Sounds like the POTUS made a racist remark and is inflaming racial dislike of entertainers of color.

One thing good to be said about BO, politics aside, is that the man is all about bootstraps. Him and Michelle both. Kayne (or however you spell it), I couldn't possibly care less, is an arrogant SOB who thought it was ok to ruin some 19 years olds' big moment, just becuse he could. BO gets that because you know that as the multi-racial, food stamp recipient son  of an unwed mother, he probably got more than his fair share of crap from bullies at a rich kid's school in Hawaii. I'm not defending the man, just pointing out that for Mr. West, when you are a black guy geting publically dissed by the first African American President for being a bully, you're street cred just dropped to zero.

??  Bootstraps are all about hard work, integrity, honor and self-reliance.  BHO has never heard of those!

If thats true Haz, and again politics aside, how did he get through the Punahow (sic) School, Columbia and Harvard Law (valedictorian) without a rich daddy like W.? The one thing I give W, and Obama credit for is this. Affirmative action (in BO's case) or Legacy status (affirmative action for rich white people) in W.s case, may get you in the door, but they won't get you a degree. They both did it on their own once they got in the door. You can hate on BO, the left can hate on W, but they both took advantage of the opportunities given them and I doubt either would appreciate someone stealing someone else's well earned  15 minutes.

THAT is something we would like to know!  WHO paid?  But since he won't unseal any of his records and has spent over 1 million dollars in blocking law suits about this, we may never know!

Do you know what they call a fellow who graduates 499 out of 500 from med school?  They call him Doctor.  Odamna may have graduated, but how well did he do?  No one knows.  I know lots of folks with verious degrees and not all of them are particularly smart.  Some just managed to hang around long enough.

You know its weird. I actually, was fairly enthused about BO a year ago, now, I'm hardly his number one fan and wish that either the Libertarians or the GOp had given me someone I could vote for without vomiting. Yet, here I am, defending BO who I like less and less by the day. Why? Geek solidarity I guess, but the man was editor of the Harvard Law Revue and that doesn't happen by accident and all the affirmative action in world won't get you that job. Just like being POTUS, you get it, for good or ill, on your merits.

According to Sonya Sotomayor it worked for her.

Again, not defending BO, but when the moonbat crazy PETA folks attack you for killing a freaking fly, what president, of either party wouldn't be a bit gun shy. Saying West was a jackass should be about like saying the sky is blue. Yet with our media, Limbauagh and FOX or Olberman and CNN, everything you say will be dissected.

Good job, Quaker.......You just keep defending the most dangerous man in the history of our nation. You make me sick!

You do realizethat the lefties said the same about W, right? I think you you need to chill out, drink a beer and get the fact that "the most dangerous man in the history of our nation" is getting nowhere fast (that whacky checks and balances thing again) ::). He shot his wad on extending W's stimulus package. Health care is going no where, gun control and immigration reform are dead, relax, stay vigilant and active, but get off the grassy knoll. Honestly Eric, if we survived Cheney, we can survive BO. A right wing arrogant statist versus a left wing arrogant statist. You may see a difference, I don't.

That may be but unlike the left WE have plenty of evidence of his anti American COMMUNIST philosophy to work with.
And you should lay off Cheney, who do you think was directing the effort that kept America safe for the last 8 years.
And don't even START on the stupid crap about civil rights, because they only apply to citizens and those Naturalized "IN GOOD FAITH", which Muslim terrorists aren't.

Out of respect for the naval service (In The Navy!) I will offer no comment on the willingness of a sailor to provide a squirtgun for scrotum lubrication and conducivity purposes.  I will neither ask nor tell, merely note that the ARMY did not include such training and that we were never issused "mark II Scrotum soakers" (those were fierce!). There will be no mention of rum, sodomy or the lash. ;D ;D ;D
This drive by navy bashing was brought to you by FQ13, who is, as always an "army of one" (whatever the frak that means). Sorry Timothy, but it was just too easy. ;D

Well, you Army guys were always easy!  Especially you Rot-See boys.....there is a good reason the Navy gets the best toys!  We have larger brain cavities and the understanding that when you have the ability to kill the enemy from 1 to 1000 miles away, there is no need for small arms or hand to hand combat.....

Besides, we got all the girls. ;D

p.s.  Never set foot on a boat my entire enlistment! ;)

You can nuance it all you want to, Brotha, and rationalize it in your mind as academic debate..... but what you have been saying about Obama in this thread and others is a disgrace. You need to get your head out of your ass the class room and back into the real world ASAP....... And arent you supposed to be some kind of Libertarian or something ??? ::)

 I used to think Libertarians believed in everybody WORKING, to PAY FOR their own stuff, Supported FREE MARKET economies, and resisted excessive TAXATION, and GOVT MEDDLING.

But after listening to FQ's struggling to defend BO I guess they just want to be able to smoke dope and f-ck sheep.
