Remember, I have been speaking at you and too you the entire time. And, as always in each post you go into a catastrophic coma.

I know many graduates from Texas Southern University…and I never thought of you in that light.

I see you on the corner. Not once have I cursed you, called you out of your name…and it says a lot about your character as a man. Are you man?

Naw…you still standing on the corner! LOL.

if you are living in NYC -you are a disgrace to the title of your name…even that isn’t original fool.just as your thoughts aren’t. only emotion and opinion yes that makes you a fool,and a simple one. …i did state that i lived in houston texas at one point,and your cavalier attempt at insulting some of those brothers from 3rd ward at the corner store came up a bit short,even those guys could chew up and spit out some common bullshitter like yourself. yes,my job allows me the time to dissect little shitty “writers” at will and at my leisure. stop bullying?? yuck, get some balls you pansy little wimp….i wouldn’t expect such softness from someone with a self induced title as “N.Y.S.T.O.M.”—>dummy. people who talk shit,yet hide behind their lazy online alias are cowards…true shit for brains.

you are as i called her on post number one typical/standard negro mentality. you are right,i can’t get enough…idiots like you make simple wednesday afternoons worthwhile. you should probably get off of “opinion sites” and go start learning something. i and a few others here have given you more info than your pea brain can possibly absorb. save it,and fact check at your convenience hoodrat. yes i do have a few minutes out of my day everyday to engage with your type.it’s not a problem,it’s actually kinda fun. again,what do you even have to engage me about? we would not speak in real life so why bother here? we obviously have absolutely nothing in common besides the fact that we are both on this website. if you want to discuss facts,then lets keep it about that. when it comes to your emotions and how something made you feel. i personally don’t give two shits,that’s your own issue…deal with it. yes,because someone has the balls to call your lame president out,don’t get all worked up.sometimes the truth hurts. we get it. as we say down south,”you’d wash obamas dirty drawers if he asked you”…we all aren’t as obsessed and captivated by this man as the majority of you are. i hardly blame you,he is probably the first black leader you have “known”. it’s got to be rough. lupe doesn’t give a shit about you,and neither does obama. let that marinate.

I am going to recommend that you READ more often, do less posting, and take care of your community. Third Ward/Sugarland/Pearland/The Bottom/The Heights need you to start washing windows. Let me know when you got your rags…Cause your talk is real CHEAP –TOO CHEAP. lol.

the reason no one has addressed it other than to call the writer a fool for writing her house negro/slave comment is because Lupe never said that,nor did he INSINUATE it as she put it.

this was a terrible little bit of writing on behalf of kymberly keeton….this video was over 5mn long and the segment on obama may have lasted 30 seconds if that.

“Lupe has not stood at the front line of any movement in hip-hop; name one, I will check myself –if you are right…”- again i suggest maybe listening to the interview yourself. i think it’s lazy of you to take this ladies word for it without doing your own research.

Freedom of speech is a right enumerated in the First Amendment no question. Unfortunately, that also gives people the right to publicly attack a person’s character with little grounds for doing so . . . but we have lawsuits for that (defamation, slander, etc.). So there is a limitation on one’s right to speak freely.

“To speak about another Black man in this way, makes me believe that Fiasco has a lot of boy antics up his sleeve, and an identity crisis complex. I have to call him a boy, because obviously he does not know his—history. He went there, and I can too.”

What the staff writer wrote is utterly unreasonable . . . because you don’t like what someone says you attack the person saying it? Where are the lawyers at? Debate the merits (what the person said), why waste time attacking the person. What basis does the staff writer have for saying Lupe is a boy or that he suffers from an identity crisis?

But I see what we have here. It’s not about determining or debating the truth of what Lupe said, it’s about protecting President Obama. Anything negative said about President Obama and we’ll hang, draw, and quarter the person who said it. That’s nonsensical.

Staff writer Kym mentioned nothing of Obama’s foreign policy. Lupe didn’t even mention what foreign policies he was referring to for that matter. All we have here is a lot of dancing around the substance on both Lupe’s and the staff writer’s part. See my “dissertation” below for more substance. Don’t we need to understand Lupe’s reasoning for why he called President Obama a terrorist? What is his explanation? Why would he say such a thing?

Lupe’s comment about Black voters being house negros was dumb. However, I’m not sure he even made the comment. Staff write Kym writes:

“The article went on to INSINUATE that Fiasco believes if you vote as an African-American then you are a house Negro.”

Keyword here is insinuate, which means that the words never really came out of his mouth but could perhaps be inferred (based on the writer’s inference).

In light of the history of this country, and the world for that matter, and the process by which American democracy/politics works, I understand Lupe’s comments but without more explanation from him, his words were over the top. Perhaps he did it to spark controversy in an effort to sell more records, which means he himself is dumbing it down, bad pun intended. But I think he has a basis (perhaps a not well reasoned one) for claiming that Obama is the biggest terrorist. But we’re kind of left guessing that basis since he didn’t fully articulate the reasoning behind his claim. Without more (from him), his rhetoric was terrorist like in and of itself, it was an attack for little or no reason.

I suppose it gets to a point though that if an American citizen is so anti-American (and maybe for good reason) then one should do like W.E.B. DuBois and leave the country. I’ve thought about it.

I for one believe that Lupe took jabs at President Obama…and the writer of this article came right back and put back in his face [the rapper’s]. Now many hate when a journalist, or a writer, puts it out there –at face value. I think she did a superb job calling out Lupe.

I found no problem with her being truthful about the situation at hand, which was the word TERRORIST that she attacked by bringing it right back to the rapper’s own demeanor… Lupe has not stood at the front line of any movement in hip-hop; name one, I will check myself –if you are right.

Regarding the slave comment that she made, it all reverted back to this young man’s comments about voters being house slaves. Now why no one has addressed this behooves me. But, it is cool. There is a reason why she is the writer and we are the readers–responding.

And once again, I addressed the issue at hand…not the rapper’s antics about the government. That is his own personal opinion that he is entitled to have.

Makes no sense, words and rhetoric do nothing without action, especially if they are unfounded.

I think the staff writer went a little over board with the Lupe bashing. I like Lupe. I love hip hop. I don’t necessarily agree with everything Lupe says but I do agree when he talks about history. Let’s control the anger, hate, and bitterness ya’ll and think with reasoned minds.

The Obama Administration is merely helping (keyword helping) to enforce a no fly zone over Libya. Ghadafi’s own people rose up against him (or so we are made to believe), in the wake of protests in Egypt. Ghadafi responded by slaughtering his own people. Now is that fair? Yet the Obama Administration still took no action, seeing that we’re already involved in Iraq and Afghanistan, mind you that both conflicts were created by Bush, both wars which we are exiting as we speak (supposedly). The Obama Administration didn’t take action until after the United Nations passed a resolution to protect Libyan civilians. This is not a U.S. Libya war, this is a rebel uprising (which has the support of the U.N. and the Obama Administration). Is Ghadafi’s rule legitimate in the first place? Is he not a military dictator that rules by force? Apparently the people of Libya are done with it all. Was the world to stand by while Ghadafi murdered his own people to suppress a rebellion? It’s not just the U.S. in Libya but rather many nations (U.N., NATO, etc.).

Someone cite what the Obama Administration (the so called terrorist) has done that has been so atrocious as to spawn more terrorists?

Do you think terrorists wouldn’t be terrorists if Obama wasn’t in office? Do you think Al Qaeda would stop being a supposed terrorist organization if Mitt Romney took office? Or perhaps if you or I took office? Well if terrorists are going to be terrorists regardless then what should we do about it? Someone please cite an Obama foreign policy that is so oppressive to another country that it incites more terrorist acts (besides the support for Israel and even then Obama has called for borders pre-1967 which expands the Palestinian State).

Every U.S. Congressman/woman/representative/senator will probably be a corporate sock puppet to some degree but the question is to what degree? Is Obama less of a corporate puppet than Bush, absolutely. So it’s back to the question of picking the lesser of two evils (remember Bush v. Kerry in 2004). America, with the passive support of its government, has a long history of terrorist type acts against smaller less wealthy nations, see Open Veins Of Latin America by Eduardo Galeano. People should know that European nations along with the U.S. have exploited poorer countries for their own capitalistic gains, it’s well documented. Perhaps it’s not a country thing but more a business thing and the big businesses, in the 1900’s especially, were headquarted in the U.S. (and still are). Multinational corporations sought the support of the U.S. government to help them gain access to foreign lands/markets (complete with coup d’etats and puppet governments). I cite the European imperialist movement in Africa, the Middle East, and Asia in the late 1800’s early 1900’s; slavery in the U.S. (it took a Civil War to ban it); and centuries of continued U.S./European influence over poorer Latin America countries (with support of the IMF and World Bank). You must read Open Veins.

Anyway, Obama is a small peice of history. I think underneath he’s a fair and reasonable guy but he’s in the thick of it all. The head of the U.S. government yes but still pressured by checks and balances (Congress and the Supreme Court), he’s still under media pressure, pressure by big business. In regard to business, he’s done a decent job of not being too influenced. Do you think the insurance companies (big business) wanted Obamacare? Nope, but he pushed for it anyway so that people that can’t afford medical insurance could hopefully some day have insurance. Call it socialism if you want.

I would say I’m a field negro all day but it sounds kind of stupid arguing about what type of slave I am. I’m radical but reasonable. I could type more but I’ve already wasted too much time at work. Peace ya’ll.

preach brotha

It’s shameful that it took a Black man to be president of the first US regime to launch a full scale savage attack against an African nation. And just to show you how twisted this is, the “rebels” that Obama is supporting are reppin’ Al Qaeda while LYNCHING Black men in Libyan streets! If one truly knows this, they would accept that Lupe’s comments are the bitter truth.
