POLITICS: BARACK MUSIC / OBAMA T-SHIRT TROUBLE / US EMPIRE NEAR COLLAPSE

Wednesday, September 24, 2008

The presidential campaign of Barack Obama has sparked musical interest for a while, with “Yes We Can” and “We Are the Ones“. Now the campaign is getting an official soundtrack.

Yes We Can: Voices of a Grassroots Movement features Kanye West, John Legend, Jill Scott and Lionel Richie, among others. Proceeds from the CD ($24.99 for a digital download, $30 for a physical product) will help fund Obama’s campaign until Nov. 4, Election Day, according to Hidden Beach Recordings, which created the CD.

OBAMA T-SHIRT TROUBLE

Daxx Dalton, an 11-year-old fifth grader at Aurora Frontier School in Colorado, says his first amendment rights are being violated after he was suspended for wearing a homemade t-shirt that readers “Obama is a terrorist’s best friend”.

The boy’s father, Dann, says the school made a major mistake by suspending his son for wearing the shirt: “It’s the public school system. Let’s be honest, it’s full of liberal loons.”

The school told Daxx that he had the choice of either changing his shirt, turning it inside out or being suspended. He chose suspension.

He said, “They’re taking away my right of freedom of speech. If I have the right to wear this shirt I’m going to use it. And if the only way to use it is get suspended, then I’m going to get suspended.” Paperwork from the school says he wasn’t suspended for wearing the shirt, but for willful disobedience and defiance.

The boy’s father says he intends to pursue a lawsuit against the district.

US EMPIRE NEAR COLLAPSE

While addressing the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared the American empire is near collapse and should end its military involvement in other countries.

“American empire in the world is reaching the end of its road, and its next rulers must limit their interference to their own borders,” Ahmadinejad said.

He added terrorism is spreading quickly in Afghanistan while “the occupiers” are still in Iraq nearly six years after Saddam Hussein was ousted from power.

Ahmadinejad also accused the U.S. of starting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to win votes in elections and blamed a “few bullying powers” for trying to undermine Iran’s nuclear program. Ahmadinejad accused “a small but deceitful number of people called Zionists … (of) dominating an important portion of the financial and monetary centers as well as the political decision-making centers of some European countries and the U.S.”

In an interview with the LA Times prior to his speech, Ahmadinejad said, “The U.S. government has made a series of mistakes in the past few decades. The imposition on the U.S. economy of the years of heavy military engagement and involvement around the world … the war in Iraq, for example. These are heavy costs imposed on the U.S. economy. The world economy can no longer tolerate the budgetary deficit and the financial pressures occurring from markets here in the United States, and by the U.S. government.”

Can you please educate us all on who William Ayers is and just how his “association” with Obama makes Obama a terrorist?

Jeez!!!!

I’ve got a few friends who are strippers, but that doesn’t make me one.

Judas,

I’ll be more than happy to explain

1) What does the word “ignorant” mean and how does it apply?
Ignorant means a total lack of knowledge or what is being discussed and you clearly perpetuate ignorance
2) What does the word “insular” mean and how does it apply? Insular means inward looking, narrow-minded. You regurgitate what people in your circle tell as oppose to seeking the truth and you lean on your own misunderstanding.
3) What does the word “prejudiced” mean and how does it apply? Prejudice mean unfairness - you other Uncle Toms and racist white people unfairly discredit Obama and his supporters.
4) What does the word “bigoted” mean and how does it apply? Means extremist, racist, radical, and brother if they look up any of the aforementioned words they may have a picture of you there.

You keep on going back to that question: Obama is not a magician; he is not the Messiah and we as his supporters are not looking to him to come in a wave a wand and fix all the problem facing America. The significance of this election is bigger than you and I it is bigger than Obama and it is bigger than America. Look, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step and if we are to reach our goal of black empowerment, electing a black president is that single step. But no, Uncle Toms like you do not want to do that. They rather elect a white man and call him the “first black president” than to actually elect one. That’s fucked up

That boys wicked red neck daddy did that on purpose because he wanted to start a fight. I bet he wants to sue for money. No wait, I bet he’s going to fake integrity and say its for the principle. His provoking actions prove where his principles lie. And I like how McCain is trying to take credit for the parties to come together today when the Obama camp called him this morning telling him that both parties need to issue a joint statement about the financial crisis and then he gave a statement trying to take credit like he initiated it. They are such sneaky credit hoarders.

Mixed Chick

So, if Sean Hannity calls your mother a “lesbian” and your father and “butt pirate,” you would go around labeling them as that too?
I am sorry if I am come off harsh but you cannot let the media dictate your thoughts and feelings. I frankly do not care who you vote, because that’s what democracy is about, but you cannot vote of ignorance. Now you seem like a smart girl but there is something you should know about the media. The media distort things. They will make the villain look like the victim and victim like the villain. For example, look at Michelle Obama, someone who is class personified; someone with never ending ambition a drive; a loving mother and wife. The media paint her like a bitter black woman who hates America. Now that same media takes Cindy McCain, a privileged white woman who was born with the proverbial silver spoon in her mouth. She became a drug addict, a thief. The media paint her as an all American girl.
Now you tell me, as smart and intelligent as you are you cannot see through this buffoonery?

@ DaisyDukes

You know sis, the scriptures tell us that a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways, lol. This is why I asked you to define those words because everything that you have to say is based on emotion, never fact. Never anything quantifiable. It’s like if someone were to find your favorite food repulsive and you felt the need to spaz out on that person persistently because of that, lol. That is how consistently ludicrous your nonsense is. You have your right to it; but please don’t act like you’re dropping knowledge because the only thing you’re dropping, like most blacks, is the ball. Never have I said that I want a “white man” in office. I could care less who presides over America because it is a figurehead position anyway, meant to give the simple an entity to look at. Any sensible individual knows that racial “empowerment” starts with self-knowledge and community, not a goddamn phony “election”.

Ignorance means to have no knowledge of what one espouses. You have no knowledge of Obama and you have no knowledge of how societies are run. You’re jumping on his bandwagon because you’re a desperate negro. What speaks against my ignorance is your obsession with my commentary. Look at how overly emotional you are. You basically called me a “racist Uncle Tom”, lmao, which is an oxymoron. You’re empty rhetoric is indicative of a confused individual who’s frustrated with his inability to understand something other than what he’s told he should believe. You don’t know my “circle” nor could you hold your own in a debate with me on any subject that I chose to debate with you on. The only thing that you could do is what you’ve consistently done, piggyback off of the silly sisters on this site and throw tantrums. My stance is based off of the scriptures. Yours seems to be based off of a love of this world. We are unequally yoked. Move on.

Let me say this too, black people don’t want to make a journey of 1,000 miles, lol. They want the white man to give them a hug, especially these black women. They want to sit next to the white man in corporate America and do their best impersonation of him and make themselves feel like they “made it”. These black men want to bow down to the black woman and the damn white man. Give me a damn break. If Obama is indicative of the first step in a 1,000 mile trek, then what the hell have black people been doing the last 140 years?

dukesman2000

Wednesday, September 24, 2008 /

A racist Uncle Tom is not an oxymoron…more redundancy than anything else. An Uncle Tom, though self hating, are against black people and so are racist whites.

You could not debate me in public on any issue, because your technique for rebutting an arguement is to trivialize the situation. “If someone doesn’t like your food, you’ll spaz out….”

Really?

So, Mixed Chick do you believe that Ronald Reagan is a terrorist since it’s his administration that armed Osama Bin Laden, you know the mastermind of 9/11. He armed Bin Laden when we were fighting against the Soviets. Bin Laden, thanks to Reagan gave Bin Laden the means and the training to attack us. Sean Hannity only deals with blacks who are considered nonthreatening, or “good negroes who think my way.” You know what’s funny, it’s going to be one of those people you continually say yes to who will point out the non-white in you because that’s what white people do.

Judah, what are you talking about in your post 87. You need to elaborate because it is almost incoherent what you are talking about? Who is bowing to whom? What? Just explain so I can understand.

@S

What are you talking about??

I quote

The intentions behind it is to bring their “messiah” back (allah), which in their koran it states that the only way he will return is if the world is in destruction. Which explains why they have become terrorists.

Being a muslim I see this as an insult. First of all how can you say: ”which explains why they have become terrorists.”
Who do you mean with THEY??.. Muslims???

And second, have you read the Koran? Because I have, and it does not say anything about Allah returning to this world.
What it does say is that JESUS will return to this world. (If you do not believe me you can google it)

Don’t say something that isn’t correct. The American media is already good at doing that.

While living in the states for a year I heard so many lies. And the sad thing is that alot of Americans believe those lies. They believe what media tells them.
There is such a big difference between American media and media in Europe.. (Media in the rest of world!)

I seriously feel sorry for the people that live in America. Your goverment is messed up! I hope Obama can make a change. Because Ahmadinejad is right. I could not have said it better myself.

Bush should have ben worried about his country instead of being ”worried” about other countries, because America is at it’s lowest point right now.

Point blank..if McCain comes into office (Palin in line who knows NOTHING AT ALL) the United States is finished. We already have nuclear threats by Iran going on and believe me…THEY ARE NOT PLAYING WITH US. We also are stepping on thin ice with North Korea.

SHAME ON YOU REPUBLICAN VOTERS….for allowing the Bush’s to come in shake up the freedom and liberty that we are suppose to have.

Are we really still a free county? We don’t even have our allies anymore. Nobody wants to have ANYTHING to do with the USA. *shaking my head*

To All in reference to attire consisting of your support for a canidate when going to vote. The rumor that has been vastly circulating is not true. You can wear anything that you like upon voting, however you can not solicit nor openly discuss who you are voting for, nor picket in the area in which voting is taking place. Please contact your local Voting Registration Office. Some states do vary with rules, however it is not against the law to wear clothing of such nor can they turn you away for wearing the attire.

McCain went in a screwed up the bailout negotiations. First of all, I don’t believe there should be any negotiations. The banks and financial institutions stole and it caught up to them. Therefore, they should simply go out of business. However, a deal was close to being struck and he went in hoping to appear to save the day but ended up stalling the whole process. What a tool!!! Now he has to go crawling to Mississippi with his tail between his legs and get that ass tapped by Obama. Go Obeezy!!!

@DUKESMAN2000:
I don’t agree with anything that “Mixed Chick” has stated because of obivous reasons. (I am neither for Obama nor McCian for reasons I think EVERYONE here should look up and read about instead of “opening up their mouths to get feed lies by Obama, McCain, their associates and the government.) But she is right about one thing though. William Ayers is an adimitted terrorist. Google him. It’s not the only the media, it’s a proven fact.

RESPONSE TO POSTS:

To my knowledge the “real” terrorists are our own government and most Americans are not even smart or bold enough to realize that fact. We love to repeat B.S. as fact with out doing our research into the validity of what we are repeating, because we are too scared of realizing the truth of what other countries are warning us about. They know we are getting lied to BIG time. From the Pharamedical Industries to the Food Industry to the Federal & State Government. As far as I am conserned that Iranian President is more right than anyone typing on this website will ever know. SMH.

Obama is labelled probably a “terrorist” because he’s more willing to actually sit down and have DIALOGUE with these Middle East leaders. Why do ya think Islamic fundamentalism is so worse than ever? Bush’s insistence on “remaining until getting the job done”. I’ve heard that long enough to realise what his adminstration has done, destablized an already sensitive region of the world.

And Michelle Obama is FAR FROM the bitter black woman certain sections of the media make her out to be (@Mixedchick). Don’t buy into the kneejerk, reactionary, unprofessional self serving right wing crap known as Fox News. I’m not a fan of reactionary liberals either, but there are conservatives who do the exact same thing.

@GreatestLoveOfAll: I agree about Michelle Obama. I agree with her comments. Why should I be proud of a country that killed and slaved Native Americans, killed and slaved the American Aboriginal tribes (African) [Africans were found here too for those whom didn't know. They are still around today.], and then brought African as slaves over here and when slavery ended the government used black slaves and The Ku Klux Klan to keep blacks oppressed. Plus they still won’t give the American Aboriginal Africans and Asiatic Native Americans. Am I soppose to be proud of THAT??? Now blacks finally feel pride to be an American and they still cut blacks down.

Don’t people realize this is all this is a game??? Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John McCain are ALL CFR members. They have the same goals, no matter how the media twists it. Lol @ all the people feeding into the illusion. Look all these politicans up before you support them. I also heard Goerge H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton were fishing buddies and good-friends during “their ‘heated’ debate. Hasn’t anyone ever heard that the Electoral College REALLY decides whom is president and the popular vote doesn’t really matter much. Like I stated before from the world’s governments to the intelligence agencies to the pharamedical industries to food industry to the United Nations it’s all a game and just about MONEY!!!
P.S.: George W. Bush signed “The North American Union Act” and he and the U.S. Government has already planned to go into Iran, with or without Barack Obama. So all the nonsense about “change” is just feeding it to the American public who wants to hear it.

Don’t say it’s not legal to wear your shirt dealing with your candidate of choice. It is just not recommended that you do so. TECHNICALLY you have the right to do so, it just would not be smart. Now once you get outside, you can wear them all you want without getting looked at crazy. Please don’t lie and say it is illegal though.
