried that the November election is going to be a Conservative Victory.  Racism&#8230; pretty lame if you ask me.  My teenage daughter is on the front of the bus flirting with David, a black teenager:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-336862" title="TeaPartyExpressApril2010010" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2010/04/TeaPartyExpressApril2010010.jpg" alt="TeaPartyExpressApril2010010" width="469" height="427" /></p>
<p>His black father William is sitting near me sleeping.  Reporter Richie keeps bringing up the race thing, for over an hour.  Finally, I explode, &#8220;The President is a Racist!  The &#8220;<em>police acted stupidly</em>&#8221; comment Obama made about the Crowley-Gates affair was the most racist thing I have heard in a long time.  And shame on the President for purposefully stirring up racial conflict!  It popped out of his mouth at the end of a health care speech when he was off Teleprompter!  Oops!  His Jeremiah Wright training leaking out!&#8221;  I immediately realized I&#8217;d given the NBC guy the fodder he was after.   I was caught in a tired moment and I didn&#8217;t even have my make-up on.  Well&#8230; Obama <strong>is</strong> a racist, but I don&#8217;t want to be involved in childish tit-for-tat whining.</p>
<p>I just want my country to be FREE.</p>
<p>When Richie the reporter switched buses, I went back to my meandering on the past days&#8217; events.  After giving short speeches and singing my uke songs in each city, I was getting better at it.  Politics is all new to me, remember.  Boston and D.C. would be the final stops.  In Boston, after I had touched Sarah&#8217;s jacket with my finger, I had gone back to watching her talk to her fans when suddenly Sarah had turned around and our eyes met.  She did a double take and said, &#8220;Oh!  I love you!&#8221;  She hugged me and then she said, &#8220;Thanks for all you&#8217;re doing.  I want <em>your</em> autograph!&#8221;</p>
<p>For the rest of the day I was speechless with a dumb grin on my face&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;Except when I had to give my speech.  I channeled Sarah and it went well:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_HcF154sMg"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/8_HcF154sMg/default.jpg"/></a></p>
<p>You should have heard the crowd!  (They weren&#8217;t miked.) They were awesome.  Wow.  And&#8230;</p>
<p>I met Sarah Palin.</p>

<p>Like millions of other Americans I have been caught up in the Facebook/social networking craze. I believe that Facebook is like a near-death experience except your life passes before your eyes one friend request at a time. I have  been trying to “friend” a lot of people in the news, without much success. There&#8217;s been no acceptance of my friend requests from President Obama, Dede Scozzafava, Jeremiah Wright and a host of others. So in order to reach them with some timely advice I am posting some comments here. If you are on their Facebook friend list maybe you could pass them along. </p>
<p><strong>@ Dede Scozzafava</strong> &#8211; When you try to stand in the middle of the road you get run over. Thanks for showing where you stand when the heat was on. Go stand in the &#8220;has-been&#8221; line behind Arlen Specter.</p>
<p><strong>@ Barack Obama </strong>- Mr. President, if the trip to Dover wasn’t a photo-op or political why take a photographer along?<span id="more-257662"></span></p>
<p><strong>@ John Boehner</strong> &#8211; Nice play backing the person in the NY 23rd who ended up supporting the Democrat.  It’s about values, not party, Mr. Speaker. BTW, let your office staff know I am still waiting for a reply to my two e-mails and phone calls.</p>
<p><strong>@ Newt </strong>- See message to Boehner. I don’t know what your number is, but it is not 2012.</p>
<p><strong>@ Jon Corzine </strong>- Monster.com or Career Builders. Too bad one of the jobs BHO “saved” wasn’t yours.</p>
<p><strong>@ Kevin Jennings</strong> &#8211; If you really what to help the Prez- one word: Quit!</p>
<p><strong>@Larry David</strong> &#8211; Picking on Christians is easy because they are forgiving. It’s not edgy because it has been done to death. If you want to go out on a limb pick on Muslims, you may like the Salman Rushdie lifestyle.</p>
<p><strong>@ <a href="http://www.justicenewsflash.com/2009/11/03/god-button-caused-home-depot-employees-termination_200911032494.html">Trevor Keezer</a></strong> &#8211; You&#8217;re 23, you want to serve your country, enlist. You want to serve Christ, enter a seminary or volunteer at a soup kitchen. You want to work at Home Depot, do as you’re told.</p>
<p><strong>@ Sarah Palin</strong> &#8211; Well done being ahead of the curve in the NY 23rd. Let’s hope folks remember who started this thing in 2012.</p>
<p><strong>@ David Axelrod</strong> &#8211; Pick a date for- Action in Afghanistan, don’t ask, Gitmo, when you are responsible for the economy and when you stop blaming Bush.</p>
<p><strong>@ Fred Thompson</strong> &#8211; You are not the evil Spock, please shave! </p>
<p>Use the comments to add your own Facebook message to the news-maker of your choice.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have always been fascinated and frustrated by the phenomenon in our public dialogue that when we get new information after a “debate” is deemed to be over, that the original dispute is never “reopened.”</p>
<p>For instance, when Barack Obama threw Rev. Jeremiah Wright “under the bus” a month after he was praised lustily by the media for not having done so in his famous “race” speech, the history of that event was never rewritten. Similarly, the dramatic positive impact of the surge in Iraq never came close to altering the media’s premature conclusion that the war there was a “disaster,” and the most recent data on the global temperature drop has done next to nothing to change the notion that the debate of global warming is “over.”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-242174 aligncenter" title="sarah_palin" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/10/sarah_palin.jpg" alt="sarah_palin" width="400" height="271" /></p>
<p>In the past week we have seen two classic examples of this quirk in the unwritten rules of media history.</p>
<p>The Obama/Oprah led flameout for Chicago’s hopes to host the 2016 Olympics certainly fits in this category. Much has already been said about the disastrous nature of this development from the economic and political perspectives. However, not nearly enough has been stated about how this event seems to prove that one of the basic foundations of the argument for Obama’s election was a complete lie.  <span id="more-241538"></span></p>
<p>It was just over a year ago when Obama choose to go to Europe for his grandiose victory lap for having won the Democratic nomination. Hundreds of thousands (allegedly) of enlightened ones flocked to the streets to see and hear the new Messiah promise to bring the now hated United States of George Bush back into the good graces of the “civilized” world.</p>
<p>The message was clear. We elect Obama and the rest of the world will instantly love us again (as if they ever really loved us to begin with). The media hammered this point until even the people who literally couldn’t find Europe on a map (you know, the ones that actually decide elections in this country) understood how vitally important this was.</p>
<p>Well, based on what happened in Copenhagen, how in the world can anyone conclude anything other than that whole concept was just simply made up?</p>
<p>Never before in modern history had a U.S. President needlessly put so much prestige on the line in front of the world community and been so roundly rejected. The fact that Chicago didn’t even get out of the first round eliminates any real ambiguity about what was really happening here and exposed the theory that Obama’s election did anything to elevate our country in the eyes of the world as being completely bogus (keep in mind that all it took for golf to get in 2016 Olympics after a century long absence was for Tiger Woods to appear in front of the IOC via videotape; once again proving that Obama is no Tiger).</p>
<p>And yet, very little has been said that even questions whether we were lied to about this audacious promise. Instead, some have laughably tried to blame the Bush hangover for the embarrassment even though Chicago somehow made it successfully to the final stage while the evil one was still President.</p>
<p>This episode is reminiscent of the Cambridge police flap where Obama’s words and action totally destroyed the obviously phony narrative that our new President was a different kind of black leader and was going to be “post-racial.” The evidence could not be more overwhelming that we were lied to about this as well, and yet (due mostly to rampant media malpractice and conservative wimpiness) in the consciousness of the average American, that slam dunk case is still largely unproven</p>
<p>The other incident which followed this same pattern involved the revelation that David Letterman has apparently had numerous affairs with members of his staff.</p>
<p>This one is particularly personal for me because I somehow <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jziegler/2009/06/19/inside-the-lettermanpalin-flap/">found myself at the forefront</a> of the Fire David Letterman “movement” after his inappropriate “jokes” about Sarah Palin and her daughter. At the time, it seemed pretty clear to me that Letterman had “issues” and that the basis of his obsession with Palin and her family was obviously sexual. After all, Letterman had continuously referenced Palin’s attractiveness in a creepy sort of way and had even invited her on his show while urging her husband Todd to stay home.</p>
<p>But when I went on Fox News Channel to discuss this issue and referenced my theory, I was <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6wAmSXJNgNo&amp;feature=player_embedded">almost mocked by anchorwoman Megyn Kelly</a>.</p>
<p>Now, based on these most recent disclosures, how can you conclude anything other than I was probably right? Heck, even Letterman himself seemed to back up this conclusion when he seemingly bizarrely (though in the context of my supposition perfectly understandable) “apologized” to Sarah Palin in the middle of begging for understanding from his fans and wife for his indiscretions.</p>
<p>This is on top of the numerous previous statements and “jokes” that Letterman had made about Palin just before and after his original “apology” was so eagerly accepted by the news media which cast great doubt about the sincerity of his efforts to make amends.</p>
<p>But has there ever been any reevaluation of what was really going on in the Letterman/Palin flap which, at the time, actually was outrageously a net gain for Dave? No. Instead much of the media focus has been on how Letterman is a “victim” of an extortion attempt as well as how strongly his fans appear to be backing him on this.</p>
<p>I realize that what is about to happen or what may occur in the future is far more exciting and ratings friendly than what has already occurred in even our very recent  past, but are our collective attention spans and memories really all so short that we can’t at least correct the record on these significant incidents?</p>
<p>Our side needs to understand the incredible importance of the narrative and when the facts allow us to win these skirmishes (even after they have seemingly been previously lost), we need to take advantage of that. Fortunately, based on recent history we will get plenty of similar opportunities in the future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Contrary to the most recent descriptions of who I am because of my beliefs, activities, and actions &#8211; I am not a racist, homophobe, Muslim hating, ignorant, gun loving, tea-bagging, swastika carrying, redneck, mobster &#8211; I am an American&#8230; An educated, God-fearing, compassionate, and peaceful woman who loves her country and is not embarrassed to say that I am genuinely PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN! That is not an arrogant statement. In fact, I feel humbled and extremely blessed to have been born and raised in this great land of freedom. </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/obama_contempt.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-207242 aligncenter" title="obama_contempt" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/obama_contempt.jpg" alt="" width="350" height="210" /></a></p>
<p>So why is it that if I didn&#8217;t vote for Barack Obama to be in the White House, it&#8217;s because I must be a racist?  Are you kidding me?  What about &#8211; I didn&#8217;t agree with his policy of hope and change or his stance on abortion?  What if I don&#8217;t support health care reform and want government to be less involved in telling me where and when to spend my hard earned money?  How about maybe I&#8217;m a bit concerned that he has ties to an unrepentant terrorist, grew up with associations and beliefs in Socialism and Marxism or sat in a church for 20 years under the leadership of someone who hates white people and America?  No, the reason I might not have voted for him had nothing to do with race&#8230; <span id="more-206626"></span></p>
<p>This past year I have watched this &#8220;darling of the media&#8221; time and time again receive, what I call, a &#8220;GET OUT OF JAIL FREE&#8221; card. It boggles my mind to see how many &#8220;questionable&#8221; situations, affiliations, experiences, and policies go &#8220;unchecked&#8221; because of that flashy smile and that professional teleprompter delivery. Oh, he is a good orator for sure, but speaking well does not mean leadership&#8230; looking the part does not mean you are equipped for the job.  I mean, I could dress up like a surgeon and walk into a hospital, but that doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m qualified to operate on anyone.</p>
<p>By the way, did you know Obama would not even qualify to be his own Secret Service because of his affiliation with terrorists, and several other reasons? &#8211; some are listed below. He would NOT qualify for the Secret Service, the very people who put their life on the line for him, but he was elected to be the President of the United States and Commander In Chief of our Military? Unbelievable!! Why does this man receive a &#8220;GET OUT OF JAIL FREE&#8221; card every time? The media is fully capable of investigating any and all of the &#8220;questionable&#8221; attributes, yet they continue to give him a free pass. For instance: </p>
<ol>
<li>Affiliation with known unrepentant terrorist &#8211; Ayers</li>
<li>Member of Rev. Wright&#8217;s congregation for 20 years &#8211; A man who spouts hate for America and is a racist</li>
<li>Associations with Acorn &#8211; questionable voter registration fraud and scandal    </li>

</ol>
<p>The presidency is not a popularity contest. It is not about who looks better on the cover of a magazine, makes an appearance on a famous late night talk show or who can be a slick orator and charm the audience. The presidency is the highest elected office attainable in the United States of America&#8230; It is the office of the Leader of the Free World&#8230; It is to be revered, respected, and upheld to the highest standards.  Our president should be a person of honor, a fearless leader of the people, a passionate and rational person. Our president should be a reflection of our Nation, of We The People, of our Freedom, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness&#8230;.</p>
<p>It is dangerous to &#8220;pal&#8221; around with our enemies in an effort to look good to the rest of the world. An enemy will say anything to manipulate and get their way. Can you trust their word? Should you trust their word?  Not until they have proven that they are no longer our enemies&#8230; doesn&#8217;t matter if they are friendly with the man who is the leader of our country&#8230; are they indeed still against what our country stands for?  Are they a threat to our freedom? Have they decided to turn from their vow of steal, kill, annihilate, and destroy &#8211; simply because we are Americans? If not, then they are still an enemy of the country and should not be trusted, bowed to, or placated by ANY American &#8211; elected or not. </p>
<p>The United States of America is a treasured land of freedom, but I am greatly concerned about where our country is headed.  Government control over the auto industry, banking industry, mortgage industry&#8230; and now the threat of health care&#8230;  is not the answer.  And if that&#8217;s not enough, now the White House is asking people to &#8220;snitch&#8221; on those that oppose Obama&#8217;s health care plan by notifying <a href="mailto:flag@whitehouse.gov">flag@whitehouse.gov</a>. Is this Nazi Germany?!!  Don&#8217;t we still have freedom of speech?!! When did our representatives stop working FOR us and start appeasing this man and his obvious agenda of government control? The bills that get passed without even being read&#8230; it&#8217;s unlawful, unpatriotic, and frankly, outrageous! </p>
<p>I am proud and grateful to be an American, so don&#8217;t ask me to apologize for that. It is my birthright, my blessing, my honor, privilege, and my God-given gift.  It is not &#8220;un-American&#8221; to ask questions, disagree or protest policies being forced upon us. So I ask the media &#8211; Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, Independent, whatever your chosen side of politics may be&#8230; don&#8217;t be so quick to hand out the &#8220;Get Out Of Jail Free&#8221; card &#8211; investigate, answer the questions raised, and report the news rather than trying to influence public opinion&#8230; you just might be overlooking something very BIG. </p>
<p>Obama promised transparency, but all I&#8217;ve seen is secrecy. If there is nothing to hide&#8230; then why are those records still being hidden? Concerned Americans want to know and deserve to know&#8230;  the truth.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For those of you who don&#8217;t know, I&#8217;m from Cambridge. Born and raised there. I grew up in the <a href="http://cache.boston.com/resize/bonzai-fba/Globe_Photo/2009/06/10/1244688304_3665/539w.jpg">Jefferson Park</a> housing projects a stone&#8217;s throw from Harvard. Never a Dull Moment in JP I can tell you! Even <a href="http://www.wickedlocal.com/cambridge/homepage/x488845098/Jefferson-Park-residents-Don-t-blame-us-for-North-Cambridge-violence">today</a>. Knew lots of CPD cops like Officer Crowley too, but never in a good way. Like when a fellow punk projects friend of mine drove a stolen car through a fence and into the deep end of the local MDC <a href="http://thealewife.typepad.com/weblog/images/2007/07/13/pool1.jpg">kiddie pool</a>. They wanted us real bad that night! I was guilty as sin, too. All wet, in fact. Rode shotgun the whole way. Front row seat. Yee-ha! Island Kingdom, eat your heart out.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/agb_gates_crowley_090718_mn.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-200162 aligncenter" title="agb_gates_crowley_090718_mn" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/agb_gates_crowley_090718_mn.jpg" alt="" width="320" height="240" /></a></p>
<p>My whole childhood was like that. A lot of crazy stuff, a lot of running from police. Was a local sport, like <a href="http://www.monh.org/Portals/0/boyrunningopt.jpg">train-hopping</a>. But that&#8217;s all just the gritty side of Cambridge. And even though I&#8217;m a rank Righty today, I still love Harvard University all the way, the <a href="http://www.harvardsquare.com/">Square</a> especially. It&#8217;s the <a href="http://www.wickedlocal.com/cambridge/news/lifestyle/columnists/x415877439/The-Right-View-Cambridge-and-Harvard-The-crossroads-of-the-world">Crossroads of the World</a>. I was a total Harvard Square rat growing up. Harvard is the Bright Light of Olde Cantabrigia. Harvard was also very active in the community back then, and most likely still is today. Harvard hosted field trips to the campus from schools all over Cambridge. The <a href="http://www.mcz.harvard.edu/">Agassiz Museum</a> was my favorite. Lots of dead bugs and dinosaur bones. That was Heaven to me. Still is.<span id="more-196366"></span></p>
<p>So there it is. Cambridge Dark and Light. Of course, as a Harvard Square rat I ran into my fair share of elitist Harvard eggheads, both students and faculty, whose utter contempt for a lowlife Cambridge projects kid like myself could be felt with Hiroshima-like intensity. But given my many experiences on campus, and as a waif wayfarer on Harvard&#8217;s Challenge program, I believe most people at Harvard, both faculty and students, could not be more honorable or pure of heart and intent. I&#8217;m not going to smash that whole crate because of a few bad eggheads. Harvard has its troublemakers, too. Lots! Just ask former Harvard president <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Summers">Larry Summers</a>. He was run out on a rail by <a href="http://www.slate.com/id/2112570/">militant feminists</a>.</p>
<p>Fact is, I love Cambridge. Warts and all. Part of my heart and soul, and one of the most egalitarian cities on earth. So when news broke about Dr. Gates&#8217; outrageous charges of racism, I immediately and most publicly called him a <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/276259">bold-faced liar</a>. But not just in defense of my hometown or CPD. I called it based on personal experience. And I called it right on the money, did I not? See, some years back my brother and I, both drunk, were in a confrontation of my idiot drunken brother&#8217;s making with five Cambridge cops when I yelled &#8220;Your Mama!&#8221; at a black cop. We were arrested for disorderly conduct, cuffed, thrown into the paddy wagon and hauled off to the same jail as Dr. Skippy.</p>
<p>That incident took place not five blocks from Dr. Gates&#8217; house. In short, I had experienced the exact same arrest for the exact same charge in the exact same neighborhood by the exact same PD. Who not actually there could have seen how the whole thing went down better? From yelling &#8220;Your Mama!&#8221; to cuffing to paddy wagon ride to booking in the same jail? Yet Dr. Gates&#8217; hoax cry of racism at whom we now know is one of the state&#8217;s top racial profiling experts, President Obama&#8217;s <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/276607">Man Show suds-rinsing</a> of Dr. Gates&#8217; crime by sitting down white victim and black victimizer on an equal moral plane in sickening equivocating fashion, is not even the real monster here.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/cambridge-mass.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-200030   aligncenter" title="cambridge-mass" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/08/cambridge-mass.jpg" alt="" width="355" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>The real monster would have been if Al Sharpton brought his Traveling Racial Arsonist Show to town, which he was <a href="http://www.bostonherald.com/news/regional/view.bg?articleid=1186039">ready to do</a>. Big Al lives for incidents like this to spark or fuel smoldering racially-tinged incidents into Towering Inferno proportions. Think about this. Had Officer Crowley been just some regular Officer Joe on the Beat, and not been able to provide the damning refutations of Dr. Gates&#8217; hoax cry of racism, Cambridge, the city of my birth that I love warts and all, might at this very moment be going up in flames, both racial and literal, for Big Al&#8217;s race-mongering fun and profit. Just like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_Heights_riot">Crown Heights</a> and <a href="http://www.nationalcenter.org/P21NVKingSharpton701.html">Freddy&#8217;s Fashion Mart</a>. Nine dead in those two alone. And it would have all gone down over yet another foul race-baiting hoax, just like <a href="http://eightiesclub.tripod.com/id315.htm">Tawana Brawley</a> and <a href="http://news.duke.edu/lacrosseincident/">Duke</a>.</p>
<p>In my city? In my birthplace? He&#8217;ll have to kill me first! Over my dead body! Not a <a href="http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/images/2007/03/26/yitzchak_bitton_son_crown_heights_r.jpg">rare outcome</a> when Big Al brings his racial gas cans and lighters to town. How Big Al a bullet did Cambridge just dodge? I&#8217;ll bet Big Al is breathing a sigh of relief as he watches Dr. Skippy burn in a fire of his own making, yet is even now scouring the American landscape for the Next Big Whitey Thing to torch to the skies. That&#8217;s who he is. A <a href="http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=2411">black David Duke</a>, as Jeff Jacoby of the Boston Globe so aptly put it. What happens to the next racially-targeted innocent white police officer, his city and his peaceful neighborhoods, when said officer is NOT a racial profiling expert who teaches the subject?</p>
<p><a href="http://media.newtimes.com/1944125.47.jpg">Got an idea</a>. And THAT is the monstrous 800-pound gorilla that is occupying and trashing the Obama Racial Harmony Room, to wit the <a href="http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&amp;pageId=102531">all-too-profitable</a> and most <a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/jtsimpson/2009/04/15/why-reparations-have-already-been-paid-with-interest/">politically powerful</a> black Lefty racial grievance-mongering <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/253940">Hate Whitey</a> cottage industry in America. It&#8217;s got to go. The law, and the law alone, from the cop on the beat to the US Supreme Court, should deal with all crimes and legal matters of race, not the racists themselves. Kind of defeats the whole purpose, doesn&#8217;t it? They&#8217;re like the black radical version of the Klan, showing up with ropes and torches at even a whiff of white-on-black injustice, real or imagined, wherever it happens in America. Duke Lacrosse <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2006_Duke_University_lacrosse_case">ring any bells</a>?</p>
<p>In fact, black Lefty racial grievance-mongering is a <a href="http://article.nationalreview.com/?q=Y2YzMjczODJiMmYzNTk5MDk3OWQ3MjBjN2E0ODQ5NzE=">HUGE</a> <a href="http://www.nationalactionnetworklv.org/mission.htm">business</a> in America today. With a black President in a 72% white-majority nation, how sad is that? In this Obama Age of Racial Harmony, in particular? Tell me truly. What legal resources and avenues of redress do any and all minority Americans NOT have? The federal and state EEOCs, the ACLU, the Southern Poverty Law Center, and a million other NGOs and government agencies exist, and even live, to redress real racial grievances to the fullest measure and extent of the law. As they should. For ALL races of Americans!</p>
<p>Since news on Dr. Gates first broke, I have been neck-deep in it. It has been my mission in life since to bring him down, and as many of his fellow career race-baiters and grievance-mongers who jumped all over this race-hoax abomination from the word go. Anderson Cooper&#8217;s AC360 show called me about my first damning oped on Dr. Gates. The Cambridge Chronicle is reprinting it Thursday. My reports are all on file at my <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/user/210829/news">article folder</a> at <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/">Digital Journal</a>, including one manic <a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/276395">thirty-hour stretch</a> when news was breaking insanely fast and furious.</p>
<p>Lots more deep background on Cambridge, and some very unsavory stuff on Dr. Gates et al. But this has all been a very unsavory episode, hasn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>That monster is growing, people. Worst of all, with President Obama&#8217;s direct aiding an abetting by giving <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2009/08/02/the-new-black-panther-partys-teachable-moments-on-race/">Get-Out-Of-Terrorizing-White-Voters-Free</a> cards to the three Black Panther thugs whom career DOJ lawyers wanted to skin alive, and had default convictions in hand to do just that. Why did Obama do it? Aren&#8217;t white voters just as protected by the law as blacks in the Jim Crow South? Or are we witnessing a regression of the law in favor of black radicals? When you throw in Obama&#8217;s equivocation of Dr. Gates&#8217; crime of yelling racial &#8220;Fire!&#8221; in a crowded country, it doesn&#8217;t look good.</p>
<p>A lot more background in my DJ reports, but here&#8217;s two related news items you may find interesting.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/weblogs/watercooler/2009/jul/24/audio-sharpton-niece-wants-repercussions-cambridge/">AL SHARPTON&#8217;S NIECE WANTS REPERCUSSIONS FOR SNITCH WHO CALLED 911</a></p>
<p>That would be Ms. Lucia Whalen, the woman who placed the 911 call, whom Brittany Sharpton <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IoMxdc3ePDU">wants revenge</a> served cold on. Ms. Whalen has been insanely <a href="http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/2009/07/lucia_whalen_woman_who_called.html">persecuted</a> ever since that call, even though she never mentioned race until asked by CPD. Great. Rile up some whack job black racists to terrorize an elderly woman for doing a public service, even for Dr. Gates has it been a real break-in like the one he recently suffered. Like Uncle, Like Niece.</p>
<p>Here are some delightful insights from Facebook on NBBP poll watcher thug-in-chief Jerry Jackson, who will be right back terrorizing, er, I mean watching the polls in Philly:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/weblogs/watercooler/2009/jul/30/disturbing-content-new-black-panthers-myspace-page/">DISTURBING CONTENT ON NBBP JERRY JACKSON&#8217;S FACE BOOK PAGE</a></p>
<p>&#8216;Killin&#8217; Crakkkas&#8217; is very high on Mr. Jackson&#8217;s To-Do List. He also has a very welcoming sign at his home in Philadelphia: &#8220;<a href="http://www.fireandreamitchell.com/2009/08/02/no-whites-allowed-colored-only/">COLORED ONLY: NO WHITES ALLOWED</a>&#8221;</p>
<p>I have to tell you, people. I may not be black. But with all that&#8217;s going on lately, I&#8217;m starting to get an idea of how it felt to be a black man in the Jim Crow South. Tell me why I shouldn&#8217;t feel that way. Racial injustice knows no color, people. And Hate is as Equal Opportunity as it gets. Stop The H8!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You know, people, it&#8217;s a damn shame. I remember when great comedians like Richard Pryor and Lenny Bruce held nothing sacred. I know I don&#8217;t. And so many comedians, especially late-nighters, are really missing the boat with President Obama. There&#8217;s a wealth of material just waiting to be tapped, and I&#8217;m really not looking forward to four more years of lame Bush and Palin jokes. Are you?</p>
<p><a href="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/06/clinton-obama-joke.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-163342" src="http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/06/clinton-obama-joke-300x236.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="236" /></a></p>
<p>All it takes is one person to break the ice. Example. Twenty years ago, my brother won tickets to a Journey concert in Worcester, Massachusetts on the radio. We rode a packed WBCN Party Bus out of Boston, but everyone was kind of uptight and kept to themselves, like there were cops in the crowd. So I took a risk and lit up a big fattie anyway. Within minutes, it was like a Cheech and Chong movie. You couldn&#8217;t see out the windows. Everyone was laughing, joking, hacking and toking.<span id="more-160342"></span></p>
<p>So, at the risk of stinking up the joint again, but with the possible reward of jovial comradery and a few laughs, looks like I&#8217;ll have to be the first one to light up. The only real question is, will this be the torching that finally gets me arrested?</p>
<p>So be it. Great reward often involves great risk. To be fair, Jimmy Kimmel went to a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LqxEhC9EEg">black barbershop</a> to ask black people what subjects for humor were taboo or not. Very funny stuff. As for me, I&#8217;m gonna live a little more dangerously, like Pryor and Bruce. Here goes my comedy career!</p>
<p>-</p>
<p>&#8220;Did you hear President Obama had to cancel his press conference today? Got his halo stuck in a TelePrompTer!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;President Obama said he&#8217;s unlike all those other presidents we&#8217;ve ever had, and he&#8217;s right. What other president in American history could fit in at both an NAACP dinner and a KKK rally?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Did you hear Newsweek editor Evan Thomas said Obama was like God? In related news, the American Medical Association recommended that journalists covering the President should see their doctors for regular prostrate exams.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The Obamas held their first open-to-the-public Easter Egg Hunt today. Thirty thousand guests hid their wallets around the White House grounds for Timothy Geithner to find!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;In related news, the Obama Administration seized millions of dollars from the accounts of online poker players. Strangely enough, they were all corporate executives who canceled junkets to Vegas on the President&#8217;s recommendation. Just goes to show, the house always wins!&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;First Lady Michelle Obama was seen walking around London today wearing a stuffed orange snake around her waist. In related news, former GM Chairman Rick Wagoner was spotted walking around Detroit wearing his ass for a hat.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Jimmy Carter was honored by the Palestinians today for his support in helping them toward independence. In this Fourth of July spirit, Hamas revelers set off fireworks on Israel.&#8221; (I know that wasn&#8217;t about Obama. Just mixing it up, like a good sit-down comedian should. Besides, one Carter&#8217;s as good as another when it comes to comedy!)</p>
<p>&#8220;Well, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright is back in the news again. Said &#8216;them Jews&#8217; won&#8217;t let him in to see Obama. Seems the Good Reverend is going to unusual lengths to get an audience with his former parishioner. He was last seen roosting like a chicken on the White House fence.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Former Obama associate William Ayers is back in the news. Seems he was barred from entering Canada over a forty-year old felony conviction. Fortunately, he was able to catch a ride back with Janet Napolitano, who was just barred from Canada for felony idiocy.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;As you all know, the President promised to find new homes for the Chinese Uighur detainees at Gitmo. Four are now in Bermuda, and another thirteen will be soon be sent the island paradise of Palau. In related news, the Taliban and Al Qaeda reported a recent upsurge in recruits.&#8221;</p>

<p>I tried to come up with Biden jokes. I really did. But the guy&#8217;s a Perfect Storm of Comedy. It&#8217;s like trying to make jokes about Curly Howard. How can you top perfection?</p>
<p>So there it is. The ice is broken, and possibly my clean criminal record as well. Oh well. Life&#8217;s a laugh and death&#8217;s a joke, it&#8217;s true. By the way, if any of you have any great joke ideas, or know any great Obama jokes, please post them in the comments section. It&#8217;s not like anyone in Hollywood or the media is going to steal them and cash in on them. Have fun!</p>
