‘Cuz Blacks Are Too Fuckin’ Broke To Be Republican
At last count, Barack Obama has publicly repudiated Jeremiah Wright, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, Idi Amin, Robert Mugabe, Wayne Williams, Michael Jackson, and the entire starting five of the 1966 Texas Western basketball team. But is that enough? Aw hellz naw, says Evan Gahr at Human Events. Sure, there’s a horrible war, and the economy is in the toilet, and no one can afford health care, and gas rationing and food riots are just around the corner, but what’s foremost in Evan’s mind? In order to even be considered for leadership of the free world, Obama must denounce all rappers:
Although the media has finally exposed Barack Obama’s ties to the unhinged pastor his support from rappers who propagate equally pernicious nonsense has gone almost entirely unnoticed.
Quick, someone bust a 12-bar containing the phrase ‘propagate equally pernicious nonsense’. I’m going to compose a letter to Mr. Gahr explaining the difference between not noticing something and not caring about it. Meanwhile, back to the article:
Rappers are gaga over Obama. The superstar Jay-Z, who raps about “b——,” “hoes” and “n—–,“ even urged voters to support Obama in a robo-call for the March 4 Ohio primary and caucus.
I think it’s sorta curious that “bitch” and “nigga” get blanked out, but “ho” gets left intact. Not that this says anything at all about Mr. Gahr’s psychological makeup, goodness no.
The equally foul-mouthed rapper Will.I.am, whose hit songs include “I love my B—-,” has hyped Obama in two widely-viewed videos posted on YouTube.
Do you know why they’re widely viewed, Evan? Because people like them. All hail the free market, right buddy?
The rappers have good reason to praise Obama. He has at times been an apologist for their “music.”
In an incredibly moving show of restraint, Gahr waits until the fourth paragraph to refer to rap as ‘music’ (in scare-quote marks), and even more astonishingly, does not say “they should call it CRAP music!” at all. Clearly we are dealing with a rare cultural mind here.
His complicity with rappers dates back to at least 2006.
That’s right, America: Barack Obama — the man who dares suggest he is fit to lead our nation! — has in fact been an accomplice, if not an outright co-conspirator, to multiple counts of aiding and abetting hip-hop, going as far back as two years! It’s a wonder he’s not on death row, let alone serving as a United States Senator.
Obama even recorded a voice over for a new album out this June from rapper Q-tip. Will it contain lyrics like these sonnets from another Q-tip song? “Close the door, ‘ight let a n—- rock. Cause we ‘bout to eat real s—, not s— slop.” Who are these members of Obama’s amen corner? Many are the industry’s leading lights, who have become rich and famous thanks to the willingness of liberals like Obama to ignore or excuse their glorification of sexism, drugs and violence. Without this kind of collaboration they would just be unemployed thugs instead of millionaires.
Yeah, when I think of thuggish, violent crackhead street criminals, my mind instantly turns to Q-Tip and Will.I.Am.
Obama thus far has equivocated on rappers. He has criticized their language, but adamantly refused to denounce the whole sordid genre as the unique cultural problem that it is.
This is pretty awesome: rap isn’t just devil jungle music created by vicious whitey-hating murderers, it is a unique cultural problem, unprecedented in the history of human endeavor, that should be uniformly denounced by everyone, especially if they happen to be colored.
“I haven’t just singled out rappers,” Obama told Al Sharpton’s National Action Network conference last year, according to the New York Observer. “I’ve said I’ve heard those words [used by rappers] around the kitchen table in some homes. I hear them in the barber shop. I hear them on the basketball court. All of us have been complicit in diminishing ourselves.”
As an aside here, can you imagine the right’s reaction if Obama discussed the way white people talk when they’re alone with other white people, talking about blacks or women, and said that they have been complicit in diminishing the white race?
Obama here relies on the pro-forma defense of rap music. Yes, apologists say, it’s racist and sexist but it only reflects the racism and sexism of society. Oh, really? Where else but rap do folks talk so openly and regularly about b——, n—— and hoes? What other industry makes millions of dollars from those words? Obama says he’s heard this kind of language on the basketball court. Which one? Not any NBA game. Players who curse during games are suspended and fined.
I’m not even sure how to start with this one. Gahr is suggesting, here, that only in rap songs do young black males curse, because in NBA games, you can get fined for it! And where else would blacks play basketball except in the NBA? Nowhere that Evan Gahr has ever heard of!
Where else but rap do you hear words like these from Obama supporter Jay-Z in his song “99 Problems?”
Now once upon a time not long ago
A n—- like myself had to strong arm a hoe
This is not a hoe in the sense of having a p—
But a p—- having no God Damn sense
Going for the Wingnut Trifecta of Stupid, Ignorant and Misguided, Gahr here quotes, as evidence of hip-hop’s misogyny, a line from Jay-Z’s “99 Problems” that is actually about men. Well done, thou good and faithful servant.
Have any rappers donated to his campaign? Will he return the money?
It takes courage to demand the return of entirely theoretical money. But that’s just how we roll at Human Events, dog.
UPDATE: Thanks to alert reader/ashamed mother Mary Ruppert, we can now report that Brent “Walter Peck” Bozell has jumped on the “Barack Obama must publicly denounce all rappers” bandwagon. He has also brought us this vital piece of information:
Jay-Z also tells critics to kiss his whole (rectum).

The wingnuts have a simple goal: to force Barack Obama to renounce the very crime of existence committed by every single colored person on planet Earth.
That’s all they want. And until that happens, every single crime any black, mixed race, mulatto, high yella or ethnic person has perceived to have perpetrated against God-Fearing White Folk will be hung around his neck so he can be strung up by it from a nearby lynchin’ tree.
He’s gonna have to work overtime on that, I’m sure.

I just had to comment on this bit of idiocy from Ghar:
Except that it was liberals like Tipper Gore who called for things like warning labels on CDs with explicit content. And when they did, wingnuts like Ghar cried censorship. Must be nice to be able to invent arbitrary Catch-22s to snare liberals with at every turn.

If Obama wins and wins well (and my guess is IF he wins it won’t be narrow), I honestly wonder how wingnuts like this will cope. I really try to imagine how they’ll react and my mind can’t generate a plausible scenario because there’s only so much stupid I can simulate.

And Will.I.Am - well, heh, I mean ….. how much do we really have to say about a man whose known associate records a song glorifying the idea of bombing the London Bridge, which as we all know is now located in Arizona - Domestic Terrorism!
Not to mention Kriss Kross, and their bombing threats.

So I’m hanging with the Racist In-Laws(TM) a few months ago. They love- LOVE- this passive aggressive “we’re just commenting on black culture”/”it’s all racism against whites” bullcrap and make it essentially half of every dinner conversation. They’re clever enough to never cross into “I just hate black people,” rather, it’s “I hate people who don’t have jobs/credit,” “I hate people who take the bus,” “I hate people who don’t understand hard work,” “I hate people who don’t keep good lawns around here,” “I hate people who congregate in their front yards,” etc….but the framing makes it obvious.
Anyway, father-in-law has a bit too many to drink. We’re watching football. Falcons make a typically boneheaded play, guy starts flapping his arms, and says: “You know what our problem is? We’ve got too many ******* on the team!” Mother-in-law nods in semi-approval.
In short- You can’t hide yourselves, wingnuts. We know *exactly* what you mean with this. And sooner or later you’ll completely slip up. Glenn Reynolds has done a thorough job scrubbing out the damn Instapunk spot, but that’s certainly not the last of it.

The fact is, Gary, that you will see a black man’s face smiling down at you from every federal building in the land. In schools when you lisp the pledge of allegience, in the courthouse when the probation officer finally catches you, and in the post office when you mail your fines. Every man in the military will salute him, every person in every room in the land will rise to their feet out of humble respect for the black man who is their commander in chief, president, and First Person of the nation.
And every other black man in the country will say, that can be my kid. That can be me. And they’ll look out with pride and self-respect at the country, and finally begin to take their rightful place in the world.

I’m sure he’d say the same thing to the shareholders of the various record labels that distribute this scourge to the ears of lily white America.
However, I think we need to demand that Obama denounce Nat “King” Cole, whose silky tenor stylings caused many a 1950’s white lady’s private parts to pre-heat. Surely, Mr. Cole was a threat surpassed only by Communism, grizzly bears and sassy children.

It started with Rhythm and Blues. But it didn’t start with Rhythm and Blues. It started with Be-Bop. But it didn’t start with Be-Bop. It started with Jazz. But it didn’t start with Jazz. It started with Ragtime. But it didn’t actually start with Ragtime. It started with Abstract Expressionism. Except it didn’t really start with Abstract Expressionism so much as evolve from Abstract Painting. Which, of course, started with Cubism. Except it didn’t really start with Cubism. It started with Post-Impressionism. Except it didn’t really start with Post-Impressionism. It started with Impressionism and the Fauves.

And it’s the same, to an extent, with Hillary. For a woman to be president she has to prove that she’s “risen above” anything feminine. But oops, don’t go too far or you’re a castrating bitch.

Oh, you silly, silly man, those musicians are “real Americans” the rap music is only 3/5ths American.
In a thread generally full of Win, I vote Socraticsilence best of all!
Of course there is no point in asking McCain to “denounce, repudiate, and reject” anything whatsoever, because DR&Ring is the Base State of the bastard tribe generally short-handed as Scots-Irish — my people! And when respectable historians trace our Vial(tm) Musical Heritage, they find that the substance-abuse-infidelity-and-random-violence-encouraging genre of “Country Music” is based on the equally socially-irresponsible rootstock of Appalachian Ballards, which grew from the sordid muck of Celtic Folk Music and Urban Penny Dreadfuls, horrific descendents of the barbaric yawps and thuggish chest-thumpings spawned when the cattle-thieving tribes on the westernmost fringes of Europe indulged in their never-ending Gang Feuds with their equally anti-social northern “Viking” (def: ‘bloodthirsty’) neighbors. Try listening to that ‘Beuwulf” song sometimes, but please our talivangelical God not where sensitive young minds might be affected: It’s all murder, slaughter, drunkenness, ethnic insults, more slaughter, exceedingly rude Yo Mama “jokes”, capped off with extra murder and a general celebration of ethnic cleansing.

Okay, let’s do it. Let’s sound the bugle of liberty. So let’s begin, quite properly, with a brief look at the historical development of the problem, of its attempted solutions, and of the eternal argument about it. For a variety of reasons, some strategic, some ideological, some attitudinal, and all of them wrong, surly bludgers depressurize the frail vessel of human hopes. Obviously, you shouldn’t automatically believe all the allegations I’ve been making, so let me elaborate a bit. G speaks like a true defender of the status quo — a status quo, we should not forget, that enables him to elevate his metanarratives to prominence as epistemological principles.
Some people think I’m exaggerating when I say that G’s shell games are a cancer that gnaws away at the national psyche. But I’m not exaggerating; if anything, I’m understating the situation. In this land which has befriended humorless kleptomaniacs, G has conspired, plotted, undermined, prostituted, and corrupted, and — hiding to this hour behind the braver screen of snotty roustabouts — dares to contrive and scheme the death of every principle that has protected him. Consider the issue of sniffish, snippy Stalinism. Everyone agrees that I’m not actually demanding revenge, but there are still some hate-filled politicasters out there who doubt that he has lost what little credibility he once had. To them I say: Not only does he influence the attitudes of dominant culture towards any environment or activity that is predominantly postmodernist, but he then commands his dupes, “Go, and do thou likewise.” There can be no doubt that he truly believes that superstition is no less credible than proven scientific principles. It is just such depraved megalomania, effete, nugatory egoism, and intellectual aberrancy that stirs G to twist my words six ways for Sunday.
This is a lesson for those with eyes to see. It is a lesson not so much about G’s dangerous behavior but about the way that if you look back over some of my older letters, you’ll see that I predicted that G would make the pot of extremism overboil and scald the whole world. And, as I predicted, he did. But you know, that was not a difficult prediction to make. Anyone who has bothered to learn even a little about G could have made the same prediction. G’s harangues are not just about isolationism but also about metagrobolism. That is why, come what may, we must review the basic issues at the root of the debate.

The fact is, if the poor died, we would have a much better country. So why do we keep them alive with our tax dollars, to commit crimes, ?

When is Obama going to denounce Robert Johnson? The man went to the crossroads to make a pact with The Debbil!
These boys is not white! These boys is not white! Hell, they ain’t even old timey! And I have it on good authority that their guitar player sold his soul to the Devil!
This band of miscreants, this very evening, interfered with a lynch mob in the performance of its duty. Now, I belong to a certain secret society…I don’t believe I have to name it. And those boys desecrated a burning cross!
Now, is you is, or is you ain’t, my constituency?

My whole is really aching today…..I think I’d better cut back on the number of brambles that I include in my diet (We all need fiber but maybe I’ve taken it too far?).

J Sidney McShizzle, 1st Visit to Hobo Jungle outside Tuscon, 2009:
So the concept is this, basically: The whole black nation has to be put together as a black army and we’re going to walk on this nation. We’re going to walk on this racist power structure. And we’re going to say to the whole damn government, ´´Stick ‘em up, motherfucker. This is a hold-up! We come for what’s ours!”

Evan completely misses the fact that will.i.am also did a song (and video!) called Secret Formula for Dexter’s Laboratory on Cartoon Network. It was full of… Well, actually, it’s completely innocuous, in the lyric department. It’s aimed at 12-year-olds, after all.
Hmm… I demand that this guy apologize for being stupid while named Evan. He’s besmirching all the cool Evans!
