New BFFs, and More Under the Bus

My, my - funny how things happen. You would have to be living on the moon to not hear about ALL of the people Obama is considering for his Patsy, uh, I mean Vice President. All kinds of names have been thrown out from Chuck Hagel to Joe Biden.

The current major leak (but really you are all supposed to know about it - shhhhh!) has Tim Kaine, Governor of VA, as a likely candidate. Never heard of him? Yeah, well, we lived in VA when Mark Warner was governor, and he was GREAT.

Kaine was his Lt. Governor, so when Warner’s terms was up (VA permits ONE six year term - that’s it), Kaine rode in on his coattails. He hasn’t done a whole lot since then, at least not a lot of positive changes for which he is receiving any accolades. BUT - Obama stumped for him in VA, and Kaine has been stumping for Obama around the world, uh, I mean, COUNTRY, and now they are BFFs! Woohoo!!!! Kaine has now moved to the short list for VP!! Gosh - he must be really experienced, and his constituents must really love him, right?? Uh, no.

Like Obama (wow - I almost typed “Bush” then - I am not kidding, and it isn’t just because I’m tired!), Kaine isn’t all that experienced, certainly not in important matters like foreign affairs. Which would help since Obama has no experience, even with his NINE DAY trip!!!! A whole nine days - that is enough, right??? No. No, Obama, it is not even anywhere in the same ballpark as REAL experience, like Clinton’s. But you know that already. You’re just trying to appease your cultists, um, ah, I mean FOLLOWERS. Oh, that isn’t right, either - SUPPORTERS! Yes, that is what politicians are supposed to have - supporters Okay. Got it. Anywho…

Ahem. Since you may know NOTHING about Gov. Kaine, he is personally opposed to the death penalty as a practicing Catholic, but when he campaigned as a gubernatorial candidate, he assured people he would not impose him personal beliefs on the state. In other words, he would not prohibit death penalty executions. Wow - what a stand up guy. He was not going to allow his personal faith to supersede the Commonwealth of Virginia’s laws (and I hasten to say that I am completely opposed to the death penalty - always have been). Well, okay then.

Oh, but wait - there is more. While Governor Kaine wouldn’t impose his religious beliefs on the death penalty, he had/has NO problem imposing them on the issue of - wait - for - it, yes, ABORTION!! So, a woman better not kill a zygote, but it’s A-OKAY to kill a full-grown adult. Yes, indeedy! That makes sense, right?? Oh, yeah, NO. Governor Kaine, before he was governor, said he had a “faith-based opposition” to abortion, and vowed to promote ABSTINENCE focused education - you know, the one that doesn’t WORK. And to ban so-called partial-birth abortions. This was a more popular position in VA than his opposition to the death penalty. In other words, his faith-based opposition takes a backseat to political aspiration. One was not politically expedient - the death penalty issue. The other one was - abortion. Regardless, now that Obama has secured the endorsements of NARAL, and even more importantly, for the second time ever in presidential politics, Planned Parenthood’s, it makes PERFECT sense that he would target an anti-choice candidate to run as Vice President. It highlights that some of the very few times Obama exposed his true colors was his exceedingly patronizing comments to/about women and when they can/not choose to have an abortion.

What’s that I hear? Oh, it is Planned Parenthood being thrown under the bus. And NARAL. Couldn’t happen to two more deserving organizations supporting OBAMA over CLINTON after all of the work she has done on behalf of women, and the sexist, patronizing, arrogant way in which Obama has treated women, especially on choice!

So, all of you Obamabots trying to hold Roe v. Wade over our heads, what say you NOW, huh??? Really think he is not going to turn back the clock on women’s rights like you claim McCain will do, and Obama won’t? Because I think you are dead wrong. He doesn’t give a damn about women and our health. He has made that abundantly clear. In the same way he proved he doesn’t give a crap about the Constitution voting for FISA and telecom immunity (AT&T welcomes you to the Denver Democratic National Convention - I kid you not!), oh, and PLEASE stop calling him a “Constitutional Scholar” - he was a lecturer at the same law school he had just attended. It’s like being a TA, for crying out loud. And he has made it clear as day - HE DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION! He cares about getting money, and getting elected. Your lives will be SO much smoother once you accept that! He will say and do whatever he has to do to accomplish those two tasks. So, quit with the whole Roe v. Wade scare tactic, because Obama DOES NOT CARE ABOUT WOMEN and our health. He does not. Too bad Planned Parenthood and NARAL apparently cared more about publicity (and money?? Does anyone know if Obama’s “Hope PAC” gave them money?) than they did about supporting the candidate who would work the hardest for the issues about which they claim to care. Thanks a whole lot for the capitulation there, PP and NARAL. How do you people sleep at night?

So, Tim thinks we should care what he thinks about abortion, like so many other men. And he wants to impose HIS “faith-based opposition” on VA, and presumably, the country, should the world got to hell in a handbasket and Obama gets into the White House with him. Holy Cow.

These men, and obviously, Tim Kaine in particular, reminds me of when I was in seminary in NYC, and got to go see Whoopi Goldberg’s one woman show on Broadway. One of her characters, a drug addict with a PhD in English Literature from Columbia University (”what else are you going to do with a PhD in English Literature?”) said when confronted by some Operation Rescue-like people, something along the lines of, if you men are so opposed to abortion, “why don’t you take that tired ol’ piece of meat down to the ASPCA and get it gassed??” In other words, Tim, if you are against abortions, don’t have one. Stop trying to impose your “faith-based opposition” on us. Same goes for you, Mr. “Feeling Blue” “Mental-distress-isn’t-physically-threatening” Obama. Just spare us the patronizing pandering already.

And once again, SuperDelegates, pay attention!! The best candidate on this issue is: HILLARY CLINTON. Get with the program already.

Comment by LDW | 2008-07-30 14:32:21

This video is very annoying, and I stopped watching after about 20 seconds.

1) The carnival-voice narrator doesn’t pronouce his words, and if there’s anything worse than slurring it’s loud slurring.

2) The only ‘visual’ in the first 20 seconds is the well known photo of Obama in Muslim dress, and the photo dances and jiggles and swirls. It’s tired and lame.

This video is guaranteed to annoy and unlikely to persuade.

Thumbs down.

I truly pray that he picks Kaine. There goes another pick piece of his support. There goes any critique of “women” who are too “spiteful” not to see that John McCain will take Roe v. Wade away. NARAL and PP are getting exactly what they put their money on. A MAN who when faced with issues that pertain to WOMAN doesn’t have a clue and doesn’t do the work necessary to figure it out. I guess the “present” votes were exactly what we thought they were all along.

No votes for You, Obama. PUMA!

Kaine has lots of funny possibilities with his name … “nova-Kaine” comes to mind. He’s soooooo boring to listen to!

I wasn’t buying this, but then I saw you using ALL CAPS and multiple exclamation marks or question marks.

Now I don’t know what to believe.

 

Comment by Morgan | 2008-07-30 14:22:15

Come on, Bush was at least a Governor first, unlike Obama. I am an R, and I know he’s not a favorite here, but I’m telling you, Obama’s worse– both in arrogance and experience.

I have a hard time imagining Obama’s VP, trying to follow on all that ridiculous rhetoric. How long until the VP goes under the bus for something?

Comment by workingclass artist | 2008-07-30 14:27:27

Being GOV of Texas is a big fat nothin….an empty post with little power.
In Texas the LT. Gov has all the power and runs the legislature. Often the two are of opposing parties. Good Post Rev. Amy hope the SD’s quit hiding under the bed and pay attention….WE WILL…

Comment by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy | 2008-07-30 14:48:28

Thanks, WCA!

Well, really - if Obama does use Kaine as his fall guy, it fits in PERFECTLY with being governor of TX, right? It would mean KAINE was doing all of the work!

Ahem.

Yes, this kind of thing, along with the new video by GeekLove of following the money trail, makes it clear why the SDs have been voting as they have - and it is NOT what their consitutents wanted. It’s all abt money. That’s why we have to make it clear to them that their support is tenuous - we vote them in, and we can vote them out.

Comment by beebop | 2008-07-30 14:52:47

Can we call them “Kaine and Disabeled?” Rev Amy?

Comment by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy | 2008-07-30 15:04:54

LOL - good one!

Or, a la Kevin’s comment above, maybe Quayle Redux?

 
 
 
 

Comment by Diana | 2008-07-30 14:30:50

O I never thought of it like that. That would be Obama’s style. Someone to pass off the blame to. Maybe he will pick Kaine…I uh, I uh, I uh it was Kaine. I have always said/always been consistent.(take your pick because you know once he says either of these a lie is about to follow)

Comment by Zee | 2008-07-30 14:43:51

Diana, in the service of accuracy I must correct your parody.

Uhhhbama would say I-I-I-uh…uh…

He always stammers his “I’s” and intersperses his “uhs.”

Just sayin’.

Definitely a wonderful pick for Bobo. Certainly won’t challenge Bobo on qualifications or charisma. Great match.

Comment by imustprotest | 2008-07-30 15:21:40

Yes that’s called “reinforcing the ticket”. Instead of going with someone who’s experienced in foreign and/or domestic policy to balance..he’s picked someone who’s just as inexperienced and unaccomplished as him.

 
 

Comment by Paul3triple | 2008-07-30 14:24:57

I am telling you, we should all flood the DNC and obama HQ’s with soaring praise for Kaine.
That pick would lock it up for Jonny Mac and make women all the more weary and sick to their stomach with this ass clown.
Sabotage Sabotage Sabotage.

Just like he did to the caucus’s.

Comment by Diana | 2008-07-30 14:25:33

I saw that yesterday. I don’t think he’ll pick Kaine that would be another with no foreign or military experience. Which would not help him in the least. I still think he’s going to choose Hagel.

Comment by workingclass artist | 2008-07-30 14:31:32

I think he should go ALL HOG and choose CONDI RICE…That would bring all us women and AA’s together to sing KUMBIYA and Hey Let’s record a UNITY ALBUM with the proceeds from our LOVE FEST to pay for Plumbing for Barry’s Granny…LOL

Comment by Zee | 2008-07-30 14:45:41

too funny.

But Hagel and he are the PERFECT vote-jacking thug combo.

 

Comment by tzada | 2008-07-30 14:59:36

Not so very far fetched at all. After all it was Condi that told the disputed President of Kenya (the one that beat out Obama’s cousin) to create the office of Prime Minister for said cousin, Ralia Odinga. The same cousin who Obama went to campaign for in Kenya. The same cousin whose supporters burned an assembly of God church full of people?

Since a read the article of Ms Rice doing that my outlook on her has changed, and not for the better.

Did Obama use tax payers dollars to fund that trip? Was the act of him campainging in a foreign country against the law?

Comment by JoseyJ | 2008-07-30 16:08:32

Good questions!

 

Comment by unityindiversity | 2008-07-30 23:58:01

TZADA i am so glad someone has finally brought this up.

Here are the facts:
obama traveled to Kenya 2006 on his official Senate Visa
He was briefed by our ally, the Kenyan democracy before he arrived, as it was considered an ‘Official Visit”
To their shock and dismay he used the trip to campaign stump for odinga calling the existing democracy (our vital US ally) ‘corrupt’ and inciting crowds that the government needed “CHANGE!”- sound familiar.

His conduct was so inflammatory that the Kenya Government issued an Official Statement of Protest, very specifically stating his misuse of his Senate passport and addressing the false charges he made against our ally.

BTW same trip he visited his father’s native village and proclaimed a promise he would send back help for their makeshift, poverty level shack of a school. HE NEVER DID SO to the present!

Do not know the finances of that trip but do know this_ WHEN A US SENATOR ABUSES HIS PASSPORT, and after an official briefing by an ally host, CAMPAIGN STUMPS AGAINST OUR ALLY across their own country- HE SHOULD BE CENSORED BY THE US SENATE.

And he never was. If people start writing complaint letters about this to their own Congressmen (especially Sr. Senators/particularly Repub Senators) that should help.

It wouldn’t hurt to add- in such letters of protest demanding an official US Senate Censureship for his conduct in Kenya - that the first cousin he campaigned for went on to become a genocidal mass murderer whose instigations of “Rigged Election” and violence brought down the country’s whole economy.

Now that odinga has blasted his way into a makeshift PM slot - which never existed before- he has used his current powers, among other things - to get oil contracts for terrorist country instead of India, which bid higher. He has also refused Christian Africans right to return to their homes - from which they were driven out by his ODM thugs during his non-election.

YES, obama should have been censured for this - and still should be! This association makes Rezko and Wright look like innocent chums!

Barky thinks he’s perfect. Why would he want anyone to add anything to the ticket? He’s happy to get one red state ….

 

Comment by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy | 2008-07-30 14:56:59

But Obama said he didn’t NEED a VP military experience (or foreign policy, if I recall correctly)!!! Does anyone else remember him saying that? It was a couple of months ago when the assumption was exactly that - he’d pick someone with military experience. He said emphatically no. Hey - why should the VP be any more experienced than the Prez?!?!

Comment by beebop | 2008-07-30 15:23:18

Here you go:

At a fundraiser last night in San Francisco, Sen. Obama said that he “knows and understands the world better than Senator Clinton or Senator McCain.” Therefore, according, to Obama, his potential running mate would not need foreign policy experience. I guess a potential Bill Richardson vice presidency would simply be a tokenistic ploy for Latino votes- and that would be all. Read Obama’s words below, for the full effect of its brashness. From the Huffington Post:

Comment by Susan | 2008-07-30 15:50:27

Has he moved up to more hallucinigenic drugs???? I mean seriously. There is no way this guy is not on drugs now. In most of his interviews he looks stoned, which would explain the stammering and dreamy look to him and not being able to nswer the questions!

I can’t take much more of this!

Why don’t they just move the conventions up and then have the election the following week? Let’s trounce him now!

Can’t…take…much…more…help….PUMA!

Comment by Lou | 2008-07-30 16:19:11

Fraudbama visited that poppy/pot grower in Afganistan. They woke the grower up from his sleep and then stopped rolling the cameras. Obama got bag fulls of Afgannie pot and took it with him on the plane. He is stoned out of his gourd. MEchelle told him if he was going to run for president he had to quit the doping but he leaves her at home now or stumping, so he can get shitfaced stoned without her knowing.
He pissed off the Iranians and now they want to nuke us and send electro magnetic waves over USA to destroy us and ….arghhh,
ah well things are brewing. You Obama stoners supporters prepare yourself for an upset. Obama does NOT have enough of the REQUIRED PLEDGED DELEGATES TO BE THE PRESUMPTUOUS NOMINEE. The vote will be at the convention.
Obama cannot beat MCCAIN so shut up and let Hillary take over and we can have a DEM in the whitehouse.
Things are brewing. We will succeed! We will not be pushed out of the race. IT”S NOT OVER!
President Hillary Rhodham Clinton 2008!
Cindy Sheehan-speaker of the house-2008
Ed Oreilly Senator of Mass-2008
Ed Wexler in jail for fraud. 2008
and more on the list of frauds jailed and Obama spared jailed for fraud..shares cell with Rezco. (lucky him-London officials have a deadly plan for Fraudbama)
Just like JFK huh?

Comment by judd | 2008-07-30 14:28:17

I read somewhere that Kaine cancelled an appearance at an Obama event for tonight.

If I am right, perhaps this is why and Kaine might be getting tossed under the bus.

Will Obama just ever quit?

He is just plain stupid.

His vetters including Ms. Caroline Kennedy are stupid for even getting on Obama’s bus.

Yes, I hold Ms. Caroline Kennedy accountable.

Obama is no comparison to her father. PLeeeeze

She is dreaming.

Obama is making his VP vetters look even more foolish than they already are.

If they are smart, I say everyone on that Obama bus better just jump because win or lose it is going to crash sooner or later and they will crash with it.

 

Comment by Phoenix | 2008-07-30 14:30:03

Anyone pay attention to the early Dartmouth speech where he was not going to vote to give immunity to communications companies, where we were going to have an epiphany and vote for him, where (the first?) woman fainted?? Well, thank god Senator Clinton is NOT on his “short list”. I would hope she would not associate herself with this Loser. As far as I am concerned, anyone he picks, who says “yes”, is a loser.

 

Comment by AnnieCarmel | 2008-07-30 14:31:09

He’s between a rock and a hard place.

Choose someone strong and experienced and he’s exposed as he really is: immature, inexperienced, not presidential and prompts the general response of WTF are they thinking?

Choose someone with as little experience as he has and the two of them come across as: immature, inexperienced, not presidential and prompts the general response of WTF are they thinking?

Yes, Barack. This is our/your moment…and the defining one as well.

Comment by educatedwhitewoman | 2008-07-30 14:46:35

I saw Kaine on TV, fending off questions about a possible VP spot, and was not impressed. He seemed weak to me. I believe that Barack has problems dealing with anyone who makes him look weak or threatens his inflated, but insecure, notions of superiority. It’s that NPD thing.

This is the ‘latest’ from Obama supporter Ludacris, I believe he’s under the bus already, between Uncle Jeremiah and racist Grandma:
“You never should’ve doubted him
with a slot in the president’s iPod Obama shattered ‘em
Said I handled his biz and I’m one of his favorite rappers
Well give Luda a special pardon if I’m ever in the slammer
Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president
Hillary hated on you, so that b—- is irrelevant
Jesse talking slick and apologizing for what?…

“You can’t stop what’s bout to happen, we bout to make history
the first black president is destined and it’s meant to be
the threats ain’t fazing us, the nooses or the jokes
so get off your ass, black people, it’s time to get out and vote!
paint the White House black and I’m sure that’s got ‘em terrified
McCain don’t belong in ANY chair unless he’s paralyzed…”

Comment by Cat in NJ | 2008-07-30 15:28:05

That Ludacris rap is truly inspiring. And that lame ol’ Bill Clinton’s dull campaign message was “Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow”. Wow, we’ve come a long way since then.

 

Comment by Total disgust | 2008-07-30 16:29:02

Wow! That was great! Not really it was really pretty lame. Rap at its worse. Is this the kind of shit we have to look forward to if osama gets in? Oh good I can’t wait. NOT! The entire country would fall to pieces under his administration. Oh maybe not with all of his accomplishments thus far in Chicago. Oh thats right he doesn’t have any does he. And then who would he throw under the bus? I can only guess ah i dunno know white folks? Give me a break. This election is turning into the biggest display of ignorance and arrogance this country has ever seen. Gee I wonder why.
It really doesn’t matter who he picks for a VP I believe most voters have made up their mind. The ones that havent surely would not cast a vote for this idiot.
He is a fake.He would not know the truth if it jumped over the bus. I never thought there were so many uninformed Americans.
TURN OFF THE TELEVISIONS PEOPLE. READ SOMETHING.
I know how about a history book. WORLD HISTORY!!!
God bless America and Hillary Clinton!

Comment by katmandu | 2008-07-30 14:41:47

Kaine weak on foreign affairs? Try governing something, like, uh, domestically. Here’s what Prof. Larry Sabato said of Kaine yesterday. Sabato is THE expert on VA politics.

http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/political_commentary/commentary_by_larry_j_sabato/vice_president_tim_kaine

Few nonpartisan observers in Virginia regard Kaine’s tenure in the Governor’s Office as particularly successful. Having known every governor since Albertis Harrison (1962-1966) and having studied the records of the dozen most recent governors, I would characterize Kaine’s term to this point as belonging to the bottom quartile. To be fair, he has a year and a half to go, and sometimes a Virginia governor can make a final push that raises his grade considerably.

Picking Kaine for VP would be like picking Ludacris to head the National Endowment for the Humanities. (I’m sure many of you already know about the latest Ludacris song in honor of Obama?) http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/07/a-ludacris-obam.html

Comment by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy | 2008-07-30 14:59:35

Thanks for this - Larry Sabato is VERY well respected in VA, and is even keeled in his assessments (he’s a prof at UVA). Good piece!!

Ludacris- “Politics” (Obama is Here)

Rapper Ludacris unveils a new track in support of Sen. Barack Obama for president. In the track, titled “Politics: Obama is Here”, Luda calls Hillary Clinton the B-word and challenges black voters to “get off your ass and vote!” It’s horrible. It’s violent. It’s creepy. Yep, those are BO’s buddies, along with Farrakhan and the rest of the people who hate white women! Team OBAMA keeps a TIGHT HOLD ON HIS MESSAGE and this video did not get release without someone high up on TEAM OBAMA signed off on it.
Obama had no problem with this video going out on the airwaves and I don’t see any OBAMA speaking out against this……..oops let me backtrack, Obama has a HUGH problem with women

Here, have some hope and change Ludacris style:
Said I handled his biz and I’m one of his favorite rappers
Well give Luda a special pardon if I’m ever in the slammer
Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president
Hillary hated on you, so that b^$&%* is irrelevant
Jesse talking slick and apologizing for what?
if you said it then you meant it how you want it have a gut!
and all you other politicians trying to hate on my man,
watch us win a majority vote in every state on my man
you can’t stop what’s bout to happen, we bout to make history
the first black president is destined and it’s meant to be
the threats ain’t fazing us, the nooses or the jokes
so get off your ass, black people, it’s time to get out and vote!
paint the White House black and I’m sure that’s got ‘em terrified
McCain don’t belong in ANY chair unless he’s paralyzed

Comment by Zee | 2008-07-30 15:01:25

I’m glad you included the age-ist comment about McCain as well as the sexist one against Hillary. As if Obama the pathetic mid-lifer with the bad back who can’t shoot hoops anymore is someone to talk.

Luda can rot his sorry butt in jail for all I care. Or not…we’ll be laughing in his face come mid-November.

I just went to Uppity Woman’s site (she has a whole post on this) and in an UPDATE it says that the Obama camp denounced this song…yep Ludacris is under the bus! (I wonder if the ipod had to go under the bus with him?)

As long as Hillary doesn’t dirty herself by joining BO!

Perhaps the messiah will pick John the Baptist, or better yet, Judas.

I heard today that Obama leaked to the press the prayer he left in the wall in Israel, if this is true, that mean this man holds nothing sacred.

Comment by beebop | 2008-07-30 15:03:27

I saw that too. What a scum.

Comment by samb | 2008-07-30 15:10:55

You would think that is would wake people up to this man , but people can’t admit that the god like Obama. is a arrogant and ambitious person who will win at all cost even if it means lying about praying in a sacred place for political gain.

What else is new? Yes, it is true.

Based on these statements by Maariv, Israel Insider concluded that the Obama campaign “managed the event brilliantly, if deceptively, getting the double benefit of appearing to be victimized by the invasive Israeli press and prayer-thieving Jew while at the same time leaking out his humble Christian plea to the Lord.”

This take will certainly help with Jewish voters and donations, nu? :)

He was not going to allow his personal faith to supersede the Commonwealth of Virginia’s laws (and I hasten to say that I am completely opposed to the death penalty - always have been). Well, okay then.

Rabble Rouser, with Obama now at the helm, it is now “Well, okie dokie then.

We all need to practice up a little more on our Obama-rosetta-stone. :-)

WARNING EXLICIT LYRICS

I’m not a fan of this genre of music, but just to see what other lyrics Ludacris may have written — the man Obama called a great talent — I went to a site that had the lyrics to a song called 1st and 10 at the top, a song on Ludacris’ “Back for the First Time” album. Here they are (he’s singing with two others):

1st & 10 lyrics
(feat. Infamous 2-D & Fate Wilson)

Click, click
Click, click
Yeah
Click, click
DTP nigga!

[Infamous 2-0]
I started with ten mack tens
And ten clips and ten pens
Got ten times richer in the span of ten years
Bitch I’m ten times two on a scale of one to ten
I’ll battle ten crews with the strength of ten men

[Fate Wilson]
At nine, I was into crime, sex, and drugs
Pushin’ an ‘89 Box Chevy sittin’ on dubs
Nine thugs all ski masks, black suited with gloves
Break the imprinted chest with at least nine slugs

[Ludacris]
Man I ate eight clips with eight chicks
Watching eight flicks
You’s 8-6 if you ate pussy with fake lips
I figure eight when my mind goes in circles
DID I DO THAT or was it Mystikal and Urkel?

[Infamous 2-0]
On to 7 Ak 47, so what?
I got seven hoes stoppin’ by at seven to fuck
Then put seven in your chest seven days a week
And add a foot for good measure you’ll be seven feet deep

[Chorus]
It goes 10-9-8-7-6-5-4
3-2-murder 1 lyrics at your door
These DTP niggas come ready for war
So don’t start the fucking game
If you won’t settle the score

[Fate Wilson]
I got six hoes distributing on six blocks
It’s blistering from cops tryna stop these rocks from distributing
Six gun shots left
One pint of Vodka before this pimp will hit
It’s street justice, now it’s six hole in your casket

[Ludacris]
Give me a high five and I’ll put that nine lower than your esophagus
Then smack you so hard that you have to come with 2Pacalypse
Five stars, twenty rims, five cars
I’d add more but I had to subtract one from five bars

[Infamous 2-0]
I got four forty-fours on a rip on the floor
For you niggas talkin’ shit
I’m fixin’ to show you what for
I did four months in the bing instead of a hearst
Now it’s DTP for life, dog for better or worse

[Fate Wilson]
I fuck three best friends
Ran on all three the same game
In these streets I’m a murderer
I got three alias names
I’m three times insane
Three shots will cave your brain
On 3 fire and ready, cock back and aim

[Chorus]
It goes 10-9-8-7-6-5-4
3-2-murder 1 lyrics at your door
These DTP niggas come ready for war
So don’t start the fucking game
If you won’t settle the score

[Ludacris]
I’m packing two twenty-twos and twice the ammunition
But at Friday the 13th
What’s up now superstition?
I’m a two timer with a couple of twins
Double jeopardy
With a pair of two deuces in the two seater Benz

[Fate Wilson]
I got one motto get dough till your gone
I got one main lady the rest of y’all is hoes
I’m numero uno with one more before I go
If you think I ain’t the one bitch you too slow

[Infamous 2-0]
And all you zero ass niggas ain’t nothin’ to me
Because I chop up O’s, move dro’, and chop keys
0-6 is my clique along with PC
Pretty Rick, Calil, V-Slim and Shondrez

[Ludacris]
It goes 1 to 10 and 10 to 1
Ludacris, Fake Feeze, and that nigga I-Twain
It goes 1 to 10 and 10 to 1
Ludacris, Fake Feeze, and that nigga I-Twain

It goes 10-9-8-7-6-5-4
3-2-murder 1 lyrics at your door
These DTP niggas come ready for war
So don’t start the fucking game
If you won’t settle the score
—-end of lyrics

Okay. Anyone care to look up another song from the man Obama says is talented?

Golly…I can’t wait till he rewrites the National Anthem….

Comment by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy | 2008-07-30 16:44:26

ROTFLMAO - no freakin’ kidding. Hey, if that woman could do it in Denver, why can’t Ludacris and Obama?!?!

 
 

Comment by Tess | 2008-07-30 15:34:42

I truly had no idea whites were so hated. I don’t know what else to say about Ludacris, one of Obama’s favorites. I think Obama and company have set back race relations for at least a couple of decades.
As someone else said, all Hillary did to be so hated was run for the Presidency. Ludacris wants McCain paralyzed because he’s running against Obama?
I’ve been a Progressive and a Democrat all my life. I don’t know that I’ll ever be the same after this.

McCain = Patriot!
Ludacris = Hatriot!

Hillary 08′!
-OR-
McCain 08′!

NOBAMA!

That’s brilliant AX10 - is what we should all start calling bozo’s best buds;

Hatriots is what they are!

I Have been thinking lately Barry needs to find a 20 year member of the KKK that can say, “That is not the David Duke I knew” to be his running mate.

 

Comment by Total disgust | 2008-07-30 16:41:17

Tess I couldn’t agree more. He has set race relations back. The sad part is there are no winners. He is the great divider. He is a race baiter and did it very successfully. Now it doesn’t matter what happens the damage is done. If he wins which he won’t he will fail miserably forcing all blacks to see what a mistake it was to follow (support) him and if and when he loses blacks will feel that they were cheated out of the white house.
It is a no win scenario. And Ole Asselrod knows it. Wow what a great group. Makes you proud doesn’t it? What a bunch of losers.

I read all the words and I didn’t see the word “hope” even once. Am I missing something? ;)

Rev. Amy, do you have an actual congregation and may we be in it?

LOL - Zee, you are already in it, and I am HAPPY to have you! As WorkingClass Artist said, there is plenty of room!! And PJKayne is bringing the refreshments - NICE!! :-D

Comment by PKJayne | 2008-07-30 16:52:12

I stole em from the Denver truck passing thru town.

Comment by Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy | 2008-07-30 17:25:34

Well done!

Hey, Tess and Total Disgust, I agree, too. I think Obama is even more divisive than Bush - never thought that was even POSSIBLE. His constant use of race-baiting and claiming anyone not for him is racist is insulting beyond belief.

KAINE ENDORSES LIEBERMAN ; BACKS SENATOR FOR PRESIDENT Tyler Whitley

9 May 2003
The Richmond Times-Dispatch

Lt. Gov. Timothy M. Kaine has endorsed Connecticut Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman for president.

“Joe’s record as a state official and senator shows he has the qualities necessary to lead our nation, strengthen our economy and promote a safer world,” Kaine said in a statement released yesterday.

Kaine is the first top-ranking state officeholder to endorse a Democratic presidential hopeful. Lieberman, the party’s vice presidential candidate in 2000, is one of nine Democrats seeking the nomination…

In a statement, Kaine said: “Joe is the right person to revive the
