Exposing the Hypocrisy of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama on the Don Imus Firing
Hillary Clinton said this about Don Imus:
“Don Imus’ comments about them were nothing more than small-minded bigotry and coarse sexism. They showed a disregard for basic decency and were disrespectful and degrading to African-Americans and women everywhere.”
And she is right about that. I have no problem with her coming out against Don Imus, however she recently received an $800,000 donation from a fundraiser hosted by Timbaland at his mansion.
Here are some of his lyrics, I think you will agree they are literary genius that just rolls off the tongue:
We can make it hot
Cook it in the pot
11:15 feed the hoe while it’s hot
When I say suck it, it don’t mean blow it
5:15 get loot cause you broke it
Girl it aint a blunt, so dont smoke it
Better if you grab it with your hand then you choke it
I feel like a pimp with a different pimp game, with a different pimp name
With a little pimp fame
I’m loaded with cash, loaded with class, loaded with a lot of things
Even got a gat loaded for that ass
Nigga Your Time Is Up, I Aint Come To Kid You
I Knew You niggas Was Dumb, But How Dumb Is You
I’m Like Nicholas Cage Yeye Its The Ghost Rider
P89 Ye I Let My Toast Slide, Costa Rica To Brazil
I Got My Hoes In The Lamb, why Your Bitch Bald Headed
Like Britney Spears, I’m In The Projects Gettin Dope and Piff Money
I could keep going, those lyrics are only from three songs. Does anybody else see the hypocrisy of this? Condemning one man for bigoted, anti-woman remarks while at the same time taking a rather large campaign donation from another?
I though Hillary was a feminist? Don’t these lyrics fly in the face of feminism?
Yes, they do.
Barack Obama, who has appeared on Imus’ show, called for Imus’ firing and also said,”but I would also say that there’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group.”
I don’t have a problem with that statement either. But Obama has had a meeting with Ludacris to discuss, of all things, AIDS awareness, and empowering the youth.
While this isn’t as indiscriminate as Hillary taking campaign donations from Timbaland, it may show a lack of judgement discussing AIDS awareness and empowering youth with the person who has graced us with these beautiful poetic musings:
You doin ho activities
With ho tendencies
Hos are your friends, hoes are your enemies
With ho energy to do whacha do
Blew whacha blew
Screw whacha screw
Cant turn a ho into a housewife
Hos dont act right
Theres hos on a mission, an hoes on a crackpipe
She said she had a nigga who was only there for rent (there for rent)
And wouldn’t shake her booty for a red cent (red cent)
She said she never fucked 3 niggas at a time (at a time)
Til Lil Fate started fuckin with her mind (with her mind)
She said she couldn’t see how women turn tricks (turn tricks)
And couldn’t picture tryna suck a nigga dick (suck a dick)
I’m sorry for the language in this post, I usually restrain from this language no matter how I feel when I am posting, but I had to use these lyrics to illustrate my point.
While candidates berate and call for the firing if one individual, they are willing to look the other way in cetain circumstances, and even accept money from them.
Do they think Americans aren’t paying attention and won’t notice this? Or do they just feel that American won’t care? I don’t know, but I have a feeling Americans won’t care.
