Puhleeeze...I think that our nation might survive. It was much more offensive when Bush 43 made fun of WMD.

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.

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 don't care who you are. I'm only addressing your laughable argument.

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.
