Why is Tyra date-less? Surely, she can rent a date? And if she did, surely ya’ll wouldn’t make assumptions. But then, ya’ll would. Bad assumption on my part . Opps.

ok; it was a beautiful thing to see a cross section of all walks of life, gett’n together and having a good ol time. and the prez all laided back just coolin out. giving a shout-out to michael steele. “what— up” m. steele. hell the prez and the first lady are young folk they ought to be more get togethers like this. heck its your house. but now…. just when the goat thought he was out of the game, they [ them republicans ] pull him right back in. i see keith olberman has been holding it down by himself but here comes the goat. now mr. dick cheney while you want to release papers on torture. why stop there. how about them papers of them secret “energy meetings” you were having PRE 9-11 w/ them energy companies you know them papers. what would the papers tell? how you were going to run up the price of gas? cause what i remember is, that during the clinton presidency we [US} didn't have hardly no enemines a few but president clinton was extremely popular around the globe. but as soon as cheney and bush 2 took office. 10 months and you have airplanes slamming into the twin towers. whats up w/ that tricky dick no.2. now fox news wants to bring you out of your jackson hole. to playa hate on prez obama. now pre 9-11 you and your admin, had all your ducks in a row truth b told. so lets not talk about "THE SURGE" OK because you and your co-horts had a set time to do your dirt in iraq. and this war had to drag on for awhile . like selling iraq's oil at sky high prices and getting your cut through the back door money disapearing and "everything". man cheney/ bush all the dirt you folks pulled. why did you need all that money for the war ANYWAY ? WHEN THE IRAQIE ARMY AND ALL THE MILITARY THEY HAD. FOLDED LIKE A THRIFT STORE CARD TABLE. and here was bush demanding billions. it seemed like every other week. i could go on and on but history and GOD will judge you cheney/bush. and you still got condi rice defending you crooks. i just hope you gave her some of the skim [loot] off the top. so cheney be careful what you say, cause it might turn around on you. oh yea and whoopi g. you wander why folks like myself “rage on the rich”……. in due time iam gon check you. cause there was a time you didn’t have eye water to cry with. cause w the republicans. ain’t sh— trickled down to me or my parents. while they were living. and the plantation masters and folks of that ilk . AND EVEN IN THE 21ST CENTURY massur wants to holler socialism. sorry cl, its not a rant when you are tell’n the truth.

Why do people feel it necessary to clown A.Keyes, when Swizz Beats was the one that messed up? A woman can throw herself at a man in the most seductive ways, that doesn’t mean he’s going to do anything, if anything wouldn’t he check the woman for coming on to him. People want to blame AKeyes for that, when it’s not her fault. Swizz is a grown man, who made that decision. And noone knows the truth just want is reported.

I’m sorry, but I respect M. Obama for who she is , but a fashion plate, I can’t agree with, not if you look at the Queen of Jordan and FLady of France. Michelle dresses too conservative and mommyish for me. But, hey if Pres.Obama loves it, that’s all that counts.

Hmmmmmmm

since BeYawnSay got to sing she has been hands-off in the movement for change.

Such an opportunist, she could care less about world issues.

And don’t even think about the tour as an excuse.

but then again the event was for literate celebs, that excludes BeYawnSay afterall.

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

What a loss race of people. Only comments are about the way some one looked. Not about the ignorant unprofessional comments Wanda Sykes ranted about. I just had a aunt die of liver and kidney failure last week. You never wish that type of stuff on anybody. 911 was not and is not a joke. Joking about being the 20th terrorist was not even funny uneducated Wanda. How dare Obama laugh at that.

Just ignorant, no class. Black people please wake up and realize that life is not all about some bodies weave, or clothes. Listen to what these people are doing and what they are saying before it is to late for this country!

No disrespect to anyone on this post. I and many others just don’t want to be seen as just clowns.

Everyone looks nice……….as far as “Roc” is concern, he’s a sellout. How in the hell ur wife parents didn’t want her to marry u because ur half black? and this bish is cuban. Doesn’t help that she’s ugly as hell and little girl look just like her. Wondering if that was a black woman or hawaiian woman, would he had pursued her?

Sometime you just have to forget that its a recession. Sometime you have to forget people are losing jobs in there homes. Sometime you just have to get on your knees in pray that while the president in First Lady in there goons are partying like rock stars that just maybe maybe. They will have a after party in you will be invited so that they can pass out goverment cheese in food stamps. lmao
