A QUESTION OF LUDICRIS JUDGEMENT...

Obama is on record as as stating that Ludacris is one of his favourite rappers and has him on heavy rotation on his iPod. He has said he likes Ludacris’ ‘artistry’. The two met one time and discussed family values and being a good role model. So, Ludicris has released a new song demonstrating his "artistry" ......

"Hillary hated on you, so that bitch is irrelevant," say the lyrics

. "McCain don't belong in ANY chair unless he's paralyzed Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped."

The song also celebrates Obama's rise. "The first black president is destined and it's meant to be," go the lyrics, calling on voters to "paint the White House black.

Naturally the Chosen One has been forced to come out and  condemn this ludicrous song but the fact is that here is a man, Ludacris, who Obama has presented as a role model and his judgement has proven seriously flawed. Not for the first time. Remember The Rev Jeremiah Wright - the race-hater who was Obama's spiritual guru?

Too many examples of too little judgement.

Personally, I'm outraged! I can't even put my anger into words.
Interestingly enough that a Ludicrous act is performed by a person who has chosen the name as Ludicris. That alone says a great deal, as well as the man who has chosen him to be his favorite rapper.
Duh, I'm sure! What a crock!

WTF! The black music scene is hitting rock-bottom of this is what typifies it. No more John Coltrane or Miles Davis - 'Ludicris is the man, and Obama is who we want for President. Vote for Obama because he is black.' It's pretty sad, really.

Guess who makes most of the money off the rappers? WHITE MUSIC EXECS. I hate rap music that cannot get its point across without cursing and downing women. But, Obama cannot apologize for EVERYTHING somebody does. The double standard here is ridiculous. There is never any outrage when Obama is called a monkey by the Rush Limbaughs or the shellacking he takes on a daily basis. Frankly, I am sick of all of this mess especially when the Republicans are the despicable ones here.

I hate this topic David.

I could not care less what any musician has to say or what a public figure thinks of said asshole no-talent musical person.

None of it will sway my vote.

**and stop putting his picture up - can we have a generic donkey please?!

Hey yurdelite, do you think Bush resembles a chimp? Did you think he resembled a chimp before Obama came on the scene?
