Takes one to know one!

But seriously, this very well could've been a ploy by BO to try and distance himself from KW's behavior. In other words, a lot of white conservatives are put off by KW's behavior, and with BO calling him names, they find themselves agreeing with BO on this issue. Call me paranoid, cynical, etc, but I am willing to bet that BO wanted this to leak.

I know this sounds far fetched on the surface but there is really kind of group think that goes on with the media and the people. There has been a steady stream of reports in the last few days of black celebs bahaving badly. At the same time we have a black President in distress with 50% of the country so you have that underlying subliminal message going on here. So I agree they are probably stategizing realizing the "group think" that takes place and were wise to intentionally leak this to distance himself from these folks subliminally.

If Obama was white I doubt we would have heard a peep out of the White House on this.

Why should Obama have to distance himself from Kanye West? What do they have in common other than race?

A love of popular culture?







(p.s. I am not defending Matt on this one ;) Just answering your question. But in all honestly Matt is making a commentary on public perception, not on his own perception, so insinuating racism does not make Matt racist, it makes the public racist ;))

So we go from "you liar!" to "greatest video of all time!" to "jackass"?

The apology chain's about to connect.

Here's a video with the audio from an interview where Obama calls Kanye West a jackass:

YouTube - Obama calls kanye west a jackass! full audio (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e06CeQNIa3c)

The whole Kanye West incident is a conspiracy by the US government to get Barack Obama's socialist agenda of reparations for black people passed. You see, by calling a popular black man in Kanye West a jackass and praising the beautiful, white Taylor Swift, he puts a dampens the voices of reason that are calling him out on his racist agenda. After all, we all know he has a deep seated hatred for white people, right?

That looks like an underhand vieled attack on Joe Wilson from Obama, quite clever.

Conspiracy? No.

Kanye West wanted attention. He got it.

I don't think Matt is racist and I understand the perception that exists among some. But I don't think it's Obama's job to have to make a comment every time a famous black person does something stupid.

Why are people so sensitive, people are entitled to their opinions.
Personally, I welcome the chaotic factor Kanye seems to give everything.
George Bush doesn't care about black people, anyone? It was so random, it still makes me LOL. He's talking then right before he's cut off, "GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE."

YouTube - Bush Doesnt Care About Black People (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIUzLpO1kxI)
Though I agree it's BS. We're supposedly the greatest nation on Earth and we can't remedy a situation like that?

Bread = welfare.
Circuses = media.

Enough said.
