That bit of a song lasted less than 10 seconds, and this means that President Obama is "glorifying rap?"
Puhleeeze...I think that our nation might survive. It was much more offensive when Bush 43 made fun of WMD.
Why should educated, hard working and socially productive individuals like myself be forced to stoop down to the level of those that are not? That's BS American mentality of political correctness.
These are grown adults, not young naive children. No excuse for being involved in the life style they are.
It's fricken music. Having a hissy fit over it is not what grown adults do.
Or, you know, success as a musician, who grew up in a tough of town, overcame it, and recommends that others not follow his path. Again , it's amazing how angry people get at successful black people. I especially love how conservatives hate any black person who won't rant about "Dat democrat plantation."
Whatever. As Obama indicated, we'll stay winning. And you'll stay hating. Have fun, Palins.
I voted for Obama in 2008.
I'm not a Republican or conservative. What's your next excuse?

I notice it seems to be Southern posters disagreeing with me. I wonder why
Yes, I have children. No I do not listen to rap. And no, there is nothing wrong with much of hip hop rap. It started as a social movement to combat injustice and raise awareness of issues that minorities and those in poverty face. The music industry has changed it to glorify drugs/violence/sex just as the music industry uses all other types of genres to do. The use of this song at the White House was ironic and a joke and nothing more. Get over it.
I don't care who you are. I'm only addressing your laughable argument.
Do you listen to Rap?
