Bitter Words for Barack Obama
Posted by Bossip Staff
“The Boondocks” creator spoke his mind while at Earlham College the other night, and came off sounding like a bit of a d*k in the process:
“The Boondocks,” comic strip and animated series creator Aaron McGruder entertained, intrigued and outraged his audience at Earlham College on Monday night.
Appearing at the college for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, McGruder answered questions posed by the audience and by associate professor James Logan. Mixing political opinion and satire is hard to do in comics and cartoons, he said. “It’s not having a statement, it’s entertaining people so they listen.”
On the eve of President Barack Obama’s inauguration, McGruder is “cautiously pessimistic” about the presidency. “I don’t think you’re going to see any dramatic change from Barack Obama,” said McGruder, who wore a “Boondocks” T-shirt over a black long-sleeve shirt and jeans. “I’m hoping he proves me completely wrong.”
McGruder bases his opinions of the U.S. presidency on the 2000 election and how nothing has been done since then to change the election system. “It was a sham then … It’s got to still be a sham,” McGruder said. “I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade, but it’s what I tend to do.”
On the topic of race and ethnicity, McGruder said that to him, Obama is not black because he is not a descendant of a slave. “The person who is one of us in the White House is Michelle Obama and her momma,” McGruder said.
His comments outraged Dionne Robinson, 44, of Richmond. “I want my $5 back,” she said. “It’s one thing to have an opinion, but he doesn’t have any facts. He needs to go back to college.”
Robinson said that people were enslaved in many parts of the world, not just in America.
Her son, Zane Robinson, 14, of Richmond watches “The Boondocks,” but was disappointed by the show’s creator. “He’s nothing like his show,” Zane said. “I thought it was kind of boring. His answers were long and they didn’t make any sense.”
Sounds like this dude just likes to be controversial. And when the freak will these busters stop talking all that gahbage about Barack not being Black?? Elevate, suckas.

oh dear, am just about to have a ***** moment!
Some people talk just to hear their voice. I agree with you, he’s seeking to stir up a bit of controversy!
If you wanted to hear someone preach to their choir than you shouldn’t go see someone like McGruder. His show and comic strip are controversial and always have been
Let me get this straight…his dad is from Kenya, but yet he’s not a decendant of a black? SMH
And one more thing…this brother questioning someone’s ethnicity? He is a bit light and that hair isn’t exactly screaming African descent! (giving him the “oh no you not talking during church” side eye!)
idot, some Africans were enslaved in Africa…..whose to say that Baracks ancestors werent enslaved…this guy is an idiot…the reality is this, Barack is a man, he is not a super hero, I don’t look at him as the answer to all of America’s prayers…but he signifies a sign of change in that America has finally gotten over the color of someone’s skin and united in saying regardless of what color he is, he can run our country as good as if not better than anyone else…..
HE MUST HAVE SOME STINK MEANER AND UNCLE RUCKUS IN HIS BLOOD. I LOVED THE SHOW BUT HE REALLY IS OFF BASE FOR THESE COMMENTS
Who is he to tell anyone who’s black and who’s not?!? HIS FATHER CAME DIRECTLY FROM THE MOTHERLAND, WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT?!? BOOOOO!!!
He’s an idiot. If you really want to get technical, Barack Obama is African American in every sense of the word. He is the descendant of Africans(on his father’s side) and he was born in America!! Aaron McGruder is about to make a lot of people hate him.
***** him and his opinion, it’s just like an *****hole everybody has one.
lol@the fact yall think just cause you from Africa you was a slave.hahahahaha
they didn’t expect this but they watch the Boondocks…wtf is wrong with people. REFUND DENIED
Thats ok Aaron, not everyone can ride the fantasy white horse all the time, some of us actually use objective thought and reasoning.
YOU CANT GET MAD AT HIM BECUZ HE IS TELLIN THE TRUTH…
What does black have to do with being the decendant of a slave.
Is that the definition of being black?
This brother needs to let it go .
Jealousy is a desease
ya know what, I have an opinion too, stick with the cartoons *****, its what you do best.
just by looking at his complexion, you can tell that he’s not entirely from African descent. That, my friends, is the definition of irony. And contradiction. And oxymoron.
I actually like Boondocks and the point they’re usually trying to make…and I totally expected this from Aaron.
Just watching the behind the scenes snippets, he is long winded, and he strays from the actual questions 90% of the time. I see WHAT he’s trying to say, but there’s no justification. Black people are the descendants of Africans, no matter how far back we’re talking. Barack’s father is straight up AFRICAN, like FROM Africa. So although Barack is a product of the swirl, and was raised by white people, he is still “one of us” (whatever that means).
How dare a black man have his own opinion!!!
This is too fuuny that people are upset by what he was saying. You not have ever read the coimcs or seen his show:P
the only thing i disagree with is his point about Barack not being Black, he is African American.
However the dude has a valid point with the whole election sham thing, in that the system is probably messed up and that things wont change too much.
this is because the essense of U.S Foreign Policy in particular has not changed in the previous 8 administrations, 8! Historically Democrats and Republicans advocate the same foreign policies, the only differences is domestic policy and that the Bush administration was more aggressive and millitaristic than say Clintons administration!
So…because he is not a decent of a slave, he’s not black. Guess the fact that his father is straight from the Motherland means nothing.
The whole quantification of “Blackness” thing is so old and tired to me…
Being from Eritrea, which is right on top of Kenya (where Obama’s Father is from) I AM black. Both my parents came from Eritrea and I am looked at as African-American by some, Black by other, African by some as well. No my parents or grandparents, or great grand parents were NOT part of slavery in AMERICA but we were enslaved by europeans in our own country. So just because we did not COME to america to be slaves does not entitle or downplay that we WERE slaves.
I have caught this “show” a couple of time and was NOT amused.
Black and proud.
some people just always have to be on the contrary.
he’s a cartoonist; i really don’t care what he thinks.
He is not relevant to anything going in America, so why bother giving a platform. Ignore him and he’ll go away.
I’m not surprised by Aaron McGruder. He’s getting the attention he wants.
He doesn’t look like he is but a shade darker than Obama, the dude got issues. He shouldn’t be speaking in public, special ed ***** *****.
His comments outraged Dionne Robinson, 44, of Richmond. “I want my $5 back,”

lmao! she wouldn’t even pay 5 bucks to see this negro…smh….
let the h8trs hate bossip, because you are one of them at times.
This guy is such a *****!!! I have never heard such bull*****!! Is he trying to say all blacks are from slave descendents?! God help this fool!! You know what education is available to us all…READ people!!
Pure garbage.
And the Boondocks is overrated.
Racist piece of butt
Hannibal= white person hating,
Ok Look let me school you for a short period of time because I’m suppose to be working, My mother is black and my father is black so, that makes me black but, barack obama is more african american than I am because I have to go back, back , and back to trace my roots when, barack obama father extend right from kenya. So please go pick up a history book or something and get educated fast.
I’m black and it *****es me off that black people are saying that Obama is black. HE IS MIXED. He is as much white as he is black. It’s like we need anything we can get to latch on to. You all are acting really pathetic getting mad at someone giving their honest opinion. Say whatever you want but obama is not black.
I agree with him on the change part. One man can’t bring change and it takes more than just pulling a lever once every 4 years. The people have to rise up and demand change!
It really sad that some people are defending this ignorant negro’s comments about our President. How in the hell do you expect others to be happy and respectful of our President when we ourselves are being diresptful towards him.
And why is Aaron bringing up race and who’s more black. Looking at his as, I’d thin he was mixed up too. Whose to say who’s more black, damn, Obama’s father is DIRECTLY from Africa. You can’t get more black than that Aaron. Aaron’s ignorant ***** needs to read up on black history before he opens his mouth.
All he did was have an opinion and the people who went to see him should not have been suprised that is how the cartoon is! HE is entitled to say how he feels plus these people went and PAID him for the comments. lol
I don’t understand the problem with his statement. He is not stirring up in controversy, he is simply stating his opinion… An opinion to me that makes alot of sense. Is he saying anything negative about Obama? No… Yall nuccas just want something to complain about.
What college invites a cartoonist to speak for MLK day?
They got the ignorance they deserved.
@people are stupid.
Stop getting *****ed off it’s not going to change. Once you have one drop of black blood in you,your black sorry.
@Jimathai
Slaves= Descendants of Africans
President Obama= Descendant of African.
Clearly we’re not complaining here. It’s simple math. I hate to say it, but his “opinion” is wrong. Clearly it is factual that Barack and the slaves are descendants of Africans.
@COME ON
YOU ARE FUNNY
Well on the contrary everyone is entitled to their opinions…no matter how offensive they may be. I used to be skeptical of Obama too…its just that we have been so decieved and lied to as a nation by these politicians some people are still giving Obama the side-eye.
He really is just too good to be true…HOWEVER seeing how hard he has fought against these naysayers, how intelligent he is and gracious I look at Barack Obama as a blessing from God.
As for the whole he is not a descendant of slavery comment…now that is just the dumbest thing I will probably hear (or shall I say read lol) all day. I agree with a previous poster…Aaron needs to get his facts in line before publicly speaking. I still love the Boondocks though…for that show McGruder will always be a genius in my opinion.
I can’t wait until the day the color of a man or womans skin is no longer relevant in conversations. Pertaining to slavery, does he even know who he is and where his ancestors are from? Obama identifies himself as a Blackman and he always acknowledges his White mother. If you ask me Obama is a AFRICAN AMERICAN-African father American mother.
What in de hell, slaves does not = descendants of Africa, are you just talking about the middle p*****age??…their were slaves of all races? U’ve got to clarify before you confuse people please.
Aaron McGruder was/is an avid supporter of Barack Obama. He only said that because he wanted to stir the pot, which he often does in his show.
Does anybody ever think “Black” isn’t denoted by color…hmmmmm????
LOL@1 drop of black blood and your black.hahahahaha…whew
thats real gay my *****
however i heard a few things in that 1230 speech i did not concur with…no surprise though
If being half white or at least mixed with white or any other race does not make you black then 70% of the “black” race aint black then becasue we all mixed with something. Whether we know it or not, whether we have a curl in our hair or are a lighter shade of brown.
I, too, am quite pessimisitic that Obama can really change the status quo in Washington. With all the bailouts being given out left and right, when someone actually stands up against lobbyists and corporate interests, than that is change I can believe in.
BUT I totally disagree that Obama isn’t black. As a matter of fact, he is more black than African Americans because his lineage is straight from the motherland and not tainted by slave master blood!
I really used to like Aaron McGruder a lot, because the Boondocks can be sheer brillance sometimes, but he has obvious problems with race and himself.
Has anyone ever noticed there are no Black women in his comic strip, especially as love interest? It’s glaringly obvious. When asked he said he rights from a Black male perspective, which made me wonder, then in the minds of Black men, Black women don’t exist? Or maybe they just don’t exist in the world of Aaron McGruder, who’s ex-girlfriend was filipino by the way. Nothing wrong with that, my grandfather is filipino, but just sayin . . .
Face it, people like Aaron McGruder are miserable because they haven’t made the impact on the world that Obama has.
McGruder, himself, hasn’t done a damn thing to change the way the electoral process works nor has he stepped up to take on the responsibilities of running this country, so his comments means absolutely nothing.
It angers me that bitter Black men like McGruder, Jesse Jackson, Tavis Smiley, and even Maya Angelou have publicly spoken out against Obama saying they have no faith in him, yet they’re always preaching that our children can be whatever they want to be. Now that one of those BLACK kids (Obama is as African-American as it gets) has grown up and taken the world by storm, you have these hating-***** Black people who can’t stand the fact that Obama came out of nowhere and took everybody’s shine mad as hell.
I don’t see what’s wrong with him having his own opinion. That’s the beauty of this country….we can all agree to disagree. What’s wrong with the brother speaking his mind? That’s the true problem with black people. No one can say anything bad about Barack. I wish him the best but even I’m not convinced of any real change.
@ This I know
“I, too, am quite pessimisitic that Obama can really change the status quo in Washington.”
Obama has only been in the White House ONE day! Give the man a chance to prove himself before saying you don’t have faith in him. And even if he doesn’t do a perfect job (which *****ODY can do), he’s still better than Bush Jr. and Sr.
I mean, Jesus, what do some of you people want? Until you start stepping up to at least TRY to make things better for us all, please shut ENTIRELY the hell up.
Thank you.
Do white people debate their whiteness as much as we do our blackness? Just wondering…
I think no I know that Barack Obama is truly an African American, in the purest sense. Read his book The audacity of hope… his dad is a TRUE AFRICAN…. and his Mom Susan was from Kansas
Barack Obama is bi-racial people. Get over the one-drop rule it’s pretty self deprecating. However in being bi-racial he is by definition of two races one of them is black the other is white.
What he was probably trying to get at is that Barack Obama’s ethnicity is not African-American in the way that the majority of blacks are African American. Barack Obama is Kenyan American and no he is not a descendant of slaves.
Not sure why that matters. However in terms of black policy issues barack Obama has yet to address them. So make of that what you will…
I feel sorry for him. I’m curious about his background. Maybe he doesn’t consider himself to be black.
I’m West Indian, my great-grandmother was an Iris woman who married a black West Indian man. What does that make the offsprings? Poor kid
The irony of this is that President Obama has never played the race card .He has on several occasions clearly stated that he is the son of a white woman from Kansas and a black man from Kenya and yesterday at his inauguration both his white and kenyan family were present.This man is not bothered about the colour of his skin he just wants to be a good president of the USA.
Pray for him and let him be.
Also learn from him don’t let the colour of your skin define you.
No I don’t think so^^^^^ but they sure will argue that Barack is half white. My neighbor who is a white Jehova’s Witness wanted to argue that Barack was white… I said ” You don’t even vote so why are you arguing with me about Barack’s color or politics?”
The Boondocks is more minstrel *****, just like Tyler Perrys cooning shows. Aaron Mcgruder is to young and dumb to know anything about the real struggle, because he didn’t actually live it. His comic strip is not really inciteful, it’s more of a controversial type. His knowledge is based on things that he either heard or read about. People who have expierenced and particpated in the struggle since the 60s know exactly what i’m saying. By making the statement that Barack is not of true black heritage is lame and irresponsable. Tell that lil ignorant *****, that Barack is closer to the motherland than he will ever be. When was the last time Aaron spent a month or more in Kenya.
Some of you people in here are complete idiots saying Barack isn’t African-American because “he wasn’t a slave”, or even saying he’s “Kenyan-American”, as if Kenya isn’t in Africa.
What the f*ck???
I may have to boycott the Boondocks now…who in the f*ck said that you had to be descendants of slaves to be Black? Where is that sh*t written in the Black Man’s credo? If you have melanin in your skin, hair like lamb’s wool, and folks have been calling you ***** all of your life you are Black regardless of who your Momma and Daddy are or where they are from!
You know this sambo needs to fall back and take a seat next to that other Sambo Tavis Smiley. And speaking of Sambos…guess honorary ‘Klansman’ Clarence Thomas was somewhere ironing those white sheets for the next rally!
Not all blacks here in the US were slaves. He may want to do some research. Even my basic University history degree taught that.
The Boondocks is not a minstrel it’s actually very subversive and full of relevant socio-political commentary. Just to clarify what I think McGruder is saying is that black people gave this man a p***** *****uming he was one of us and would act accordingly. I’m still waiting on barack black/white or whatever to address issues of concern for the black community; drug laws, education disparities; small business loans; equal oppurtunity employment.
Barack had the black vote in the bag and went for the others- smart politics- but now that he’s in office those of us concerned about black political issues have no promises to hold him to, and quite frankly black people are primed to be underserved by this administration. Especially considering the stifling of dissent I’m hearing and reading.
I’ve heard and read stupid things before.. But this is high on the list of pure ignorance. Its bad enough that Obama gets crap from the other side, but from his own people? Give me a break…..
@ Aunt Viv
No I seriously doubt that they do. We as a people do this and it’s so trivial I don’t understand why this is still even up for debate he is OUR president nor matter his race,color, or creed. People need to get over it and “become the change they want to see in the world” as GHANDI put it.

Do white people debate their whiteness as much as we do our blackness? Just wondering…
Had the new President been Hispanic, Asian, or of another culture, do you think there would be a bunch of Spanish-speaking or Asian people debating back and forth whether or not he’s really of their ethnicity or whether he’ll do a good job or not?
Black people always have a way of tearing each other down rather than being proud that one of us has stepped up and is trying to do better by all. We have dreamt of the day of having our first Black President, and now that the day has come, so have Black haters.
What the hell is wrong with our people???? Why are we so friggin’ miserable? Why is there always so much doubt about our own abilities to do well? Do we not believe in ourselves because we just truly hate who we are, or have we gotten to the point of believing what the white man has been saying about us all along? Whenever I read or hear comments like those made by McGruder and some of you on this board, all it does is confirm what racist white people have been saying about us all along. We don’t even like ourselves!
Purple go sitcho Ben Vereen lookin azz down.
This dude and his ignunt azz cartoon is whack. Having cartoon kids use the word n**ga every 3 mins does not make his ***** a genius. Compared to Family Guy, that show Boondocks is Boon Dookey.
@ ignunt4noReason
Your screen name says it all.
Some of yall keep saying that Obama isnt black, you’ll forgot about the 1percent rule huh??? That is STILL practiced today mind you. For those of you’ll who may have “forgotten” if you have even one percent black blood in you then by American standards your ***** was considered BLACK!
OR
Mulatoo, which was their way of trying seperating the light skin blacks from the darker skin blacks. What about those children who were born during slavery that was a result of the slave master raping the black women slaves huh? You think that they werent considered black and u think that they werent considered slaves too? just because they have some white blood running thru them?? Hell yes they were!!! They were STILL slaves and STILL considered to be black! The only difference is that they were considered to be “House slaves” rather than “Field slaves”
So please ppl brush up on your history, Barack Obama is considered black by American standards, if you want to get specific then yes you can say he is of mixed descent, but a regular white person will not DARE consider him to be like them.
Hell at least he aint like *****ing Tiger Woods, talking about he Caublasian…what *****ing ever, try telling that to the rest of the world,,,they will STILL see you as black!
Wowza…he’s kinda right. Folks are acting like their lives are gonna change because Obama is president. ***** is still bad and too much “hope” is being placed on one man’s shoulders. He’s not the messiah. If McGrudder wasn’t an intelligent man, I would be a little more incensed by his comments, but I understand his POV.
his comments are just really stupid and alot of ppl are missing the point. factually, he is making no sense

YES!! Thank you wise one.
@K-Cee
I like Obama. I voted for him. But does that mean I am suppose to act like he is the messiah like the rest of you all? We as black people should be able and willing to openly disagree with Obama and put his foot to the fire, even if he has only been in office one day. Transparency and accountability still count for something in this world.
LOL..i wont address you cause Special K already told you about yourself…
tj has a brain and uses it i see….
Mathematically its IMPOSSIBLE to recouperate this monetary system. IT IS A PYRAMID SCHEME THAT HAS TO COLLAPSE. Make way for the second coming DEPRESSION, it’s part of capitalistic cycles. Obama has ALREADY succeeded by pacifying and hypnotizing the undercl***** and working cl***** which (includes all shades of people). Obama was chosen years ago to be president by bankers because they knew the inevitability of failure. A lot of dummies fell for the stunt because you rarely see a “successful black man”. We’ve got to stop being neighborhood, baby daddy petty and investigate globalization on our own instead of staring at that idiot box all day. THE PRESIDENCY, THE NEW DRUG.
McGruder is an idiot. Slaves are African.Obama’s father is African. He is black. The end.
@ THIS I KNOW
omg! YOU SAID A MOUTHFUL. People he is a politician he is going to make mistakes he is not going to do what we all want him to do think about what you can do for yourself to better your situation and perhaps just maybe there will be rules implemented to help our community but don’t hold your breath. HE HAS 4 YEARS to build up what it took BUSH 2 years to tear down his first years of presidency will be clean up. You can’t start cooking in a kitchen if all the dishes and utensils are dirty you have to start fresh.

I don’t really play to this “us” and “them” mentality when it comes to mixed raced people. I feel that when you are mixed race you have a choice: you can see yourself as mixed (which is fine) or you can see yourself as black (which is also fine). What a mixed race person will never be able to do is tell people they are white(unless they actually look white). I’m sure Obama has no problem with us seeing him as black/african american, and besides why are we still hung up on this race issue? A great milestone has still been achieved.
It is rubbish to believe that unless you were a decendant of a slave, you are not black. And no, not all people in Africa were enslaved. Are you going to tell Nigerians, Eritreans etc that they are not black? Please stop the bull*****…

Hey, Yeah you know I had to get him it was almost a set up lol.
This goes to show when people think they are relevant, like his opinion really matters from someone who created an ignorant (black cartoon character)….next………..

Many of the problems in this country began long before Bush took office. For example look at the so called “war on drugs.” How long has that been going on? Would Americans care more about this problem if most of the victims were white? No president has really come up with a constructive solution to that problem. If Obama can figure out that issue, then cool. If not, I will continue to hold him and past and current politicians accountable.
Again that is just one example
To answer if I would vote for the white democrat… I have in every other election lol so probably. I would have had to think long and hard if that person were Hillary tho, however once Sarah Palin entered the picture (*****uming she still would have) I would have happily pulled the lever for Hillary.
One interesting thing to consider is how hard Hillary would have had to work for the black vote and how much more we would know about her plans for the black community than we do about Obama’s. People are doing a lot of *****uming along with their celebrating they probably need to take a step back and ask themselves how exactly this administration is going to help them.
I have to agree with McGruder. I am pessimistic myself about barrack. the election system is a shame and has been that why since 2000. it just not going to go away. I WANT MY CHANGE BACK. It has nothing to do with him being black. he could be Hispanic , white , Chinese, etc and I would feel the same way. I didn’t like McCain, Hilary. There is so much corruption in politics that its not any funny. he almost has the same people in his staff as George Jr. he said he was going to close Guantanamo bay and now has changed his mind. he said he would end the war and now is sending 30,000 troops to Afghanistan. People need to understand that the President does not run America. they are people behind the scenes who decided what direction the American people go in. we need to wake up as Americans and take back our Freedom and rights. Most People don’t know is that our rights are being taken away slowly.
Aaron, has his opinion, just like us bloggers get on here all the time. We know we are messed up people. And oppression doesn’t fall to just us blacks, African Americas, Africans or whomever. It’s people as a whole…..
Barack, can’t save the world. We can’t do that unless we change ourselves. I am grateful that he won, he is sworn in, but still we much stay woke and know the realistic view of it all. Yes, politicals are stife. That hasn’t change. That’s how the country was founded. Please the color don’t make you. We make us… Obama doesn’t define change we do. I like his show and will continue to support. Let us all be entitled to our own views. That’s what make us all unique.
What is going on, *****ody thinks that their lives are going to change because of OBAMA, he has just inspired American regarding something so much more…I wish people would stop watering down what this moment really means for this country….this country was built on slavery, hatred……..and to see a black man in power, whether he’s half black…whatever…..it signifies (CHANGE) that’s what the excitement is all about…I refuse to let ignorant liberial (blacks) destroy what this moment is truely about…..OBAMA…OBAMA….OBAMA….!
@FGTFJT
You are so right, my love. It’s all game. They created America on a game and the sweat of other cultures.. We must stay woke as I meant eariler.. But mis-spelled.
He is an attention-w*****. Not giving him anymore.
Any publicity is good publicity for idiots that are not getting any shine.
@ Me
My life will change cause of what God manifested in me and my own purpose. Not Barack, we all have the talent and gifts to be all. Obama, didn’t start that, he only enhance the energy. He is not the savior.

____________________________________________________
Yes what you are saying is very accurate I was speaking of the hear and now for the individuals who want to compare the last administration to the way the current one will be ran. The war on drugs was a crock! Just like Regan saying that he didn’t think was homeless and hungry because there wasn’t enough food or housing it is because the people didn’t no where to go to get these things!!!! The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES said this. But I do agree with you.
aint *****ody watchin his sorry ***** cartoons. he should’ve just left his ***** in the newspapers.
And lastly just to fan the flames before I leave. For those who do say barack is black because Kenya is in Africa and therefore he is African American then what about John Kerry’s kids. There father is American and their mother is South African. Are they then African American certainly they are niether ethnically nor culturally similiar to the descendents of slaves.
Race is by definition socially constructed so it’s power equals whatever society chooses to endow it with. Perhaps Barack is black just because everyone says so, but one wonders who these people are and to what ends do they claim or disclaim him. Is it that black people are desparate to latch on to anything or one? Is it that white people need to sell newspapers, is it a product of lazy television programming and dumbed down journalism?
Whatever. All I want to know is what he is going to do for black people.
As Riley on the Boondocks would say, “That N Gay!”
LOL if thats how he defines black then I guess my dark skin ***** ain’t black then? I’m Haitian-American, first generation soooo because my family weren’t African American slaves I’m not black? Whatever…
You n_ggers are pathetic.
LOL
I’m not going to debate who is really black and how much black blood that takes. However, I do worry when one black man is not allowed to criticize another even if that criticism is unjustified. All blacks do not have to think alike, and I am glad to live in a free society where disagreement does not mean I have to turn in my “black card”.
WOW… as usual you idiots completely missed the point… you really don’t get it… BARACK THE SOCK PUPPET HAS NO CONNECTION TO SLAVERY IN AMERICA… JUST LIKE WE HAVE NO CONNECTION TO IMPERIALISM IN AFRICA… that is the point… his comment had nothing to do with skin tone but rather shared history… the problem is most people are too stupid to pay attention to detail… his comment had nothing to do with the fact that he was raised by white people… or that his father was a british intelligence agent… or that his grandfather Hussein Onyago Obama fought FOR colonial power england in WWI… you idiots somehow equate a banker/foundation puppet who has a more prestigious pedigree than john mclame… with little jerome from down the street… this ***** is worse than different strokes… the point is you idiots have been tricked into believing that T.he H.ierarchy E.nslaving Y.ou would let the descendant of a slave be president…
@tj
I live in the UK and I was under the impression that people would have voted for a chinese man in order to get that buffoon George Bush out of the white house.
The fact is that in the past Afican americans have always voted for white democratic candidates and have hoped that they would provide a solution to their problems.These candidates have basically promised the same things that Barack has in order to get the votes but they were not held to ransom by the African americans that voted for them because they were always re-elected by African american votes(e.g Bill Clinton)
So why do you thing that because Barack got the black vote he has to solely focus on black issues especially when he sees himself as the pesident of all americans.
Is it because he is black/white
I agree with McGruder
CHARLIZE THERON IS AFRICAN AMERICAN… OF EUROPEAN DESCENT… WE ARE BLACK AMERICANS… OF AFRICAN DESCENT… PAY ATTENTION TO DETAIL…
Though I disagree with his opinion on Obama’s blackness (Obama has traceable african heritage — direct in his case– AND, more importantly, considers himself black), I completely understand MacGruder’s point. There has been a lot of discussion of whether or not white people would have been able to entrust their vote to Barack Obama if he had been African-American (in familial heritage) in the same way that say Jesse Jackson is (both parents being black and born into African-American traditions and culture). Although I think Barack is black, and there can be no doubt that his apparent ‘blackness’ was a obstable, similarly his ‘otherness’ and foreign lineage in many ways obviated some of the discomfort intrinsic to the cl*****ic love/hate relationship that white america has for African-Americans.
tj- I totally agree with you. President Obama is not African American in the “traditional” sense. His mother is American (white) his father is Kenyan (African). His father was not a decendent of slaves. There is a difference. His wife is African American. He identifies with the African American culture. Please understand the distinction.
Furthermore, for all of you who think that because he is President, Black people are now “running things” or “in charge” or now your job is safe or your mortgage will be paid or your gas will be taken care of, WAKE UP. THis man is President of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! This means he is charged with looking out for the best interests of the entire Country, not your pocketbook. This is the time for personal accountability. I think he all but said that in his speech yesterday.
Please hold him to the same standards of accountability as you held all Presidents before him. Do not expect and special treatment or consideration. Its time for us (Blacks) to stop waiting on someone to “help” us and start helping ourselves. If you want to latch on to President Obama latch on to that aspect about him. He overcame extreme odds to become President when the cards were stacked against him. I admire President Obama because he is an example to my son and to all of us that nothing is impossible. It may be more difficult but it is not impossible.
I can speak on this all day, but I have work to do…
my president is black my lambo blue and ill be gotd@m if my rims aint too!!
@ tj
Instead of saying all you want to know is what he is going to do for black people. you should say what is he going to do for the American people. We should all be as one. that’s why we are in the situation we are in. they have us divide in regards to race among other issue’s. we tend to forget about the real issue’s that face all Americans. we need to focus on taking back America from our corrupt government before we can do anything for anybody. The true power of America , are The People not the President or Government. just like that old saying ” *****ody is going to take care of you but you”. *****ody , not the President nor Government will care about you. We need to pressure our so called leaders of American to come through with their promise’s and not say we need to understand and trust them. we need results fast. Just as fast as we sent troops to Iraq and Afghanistan on false claims. just as fast as we the People bailed out the Banks. they can and should respond as fast,and help the American People.
well im mixed also …
mixed with light skin and dark skin
I WANT MY $5 DOLLARS BACK!that was funny
@ FGTFJT
Speak the truth.
Love the commentary.
Barack Obama can’t change anyone’s life, all he can do is inspire you to uplift yourselves but the rest is up to the individual..*****ody said that things would magically get better the minute he took office and in my opinion only ignorant ***** nergos or dumb ***** people in general believe that black people are that damn shallow to think that on Jan 22, 2009 the world would be different.
Barack can’t save us but he is hope to a new generation, he’s the product of a sound education, hard work and a black man who is not a stereotype..He proved to the world that a young black man can make it without being a freaking rapper, ball player, entertainer, marrying a white woman, or having 5 baby mammas and a criminal record.
Anonymous3 – the fire sign
idot, some Africans were enslaved in Africa…..whose to say that Baracks ancestors werent enslaved…this guy is an idiot…the reality is this, Barack is a man, he is not a super hero, I don’t look at him as the answer to all of America’s prayers…but he signifies a sign of change in that America has finally gotten over the color of someone’s skin and united in saying regardless of what color he is, he can run our country as good as if not better than anyone else…..
Forget the fact that some Africans were enslaved in Africa. His statement just doesn’t make any sense. Having a slave as an ancestor doesn’t determine whether anyone is black or not. Black people weren’t the only people to be enslaved throughout the annals of history. If one took his statement to bear, then the hundreds of millions of black people living on the continent of Africa who’s ancestors were never enslaved aren’t black people. ***** him and I’ve now decided to end my endorsement of his comic strip. Sorry Huey but your maker is a George W. Bush scale *****hole.
@stefany… no that would be William Alexander Leidesdorff…
I just don’t think McGruder is funny or forward thinking. The Boondocks rests on racial/social cliches.Many of which certainly HAVE NOT been valid in his generation…and his political views sound like recycled garbage from the “Standard White Liberal Playbook”.In his mind-Dr.Condoleeza Rice is’nt “Authentically Black” either.On those occasions when I’ve heard him talk-he comes off as angry & defensive.Like he NEEDS you to see him as part of the intelligentsia/punditocracy.Whatever.
If anyone has ever heard McGruder, he is known for speaking his mind with a grain of sarcasm. He also went ape-***** at a Democratic party function several years back. But if it’s possible for anyone on this site to have an objective mind, you’ll see that he has a point. SMH at the relative intelligence present on these comment sections.
@TJ,
“I’m still waiting on barack black/white or whatever to address issues of concern for the black community; drug laws, education disparities; small business loans; equal oppurtunity employment.”
If I remember correctly, PResident Obama was sworn in as the President of the United States not of the hood. Next!!!!
Maybe Aaron meant that to the effect of people staying conscience of the fact, Obama is mixed so his ideals are more on the mixed issuse. Nonetheless, we are all Americas if we are from here and hell live here… We all have some kind of history that embodies slavery or some mishap from the color scheme. Maybe that’s his point and people took it left feel because his views are so strong. And to the people who say they not watching the show. Don’t we still buy products that aren’t meant for us or made buy people with racist views. Please… Get over yourselves and let us change the world individually from every moment of our lives that we can impact the world. But let’s now be dumb and not reseach our own history that was stolen and hidden.
@tj Why do we as a black people expect our commander and cheif to now go all black and disregard his white, latino, and chinese constituents. His race wasn’t based on color or just helping one particular race of people. His agenda is people helping people and treating everyone equal according to your belief system in America, not your belief that black people now need to be paid special attention, because our president is black. I would hope that his focus is more on the economy and the war during his short stint in office so far.
Dont hate on dude do something to help. There is so much hate in the world its like and ipod everyone gots one. People need to come together but this is AmeriKKKa. Peace
Is he the President, will he ever be the President..So who cares…
Technically – the man aint neva lied.. Barack Obama is NOT a black man.. Now while I don’t agree with is being because “his daddy wasn’t a slave”, it’s common knowledge that this man is bi racial.. Aaron isn’t completely ignorant for callin this man what he is..
@K-Cee,
You must understand that all these negative qualities being displayed here are female qualities and because this is a female site you will get a lot of it. However because so many black men feel this way also, you know it is because of the malignant influences of black females.
Um I used to like this dude. What the hell is he talkin about? well if he wants to be technical O really is “African American” his father is AFRICAN and his mother is american…shoot aint none of my nearby Ancestors actually FROM Africa! They never even been to Africa! So I guess technically I’m not an African American?!?!?!?! And lets not even talk about my mom’s people they are all from Europe! He needs to get a grip! I am as light or lighter than some whites with curly hair…and I CLAIMS AFRICAN AMERICAN! And I know his light asa aint talkin!!
The f-up thing about white America is it doesn’t matter what your ethnic background is because they see black as black, whether you be bircial, 1/4 white with a drop of negroid blood, black is still black to them and that’s how society will treat you, it doesn’t matter if you have the blood of slaves you’re still treated and stereotyed the same.
I agree to a certain extent. Hear me out:
I bleieve he means BLACK in the sence of the struggle that the American Black has dealt with. Yes, you can trace his heritage, but being BLACK is as diverse as Hip Hop.
Now Presidents have and will always be PRE PLANNED. Only certain ppl are allowed to run.
Now Barack winning can mean one of the two: He is a savior, or its all a hoax.
9/11 was caused by the elite that are running things.
When I saw Barack Obama with the two Bush Presidents and Clinton (all of who are supposed to be among the elite group) , It kinda intensified the gut feeling I have.
I don’t know, but PPL PLEASE THINK WELL OUTSIDE THE BOX BECUASE ***** GOING ON EITHER WAY THAT SAYS ALOT ABOUT WHATS TO COME.
*****, GO GET A HAIRCUT!!!! You put shame to african americans period with that fro!!!!!
The only REAL BLACK PERSON is Mrs. Obama and her mom. Its crazy yall, though.
ok so aaeon made two points:
1) the election system is messed up because if a president gets the popular vote, the electoral vote is what elects the president anyways. this is a problem because in 2000 and 2004, gore and kerry had the popular vote, but bush got the electoral vote (along with the help chaeting in florida and ohio).
2) his definition of black is out of line. i disagree with him on that note completely.
I don’t know what the hell he was thinking about when he stated that comment. It doesn’t make sense. I never really like the terms ‘black’ or ‘white’. But to qualify as “black” or african-american means that you are a descendent of africa and you are living in america. Point Blank. Now through black/white racism Barack qualify’s as “black” or african-american because of the backwards minded people that think in racial terms feel that if you are half “black” & half “white” then the black part of you is what you are to be considered as. Outside of what society say’s he is exaclty what he’s a product of: MIXED Half Afro-American Half Caucasian. But in the past the public would’ve rejected him as a president for his Afro-American lineage.
Technically, Aaron is correct. The term black is specifically for people in America that are descendants of the American slave trade. Obama’s father is from Kenya so that is his ethnicity (it probably goes deeper to a tribal level). He is not “black” in the American sense. The problem is the slave trade was wide spread. People in Haiti, Jamaica, Belize, Brazil, et. all, have African blood and ancestry, but they are NOT black as in my definition. As an example, look at baseball players from Latin countries that are as “black” looking as the man next door. They consider themselves Dominican, or wherever they’re from. And they’re right. Socially, Aaron is wrong because Obama has accepted being “black” in America. Therefore, he is as black as next man or woman because he wants to be. As a counter I offer Tiger Woods. Woods has not accepted being “black” and prefers to define his own ethnic persona.
and another thing… this motha *****a better get wit it cause this “non-black” president can put an hold on that cute show of his… real talk. 2009 is CHANGE!!! Why everyone so concentrated on his ethnicity anyway??? Its over and done with, he’s the president!!! STOP *****ING HATING dumb*****, cause if any “real” black person could switch shoes with Obama for one day, they couldn’t do 1/4 of the ***** he doin now.
Black people…always got to hate on the next man. SMH be proud of him!!!!
“@K-Cee,
You must understand that all these negative qualities being displayed here are female qualities and because this is a female site you will get a lot of it. However because so many black men feel this way also, you know it is because of the malignant influences of black females.”
Don’t you ever get tired of blaming the black woman for everything?? WHy don’t hyou take your sorry bitter n!gger ***** somewhere and hang yourself from a tree or something?? Is your *****king d!ck little?? Is that why you’re always up in here *****in and moanin??? Jesus – stupid *****ing n!gger apes like you are the reason I have very little respect for your dumb *****king n!gger males..
And you know I don’t buy the “im a black woman” bull***** so don’t even bring your *****king monkey ***** at me with it!! Grow a set of *****king nuts and man up!!!
he’s not alone in what he’s saying, you guys. it’s not coming out of left field. the 2000 election was a sham. those diebold ballot machines DID hit the street with no paper trail. Barack was raised by an ethnically white family however international their leanings. we DO have to wait and see how his cabinet selections will play out some of which are definitely questionable…clinton and richardson for example. remember richardson HAD to withdraw himself cause of his own shady dealings.
i’m into the obamas and the bidens. it does NOT serve any of us not be discerning and critical just because we’re into them.
Obama is the literal definition of African American. McGruder def lost some points there. He is sounding like Huey combined with Uncle Ruckus from his show. I expected something smarter from him.

“Obama is the literal definition of African American. McGruder def lost some points there. He is sounding like Huey combined with Uncle Ruckus from his show. I expected something smarter from him.”
The statement he made is that Barack Obama is not “black”.. He said nothing about African American.. I’m thinking that with Barack having an African father and American mother – Aaron held the intelligence to know the man is definitely African American and probably moreso than many blacks in this country..
“Obama is the literal definition of African American. McGruder def lost some points there. He is sounding like Huey combined with Uncle Ruckus from his show. I expected something smarter from him.”
Well said!!!
second i’m just going to EDUCATE again… race is a MADE UP TERM MADE BY WHITES….BLACK IS MADE UPPPPP HELLO PEOPLE…IT IS MADE UP MY WHITES…THE DEFINITION OF THE BLACK RACE HAS ALWAYS SINCE THE BEGINNING OF WHITE COLONIZATION PERIODS MEANT SOMEONE WHO IS OF FULL OR PARTIAL AFRICAN HERITAGE EVEN UP TO 1/16th AFRICAN HERITAGE IS STILL TECHNICALLY CALLED BLACK…SO IF U DONT WANT TO CALL OBAMA BLACK…FINE…THAT MEANS THAT U MUST NOT AGREE WITH THE TERM “RACE” WHICH IS TOTALLY FINE! THAT MEANS U HAVE TO STOP CALLIN YOURSELF BLACK TOO OR BUSH WHITE..OR HISPANICS HISPANICS…HOWEVER IF U ARE LOOKIN TO CHANGE THE DEFINITION OF BLACK TO ONLY PEOPLE WHO ARE FULLY BLACK U HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO DO SO…
There is a little bit of misunderstanding of both “African American” and “Black”, as they’ve been used rather interchangeably in the United States for several years.
“African (or American” is anyone with black descendents from Africa; technically, Charlize Theron ISN’T an African American because she does not come from black African descendents, but European “Afrikaner” descent; hence why she is called a “South-African American”. This group is specifically talking about descendents from slaves.
“Black people” are anyone with dark skin, branching from Africa to Asia. This can be anyone with dark skin.
Barack Obama is considered an “Africa-African American” because he is a direct descendent from an African, not a series of slaves in the United States. This term somewhat contradicts “African American” unless you include “descended from slaves”, which is what the majority of African Americans typically agree what that term means.
In the end, it’ll be like this: A couple from France immigrates to America, and becomes a citizens (French immigrants of America). They have children (those children are now French-American, according to U.S standards-because they are from French descent and aren’t direct immigrants). Now put Obama in that situation.
He is a biracial man, just like how Halle Berry is a biracial woman. The change comes in which culture the person identifies himself to be in; both have identified themselves as “African (Black) Americans”, and by the United States and the World, they are Black people. Regardless of your opinion over race, he has clearly established himself as a black man, despite he is biracial. It’s silly for us to argue “what makes you black” and “what doesn’t” because we are opening opportunities for other races to pick at this game as well (“you are “acting white”, etc.) Not only that, but as a race, a culture, and a community in struggle, we need not to pick at racial barriers when we and our ancestors spent years trying to break them; and with your seperative thoughts, you are only contributing to the reconstruction of the “black vs black” and “black vs world” psychological effect that has been in place for decades in our black community.
In short: Grow the ***** up, and we need to grow and come together as a community instead of fighting over what constitutes as “black”. Seriously, my brothers and sisters: WE GOT TO DO BETTER.
@SMDH,
Pyscho, I dont blame black women for everything. Just single black females and the terrible terrible human beings they raise. Unlike you I dont believe in inherent black criminality either male or female.
his show will be finished by next month. Obama will have none of this slick talk in the neighborhood on his watch.
Barack isn’t exactly “black” in the cultural sense, let alone genetically. But that’s a good thing.
Black is Jesse Jackson
Black is Al Sharpton
Black is Barack’s former Pastor
Black is (often) all them pro-black peeps who are all talk, quick to complain everytime someone questions affirmative action, and have little respect for blacks that did not get their education at an HBCU among many other pro-black qualities.
Black is loud and wrong.
Barack is a man that has elevated beyond the color of his skin. Lets let that rest.
People who are black first and humans later didn’t make it to the white house because of their blatant ignorance.
Jesse Jackson made it clear that there’s a big difference between *blacks* and those of us who are colored, ethnic, of african descent, etc. A *Reverend* talking about cutting off his own “brother’s” *****?? Had a white man said it, people would have went to town.
Barack made it. So in that sense, people are right, he isn’t “black”.
He is an educated man who just so happens to be of (half) african descent.
Case closed.
McGruder did not say that Obama is not an “African American” but that he wasn’t black.
When he talks about being the descendant of a slave, he is talking about a slave in the United States.
People are entitled to their own opinion right or wrong. That’s the beauty of this county!
I beleive that the cl*****ification of black or white is a DIVIDE AND CONQUER tactic, just as well as being a Democrat or Republican, when they are the same wing of one eagle…Think outside of the box people..
Like someone else said, these elections are pre-planned..Obama was the winner 2 years before the election even started…Do you really think McLame picked Palin to win? Do you really think he did not know the broad was an idiot before he picked her? Ask questions people..Like a wise man said “those who refuse to indulge in politics will be governed by their inferiors”…
I get what he was trying to say, but from what was printed here he does sound a little ignorant. I have thought about the fact that President Obama’s ancestors were not enslaved by white slave owners in the Americas. I can’t say that President Obama isn’t African American because clearly he is of African descent and he was born in America. At the end of the damn day MY PRESIDENT is still BLACK and I am extremely proud of him and his family!!!
I hear alot of people stating that they disagree with Aaron McGruder and are just saying they disagree with his words. not won yet has said why they support Obama besides because he is African American. for those who all disagree with Aaron McGruder tell me why u support Obama. for example, details of his plan and his staff.
he’s right barack obama is not black he’s biracial he comes from a white woman and a black man not a black woman and a black man barack obama is not black…
4get the “1-drop” bs….
The PRESIDENT identifies HIMSELF as African-American.
He’s on point.
However, it’s not how 1 identifies him/herself racially, it’s how the WORLD identifies u.
If u r still not sure, here’s an easy way 2 tell: try speeding down a dark, country road in “Boondock” Alabama at 3 a.m. Let the feeling in your gut- when u c the flashing blue lights in your rearview mirror – tell u what race u r.
“Please officer, don’t shoot me… not only do I have kids, I’m 23% Scottish, 12% Hindu, with a splish-slash of Irish…”
GTFOOH…
Try hailing a cab in Manhattan after dark.
“Please Mr. Cab Driver, give me a ride. I just got back from the Mediterranean. This is merely a bad-*****ed tan I got… Doctor said I needed a vacation 4 my reverse-vitiligo…”
GTFOOH…
@McGruder you mustn’t try this president. he will not loose and if he does you won’t be around to view it. if your show stays on let that be a warning. fall back fella, he had heads in Kenya doing the circle dance, Ghana, Tanzania, Chad, S. Africa, Niger, you name it. If there is truth to your ideology button up until further notice. hint you won’t be treated fairly
What I am seeing here is that some people don’t seem to understand the term African American
What is the meaning of not being “black in the american sense”
The African in African American is used as an umbrella term for descendants of slaves.If you know the particular african country you are *****ociated with you identify yourself as such.Barack Obamas *****ociation is with Kenya so ideally he is a first generation Kenyan America.In the USA today there are Somalian Americans,Nigerian Americans,Ghana Americans etc.
The main reason why Barack Obama does appear to be different is the simple fact that he DOES NOT focus on Color.
@ CW
You said it pretty much. The whole racial thing is a poison. And until people stop thinking about themselves as black or african american instead of human or better yet…..an individual they really haven’t attained that heightened and liberated state of being. So to the people on here if you are constantly thinking of the world, people, or yourself in racial terms; doesn’t matter if you consider yourself somebody “spittin’ knowledge” please know that you are still inside the BOX with everybody else. Please take a stand and start thinking outside the box.
damn, and to think i gave aaron mcgruder a lot of credit for having a brilliant show. don’t get me wrong, there’s absolutely nothing wrong about being weary of the american political process. history has proven these sentiments to be true many times over. however, making imprecise statements about what blackness is, is idiotic. like obama, my parents are from africa, so according to mcgruder i wouldn’t be considered black. what a f@#king idiot! i’m actually kind of glad he’s showing his *****! dumb n#@&!!
He isn’t black. The one drop rule is racist and repulsive. It is based on the white supremacist idea that any black blood polutes the white blood and therefore negates it.
NEXT THING…. GET OFF THIS PRESIDENT IS BLACK FOOLISHNESS…YES HE IS… WE SHOULD BE PROUD BUT MY PRESIDENT IS AMERICAN! JUST LIKE ME…JUST LIKE YOU… HE IS THERE FOR EVERYONE NOT JUST BLACKS…IM GLAD WE HAVE SOMEONE TO LOOK UP TOO BUT WE OURSELVES HAVE TO GET OFF THE STREETS N IN SCHOOLS OBAMA CANT HELP U THERE…DONT GET ME WRONG I AM SOOOO HAPPY WE HAVE AN AFRICAN AMERICAN PRESIDENT BUT THATS JUST IT…THERE IS STILL BLACKS KILLIN EACH OTHER EVERYDAY, STILL ALOT OF BLACK MEN IN THE STREETS OR IN JAIL…AND MOST OF ALL THERE IS STILL RACISM!!!!!!
When McGruder (and others who have stated this opinion, he is not the first) used “black,” he wasn’t speaking of race. He was speaking of the traditional experience of Blacks in this country, which Michelle has lived, Barack has not. In that sense, her story is more relatable to the general Black American populace and thus her story more rewarding. Not saying Barack’s story isn’t compelling, it most absolutely is…but he grew up in Hawaii (how many Blacks are there), was raised by his White grandparents, and attended prestigious private schools. This is not the traditional experience of most Blacks. So his story is less relatable. That’s all McGruder was trying to posit. All the insults are not really necessary. Jmo
Yes, considering race is a social construct he has been socially constructed as black. He doesnt share the same history of most black americans but he is still black.
One thing President Obama isnt, is a *****h. So yall *****hs shut the hell up.
@tj- I forgot to mention to you that as long as our people are looking for someone else to pull us out of this mess, the longer we will stay in it. I raise my children to believe that they are equal to everyone. I also send them to the best schools available to them. I have them socialize with all races (birthday parties, bar mitzvas, carnivals, girl scouts etc.)to help them understand all races, but yet be proud of who they are. I demand that they do good in school(my wife and I parti*****te in their homework)I give them all of the love that I can, so when they encounter racism they are more than prepared to deal with it from an educated standpoint. If all black people do this, we won’t have the problem of whites attempting to consider us inferior.
Hmmmmm…I thought people were allowed to disagree. So many times throughout Obama’s campaign, I kept hearing you all say “we are not a monolithic group.”
This seems to apply to everyone BUT Obama.
What’s scary about all of these comments is that you feel okay in wanting everyone to think like you. You want everyone to share the same happy thoughts about Obama, and you chastise anyone who disagrees. Sounds like the line of reasoning comes right out of 1930s Germany.
“@SMDH,
Pyscho, I dont blame black women for everything. Just single black females and the terrible terrible human beings they raise. Unlike you I dont believe in inherent black criminality either male or female.”
Whatever you ignorant piece of monkey *****!! Imagine how they would turn out if a few more of your shiftless n!gger boy brethren would stay around and be fathers to them!?!?!? Ignorant *****ing pond s***** like yo ualwasy want to blame a woman who stayed behind and did her job as a parent and probably worked her fingers to the bone to do so while giving a complete p***** to these shiftless baby abandoning *****ing worthless n!gger males out there who are not teaching their sons to be the men of society that they need to be!!
Ignorant *****ing n!gger pieces of *****!!
@ Roe ski Love
Go ahead with you bad self. That’s the way you suppose to raise these youngin’s. Good job.
@Southern L.A. Gal
You have to be an idiot to know that Obama is where he is because of GOD, he will only be used for GOD’s purpose…next…………
@ Redd Tony
very well put.
people need to read and open their minds and think outside of the box.
“The man who reads nothing at all is better educated than the man who reads nothing, but newspapers.”
Moreover…
Just ask Tiger Wood’s “Cablinasian” black ***** how he self-identifies.
Then ask Fuzzy Zoeller. He’ll say “tell that n***** not 2 have fried chicken and collard greens served at the Master’s Dinner.”
He didn’t say egg-foo-yung and won-ton soup.
Ask Kelly Tilghman. She’ll say “the only way 2 beat that n***** on the course is 2 lynch his black *****.”
She didn’t say “the other golfers need 2 step their game up.”
So people can racially self-identify any way they wanna, as the day is long.
The world will also racially identify u, whether u agree with what they label u, or not.
BOYCOTT HIS HIGH YELLA AZZ
This is all in God’s plan, so all of us need to sit back and watch him handle his business….
@ Kemitic Thought
Please tell me why you want us to boycott him ?
i am going by your very well thought out comment.
to lovely1 and ME…..
If obama isn’t black then neither are any of us…black means full or partial african descent boo…FULL or PARTIAL…has nothing to do with one drop or anything.. just simple how its always been defined since they started defining the only race (HUMAN RACE) into little sub-catagories to divide us…
anyways even if race wasn’t defined…if u are black and white aren’t u just that…BLACK and WHITE so what in that makes him not the first black president?… he is the first BLACK president and the 44th WHITE president…
PEOPLE DONT MAKE UR OWN DEFINITIONS FOR WORDS…BE MORE EDUCATED PICK UP A DICTIONARY, ENCYCLOPEDIA OR SOMETHING…
Then ask Fuzzy Zoeller. He’ll say “tell that n***** not 2 have fried chicken and collard greens served at the Master’s Dinner.”
He didn’t say egg-foo-yung and won-ton soup.
Ask Kelly Tilghman. She’ll say “the only way 2 beat that n***** on the course is 2 lynch his black *****.”

You said it pretty much. The whole racial thing is a poison. And until people stop thinking about themselves as black or african american instead of human or better yet…..an individual they really haven’t attained that heightened and liberated state of being. So to the people on here if you are constantly thinking of the world, people, or yourself in racial terms; doesn’t matter if you consider yourself somebody “spittin’ knowledge” please know that you are still inside the BOX with everybody else. Please take a stand and start thinking outside the box.

Tj, ResearchDONE, EddieDollar, This I Know…thank you for your intelligent comments
@ beantownshortie
U ARE SOOOOO RIGHT… what i dont understand is that half asain half white people dont have a problem calling themselves asain..and about 95% of people who identify themselves as Native Americans are mostly of european heritage and they still check the Native American box on the census with NO problem..but when it comes to a black and half white person…everyone including themselves has a problem
sry guys obama is black because being black means u are 100% black 50% black and 25% black…ask the 1/8th black man who got arrested for refusing to go to the back of the bus
I have to ride with
“no names were left”
***** that we DID not make that rule these white supremesist punks did. We adapted to it so don’t go trying to change SHYT now we accepted and ran with it and are doing amazing things. When you look at Barack you see BLACK NOT MIXED. BOTTOM LINE!
You MUST be WHITE or MIXED and need to hold on to something…
One should NEVER deny who they are but majority rules..you dont see me up here talking like I am all these other races because when I look in the mirror I don’t see my mixed genetics I see a BEAUTIFUL BLACK QUEEN. So what a nukka born in China by two black parents does that make him Chinese? Black is Black! And you see what he related more too look at his BLACK ***** WIFE! (He knows what he is)
As far as Aaron he is on my shyt list because when I went to go check his ***** out he showed up 4hrs later and spoke for 5 minutes. Shyt can I have my $30 back???!!
“However, once a black person stops thinking that they’re black, the world has a funny way of reminding you.
Ask O.J.”
AMEN!! And they did a very good job of reminding OJ what color his monkey ***** is!!
I don’t think he’s that far off base with any of his comments. His show explores issues that people take for granted, so why is that much different from him questioning Barack, but hoping that the new president succeeds. I think what he says is more than just an attempt at getting publicity. It’s of my opinion that the Boondocks and McGruder are two separate entities. The show became popular without many even knowing who did the voice-overs.
@ HF
My response falls under that same comment that you replied to. Stand firm in your self and the negative won’t influence you. I have to deal with similar situations as you do, but I don’t let that discourage or pollute my thinking.
I guess all that matters at the end of the day is that obama feels a sense of linked fate with black people, despite his background. That is evidenced by his marrying of a black woman and then having black children.And without a doubt Obama has experienced the stigmas that plague black men .
But what struck me is his comment on how he doesn’t think obama is going to change anything. I admire his willingness to express his dissenting opinion, it’s one that I share. These past two years I have felt alienated by family, friends, and even stranger for not supporting him.But I did vote for him.The only characteristics I had seen him was an effective campaign strategy and charisma, and someone who hadn’t been in politics long enough to have a somewhat tarnished reputation, and simply someone who is still undefined.Then he is black.”Hope” and “change” are pretty lofty goals and also are typical of campaign promises. I am educated enough about the struggles of black people as I studied it in college.To realize the significance of the election but also how history has shown that nothing has ever been easily won. I am politically savvy enough given I have worked in local politics in wa state for four years.Therefore, I am not a one issue voter, I’m very critical. Basically, my opinion has been thoughtfully made. I find so many are willing to attack you but they base their on arguments on one or two things. I felt some relief finally from my mother yesterday after calling her about the inaguration and telling her I wasn’t enthused. She said she was not suprise but she was thankful towards me for reminding her these past two years to ask what has obama done. As she see he starting to flip flop now on some things. A point she made that we all should be weary of is just because he is the first, doesn’t mean he is going to be great!
in case everyone here is caught up in the first black president.
please know that Obama and his economic team are pushing too complete bank rescue plan that can be twinned with the $825 billion stimulus package being negotiated with Congress to alleviate the rapidly deepening financial crisis. why is he wasting his time on bailing out the Banks. the people are the ones who he needs to worry about first. if you dont believe me look it up.those who have the money control the system. our civil right and our national sovereignty is at risk.
If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, 1st by inflation, then by deflation, the banks & corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.”
- Thomas Jefferson 1802
PEOPLE WAKE UP !!!
I should say that there is a high probabality that I’m the one who will be defending him in the coming months because I know the limitations a President can have, given they have to get the backing of congress. So when others ballons start to burst ,I’m going to be the one saying well thats how the political process goes…and what one says during campaigning is a hard thing to maintain once they achieve office.
One important thing to remember is that McGruder is someone who deals in satire and he makes his money by pushing buttons, getting us to think and re-think our points of view . I for one got exactly what I expected from the evening he made me rethink some of my *****umptions… he did what he is best at.
Aaron (isn’t he from Chicago btw) has always spoke greasy about bi-racial people. He makes the mixed girl in his comic sound like a retard cause thats how he views mixed people. So, I expect him to “say” something like that. But, last I checked, Africans were legally slaves, and Black people are socially oppressed… and he better not say, “I’m just joking” like he usually does when he gets put on blast.
and the Prez lived in the hood, you can’t even front on that.
@ ME
Dummy, when you equate God into anything it’s about purpose and mission. Don’t go word playing with me.. Lame.
Damn, I hate to say this to you Aaron, but N*GGA YOU GAY!!!
I am surprised that many people have no idea what the colonialists did in Africa.Colonisation=Slavery. The only difference is that both events took place in different continents.
@ NANA
WHAT DO YOU THINK IS HAPPENING NOW HERE?
@Hannibal….Shut-up!
The system is a sham, we all know this. However, we have to start somewhere and I doubt a white guy in the white house would have changed things too much, certainly not the other candidates (Billary and McSame). So, can we please give President Obama a chance to do some things. It probably won’t be major change but then again look at the types of people he has chosen for his administration. He didn’t show a fear of hiring Black people like a lot of us do!!! The system in this country took years to develop and grow into the evil that it is, so I’d imagine it will take some time to unravel. And while we’re talking about President Obama and what we want him to change, how about some of us starting the change and deprogramming of our own minds. That slavery system did an extreme number on our psyche and we need to focus on getting back to our minds. Until we do, we’ll continue displaying self hate…and what’s worse is when we don’t even recognize we’re doing it. That’s sad Mr. Aaron McGruder. I don’t watch your comic strip and I do respect your opinion, but it has no validity. How ignorant a statement about President Obama not being a Black man. That’s sad coming from another Black man’s mouth. Can we please stop with the hate and just respect and support each other. Every culture supports its own except Black Americans. It’s time guys! Those that speak ill of President Obama, what did they want…McSame or Billary? I mean really, what do you want? It always take a man or woman of color (Ghandi, Mandella, MLK, Malcolm, Harriet Tubman, and countless others) to move this country…and the world…forward. Just like Harriet Tubman said, she would have helped more slaves if they’d known they needed saving…something like that (smile).
FGTFJT RIGHT ON!!! *****s are so blind. You see Mary J, Denzel, Beyonce up in the house and we think we taking over??? PUHmotha*****inLEASE people. Everything they stand and all the money they have collected from Zionist Jews and Christians gone mean absolutely ***** when the empire falls.

@SMDH- Hey Ma, Belated Happy New Year, since I haven;t talked to you for awhile….Saw your pic and started smiling , KNOWING that you going HARD, on Kigali and other black female haters:)
Glad to see you still hanging around and putting your foot down on somebody’s neck…
Stay doing you and I hope to catch you a little later, I have to go back to a thread, where I was gong back and forth with another ignorant black female hater, abuser and who knows what else….
One fine day, we gone have to start a black female empowerment school… (INCORRECT GRAMMAR INTENDED!)
@miss kelly:
I feel you 100%. I was in the same situation as yourself. I alienated many of my friends and family as a result of not supporting Obama. I’m an economist by training so I could *****yze his plans for the economy thoroughly. I just did not and do not feel as if his plans will get this country on track. In fact, I feel as if his plans for the economy will derail it even further. It will create an illusion of success but when reality sets in, it will drive us further into debt as a nation.
@FGTFJT…I totally agree with you. Thank you for your comments.
@touie…you sound like my mom…you are not lying though, gold, seeds, and gun (and land if you are lucky) is the best thing one could EVER invest in.
u black ppl never cease 2 amaze me….full nigg*r half nigg*r quarter nigg*r…african nigg*r, british nigg*r….a nigg*r is a nigg*r… wen we send yall back to africa after Osama o sory Obama F**ks up he’s goin with you…so r the rest of the nigg*rs…half, quater, FULL.. u niggz half 4 yrs to pack up!!!!!!
During the colonial era in kenya(where Obama’s dad comes from)
-the British grabbed the best land from Kenyans and forced them out of their homes.
- Kenyans were not allowed anywhere near the homes of the white settlers not could share resturants,bathrooms or schools,
- Kenyans had to wear heavy identification cards on their necks(they were referred to by the number not by name because they(brits)thought they were not worthy
-Kenyans had to endure forced labor on coffee and tea plantations and had to pay tax to the white govt for working at the farms
- men were not allowed to wear trousers just shorts even during the cold season
-The missionaries told the Africans that they were inferior and so was their religious practices(complex still evident today)
-They were beaten if they resisted any move by the Brits and sometimes the officials would let lose wild dogs on the people
- Kenyans who still lived on their land were not allowed to grow cash crops(tea, coffee)because the colonialists did not want them to make any money
- Kenyans were only taught basic english to enable then to take orders and nothing more
- Women were raped by masters while they worked in the farms because they could get away with it and to ***** of the helpless Kenyan men
There is still a whole lot I have not said and it is the same story in all African countries.
@SMDH,
You just dont get it do you? It isnt enough that these black men “stay around.” These children have to be raised by two parents not a monthly check and weekend fatherhood.
Now, tell these *****es to close their legs until they find a husband. Its very simple. When you start treating black females like they are adults who can make adult decisions you wouldnt have a problem with that advice.
@ Eddie Dollars-
I always learn something NEW from all your posts.I look forward to your posts…Where have you been? You pop in and out, then disappear for months? What’s up with that Eddie? I come to Bossip looking for you and Blaq.
Anybody heard from my brother ,Glok9?
he’s right barack obama is not black he’s biracial he comes from a white woman and a black man not a black woman and a black man barack obama is not black…
___________________________________________________
What’s your point? Most African Americans are not 100% Black or African and come from mixed ancestry. So am I not Black because my great grandmother is White? And if President Obama isn’t Black someone needs to inform ABC, CNN, NBC and the rest of the world because they stay calling him out first African American president.
All I am saying is that Africans can relate to slavery more than any other group of people out there.
@Always knew,
Its a shame that what constitutes going hard on me consist of calling me racial epithets. You black females just love to dance with the devil. You dont have the brain to stand on your own feet so you hide behind SMDH smelly ball sack.
How pathetic.
All this is about power and they have puppets to carry on these schemes.. Trying to go to the One World Order… Then it’s not going to be about American people, just the people in general. Control them and get that chip ready in case these fools want to bang.

“However, once a black person stops thinking that they’re black, the world has a funny way of reminding you.

Yes, but unlike a poor black man accused of killing two white folks, he got off because of his high priced laywers so I guess he wasnt that black.
You need to a lot better than that to keep people so hoeplessly shackled to the tribe.
@ REIGN
You are making this a race issue. Its not about his color or Aaron not standing by his fellow black man. you have to understand that we the people have lost the power. those who have the money control everything. Obama didnt win because all us voted him in. he was put there and for a good reason. you telling me we the people put him there. there is too much money and power for that to be decide by the people. we have waited long enough. just like i said before. just as quick as the GOV. sent troops to Iraq and afgahastean. just as quick as the GOV bailed out the BANKs. why can they act as quick and help the American people? you have to see that there is a bigger plan then CHANGE. the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.

@ Kigali- Did u not understand me, the last time I told your stupid *****, not to address me again? If you don’t want to start some ish, I suggest you keep it moving, otherwise yo must be prepared to do some verbal jarring, tramp…
***** your opinion and you, too..Everything that comes out of your fngers, is negative and I;m waiting for you to join the Stormfront….
I disagree with some of what he said, but that doesn’t make him any less talented. Boondocks is the business. I was just watching the Home Alone episode on my Ipod a few minutes ago before my supervisor walked up behind me and scared me back to working (which only lasted a minute because now I’m on Bossip…).
dont worry everyone…obama might not be black today…but trust and believe if he makes one mistake they gonna give him RIIIIIGHT back to us…funny how things change when a black man becomes president

@Kilchicken*****head-
WHAT HAPPENED? NO RESPONSE?
I’m out and on out and to the next thread…
@SMDH,
“Ignorant *****ing pond s***** like yo ualwasy want to blame a woman who stayed behind and did her job as a parent and probably worked her fingers to the bone to do so while giving a complete p***** to these shiftless baby abandoning *****ing worthless n!gger males out there who are not teaching their sons to be the men of society that they need to be!!”
Ha. Is that why these same females who work their fingers to the bone have children that achieve the least at school, most likely to exhibit anti social behavior, more likely to go to prison, suffer the most abuse from THEIR MOTHERS, are over represented in the foster care system (atleast in California) arent graduating from high school, and then, go on to repreat the life pattersn of her oh so hard working single black mother?
Lets just face reality SMDH, black females, for the past 30 havent dont ***** for their children. They didnt bother to give them fathers. They just made babies with random men. They incrased their chances of going to prison, raised them in completely multi generational poverty.
Is that what your monkey ***** calls hard working?
I mean ***** the school system done gave up on your sons and now more and more of them are being cl*****ified as retarded just because they cant do anything with them.
Black females have been the worst parents in all of American history. Now it is time for your buckethead ***** *****es to find husbands because its DAM obvious you cant raise them by yourself.
Oh and it isnt enough that the man steps up. He needs to be in the home. So do like Michelle Obama and find a *****ing husband.
Man shut the ***** up Bossip!!! All Aaron was probably trying to say is not to expect a miracle because now we have someone other than a cracker in office. This country was built on bull***** and it’s going to take patience to get this ***** cleaned up. Michelle Obama, as well as Barack are the future…stop being Willie Lynched peoples because The Boondocks is a GREAT show!!!
i truly believe that the bulk of our attention should remain more on policy and less on debating ideas about race labels and ethnicity.
seriously, you guys….to be distracted by who calls themselves what is to ignore the systematic progress needed to make this administration everything that it could be and should be held accountable for declaring to us all.
for example clarence thomas is black….and a fat load of good its done us. the content of his character as reflected in his decisions on the bench sucks. he supported antonin scalia and the bush administration blindly.
consider capital punishment.
we see what bush did with that in texas… he killed more black men without proper dna evidence than any other elected official in history.
barack supports capital punishment.i am much more interested in the content of obama’s ideology, most of which i appreciate because most of it makes sense to me. not all of it, most of it.
he self identifies as a black man and has experienced the world outside of his mother’s family as such. i am satisfied with that.
lets move on and upwards.
yeah, he frequently gets put out of speaking engagements…i can’t believe he really said that!!! *lol*
Mock Rock Star is taking over- “Man shut the ***** up Bossip!!! All Aaron was probably trying to say is not to expect a miracle because now we have someone other than a cracker in office.

I think that you are 100% correct. Best thought post, on this thread…
And what a shame that you black *****es in here would deny black children a nuclear family because you guys are either too undesireable for marriage and too *****ing irresponsible with your bodies to find a man willing to make a commitment to you *****es.
The most unmarriageable women on God’s green earth is settling for broken homes and blames everyone else, especially black men, for her personal problems and her children’s inability to function in society.
Now ask yourselves black females, why dont these black men want to marry you. Well there are two MAJOR reasons.
First, they were raised by your *****. They never saw anyone commit to you in any real way. They saw man after man up and leave you. They saw their aunties in the same position. These black men dont know about commitment because they were raised in your poisonous environment.
Secondly, the men that are interested in marriage cant stand what you females have become. If Bossip is indicative of the types of black females that are out there, I wouldnt blame them for not touching you guys with a ten foot pole or treating you guys like recreational sex toys.

dont worry everyone…obama might not be black today…but trust and believe if he makes one mistake they gonna give him RIIIIIGHT back to us…
_______________________________________________
That sums it all up right there.
And lets let the cat out of the bag. We all know you females get pregnant on purpose because THAT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN KEEP THESE MEN IN YOUR LIVES. We know that you know that these men arent commiting to you so the next best thing is being a permanent baby momma in his life.
What a shame.

The banks already have bailout money aside.. Barack Obama is pushing for his “main street” bailout.. Damn, why can’t you *****king haters know what your talking about before you start typing?!?!
hes keepin it real… and he is true in what he says… obama is african american.. he is a first generation black person or african american… and his kids are second generation….
and i believe he has said it himself that he is a mutt of many backgrounds where as michelle obama is a of slave descent..
what is wrong with what the boondocks dude said? the 2000 election was a terrible sham and a conspiracy.. and as a black person that lady should be enraged over that more than what he said.. black people were discriminated against in florida…and deprived of their right.. not only did none of the representatives or the senators stand up, no one contested the election… even though it was a huge offence and violation of law…

I think that what he was trying to say is that, yes, barack obama is african-american, and yet his experiences are different from those of us who have multiple generations in the U.S. He is not less than any of us, but his differences and how the world views him as the son of a recent immigrant may differ greatly than how the world views those of us who have been in this country for multiple generations, and also the possibility of how the world views those of us who are also from generations of poverty.
I just think he didn’t make his point in a clearer fashion.

If worthless shiftless n!gger monkey males set bette rexamples instead of tearing apart the community with rap and *****ing utter ignorance, perhaps these young boys would have something to look up to instead of more negativity and worthlessness.. Yeah she works her fingers to the bone.. What do you sorry ***** shiftless pieces of swamp ape ***** do for your kids or communities besides destroy them?!?!
“Lets just face reality SMDH, black females, for the past 30 havent dont ***** for their children.”
And the n!Gger monkey men do?? Is that why they abandon them more often than not?? Is that why the n!gger boy holds a 65% chance of abandoning his kids whil – when you combine all other races of men who abandon their children the percentage is down at 28%?? You sorry apes make up 6% of this *****ing country and 65% of the fathers who will abandon their kids.. Try again *****less.. It’s still not working!!
“They didnt bother to give them fathers. They just made babies with random men.”
Yeah ok.. They were making babies with the men they were with.. The n!gger boy just doesn’t have the MANHOOD to step up and do his part!! If you *****ing n!gger males don’t want to care for these kids then why not use a condom??
“They incrased their chances of going to prison, raised them in completely multi generational poverty.”
No – the sorry ***** n!gger daddy did that!! Even when you *****ing n!ggers don’t want to be fathers you still make the white man take over your check to MAKE you help financially (thank God for the white mans rule)… Even if you’re too *****ing sorry to be in the childs life, atleast support it without the white man taking your checks to make you do it!! Jesus – how the ***** did we get to the point that the white man would care more about black kids being taken care of financially then you useless *****ing swamp apes would?!?!
“I mean ***** the school system done gave up on your sons and now more and more of them are being cl*****ified as retarded just because they cant do anything with them.”
“Black females have been the worst parents in all of American history. Now it is time for your buckethead ***** *****es to find husbands because its DAM obvious you cant raise them by yourself.”
Again – she’s done a better job than you sorry piece of ape ***** have!! LOL at you calling the black woman a bad parent when the *****ing n!gger boy will abandon his child like trash!! What has the n!gger male done for black children over the past 30 years?? What has he done, really?? I’ll wait for your ignorant monke y***** to think of a response to that one – you sorry piece of dog *****!!
“Oh and it isnt enough that the man steps up. He needs to be in the home.’
Statement like this just further let me know the type of n!gger bitter ignorance I am dealing with and it actually makes me pity your sorry ***** smelling ape *****!!! If you are a dumb enough *****ing N!gger to make the statement that a man has to be I nthe home with his children in order to be a good father it just makes me happy the black woman is the strength and backbone of this race and not you *****ing monkeys!! Whatever you want to say about us we take a lickin and keep on tickin.. You *****ing weak bitter complaining ***** *****ing coon males are as soft as a sneaker full of puppy *****!!
What is the issue here? The ENTIRE WORLD IS CALLING HIM THE FIRST AFRICAN-AMERICAN. Because BARACK OBAMA S-E-L-F I-D-E-N-T-I-F-I-E-D HIMSELF!!
He may not have historical ties to slavery but he was raised in America and with his skin tone I am sure he has felt the pressure of racism and prejudice. Being looked down upon has nothing to do with lineage. Feeling like you don’t belong in this country has nothing to do with being Bi-racial…racist and prejudice people don’t ask your lineage they JUDGE!
Many of us don’t even know our own individual history to cast stones. Slavery is written and do*****ented all Barack had to do was READ A DAMN BOOK AND LIVE LIFE TO KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO BE AFRICAN AMERICAN.
what a dumb thing to say, Hes not black because hes a not a descendant of a slave? id like to kno if he knows which part of africa he is from? to ME thats not being black
And what a shame that you black *****es in here would deny black children a nuclear family because you guys are either too undesireable for marriage and too *****ing irresponsible with your bodies to find a man willing to make a commitment to you *****es.
The most unmarriageable women on God’s green earth is settling for broken homes and blames everyone else, especially black men, for her personal problems and her children’s inability to function in society.
Now ask yourselves black females, why dont these black men want to marry you. Well there are two MAJOR reasons.
First, they were raised by your *****. They never saw anyone commit to you in any real way. They saw man after man up and leave you. They saw their aunties in the same position. These black men dont know about commitment because they were raised in your poisonous environment.
Secondly, the men that are interested in marriage cant stand what you females have become. If Bossip is indicative of the types of black females that are out there, I wouldnt blame them for not touching you guys with a ten foot pole or treating you guys like recreational sex toys.”
More poor me n!gger banter!! Marquis aka Kigali – NOONE IS GOING TO PITY YOU FOR BEING A WORTHLESS *****ING N!GGER!! I know why your monkey ***** is unemployed and alone!! What woman or employer would want to put up with your constant whining. .Listen dog, its not our fault you watched your mama suck ***** in order to feed you little *****s!! It’s not our fault that sucking on a gl***** ***** was more important to her than tucking you in at night!! Its not our fault you were raised in the projects!! Its not our fault that as a result of your mama not being *****, you’re not *****!! Stop whining and man up and better yourself!! Stop being a ***** ***** *****ing n!gger who sits back and waits for a woman to do it for you!!
***** ***** n!gger!!
“And lets let the cat out of the bag. We all know you females get pregnant on purpose because THAT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN KEEP THESE MEN IN YOUR LIVES. We know that you know that these men arent commiting to you so the next best thing is being a permanent baby momma in his life.
What a shame.”
LOL now you’re just getting desperate!! Sistas having babies, as any stat will show you, does not keep a sorry ***** n!gger male around!! If it did then you worthless *****ing monkeys would not have a 65% recprd of abandoning your kids, now would you – you dumb son of a *****!! LOL – grow some *****ing nuts you goat smelling ape *****!!!
Kigali (Is working with a full clip of IDEAS)
@Mocj Rock Star,
No, the Obama campaign, David Axelrod, and Howard Dean’s 50 state strategy did it. All you guys did was buy Obama t-shirts.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I usually don’t talk too crazy to U, but I WAS part of the Obama campaign so eat a *****!!! We’re all connect!!!
Barack has only been in office for one day so this Boondocks guy does not know what the future holds, unless he is a psychic.

Judging by your past vulgar and educated comments you sound like a very intelligent girl.
I’m an artist too so I respect brutha man’s skills but it does seem he tend to stay stuck on being controversial for controversy’s sake.
“@Always knew,
How does it feel to hide behind others’ saggy *****? How does it smell? Why not come out for some fresh air. Youre a big girl arent you?”
Well I’ll tell you this.. She appears to be more woman than your ***** *****got ***** is a man!!!
Alwasy Knew:
Don’t fall for this *****.. This is one of thosed weak ***** *****ing n!Ggers who like to target sistas like you!! They like to target the sista who will sit here and go back and forth with his sorry n!gger ***** defending herself and her brethren thereby giving him the constant attention he so desperately seeks… He has no use for a ***** like me who will put a *****ing bitter ***** n!gger male in his place… That’s why he wants you to go back and forth with im instead of teaming with me!! Weak ***** *****es like him can’t handle real talk like mine!! I’m willing to bet this weak sorry ***** coon ***** has a white girl at home who he stands over and talks down to all night long!! Weak little n!gger *****es like him need that!!
Stay strong girl!!
Truly an ignorant statement from an ignorant “black” man. What African-american bloodline is 100% black. M*****a raped and breeded slaves on the regular so NO AFRICAN-AMERICAN bloodline is pure. So Africans born in Africa are what? White? Asian?
Mr.Aaron McGruder, i define you as a NIGG@, while i see true blackness in Obama
“@ SMDH aka SEXY CHOCOLATE SYRUP SAUCE

“Judging by your past vulgar and educated comments you sound like a very intelligent girl.”
If you don’t like the way I respond to ignorant ***** self hating weak black woman bashing *****ing apes then I would suggest you leave Bossip because I will climb on my *****ing soapbox whenever I choose to!! Bossip appears to have no issues with it and neither do I!! If you do then I suggest you step!!
He is right… Even though I’m on board and happy we have a Black president, these are facts brothers and sisters and we need to realize it. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
@SMDH,
Sorry but there are more employed black men than black females. Lets just get that cleared and eventhough there are more black females with university degrees, black men are still earning more. Just the advantages of being a man with upper body strenght. Buts lets get down to the real issues.
Black men repeat what they see in their environment. Thanks to the evironment that the black female has created, interestingly enough in places where black men arent even allowed THE PROJECTS, you can see in full view what the black female can achieve without the black man. Nothing.
So we have established that she cant raise children by herself. We have established that when alone her children go on to repeat her same pathologies- the man becomes an absent father (though this doesnt bar him from being coveted by black females) and her daughters becomes a baby momma.
Why oh why with these kinds of patterns in the black community does the black female not chose somethind different? Why does she like to APE mommy and become a baby mother if her and only her are the more thoughtful ones in the community?
You gotta answer me this, why is it that a black man who has already demonstrated that he is a bad father is still able to procreate with these awesomely responsible and hard working black females?
@SMDH,
If I had a white woman it would be more than what black females have. Arent 60-70% of them single?
Must be because they are so strong and men are just way too weak to deal with them.
Some of you posters are so ignorant its sad. Thats right, keep coming on Bossip and posting that dumb ***** you would never say in a black woman/man’s face, and while you at it stop claiming black, we don’t need your filthy, dumb *****es claiming black.
@Stefany- “Yep!
And ask Charles Barkley big mouth ***** a well, he got too comfortable parading around with his white women telling Mr. White officer he’s speeding to get go get a blow from his blond.”

KRS USED TO SAY IT BEST…LOVE IS GONNA GET U…”
You don’t know how happy I am to see this *****ing coon being brought down!! Did that dumb *****ing ape really think those white cops were going to think it was cute that he had a white ***** in his car about to give him a blow job?? Agreed – thats what happens when these overenflated ego having coons are shown that they are black and always will be!! Now this dumb *****ing n!gger always wants to get o na soap box about how the black male is being treated in America but look at him! he’s one of those *****ing n!ggers who don’t deserve anything good!! I am so happy TNT fired his monkey ***** and I hope everyone else follows!! I just bet his wife and daughter are so proud!!
And lets take a good look at this.. Coons like Kigali alka Marquis de Sade alwasy want to talk about a sista and what she isn’t doing right to keep her man.. Well what wasnt Charles Barkleys – among others – wif enot doing right?!? Why can’t they seem to stay true to their white women if they got with them because we were so disrespectful?? Why aren’t they being faithful good men to their white women either?!?!
Its just goes to show that the n!gger male is his own biggest problem and no matter how hard you try you can’t run from yourself!!
@SMDH,
We now all know how bad for the black child the black females is. We know that a black man/woman raised by two parents has the same criminality and anti social behavior as the white man/woman who is raised by two parents. Its only when these black men/women are raised by the single black female that they turn into societys problems. See there is no inherent criminality in the black man. He is a product of the poisonous environment of the black female. We know she abuses her children, we know neglects them, we know she subjects them to a cycle of poverty, we know she turns the housing projects built solely for her and her children into the worst areas of the city.
Now that we know quite literally the root of the problem and the bad tree that grows from this root what are we to do?
Holy psychosomatic schizophrenic tirade batman!

“please know that Obama and his economic team are pushing too complete bank rescue plan that can be twinned with the $825 billion stimulus package being negotiated with Congress to alleviate the rapidly deepening financial crisis. why is he wasting his time on bailing out the Banks. the people are the ones who he needs to worry about first. if you dont believe me look it up.those who have the money control the system. our civil right and our national sovereignty is at risk.”
The banks already have bailout money aside.. Barack Obama is pushing for his “main street” bailout.. Damn, why can’t you *****king haters know what your talking about before you start typing?!?!
this is my comment!
nothing you have said has nothing to do with what this article is about. what are you like 16 yrs old?
@Shuck and Jivin,
The generational damage the single black female and her family has caused to the black community is quite literally in our faces. Because everyone is so afraid of the black female and her rage, we arent allowed to diagnose the problem and come up with any solutions.
She keeps repeating ad naseum, its the black man. He needs to step up, he needs to be there for his kids. What the ***** does she mean by that? All she is admiting when she says that is, yeah, I *****ed up by getting pregnant while not married and now I have this baby and the father has to visit me more often so my kids dont become felons.
This is how shallow the black female is even when she is a “mother.” She is too stupid it even know what role the father is supposed to play. We know that the “father stepping up” has more to do with the relationship she has with him and not the relationship he may have with his children. One she is quite arbitrary about when she can use those children against the father.
@SMDH,
“Sorry but there are more employed black men than black females. Lets just get that cleared and eventhough there are more black females with university degrees, black men are still earning more. Just the advantages of being a man with upper body strenght. Buts lets get down to the real issues. ‘
Try again you dumb *****ing n!gger!! Black males aren’t even employable in majpr cities…If a major sity isn’t employing their monkey *****es the smaller ones likely aren’t either! The black woman has always been more employable than you uneducated ignorant *****ing coon and you know it!! Now your REALLY desperate saying stupid ***** like that!! How the ***** did she become the breadwinner of her race if your *****ing monkeys are so well employed?!? Try again, ape!!
“Black men repeat what they see in their environment. Thanks to the evironment that the black female has created, interestingly enough in places where black men arent even allowed THE PROJECTS, you can see in full view what the black female can achieve without the black man. Nothing.”
LOL!! If the black woman can’t acheve anything without the black male then how is she doing it now?? How is she more educated, more employable along with being the head of household and breadwinner: all things that men tend to be in all other races?!??!
“So we have established that she cant raise children by herself.”
She does it all the time!! What has been established is the n!gger male is a sorry baby abandioning piece of ***** that can’t do anything but go to jail. spread STD and kill off his own in record numbers..
“We have established that when alone her children go on to repeat her same pathologies- the man becomes an absent father (though this doesnt bar him from being coveted by black females) and her daughters becomes a baby momma.”
All the more reason for you sorry ***** *****ing coons to start being fathers to your children.. If I’m so wrong then why is everyone saying it to you now – EVEN BLACK MEN?!?! Even black men such as Bill Cosby and Barack Obama are telling you coons whats up!!
“Why oh why with these kinds of patterns in the black community does the black female not chose somethind different?’
WHy doesn’t the n!gger male CHOOSe to be a father to his children?!?!
“Why does she like to APE mommy and become a baby mother if her and only her are the more thoughtful ones in the community?”
I blame that on younger sistas who can be taken in by a sorry ***** *****ing n!ggers lies.. I would say that once n!gger males stop targeting our younger sistas – for they know an older one will see right through their *****ing lyuing ***** bull***** – it will subside!!
“You gotta answer me this, why is it that a black man who has already demonstrated that he is a bad father is still able to procreate with these awesomely responsible and hard working black females?”
Sorry n!ggerboy but I don’t see where you are getting hard working black females.. I see you desperate *****ing n!ggers latching onto young girls that you can lie to and take advantage of!! In my *****essment its the well rounded educated sistas who are turning their backs on you sorry *****ing n!ggers in record numbers!!! A project ***** does not a hard working sista make!! Stop looking for your *****es in the ghetto!! Seek out of your project tentament and you’ll be surpised what you wil lfind!! However if you are a sorry ***** useless monkey looking for a good sista to carry you I suggest you go back to white *****es!!
@ SEXY CHOCOLATE SYRUP SAUCE
i would love to put something big, black and thick in your mouth just to keep your a$$ quiet
oh and by the way. look it up. he is pushing for more bailout money for the Banks not YOU.
so please tell me since you know so much about Obama and your government, please tell me what the “main stream bailout contains and what it will mean for Americans.
go ahead and look it up on Google. i doubt it if you know.
The man is either ignorant or just trying to remain relevant. However, he has a point about Barack not being “like him,” if he, McGruder, is an American Black. Barack, although clearly Black, has a different lineage. His ancestors may not have gone through the suffering and degradation that American Blacks have gone through in the past centuries. I will give him the benefit of the doubt and *****ume that is what he meant to say. Either way, though, Barack is a person of color and he should be supported by all people of color. Now is not the time to nitpick about where the boat may have picked up or dropped ancestor off our ancestor. The point being, that we were/still are on the same boat. Congrats to Barack. May he be safe and I hope that he accomplishes even 10% of what he has said he will.
“@SMDH,
If I had a white woman it would be more than what black females have. Arent 60-70% of them single?
Must be because they are so strong and men are just way too weak to deal with them. ”
No thats some more of “everyone wants the black males *****” bull*****!! Does it ever cross you arrogant *****s minds that maybe sistas just don’t want you!??! Do yo uever stop to think that in an attemot to avoid the shiftless n!gger male and his utter sorriness that she CHOOSEs to be alone?!?! Alot of sistas today know that they can do bad alone!! They don’t need some shigftless pond s***** coon ***** hanging off their coattails becuase he’s too *****ing weak and useless to get his own!! Just as weak little *****less n!ggers like you claim to be done with sistas you’ll never understadn the grasp of the number of sistas who are sick of dealing with you.. You’re not all that!! The average n!gger male can’t even put food on his table alone let alone even be interested in if his kids eat that night!! You are not all that!! You’re not even “that”..
Kigali, you can go on and on about the black female all you want but I’m a black female, entering my early twenties, in college, doing what I have to do, no kids! My ex best friend who is hispanic is everything you would describe as a “black female trait” matter of fact, in my area, its the white girls getting pregnant by black men….around my way most black girls are like me! Again, it takes two…black men should learn how to keep their *****s in their pants and black women should close their legs. Black men should stay in their children life regardless what the mom has to say, and black woman should stop being so defensive..okay I get it but don’t STUPIDLY blame it on only black women (yes, that is what you are doing regardless what excuse you come up with) Instead of typing bull***** on Bossip all day, go help these black women do better since you have such a decisive plan…
Whatever I’m done with this black women black men bull*****…
Oh and btw the white girls that are with these black men and get pregnant (in my area) are left in the dust just as you claim black women are…the black men ARE NOT in their lifes…so what does that tell you? Black men and women do better!
oh and by the way. look it up. he is pushing for more bailout money for the Banks not YOU.
so please tell me since you know so much about Obama and your government, please tell me what the “main stream bailout contains and what it will mean for Americans.
go ahead and look it up on Google. i doubt it if you know.
First of all you can bend between your *****ing legs and suck yoru own *****. .I don’t have to explain a *****ing thing to you or look anything up to appease you!!.
Second anyone who has been behind this man and his campaign since day one KNOWS what his goals are with the stimulus packages and who they are geared to.. The Banks got 700 billion in October and he is now working on a stimulus package for the middle cl*****.. Carry your hating ***** on!!
@SMDH,
Youre an idiot. You telling me that when Detroit were making cars they were employing a bunch of black females? I am not talking about jobs at WalMart and I talking about jobs that pay a salary I am talking about jobs that are traditional male dominated, high paying where you dont need a degree. Black females cant get these jobs. Black females can only get these low paying service sector jobs which explains why you guys are so *****ing poor and stay in the hood.
Black females are making the decision to have children while not being married. You ever suggested to them that they shoud wear condoms? Why are they so allergic to them? Why in the face of all these socalled shiftless men, do they CONTINUE to get caught up? They most be the dumbest chicks in the world.
So now it is the younger girls who are the causes of all these problems? Really? So all the black females over 25 have got their ***** together and not giving these shiftless black men any *****? You have got to be kidding me. You keep moving the goal post SMDH. Everythig I say you got some new sub-group to blame.
How about black females take some agency of their bodies and not have children with low qaulity men?
How about they use protection. Female condoms do exist. If you say they working so hard, making all the money, than surely they can afford to go down to the clininc and learn how to use birth control.
I think Michelle Obama is showing you females in what order it needs to be done. Education, Marriage, than the carriage. How about you females try that on for size.
“Oh and btw the white girls that are with these black men and get pregnant (in my area) are left in the dust just as you claim black women are…the black men ARE NOT in their lifes…so what does that tell you? Black men and women do better!”
AMEN!! I was just talking to someone on AllHipHop about that yesterday!!We was talking about how even Baraack Obama’s daddy abandoned him like its not even just an American thing.. Black males have baby abandoning issues on all continents it would appear – though its much greater here!! You’d be suprised at the number of white women out there raising thei rlittle biracial babies alone because its not just a black female thing!! Black males abandon children PERIOD because they are *****ing weak ***** selfish males who don’t care about anything but themselves!!
Bump all that. I just want to know when the 3rd Season of Boondocks is coming out. Otherwise… NEXT—>
Well I guess the 1st black Atty General of the USA, Eric Holder, ain’t black either? His parents are from the Caribbean.
Eric H. Holder, Jr. was born in the The Bronx borough of New York City, to parents with roots in Barbados; Holder’s father, Eric Himpton Holder, Sr. (1905 – 1970) was born in Saint Joseph, Barbados, arrived in the United States at the age of 11. He later became a real estate broker. His mother, Miriam, was born in New Jersey, while his maternal grandparents were immigrants from Saint Philip, Barbados
@Shuckin and Jivin,
Sorry but stupid doesnt have a color but black females tend to be the dumbest. That white females are doing the same ***** black females doesnt disprove my point. How hard it is to practice safe sex? Women get pregnant not men. As has been said on this topic, logic would dictate that if you are the one that risks pregnancy you should be more interested in protecting yourself. But ofcouse in the topsy turvy world of the black female everyone else is responsible for keeping her child and disease free. Its never her responsibility.
Please dont give me no ***** about black men keeping it in their pants. Men are going to be men. You have your legs open, they are going to go in their.
“The generational damage the single black female and her family has caused to the black community is quite literally in our faces. Because everyone is so afraid of the black female and her rage, we arent allowed to diagnose the problem and come up with any solutions. ”
And what damage has the child abandoning crime filled n!gger male caused?!?!?
“She keeps repeating ad naseum, its the black man. He needs to step up, he needs to be there for his kids. What the ***** does she mean by that? All she is admiting when she says that is, yeah, I *****ed up by getting pregnant while not married and now I have this baby and the father has to visit me more often so my kids dont become felons.”
As long as these able bodies *****ing n!ggers keep abandoning their children while the mother stays behind and tries to play BOTH roles thye n!gger male will continue to be blamed!! And the n!gger male isn’t visiting the mother!! He is RAISING his children!! Thats the problem with your shiftless pieces of ***** now!! You tell yourselves its ok to abandon your kids beuase you are not with the mother!! Do you know how many men of other nationalities and races still manage to raise their kids even when he and the other are through?? You always want to compare a sista to a white woman!! Why can’t you *****ing n!gger males do what all other races of men do just fine?? What’s wrong with you?!?
But thats right were talking about other races of men!!
“This is how shallow the black female is even when she is a “mother.” She is too stupid it even know what role the father is supposed to play.”
No – ignorant *****ing ***** smelling ape coons like you don’t knwo what a father should be becuase if you did you wouldn’t have the highest number of child abandonments in the countr ythough your shiftless sorry *****es are only 6% of the country!! Notice how its not 65% of black mothers abandoning their babies?!?
We know that the “father stepping up” has more to do with the relationship she has with him and not the relationship he may have with his children.”
Why is the n!gger male the only person who feels this way?? WHen it comes to a white man – even if he has to take his ex to court: even if he has ot set up a court liason: even if he has to bite the bullet adn deal with her only when necessary – HE STILL MAINTAINS HIS FATHERHOOD RESPONSIBILITIES!! Why can’t the n!gger male do this??!
“One she is quite arbitrary about when she can use those children against the father.’
Man get the ***** on with this bull*****!! DUmb *****ing n!gger!!
@Shuckin and Jivin,
If you dont want black men to abandon their children, then need to be raised in environments where that kind of thing isnt accepted of them. At present being raised in these broken homes raised entirely by black females, children will go on to repeat what they saw in the home. It starts with the parents and if they only have one who happens to, in general, be the most derelict and reckless (the black female) what do you expect the man to become?
Those same white and hispanic females you talking about, well they are raising the next generation of absentee fathers. If they would have just found husband, we wouldnt be having these conversations.
.
@SMDH,
***** doesnt exist in a vacuum. All these white men you are talking about were married to the mother of their children. You arent talking about the situation that most black females SUBJECT themselves to and that is by getting pregnant by men they were never married to.
We all know a man who was once married to the mother of his children is more likely to be in his childs life. We all know that the man who was never married to the mother of his children is less likely to be in his child’s life. Why the ***** are you comparing divorced white men to the men black females so irresponsibly haphazardly make babies with. Not thinking of the future, just thinking of that emotional, I need some love in my life ***** that turned into a baby? You are forgetting the pyschology of women and sex you *****ing moron.
Black females want black men to stay around, they need to create the environments where this ***** exist and they can see it everyday. THey need to stop this serial baby momma ***** that they love so much. People are by and large a product of their environments.
“@ SEXY CHOCOLATE SYRUP SAUCE
i would love to put something big, black and thick in your mouth just to keep your a$$ quiet”
You *****ing n!Gger males love talking about your *****s and what your gonna do with them, huh?!? If only you’d talk about staying out of jail, getting a job and keeping it or being good fathers to your children as much!!
@KIGALI
—-I KNOW A WHITE WOMEN WHO HAS 8 CHILDREN BY 6 DIFFERENT MEN. SHE HAS NEVER BEEN WIFED AND 5 OF HER EIGHT CHILDREN ARE BI-RACIAL. SO WHAT DO YOU THINK OF HER I AM JUST CURIOUS?—-
@Shuckin and Jivin,
Since you are in college do you routinely try to undermine a proposition by stating that because those arent your personal cir*****stances, than such a proposition is false? You should consider taking an introductory cl***** to philosophy because it is quite obvious that your skills in rhetoric are weak.
@PhatDJ,
I dont respond to people who type in caps. You are not being ingnored when you type like everyone else and for your friend I would say she was just as much of an idiot as 70% of black females who chose to make families without husbands.
You ever hear a black man say because there are white men in prison, its ok to be in prison? Only the retarded black female would try to justify the ugliest and most destructive of ***** by claiming its ok because white women do it too.
AND NO NOT ALL CHILDREN REPEAT THEIR NEGATIVE CHILDHOODS LOOK AT KESHA COLES IS SHE SMOKIN CRACK LIKE HER CRACKHEAD MOM NO SHE IS MAKIN THAT PAPER HER MOM MAY HAVE NEVER HAD A JOB IN HER LIFE BUT SHE DID NOT REPEAT
Don’t like the Boondocks and now I really don’t like him. This isn’t the first time he’s said some off the wall stuff. It’s ok to be critical of the president i.e. Tavis Smiley, his action should be held accountable as any president. But he should be at least given the chance to institute some policy before the hate begins.
The biggest issue would be his comments on Barack’s race. He’s black. He’s biracial. He’s African American. He’s president. What he isn’t is a descendant of slaves. Which incidentally, isn’t a requirement for being black. There were a number of blacks who weren’t slaves and didn’t come by way of slave boat.
Aaron may be right though on a philosophical level, seeing as Barack isn’t weighed down by the slave mentality that seems to have shackled mr. McGruders mind.
You ever hear a black man say because there are white men in prison, its ok to be in prison? Only the retarded black female would try to justify the ugliest and most destructive of ***** by claiming its ok because white women do it too.
Actually n!gger ***** boy, the point I made by bringing up white women was to show its not just a thing where n!gger males abandon their black children.. Its to show that across racial female lines n!gger males STILL can’t manage to be good fathers totheir children.. Now are you saying white women are driiving n!gger males away too?!?!
AND NO NOT ALL CHILDREN REPEAT THEIR NEGATIVE CHILDHOODS LOOK AT KESHA COLES IS SHE SMOKIN CRACK LIKE HER CRACKHEAD MOM NO SHE IS MAKIN THAT PAPER HER MOM MAY HAVE NEVER HAD A JOB IN HER LIFE BUT SHE DID NOT REPEAT
No she’s not but n!gger males lack the drive to want ti better than their parents had it.. They lack the drive to say I was raised without my daddy I’mma make sure my babies never go through that!! They’re too *****ing selfish to care about antyhing but themselves and their *****s!! A black girl is more likely to not repeat her bad upbringing than a n!gger male is!!
Did you really just type “Men are going to be men”? LOL I was just talkin about this…Kigali you are really *****ed in the head. SMH. You blame everything on black women, I’m thinking you aren’t a woman after all. I’m thinking you are either a white woman or a black man trying to stir up some drama…if you are really a black woman and believe the stuff you type I will pray for you. Stop studying coonology and open your mind. A man doesn’t HAVE to think with his *****, its these women that accepts his excuses…if all women white or black would leave a man the FIRST time he cheated, men would be as faithful and loyal as dogs…but because we give them so much chances and options, ofcourse they will ***** anything with a tight (or loose) hole. Now as for black females being the dumbest, again, I disagree…I cannot tell you how many smart intelligent black women I have met, do not like Bossip daily wtf files fool you, black women are on the rise, yes NOT ALL OF US ARE ON THE RIGHT TRACK AND NO NONE OF US ARE PERFECT but we are definitely doing a lot better than you allow to think we are. But again, I’m done with this black men/women ***** I just came back because “Men will be men” is the dumbest thing you have ever wrote (and trust me I read Bossip’s comments daily)
@SMDH,
Tell the black female to practice birthcontrol while she is unmarried. Then when she gets married to can have as many children as she would like and I am certainly that she will not be abandoned.
Now go and ***** yourself. Your done!!!!!
“I’m thinking you aren’t a woman after all. ”
Kigali is a *****ing n!gger male!! On a good day you’ll find his n!gger ***** ***** ***** up in here posting as Marquis De Sade.. He is a man – or should I say male because to call Marquis (sorry) Kigali a man is an insult to a man!!
“@SMDH,
Tell the black female to practice birthcontrol while she is unmarried. Then when she gets married to can have as many children as she would like and I am certainly that she will not be abandoned.”
They will be abandoned until the n!gger male stops being selfish enough to put himself and his ***** over his children!!
“Now go and ***** yourself. Your done!!!!!”
No – go ***** your mother!! You have giotten punked in your bitter *****got ***** yet again!! I’d say YOU’RE DONE, boy!!
And all before I have to go to my workstudy job!! I just love it when a plan comes to gether!!! Bye n!gger *****!! I’ll be back after work!!
@KIGALI
Well I understand what you mean by the all caps thing. I never heard black men say it was ok because either he is ashamed or to busy complaining about not recieveing a fair sentence in which most of the time i agree but 70% where are you getting your numbers?
@Shuckin and Jivin,
And it is your refusal to believe that men and women arent the same that gets you females in trouble. Men and women are different. We may be equal before the law but it doesnt mean we are the same.
Every society except for the ones that have been damaged by feminism knows this. Keep living your life as if men and women are held to the same standard, men and women can exchanged gender roles, think the same, behave the same, have the same motivations and needs as one another and I *****ure you that you will never understand, let alone be able to please and keep a man.
Stop trying to turn men into females. They arent females. We treat sex and sexuality different.
@Shuckin and Jivin,
Since you are in college do you routinely try to undermine a proposition by stating that because those arent your personal cir*****stances, than such a proposition is false? You should consider taking an introductory cl***** to philosophy because it is quite obvious that your skills in rhetoric are weak
——————
No, Kigali, you take a philosophy cl*****. I have never ever seen somebody stereotype a group of people like you do (besides the KKK)…I have seen comments by you basically wishing death on (all) black females, what kind of *****ery is that? You have some deep issues, brotha/sista/whatever you are…you are lost and have so much hate in your heart. I’m sorry that one black female RUINED your life and you come on websites that don’t show black women in the best light but you really need to get your head out of the gutter and realize there is bad YET good in every race/group…
@Shuck and Jiving,
And maybe just maybe if you had a father you would know this.
@PhatDJ,
Check the US census of 2004 on non-marital births.
“Every society except for the ones that have been damaged by feminism knows this. Keep living your life as if men and women are held to the same standard, men and women can exchanged gender roles, think the same, behave the same, have the same motivations and needs as one another and I *****ure you that you will never understand, let alone be able to please and keep a man.

LOL at this comical *****ing n!gger!! The day you shiftless *****ing n!gger stand up and start acting like men will be the day a black woman doesn’t have to play that role! You *****ing *****es have the black woman out here trying to play mother and father, breadwinner and stay at home mom.. What’s left for his whiney ***** ***** to do but play the role of a female.. Dating some of you selfish *****es is like dating your child!! MAN THE ***** UP and a woman won’t have to be a man for you!!
Kigali, arguing with you is like arguing with a rock, its a waste of time…you don’t consider anything person say. I used to be one of those woman that blamed everything on a man but I changed my ways and my views and saw that infront of me was a two way street. I wish that one day your mind will progess and you will stop blaming every problem on black women…thats such a ignorant way of thinking…
@Shuckin and Jivin,
I am a black woman and yes I have expirienced the things that I hate most about black females. I have seen how they have these negative combative attitudes. I have seen how they abuse their children out in public, cussing them out, and calling them *****s. I have seen black females get pregnant by men who they knew wasnt being fathers to their other children. So yes, I have issues with black females but unlike innocent black children, I can get as far far away from them as I can.
“No, Kigali, you take a philosophy cl*****. I have never ever seen somebody stereotype a group of people like you do (besides the KKK)…I have seen comments by you basically wishing death on (all) black females, what kind of *****ery is that?

Well thats what happens when one watches their mother suck ***** for dinner every night and even then crack often won out over pork and beans!!!! The issue comes in because the *****ing ape refuses to see we are not all his junkie ***** sucking mama!!
dont tell me you are a tistics slave because it is designed to f*ck you up
MUST READ:
CONGRATS TO OBAMA AND YES WE MADE HISTORY, BUT ALL YOU MUTH*****AZ ESPECIALLY US BLACKS BETTER WAKE THE ***** UP. THIS ***** IS ALL NEW WORLD ORDER, BILDERBERG, DNA CODED. IT’S ALL CODED IN THE BIBLE, RELIGIOUS FOLKS LEARN HOW TO INTERPRET YOUR BIBLE NOT READ IT. THIS MIGHT SOUND STUPID TO MOST WITH SHALLOW MINDS BUT THE NEW SO CALLED PLANET X THAT ASTRONOMERS FOUND, THE SUMERIANS AND EGYPTIANS CALLED IT NIBIRU, THE HOLY BIBLE CALLS IT WORMWOOD IN THE REVELATIONS. IT’S A *****IN COMET AND IT’S HEADED OUR WAY. DEC 12, 2012 PRECESSION OF THE EQUINOXES, LAST DAY OF THIS AGE OF MAN. WAKE THE ***** UP BLACK FOLKS, WHY YOU THINK THEY WAITED THIS LONG TO GIVE US A CHANCE, CUZ TIME IS LIMITED. AIN’T NO REBOUND FOR THE ECONOMY, AIN’T NO PLANS FOR THE FUTURE.
BILDERBERG AND NATO KNOWS THIS!
@SMDH,
Yes and despite all that you say its still raining devalued black ***** on black men. LOL. It doesnt much to get your females does it?
@ Kigali, LOL Everybody has a father so whats your point? Naw my father wasn’t around by CHOICE. My mother didn’t run him out, he told me over the phone he didn’t want anything to do with me…and that was at a young age. From there, my mother raised me, no she wasn’t perfect but she fed me, put clothes on my back and a roof over my head. Because of my mother, I graduated from high school and was able to go to college not because of my selfish ***** black father. F.Y.I., don’t even blame it on my grandmother (on my dad side) because my dad was raised by his mother and father and he still walked out on me.
Ok, I’m back…Damn, ya’ll tried to really take out
AWWWWWWWWWWWSHADDAAAAAAAP!!!!
Holy psychosomatic schizophrenic tirade batman!

A+ for originality and correct timing!:)
@ Kigali- I get tired of this..We are debating stats and the acceptance of our own, continually stirring up hatred, vitriol and false reflections of what black women are supposed to be about. The generalizations anger me…Your patronizing tone, incites the most decent part of me…I can’t see your standpoints, because ALL of them in reference to the black female are ALWAYS NEGATIVE! I am a black, somewhat educated female ( I don’t possess
a doctorate yet,that’s why I say somewhat)..I don’t feel the need to subjugate my brothers and sisters, in that manner..Hell, the only reason I even brought up Sir Charles, because you, Kigali are always praising the black man for leaving his black woman. According to you, we are not desirable, not educated, wild, loose, wild, pro-creating, overweight, weave wearing black women with no morals, sense of responsiblity or intelligence…
What black female in her right mind, would agree with that? I don’t even know what that is about..I mean my family for example, is made up of all the different shades, variations and different idealogies…
Some are extremely well off..Some are not..3 are millionaires, in their own right (not born into it), some have been on welfare, some have doctorates, estates, PHD’s, vast amounts of acreage, some rent or have next to nothing, some have top brand name vehicles, some don’t own a car, or may have a hooptie, some are married and some are not, some have children within their marriage, some have children out of wedlock… some may be light, damn near white, some may be black as night…My point: THEY ARE STILL ALL MY FAMILY. AND JUST BECAUSE I HAVEN’T BEEN ON WELFARE, DOESN’T MEAN, THAT THEIR WORTH IS ANY LESS. JUST BECAUSE SOME ONE HAS HAD CHALLENGES AND ISSUES IN THEIR LIVES, DOESN;T MEAN YOU GET TO PLAY JUDGE AND RELEGATE YOUR DOGMA/ OPINIONS ONTO THAT PERSON. THE VERY FACT THAT YOU GO INTO ‘ATTACK’ MODE, WHEN YOU FEEL ‘SUPERIOR’ TO THOSE AROUND YOU….NEXT, IT’S THE USE OF BIG WORDS, SO THAT PEOPLE CAN KNOW THAT YOU BEEN TO COMMUNITY COLLEGE OR SUPPOSEDLY ‘LEARNED’….YOU TALK ABOUT SMDH BUT YET, YOU YOURSELF USE LANGUAGE UNPROFOUNDLY UNBECOMING OF A FEMALE OR EVEN YOUR OWN DEFINITION OF WHAT A BLACK FEMALE SHOULD BE..I ADMIT, I TOO, HAVE TAKEN PART..BUT I HAVE SEEN POSTS BY YOU,** WAVING AND GANG-SIGNING TO SYDNEY** I LIKE SYDNEY. THE WHOLE POINT BEING, YOU EXHIBIT THE BEHAVIOUR THAT YOU CLAIM TO DESPISE. YET, IT’S OK TO PATRONIZE, AND BE CONDESCENDING TO BLACK WOMEN…
I;M SORRY, THERE IS WORK THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE, BUT MY DEAR YOU MAKE NO EXCEPTION FOR ANY PROGRESS THAT HAS BEE MADE..AND YEAH, BLACK FEMALES HAVE BEEN KIND OF LACKING SOME RESPONSIBLITY (IN THE LAST GENERATION)..MAYBE THEY ARE TIRED OF HOLDING IT ALL TOGETHER, SO THAT TODAY’S AMERICAN BLACK MALE CAN LEAVE HER ABANDONED WITH KIDS, WHETHER THEY ARE MARRIED OR NOT, SHE HAS TO FIGURE IT OUT..WHAT ABOUT THE DAYS BEFORE GOVERNMENT *****ISTED CHILD SUPPORT?? BLACK WOMEN RAISED THOSE FAMILIES, OUR FAMILIES. HARRIET TUBMAN WAS A BLACK WOMAN, SOUJOURNER TRUTH, THERE ARE TONS OF BLACK WOMEN WHO MAKE IT POSSIBLE EVERYDAY, FOR THE SUCCESS OF THEIR FAMILIES AND CHILDREN…I’M FROM A STRONG BLACK FAMIILY WHERE THE BLACK MALE HAS ALWAYS PLAYED BEEN THE HEAD OF OUR HOUSEHOLD AND HAS A SIGNIFICANT ROLE IN HIS CHILDREN’S LIVES, I CAN’T IMAGINE, TOO MANY OTHER FAMILIES, BEING THAT DIFFERENT…WITH YOUR CONVERSATION, YOU KILL PEOPLES’ ABILITY TO CONNECT WITH OTHERS WHO MAY BE DIFFERENT OR WANT BETTER, TO MOVE UPWARD. I WOULD LIKE TO END THIS ‘WILLIE LYNCH’ TYPE THINKING -DIVISION, BETWEEN THE HAVES AND HAVE-NOTS…IT’S COMPLETELY UNFAIR OF YOU TO GENERALIZE AND PUT US ALL IN THE BASKET. WE ARE NOT MONOLITHIC. WE ARE THE SAME AND YET, VERY DIFFERENT. IF IT IS NOT FOR THE BLACK FEMALE, THE BLACK MALE CANNOT CONTINUE…WHY DON’T YOU ACCEPT THIS AND MOVE ON..I’M TRED OF LISTENING TO YOUR TIRADES AND *****ESSMENTS…MICHELLE LOOKED ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS, LAST NIGHT! SHE’S A BLACK WOMAN, A LAWYER AT THAT, THAT CAM FROM THE SOUTH SIDE OF CHICAGO, THEY WEREN;T RICH, BUT SHE’S A MILLIONAIRE,IN HER OWN RIGHT SO IS BARACK, IN HIS OWN RIGHT, THEY ARE BOTH SUCCESSFUL AND THERE IS NO REASON TO KEEP TRYING TO MAKE US ACCEPT ONE TYPE OF FEMALE, AS A SPOKESMODEL FOR THE BLACK FEMALE..SHE IS ONE OF MANY, BLACK FEMALES WHO WORK AND CARE FOR THEIR FAMILIES EVERYDAY…SO QUIT TRYING TO TEAR US DOWN!!
ALL THIS COLOR, RACE, AND DOWNGRADING OTHERS ON A CONSISTENT BASIS IS REALLY UNSETTLING..AND YOU START IT EACH AND EVERY POST…THERE IS NO POSITIVITY WITH YOU..JUST UNATTRACTIVE INSIDE AND OUT…PLEASE LEAVE ME BE…I DON’T HIDE UNDER ANYONE’S *****S, ARE YOU MAD BECAUSE I ‘AM NOT HIDING UNDER YOURS’? I HAVE MY OWN BRAIN, AND AM CAPABLE OF EXPRESSING MYSELF IN WHATEVER, TERMS, MANNER, I SEE FIT..THIS IS MY LAST INTELLIGENT POST,(**PLEASE NOTE: I DID NOT CALL YOU OUT OF YOUR NAME, ONCE, I DID NOT DISRESPECT YOU.

@SMDH- I DON’T CARE WHAT “IT/ KIGALI” OR ANYONE ELSE THINKS, IF I AGREE, I AGREE, IF I DON’T, THEN I DON’T, KIGALI-(IS NOT WRAPPED TOO TIGHT)…MY MOM USED TO TELL ME NOT TO MAKE FUN OF ‘RETARDED PEOPLE’…I’M STILL TRYING TO FOLLOW HER ADVICE AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, ALTHOUGH SOMETIMES IT IS DIFFICULT, WITH THESE SO-CALLED ‘BOUGIE-EDUCATED’

Kigali is not a woman.. Kigali is a poster named Marquid De Sade.. He has *****ed up and not changed his e-mail making his gravatar string show up matching Marquis de Sades.. I have busted them and point this out before.. If I could remember the thread then I would link you up to it – but otehrs on here saw when I pointed it out.. We had a whole discussion about it!! For the most part everyone here is on an “IGNORE MARQUIS” kick so this is the identity he uses when he wants people to respond to him so he can get that attention he so desperately seeks!!
Pretty desperate, huh?!?!
Well thats what happens when one watches their mother suck ***** for dinner every night and even then crack often won out over pork and beans!!!! The issue comes in because the *****ing ape refuses to see we are not all his junkie ***** sucking mama!!

Just look at some of the crusty wet ***** white *****es running around with these n!gger celebs today?!?! You really mean Reggie Bush couldn’t do better than a wet as ***** sucking white ***** whose been p*****ed around by just about every n!gger in Tinseltown?!?!
Mcgruder needs to hit college again. it’s not slavery that makes one black. and even if it was,being an african (born n bred),i can *****ure you Obama’s still black.slavery existed before the “slave triangle” was formed (britain-africa-usa/carribean)……..SMH at his ignorance.
@KIGALI
dude you are not a female
“Wow, thanks for the head up! I’m mad I’ve been wasting my time arguing with him/her/it…LOL”
You sure have..
I have to run to my workstudy job and I don’t post in here from there, however, once I am back at my apartment I am going to do my best to find this thread and post the link for you.. I’m not promising you anything because it was some time about when this happened – perhaps even over the Summer if I’m correct – but I will do my best.. I know the threads I tend to frequent so I will do my best to find it for you.. But I reiterate there are others up in here who saw me point it out!!
I’ll get back at cha!!
@Shuckin and Jivin,
Dont get caught up in this gravitar bull*****. ANyway what difference does it make? Does it invalidate anything that I say? No. you are just trying to use those lies to wiggle out having to defend yourself and bull*****.

@SMDH aka sexy chocolate syrup sauce
no one coulda said it better. its all about playing the game at your level…gotta have base limits,..you find what you look for.
@SMDH,
So now you have come full circle. Its back to Kim Kardashian your *****ing nemesis. Why the hell do you get so bat ***** crazy when she comes up? What is this obsession you have with her? You couldnt wait to bring her up could you? Is she your screen saver? Do you have her tattoed on your neck?
Whatever happened to the gravatar of that lightskinned girl you had? Whats with the squirrel looking check you have had for so long?
6am Ho was supposed to tell us where you get all your gravies you try to p***** off as yourself but he never got around to doing it. LOL.
@Marquis de Sade-
You are on here quie abit. I KNOW that you hate all black women. You are still insignificant. You can change your gravie and handle, you are still an unhappy, miserable, black woman hating, old ***** (like 40-50s+)shell of a man…unhappy with your lot in life…Stew in your own ish, please…And Redd Tony stated that Kigali works for Bossip, and is on here solely to espoue hatred and to get their gossip threads, full, so they can be the hottest site…We need to find a new ‘black-owned website,to back…
You are a f*cking idiot. Although your comic strip is on point, your television series SUCKS!!!!!
You really aren’t qualified to speak on Barack.

WOW!!! i like the BOONS…
I agree with the fact that Obama is a first generation son of an immigrant. He was raised by a white women and has accepted Christianity as his religion. Hawaii was stolen from the native people of Hawaii long after slaves built the foundation of America…..I don’t believe any African Americans whose ancestry can be traced to slavery ever had a relative picking sugar cane in Hawaii. I believe that was what they used to natives to do. His upbringing was in a part of the US that is dramatically different from the ghettos that were created to keep the freed slaves in contained areas. I’m sure the public education system in Hawaii is much better than those of the previously segragated south. Did he grow up having the “African American” experience…. who knows? But to say he best represents African Americans is a disservice to those who have had to overcome the intentional hardships put upon their Grandparents, Great Grandparents, and Great Great Grandparents. IMO Barack represents those children of recent immigrants such as Mexicans,Sudanese,Ecuadoreans and any non European ethnic group. Who would of thought that the President of the United States would one day have have an illegal immigrant aunt and a poor brother in Nigera. Si se puede!!!! FYI African American is just as disrespectful as being called Latino or Hispanic, my ancestors were in the Americas long before the first Christians stepped foot in the americas. It didn’t take long to destroy our cultures and give us new names like Mexicans to make us the foreigners in our own ancestral homelands.
This is a lily white run country. Period. Ain’t a damn thing going to change.
I think we should start to die out by not breeding. It is almost over anyway for this country. 3000 years ago King tut never imagined he’d go from a child king to a damn mummy in a *****ing art museum. Take a cue from history. We are next!
SOMETIMES THE MESSENGER GETS HURT
All McGruder is saying is that Politicians are un-trustworthy. I am a bit shocked he took it to this level, because I knew for sure he would write the President into a character… oh well. All I know is, I voted for Barack Obama…. who the hell did he vote for?
I look at it this way… Aaron is Aaron, and Obama is Obama. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but they’re two men to me. I could care less about the race factor. One is a cartoonist, the other the President, but all in all, just another man to me.
So basically according to McGruder, the overwhelming majority of Sub-Sahara Africa is not black? I mean since most of their ancestors weren’t slaves, right? There’s a HUGE hole in his logic on determining who is and isn’t black. I didn’t expect such a thoughtless comment to come from him. Maybe it was just for attention but it wasn’t an intelligent statement. I can’t believe that Desmond Tutu, Patrice Lumumba, and Nelson Mandela aren’t black.
Barack Obama ain’t gonna change *****!
We’re still going to have:
1. The Federal Reserve
2. Income Tax
3. Property Tax
4. HUGE GOVERNMENT
5. WARS
Lets see.
And this is why I suggested that black females needed arranged marraiges. Its obvious that they cant discern between good men and bad men. They are the only species of being who will get impregnated by Adolf Hitler, Attila the Hun, Jeffery Dahmer, and Charles Manson and become surprised and right indignant that these men prove to be bad fathers. So since she isnt adult or smart enough to chose high qaulity mates, she needs to have them chosen for her.
Its as simple as that.
who cares what Obama background is, he represents himself as a black man and he’s married to a black woman, we should be proud of that.
@DONT BE FOOLED PEOPLE
Is it his fault? and chill Bush made it hard let the man go in the office and do his job
I am proud of BarryO {Barack Obama}
Sorry guys…it’s true.
I am African and I know I am not the descendant of slaves and the same goes for Obama.
It’s impolitic to bring it up but its true.
MJ
This young man must be of some type of drug. He does not know his own history.
woo wee…i just came back to see if the conversation had progressed anywhere productive. this thread has devolved into a weird caustic pool of hate mongering.
yikes…SMDH chocolate whatever and kigali full of whatever….y’all might consider therapy somewhere along your journey. sorry for whatever happened to you. i hope you grow past it.
dag!
just yuck.
This young man must be on some type of drug. He does not know his own history.
he will come around one day………..
he just hateing but at the same time i cant be mad at him cause of his show boon docks he be *****g BLACK MEN THAT SELL OUT UGLY DARK ***** BLACK MAN IS DISS ALL DARK SKIN SELL OUT BLACK MEN THAT IS WHAT YALL ARE he sames gay black men i love him for thatttttttttttt he sames black men all are wortless no good colored men who need to be hung. i let obama go buat the rest of you monkey men need to burn right in hell
I like and admire Barack but I also am skeptical of our government. There has been so much negativity, dishonesty and manipulation for so long that I can’t help but be weary. I don’t agree with everything that McGruder said but there is no need to get mad at anyone just because he didn’t say what you wanted him to. He is entitled to his opinion so let him have one whether you agree with him or not.
I wouldn’t agree with his statements about Obama and his race however I beleieve it more to his staement than those words. People take so many things out of context. He could have simply meant Michelle wouldn’t have orders to follow from any part of the gov’t which shows the strength of her color. She wouldn’t go that far. Just b/c ur president doesn’t mean that you’re in control gov’t policies, issues etc. of this country; it’s a group of ppl who make these decisions. As president, it just means you’re the person to relay the message to the country. As far as the rest of the article I would have to agree.
That’s the kinda of negativity that’s going to keep this nation down…. ol’ boy must not have seen Barack’s speech…Obama laid it all out there for us….but he’s right, Obama is not going to change anything unless we all get to work and help…. the whole message of Barack’s campaigne was “yes WE can” not “yes I can”…seriously ppl this man is offering every thing to us and if we don’t keep the hope we had to get him into the office then he’ll be leaving the office….sooner than we thought!….PPl he can’t do it alone!
I TOLD YOU SILLY NIGGRZ THIS 2WEEKS AGO I THINK THIS BROTHER READ MY BLOG …NO HE DID READ MY BLOG CUZ I SAID YESTERDAY IN A OBAMA BLOG THAT MICHELLE AND HER MOMMA WAS THE ONLY JOY I FELT YESTERDAY,IM NOT GOING TO KEEP GIVING YOU NIGGRZ MY INFO …I NEED TO GET PAID FOR MY WISDOM THANKS TO THE GRAND CREATOR AND HIS HOST AND CHILDREN…..I WILL GIVE THIS CAT(OBAMA) TIL THE END OF THE WEEK BEFORE I START ATTACKING YOU BUNCH OF AZZ KISSING NIGGRZ!!!!

Aaron McGruder is correct! Barack Obama is not black. His mother is white. Whatever birth c***** you came through is what you are. His father being an African does not hold water. He does not have the same experience as a person who is black living in America.
@ SMDH HA! GURL YOU NEED SOME ***** IN THE WORST WAY….I GOT THAT GAS MONEY SUGAR LET ME KNOW WHEN I COULD DRIVE UP TO BC AND ***** ALL THAT ANGRY OUT YOUR SEXY AZZ!!!…IF THATZ YOU IN THAT PIC!!!WHEW WEE!!!
HE DONT HAVE NO SLAVE BLOOD, HE DONT FEEL YOUR PAIN!!! ….SIMPLE!!!
@ AARON MCGRUDER, NIGGR I KNOW YOU READ MY BLOG YESTERDAY GIVE A NIGGR SOME CREDIT ON YOUR BOONDOCK CARTOONZ MY NIGGR!!! YEAH READ THIS ONE TOO!!!
Oh God!!!
Black is about social experience. Obama IDENTIFIES as Black because his social experience has been one of a Black person.
You don’t have to have a traditional Black American experience to be Black!!!! There is a Black Diaspora you know,which encomp*****es anyone of African descent living the Black experience around the world, and yes that includes Hawaii!!!
Aaron McGruder is bitter and it’s become more evident to me. He has a problem with his Blackness and wishes it were something different. He’s mystified by someone like Obama who knows that you can be Black and still be at ease in your own skin. That Black in this day and age doesn’t mean constant struggle and degradation.
Very interesting.
What is the definition of black? What are Africans? Are Africans black? Because he has african decendent, like his father.
We all have a mixed breed in us, and have a trace of african blood that makes us black.
They say when you meet someone in person its always a disappoint and this doofs comments proves that. Realistically, before Borack creates one law or holds one press conference, he has created change in so many ways other than politically. Less than a 100 years ago all black folks could do was serve in the white house…what is this called…change. He has changed not only the perception of what black folks had of them selves but the worlds perception. He has changed the perception of what black love is. That is change without p*****ing one law. Had it not been for those known leaders and those unknown silent heroes, he couldn’t even think of running for president. So far as his ethnicity goes…lets just say he is white…lets just all go to saying he is a white man. I wonder why his grandparents had such a hard time with him since he isn’t black. I wonder why the media wouldn’t let go of the fact that he was black…since he is a white man. Its because here you cant simply say you are white when you have the features of a black person. Half of my family looks the same way he does. How did they get that way….because a white person and an african had children..period.
@THE WORLD’S ENDING
Yes, so true.
I mentioned that earlier…
Technically he’s right. While certainly blacks were enslaved in many parts of the world, the US black experience is quite different. Obama did not grow up with any of the struggles of your average black american. He lived mostly with his white grandmother and was educated at the most elite school in Hawaii before moving on to Occidental and Harvard. Certainly, as a black man in America he has dealt with some racism but it’s a different experience than most. I know b/c I gew up like him and while I can empathize I don’t really know the experience most black people talk about.
BLK IS NOT A RACE SILLY!!! OBAMA DONT HAVE YOUR ANCESTORS BLOOD RUNNING IN HIM THATZ WHY HE WAS CHOSEN BY REPUBLICANZ AND DEMOCRATZ HE CAN EASILY IGNORE YOU CUZ HE DONT FEEL YOU ..YES HE IS AFRICAN AMERICAN …IM NOT, IM A ISRAELITE OF THE TRIBE OF GAD,AND MOST YOU NEGROES WHO WENT THRU THAT SLAVE BOAT P*****AGE ARE THE TRUE ISRAELITES OBAMA KNOWS WHO WE ARE, AND WE ARE NOT AFRICANZ …JESUS TOLD THE JEWS AND THE 2 REMAINING TRIBES TO FLEE UNTO EGYPT AND MINGLE AMONG THEM ..CUZ THE ROMANZ WOULD KNOW THE DIFFERENCE!!!AFRICANZ AND ARABZ OTHER DARK NATIONZ WITH BLK SKIN SOLD US OUT!!!
WTF! Is this idiot retarded? I know his sell-out-fake-*****-hating-his-own-people-hiding-behind satirical black cartoon ***** ain’t talking smack! I can see now that he is just as ignorant as that old black field negro character in his comic strip (his true alter ego). And they had the nerve to allow him to speak on MLK day. What is wrong with that picture? Where in the hell does he think slaves originated from?????? President Obama is more black than his probably 8 times removed from his original heritage *****. Obama’s African half of his heritage is direct – a direct descendant of an African. *****ody gives a ***** if his mama white. God bless her soul, she gave us our first African American President! McGruder needs to put his head up his ***** and figure things out and stop being a sell out. He worse than Tiger Woods *****!

Please see statement below from Aaron McGruder re: your article on his appearance at Earlham College:
For a long time now, I have tried to keep my opinions on the election and Barack Obama to myself. I occasionally do speaking engagements, which are not open to the press, and unfortunately some of my comments have been twisted around in a silly manner. The claim that I *****erted our new President was not Black is categorically false.
I have seen an endless stream of Black pundits on TV pontificating about the significance of President Obama’s election – many of them making reference to the 3/5th’s clause in the constitution regarding slaves. The point I was making is that this is not an accurate comparison. Barack is the son of an immigrant, not the descendant of slaves. It’s like comparing a half-Japanese man to the oppressed Chinese who built the American railroads. Yes, they are both Asian, but it is not an honest or accurate comparison. We all share the common experiences of being Black in America today – we do not all share a common history. A history that in part makes us who we are – and in some cases (as with the psychological damage that still lingers from slavery) holds us back. These are not, I believe, insignificant distinctions.
I did say I was cautiously pessimistic about Obama’s Presidency – but this is simply acknowledging the reality of an American Empire that is out of control and on the verge of collapse. Let us not forget that on the eve of the election, we witnessed a near trillion dollar robbery of the US treasury. That robbery is still taking place. I do not blame President Obama, but I do not believe the financial and corporate interests that own and control this country will fold so easily. I do not question the integrity of the man as much as the power of his office – which I believe has greatly diminished over the years. I believe the Federal Reserve Bank, the Military Industrial Complex, and the m*****ive corporate interests that run this country have more power than our new President. I hope I am wrong.
After 9/11, I witnessed most of this country become obsessed with squashing dissent and silencing critics. I hope this election does not turn Black America towards this same, fascist mind state; but already I am starting to see it, and it saddens me greatly. I absolutely wish our new President and his family success and safety. But after all I have witnessed in my lifetime, and especially in the last eight years, I am not ready to lay down my skepticism or my outrage for this government. To do so would be unwise and, ironically enough, anti-American.

YALL NIGGRZ ARE SO DUMB ITZ A *****KING SHAME!!! MAN DO SOME RESEARCH THEN CALL NAMES ……SOME OF YOU NIGGRZ NEED KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM TO UNDERSTAND WHAT IS BEING SAID!
i dont see what the problems are with his comments. everyone has an opinion. many more feel the same way Mcgruder does. they are just afraid of saying it because its not the status quo answer. blacks are not going to hold barrack accountable because he is black. we need to admit our view of barrack is jaded and we wont get the results we seek if we dont hold him accountable like we would a white president.
think about it
***** Yall White *****z! *****z!
@ kigali and SMDH
So what have we learned between your arguments. N!gger men are no good, ***** their woman and leave the woman with the kid. They run around and put their seed into everything with a ***** and leave the woman to deal with it. They dont want any part of a relationship with their “Baby Mamma”. The cant get a decent job to help pay for the kid. They leave the kid with the woman, no man in the kids life, the little niglet runs wild with no disciplinarian in the household. Later going on to become rejects of society, prison, gangbanging or killing other niglets. The cycle repeats itself. On black woman, they want to get pregnant so they can keep a man in their life or to collect welfare. Atleast they can get money off the “should have been aborted baby”. They dont keep their legs closed, and will open them up to any n!gger with a chain and some fake diamonds. They cant run a household, dont want to work, and pump out babies like thats their job.They are also fat but consider themselves thick like its a good thing.
Thanks guys, everything my father has been telling me about you n!ggers was true. Thanks for the confirmation. and yes I am white! yay Obama our first mulatto president..cant wait for all that change..maybe he can change you n!gger woman and men to act like civilized people instead of the savages you really are.
BOYCOTT HIS SHOW!
***** HIS ARROGANT *****!!!!!!!!!!
[...] by *****ociate professor James Logan. Mixing political opinion and satire is hard to do in comics and cartoons, he said. “It’s not having a statement, it’s entertaining people so they [...]
To anyone here who said that they were “fans” of Aaron MacGruder before he made these remarks must never have watched or read his cartoon or seen him speak in interviews before. Aaron McGruder has always been edgy in his outspokenness. Didn’t he call Condi Rice a war criminal to her face at the NAACP award a while back? His comics have been censored or banned for a wide variety of issue. Where is the surprise?
Its amazing at a time like this a black man is not ashamed to voice such ignorance!! His show speaks to sterotypes and the bull***** that some in the black community get away with! The reality is there are more *****holes than there are men like Colin Powell, Hill Harper, Dr. Cornell West and President Obama, but allow us the bask in the amazingness of men like these and not *****holes like you Mr. McGruder!
@ Don’t be fooled
Don’t be an *****! In order for America to survive there will always be taxation, and as long as the world exists there will always be war!
HE IS ONE MAN! With the desire, determination and now the vehicle to change somethings to make your country better! You cynicism is a duly noted however!
WHEN ITZ ALL SAID AND DONE YOU DUMB *****Z WILL BE THANKING THIS MAN MCGRUDER THAT HE MADE YOU THINK OUT THE BOX ….IM ALREADY THERE ALSO I DONT FOLLOW WHAT YOU NIGGRZ FOLLOW..YOU HAVE A HISTORY OF GOING ASTRAY ANYWAY LIKE A SHEEP TO SLAUGHTER MARK MY WORDZ GLOK NEVER LIES!!!!!!!
What does anyone expect for Aaron. The only thing I find suspect is he said during the primary that he was going to vote for Obama. He said then though that he didn’t think anything was going to change. He’s within his right to say that. Complaining about him not being from American slaves is a bit silly. I’m sure Barack has lived the black experience while living in the US.
He has the right just like any of us to voice his opinions but Aaron, along with many other people, need to realize that change does not happen over night. It will take years for things to really change but at least President Obama is willing to step up and lead that change. His racial background has nothing to do with any damn thing.
HE NOT GOING TO CHANGE ***** FOR YOU NIGGRZ FOR DAMN SURE …BY THE TIME HE REACHES YOU NIGGRZ WILL BE TIME TO VOTE AGAIN THATZ JUST THE TRUTH RUTH!!!
All this brother is trying to say is Barack is African not African-American which is true. I’ve been saying it since Barack decided to run for office. As far as his other commments, not much has changed or will change because Obama became President and that is the facts. You would know this if you read a book from time to time and turned off BET.
THIS I MY LAST COMMENT THEN IM OFF TO STAB SOME SKIN I VERY PROUD OF MY PPL AND YOUR EXCITEMENT FOR A BROTHER , SO CALLED , BUT IM ALSO ASHAMED THAT YOU DONT GET THE PITURE HERE ANYTIME WHITES CHOOSE A NEGRO THAT THEY LIKE AND FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH …..THAT SAME NEGRO IZ A DETRAMENT TO HIS/HER RACE WAKE THE ***** UP THE MAN WAS SET UP BY THE ELITE IN THE WORLD THATZ WHY HE DOES NOT WORRY ABOUT BEING KILLED AND DEATH THREATZ HE HAS AGENDA AND ITZ TO SET UP THE ANTI CHRIST ……AND JESUS IZ BLK, THATZ MY PREZ!!! OHH YOU DUMB *****S DONT REALIZE THAT OBAMA WAS NOT YOUR 1ST BLK PREZ WE HAD 5 ALREADY AND THEY ALL WERE OF MIXED RACE!!!
@ This I know: His mother is white, which equals slave master blood. Last time I checked, slave masters were white. You follow. I agree with a post that said he is the same % white as he is black. If he had come out his mother’s complexion and said he was black, what argument would people be having? All I’m trying to say is being black or white doesn’t make u a good president, your policies do. All this race talk is just a deterrent so that ppl won’t examine the real issues. Like us he can’t choose his lineage, so why are we making that an issue? And if that’s how Aaron feels he has a right, the same way we all have a right to express our opinions. I’m disappointed, SMH at Bossip for instigating ***** like this.
If this is Aaron’s opinion, it’s unfortunate. Anyone caught a glimpse of his black jesus might understand his comments. He’s pathetically shocking and disrespectful of “us” Or is anyone this ridiculous a part of “us”? Either way, I am thoroughly disappointed and disgusted.
One of the biggest reasons that was cited (by black and white journalist alike) for Barack Obama to have become such a prominent African American Presidental Nominee in 2007 and 2008 was the fact that he was not restrained by the burden of American slavery. He did not have to bear that resentment towards. Subconciouslyt, when many Black Americans (no i dont mean African Americans, i mean Blacks of American descent) see White Americans they think “your are a descendant of someone who enslaved my family” While Barack would not have seen it this way.
And Aaron is also very on point about his statements about little possibly changing. Honestly, while i support Barack, he is going to, and has, had to modify some of his stances in order to garner support. He is going to have to please everyone, and in some cases doing that may leave us in the same place we are today. Just look at the changes he has had to make so far. He never wore a flag lapel pin, until they started calling him unpatriotic, and now he wears it faithfully.
And this should be no surprise coming from Mr. Magruder, he has always been like this and I love him for it.
YOULL MORE DISAPOINTED WHEN OBAMA DONT HEAL YOUR PAIN THEN HOW DISGUTED WILL YOU NIGGRZ BE? HUH? YOU FEEL LIKE A JACKAZZ LIKE THE WHITES THAT VOTED FOR BUSH TWICE …. ASK THEM CRAKAZ THAT VOTED BUSH HOW THEY FEEL, LIKE ***** AND THE SAME WILL HAPPEN AGAIN BUT YOU NIGGRZ WAS NEVER ON OBAMA AGENDA HE NEVER MENTION YOU…JUST THE MIDDLE CL***** WE ALL KNOW YOU NIGGRZ ARENT THE MIDDLE CL***** ..YOU DONT FIT IN, WERE THE UNDESIRABLES OF THE WORLD HEZ GOING TO IN FORCE ALL BUSHES LAWS !!!
Last time I checked, I have yet to meet someone who can see the future. Of course we all know that change in politics can be gradual(i.e. years during, after or much later), that being said I doubt that a Black man who worked hard in every area of his life and ran for president and won, is naively under such an *****umption. Get real haters, get in line and if you can do better, do it! (sorry, 4 years from now) Not your turn!
I agree wholeheartedly!
THOSE ARENT TYPO’S IM JUST HIGH AND HAPPY THAT IM NOT THE ONLY MUH *****KA THAT FEEL LIKE THIS …AFRICANZ THATZ BLAKER THAN YOU NIGGRZ DONT WANT ***** TO DO WITH YOU SO WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THIS PROMINATE NIGGR OBAMA LOVE YOU SO …YOU NEVER EVEN HEARD OF THIS NIGGR TIL LAST YEAR ..AND YOU HAVE ALL THIS LOVE …THIS IZ HOW THE DEVIL IS GOING TO GET YOU DUMB NIGGRZ IN THE LAST DAYZ …IGNORANCE !!!!
Man, ***** all this white/black/green/blue *****…BARACK IS THE FIRST PREZ TO EVER HAVE TO GET AN ‘EDGE UP’ OR BETTER YET HE’S THE FIRST PREZ TO EVER HAVE A REGULAR (CAESAR FOR YOU UP NORTH *****Z)….THAT’S BLACK ENOUGH FOR ME. See that nose? See them lips? find me another Prez that REMOTELY have those strong, BLACK features and I’ll give you my whole 401k….and if you are black–excuse me, African-American or whatver–how can you NOT be proud of this moment?
way to go smdh @ kigali…exemplary example of some dumb-***** educated-black folks behavour.
Kudos you idiots.
and lastly…***** a cynic…i’d like to see some of yall punk *****, complainin ***** **********as try and run for president and win that *****.
***** RUNNING FOR PREZ, ***** THIS COUNTRY AND ***** BENG PROUD! FOR WHAT? I WAS ALWAYZ PROUD ..I DONT NEED A NIGGR PREZ TO BE PROUD YOU DUMB MUH *****KA!!!
YOU NIGGRZ NEED TO BE PROUD OF MICHELLE AND HER MAMMY!
*****acoon — you need to check your roots as well you back woods, toothless, ignorant, uneducated, white-lighting drinking, offspring of slave rapers *****ing, you probably still have the dirt on your hands from your ancestors creeping in the slave houses you ignorant *****hole. You’re the type who likes to talk trash about black folks, stop hating! because you couldn’t pay a sista to give you some ***** and hate black men because your little tiny pink pencil nuts will never be as loud and as proud as a black man’s so get over yourself and take your racist comments and choke on them. You’re just another joke, you probably sitting at home right now picking your tooth, combing your nappy white afro trying to get some soul you ignorant fool!
THIS IS MY KINDA THREAD!!! WISH IWAS HERE EARLIER!!!
Vanilla spice, you need to sit down and stop trying to act hard, you know you take it in the rear. And if a real banger ran up on you, you’d hollar like a *****! You do speak in ***** tongues you drag queen!
i tired of hearing bout 30yr olds crying behind this man…saying this day is a blessing from GOD as if the american system will now be a fair a just one. How can one not be skeptical of any united states president given what the country has shown its citizens and the world over just the last century?
@Glok9n: The real glok !!!
Truth.com. I’m thinking the same thing.
***** A COON! IS A COON TRYING TO SOUND WHITE ..HEZ NO THREAT, THE THREAT WILL BE THE INCREASE OF BLKZ GETTING KILLED DUE TO THESE WHITE RACIST GROUPS THATZ GONNA START OBAMA BACK LASH!!! PREPARE FOR WAR MY PPL IS NOT GONNA BE SWEET …WHITES SEEING ALL YOU NIGGRZ GATHERED IN THE NAME OF OBAMA WILL BE TARGETING BLKZ…Y OU SEE THE WHITE MAN HAS FALLEN HE NO LONGER IZ IN POWER NOT DUE TO OBAMA BUT DUE TO BUSH …..THIS IS CALLED PHYSCOLOGICAL WARFARE….A RACE WAR WILL START SOON AND YOU NIGGRZ ARENT READY TO DIE !!!!
@***** First
You didnt know, you have to be in the same bloodline as all the other 43 Presidents in order to be President..Thats right Obama is the cousin of George Bush and ***** Cheaney!
First of… Don’t you see how the only time they would even think about handing over the reins is when the country is in shambles… Even our INFRASTRUCTURE is giving way! I am like McGruder and I hope I am proven wrong. But never sleep on yt… the Devil is still up to his old tricks.
Buzz words that tell me that the media has successfully brainwashed many of us chronologically:
1. Yes We Can
2. Hope and Change
3. Change We Can Believe In
4. Change Will Not Happen Overnight
We’ve also seen the following mentality: Throw (x, y, z) under the bus because they don’t blindly support or have the audacity to question Obama. That’s been going on since the primaries. No surprise here.
I wonder what the brainwashing will be, I think I already see a pattern.
1. “He’s not even in office yet”
2. “He’s only been in office for a few days”
3. “He’s only been in office for a few months”
4. “He’s only been in office for a year”
5. “He’s only served one term
I’m beginning to see the narrative and I hope that many of you wake up and see it for yourselves. Whether or not I agree with what this Boondock creator has to say, I’m glad we still have the ability to speak out against what we feel is wrong. However, looking at many of the comments here, I don’t even know how long this will last.
I think some of you (us) need to look real long and hard and what we have done and what we are doing. We have elected an African American President and have most definitely scored one for the history books. However, it seems to have come at a price–smugness, entitlement, and censorship.
Enjoy those rights while you still have them.
preach!
and also black are just about the last group of no-nonsense peoples who don’t tend to beleive the hype that the media, politics and politicians tend to shove down the average citizens throat…with obama in office, and black all of a sudden feeling like “real americans”, who’s to say they won’t now buy into the hype much they same way ‘traditional americans’ -i.e. white folks and their *****imilators- have bought into it with the us against them mentality when it comes to american issues???
Obama was raised in America, he grew up in the ’70s, wearing an afro, listening to Sly and the Family Stone, Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin, watching “Soul Train” just like the rest of us.
His upbringing was not “typical” AA (whatever that means,) but no one’s African-American experience have been the same.
He identifies himself as AA, married an AA woman and lived and worked in an AA community… enough said.
And in the words of the President himself, “If there’s anyone who still doubts” that he is a brotha, just view this video of him choppin’ it up at Ben’s Chilli Bowl in D.C.
He gets real soulful at 0.57 seconds.
@ HARLEM WORLD !!! THANK YOU , YOU HIT IT ON THE HEAD !!! WHY WOULD ANYBODY OF ANY RACE WANT TO TAKE THIS JOB AT A TIME LIKE THIS…UNLESS THERE IS A BIGGER AGENDA!!!
YEAHH LOL!!! YOU NIGGRZ WAVING FLAGZ!!! HA!!! DUMB *****Z!!!! NOW YOU NIGGRZ FEEL AMERICAN !
@ Glok9n
“a race war will start soon”- do you honestly think an African won’t attest to his right to bare arms against people like you. We saw what our forefather’s went through with peace and unity, but we know that you people are pathologically immoral heathens who thrive on hate. I don’t need the wonderful,Mr. President, to understand the beauty, uniqueness, and intellect of the African man, woman, or child, I knew it all along. He just confirms it. Also, I don’t I need you(who sounds like a a broken record) being as ignorant as sin, to know haters are abound. You say your name is Gloch 9, but you act the softest on Bossip.
Talk is cheap and Silence is Golden.
Obama 09*
GTFOH! In that area of Ben’s Chili Bowl its probably more white people that live there than Black people now..Gentrification went rampant in that area!
How the ***** does listening to Stevie Wonder, Sly etc equate to being black or even living the plight of the average American Black Man…
Bottomline Obama is Bush’s peoples..His mother is related to Bush! In the 70’s the ***** was *****ing Hawaian chicks saying Aloha, aint too many *****s in Hawaii!
Sojourner Truth

—————————————————
And this is the problem. The powers that be know that although we, as black people are very skeptical, we will sell our soul for an image. Everything we know and expect from Obama comes from our projections, insecurities, and longing to be accepted. The sad thing is that in doing so, we have further diminished our self worth. We built this country and have stood strong throughout all of the crap thrown our way. And, we have sold our soul for the IMAGE of what Obama is. Nothing concrete (no real plans for the economy, no real plans for the african american community–and PLEASE don’t give me that bullcrap that he is the President of All of America and not just black america.)–just a bunch of carefully crafted words and images (his dark skinned wife, him having Jay-Z in his ipod, him having Beyonce serenade him).
And when those that do question him, they are met with…Opposition. Our Ancestors’ fight was based on opposition and questioning the powers that be.
I honestly think our ancestors would be rolling over in their graves–the deep ones that is. They sacrificed so much for us only to have us vote on nothing more than a perception of what Obama will do nothing and have, along the way failed to ask him for substance.
FAKE ***** HUNGRYHOMO!!!! NIGGR SHUT UP, AZZWIPE HOW CAN YOU ACT HARD ON A PC ? YOU SOUND STUPID IM I SCARING YOU AND THIS IS YOUR WAY OF FIGHT ME OFF,YOU ***** YOU SOUND IT AND BEEN ALL YOUR LIFE IM BLK *****HEAD I JUST DONT FOLLOW THE CROWD LIKE JACKAZZES LIKE YOU YOU *****!!! ***** OBAMA YOU *****SUCKA RIDING HIS ***** WILL GET YOU NOWHERE!!!

————————————————–
Again, another problem. Another projection. How do we know Obama worked hard? What do we base that on? What the media tells us? From what I can tell, he was a “community organizer” who had no real job description to compare success or failure. He voted “present” a lot while a state senator. And for the majority of his time in the Senate, he arrived late (do*****ented, so google it), and was running for president.
What is it that makes him everything you say? Is it because of his Ivy League Degrees (Please, I know thousands of people who graduate from Ivy league colleges and can say that intelligence/diligence does not an Ivy League school make? Is it because of his stellar GPA and/or SAT scores, IQ tests, LSAT scores? I don’t know, I have yet to see them. Is it because of his scholarly papers written while president of the Harvard Law Review (oh wait, he did not publish ANYTHING and is the first in the history of the HLR to not have done so). Is it the cushy judge clerkship get received after graduating from HLS (which is the traditional track most constitutional scholars take–especially those who graduate “at the top of their cl*****” as Obama did? Oh wait, he did not receive any (unheard of by the way).
So, I want you to look long and hard at what you see in Obama and tell me is it what you see or what you have been told to see?
or, are they your projections?
THATZ WHY I DONT BLOG SO MUCH CUZ OF *****Z LIKE YOU AND WE NEED TO KILL OFF NIGGRZ LIKE YOU 1ST …I MUST SCARE YOU BYTCH NIGGRZ, I CANT HELP THAT I SOUND MANLY AND YOU BLOG BYTCHY LIKE A FEMALE RIDIN ON OBAMA ***** LIKE HE LOVES YOU …***** HIM !

I agree with smarty spice. I do not think he meant President Obama is not black literally. Everybody knows he is half-African and half-white. I think he meant that Michelle and her mother is more like us, because their ancestors came to this country through slavery like majority of African Americans’ ancestors did in America. I think he is talking about heritage and not color. I think he needs to learn how to explain himself better when he talks. You can look at President Obama and know that he is black, so I know he cannot be that dumb. I see President Obama has mix. However, in America if you have one ounce of black in you then you are black.
Well said Dubya!
What up Glok9!
Im out to another thread
Well dubya unless you work for the IRS or the FBI and you were privy to information that the rest of we’re not, present that information in a blog or white paper online. Site your sources and prove us wrong for believing in Obama. If can’t do this or you’re unwilling to this please sit your simple self hating ***** down some where and shut the F#@$% UP. Whew now for McGruder. Oh Mcgruder show me slave papers; show me auction slip that says 1619 JamesTown accross the top. This questioning of blackness is one of the main Divide and conquer tactis that keeps us cutting each other off at the knees. What makes a Barack a black man is he knows despite his sucess there is still inequality, there is still work to be done. Blackness is not solely defined by geography or economic deprevity. We have to stop this self sabotauge.
WHUT UP RED! IM OUT, I ONLY GOT ON TO JUST KILL SOME TIME!!! IM BOUT TO GO SMASH THESE SKINZ!!!
Yup!
***** ***** NIGGR CHANGED NAMES AGAIN!!! DUMB *****GT YOU SO OBVIOUS
@Glok9
**********edness is rampant nowadays…
Obama’s black/mixed raced and could maybe be called technically an African-American by proxy through his marriage and parti*****tion in the African-American community , but he’s not African-American, plain and simple. Fools can play semantic word games with the definition of African-American but anyone who’s honest knows the term applies to the decendents, mixed and un-mixed, of African slaves brought to America as part of the trans-atlantic slave trade. The primary basis of ethnicity is SHARED HISTORY AND BLOOD (consanguinity).This is true for all peoples, ethnic groups, tribes etc, across the world and throughout history (African-Americans included). Are African-American army brats born and raised on foreign army bases separated from their parent’s history because of the cir*****stances of their place of birth and upbringing? NO! Obama’s history is his white European ancestor’s history and his Kenyan ancestor’s history, back through time. If his parents concieved, bore and raised him in Germany would he still be considered African-American? NO! It’s not about where you are born but from whom you were born. TRUTH!
@HARLEMWORLD!!LOL!!! I SEE,ITZ LIKE A *****KING PLAGUE!!!
It’s due to all these years of the white man debasing our families and pumping our women up to create inefficient households lacking real men to raise more real men.
Actually the Boondocks guy is correct…on some points.
The term black was devised to refer to the descendents of slaves. President Obama’s daddy was an African but he was not a slave. On the other hand the term black is also used loosely to describe any person of mixed heritage like the offspring of an African and a white woman, which he is. Even black people with white folks in their family line are considered blacks. These are the rules whites made up. They only want to change them now because he is president. To Late. He be, we be, I be Black!
You can’t change the game in the middle of the play. Barack has lived his life as a black man, so that is what he is.
So sad when you are ignant. If you don’t know what to say don’t say nothing.
I understand African Americans feel that for the first time they are finally able to take charge but I think this whole Obama being black thing is really irritating. First and formost, what happen to Cynthia Mckinney, who was the first black and female presidential nominee in 2008. Where was her shine and glory for being one of the first African Americans to have a chance at power. Two, I understand out here that America makes you claim a race. My thing is Obama is half white, and half African. He is a mulatto and should be praised as the first minority as a president more than being the first African American in office cause guess what? He is mixed and had he fill out those indentity questions, he would have to choose other or Multiracial. I think it is wrong that he gets to be shown as african american, but if you was to see someone who walked on the street who looked White or Mixed, and they tried to claim black, or they are a sister/brother, most African Americans will be quick to put them in their place. Stop with the biases people and acknowledge him for being a minority, or a Mix, the very thing most White people despise because being half white means he is a half breed. Not trying to stir up controversy but give due where due should be given. His wife is African American, praise her for being the first Black First lady. DOn’t make a man claim he is one race when truly he is two, because if he was to claim he was white, he would be an uncle tom and would be seen as someone who doesn’t want to acknowledge his own race. That is why I agree with the creator of the Boondocks. Stop being close minded and listen America
You guys are missing the point on this one. Aaron is raising a valid argument. This is where the culture clash and perceptions of race differ between black americans and continental africans.
———————————-
Authentically Black–the STANDARD.
Doesn’t matter what country or tribe—but there is an Aesthetic to BLACK looks, whether it’s a blue black Nubian….or a light brown Ibo….or a “red clay” Oromo…or a “yam yellow” Xosha. They are all FULL BLACK or “authentic” as we say.
Many Black Americans who are “MIXED”—-are also considered FULL BLACK by African standards.
Such as…India Arie, Don Cheadle, Chris Rock, Angela B*****ett, Red Foxx, Gladys Knight, Aretha Franklin, Michael Jordan, Toni Morrison, T-Boz from TLC.
But NOT Halle Berry or Africa’s own Thandie Newton (who is considered African, but not “black”) or even “Chili” from TLC.
**Notice that Africans would consider yellow-skinned T-BOZ a “FULL BLACK”—but brown skinned “Chili” a “Mixed Black”.
(cont’d)
BEFORE COLONIALISM and INVASION….
The fact remains that in Africa, —–long before the White and Arab men enslaved/colonized us—-Black People had their OWN STANDARD of “race” (race meaning family) that was linked directly to our African colors and features, all of which come from a MOTHERSEED–the first “race”—the NILOTICS.
The Nilotics are the “parents” of…”The Negroes”, which is our third race (after the “Pygmy” race).
NILOTICS are (a) Charcoal (b) very tall (c) have thin features–skinny nose, full lips, high cheekbones (d) have African Hair, but in some cases, “stick-straight” hair.
NEGROES are (a)Black Chocolate (b)muscular (c)have broad, thick features (d) *female Negro is world famous for Large, High shapely Rear-End. (E) ALWAYS have “African Hair”.
To be “BLACK” or “AFRICAN”—-You must be BORN FROM an indigenous “tribe” (Black Americans are the BLOOD of 150 tribes), you must have a CLAN NAME (ie. Hausa, Nilotic (Nubian or Cu*****e),Yoruban, Bantu), you must have
“The Proof” (African Hair, “nappy”)—-and your skin MUST BE visibly of the African shades, not “mixed”.
CHARCOAL (the Nilotic original:peoples of the Nile River)….
Nubians, Rural Ethiopians, West Kenyans and Cu*****es (Dinka, Nuer, Oromo, Mandan, Shilluk).
BLUE BLACK…Congolese, Gambians, Senegalese, Ivory Coast
*BLACK CHOCOLATE (The Continental Majority)….ALL OVER THE PLACE
CHOCOLATE FUDGE….Nigerians, Ghanians
DEFINITE BROWN…..East Kenyans, the Black Egyptian cattle people
Wet Wood Brown…..Southern Africans
Peanut Butter Brown….(the Ibo people, Nigeria)
LIGHT BROWN….(Eritreans, Ethiopians, Somalis)
RED CLAY…..(“some” OROMO people are Red, some are Charcoal)
YAM YELLOW (think Toni Morrison and Redd Foxx, the rarest) (some Xhosha and Zulu)
Black American Scholars will often try to claim that….IN AFRICA, blacks come in all colors and textures……but that’s a LIE. The truth is, we have many nations in the North where invaders have created Mulatto Mixed Race populations (Moroccco, Libya, Tunisia, Egypt)—–we do not socialize or mix and they do not consider themselves “black or African”–unless they’re in America or trying to borrow money from rich Black Americans.
**Yam Yellow Africans have Negro features and African hair. They are NOT mixed and can only be found in the SOUTHERN African nations like Botswana, South Africa and Namibia—but they are RARE.
In Ethiopia and Somalia (two Blue Black nations), there is a RULING CL***** of MIXED RACE dark brown clans, mostly congregated in their Capital Cities—notice Addis Ababba. These people are usually my color but with straight hair and Italian or Asiastic features—notice the Ethiopian Track Runners who recently won the Marathon (they were blue black Ethiopians with nappy hair, skinny Nilotic facial features and that is what the vast MAJORITY of Ethiopians and Somali look like, but the MEDIA always focuses on the light mixed race brown ones).
A long, long Face and a large forehead is the standard look of a NILOTIC African–especially in Ethiopia and Somalia and Eritrea and Kenya.
The Mixed Race Ethiopians and Somalis are NOT “full black” and usually don’t *****ociate with “Pure Ethiopians, Somalis”….just ask Nurudin Farah.
___________
WHY IT MATTERS….
As the World Media is now trying to capitalize on our self-hatred and ENCOURAGE us that it’s “better” to breed….AWAY….from our origins and our place of “Knowing”……many Blacks, worldwide, are being Ultra-sensitive to the fact that we are being represented by a Mulatto/Mixed BUFFER RACE that doesn’t really reflect “our humanity” and especially not our “total experience”.
This is like going to the campus at SPELMAN and seeing a “Black Women’s Conference”—-only to notice that every single black woman on the panel is yellow, red and light brown (which is usually the case) with a Kinte cloth thrown over her shoulder. All my life in the U.S.—I have seen this—-where “dark skinned” males are allowed to represent BLACK PEOPLE, but not dark skinned women.
MOST Black American women are still darker than a paper bag and have African hair—-but in the Media, the vast majority of images of Black American women are represented by YELLOW or Light Brown women, very often Bi-racial and Mixed Race.
From Johnetta B. Cole to Julianne Mulveaux…to Halle Berry…..to news anchors like Carole Simpson….to the WIVES of most black men who “married black”……there is OVER-representation of Light Skinned women.
And that is….racist.
As the reality of “colorism” continues to be an emerging TOPIC/ISSUE and as those who have traditionally suffered the most from it—dark skinned people (“authentic” blacks)—their is a groundswell of rage and ac*****ulated hurts, injustices that is forming an *****YSIS of just….who IS us…..and who is not.
Complicating this *****ysis is the fact that some mixed people, ie. Malcolm X (my hero), Barack Obama and Julianne Mulveaux (I love her!)…..are BLACKER than many “authentic” black folks….ie. Clarence Thomas, Wesley Snipes and Montel Williams.
Race and Color…..DO MATTER….because it’s been proven for a thousand years now that once people become mixed with White Blood—they wish to maintain that status and usually turn against the black origins, forced to shun it in order to keep their kids from “staining” the new skin. And as well….MANY dark black Africans are also reluctant to be *****ized by the blood of the invaders.
AFRICAN AMERICANS:
For Black Americans, this is a very painful and conflicting situation—-because your slave master raised you that anything touched by you…is categorized WITH you, making it possible for someone who is clearly White (Mariah Carey) to be considered “black”.
However, many of these “light skinned” blacks have gone to Europe and to Africa and to Brazil and found out that they are not considered “black” in those places. And in reality—genetically—they are NOT black.
Strangely…many Black Americans WANT/DESIRE to be “represented” by White-looking people……as if to say to their former owners, “SEE–we’re just as white as you are!” So they fight hard to claim Vin Diesel and Mariah Carey as THEIR stock.
___________
Lastly…..WHY I use the term “Black American”.
Because when Africans use the term “African-American”, people often think we’re talking about IMMIGRANT Africans instead of the people already here. So I use the term “Black American” for Clarity—but I certainly DO think of Black Americans (most of them) as AFRICAN people.
MOST still look African.
Now we’re talking!
Like I said before Aaron has supported Obama all through the primaries and if he said that, he was just stirring the pot. VIA his my*****e:
“Hey guys, never said Barack wasn’t Black… please don’t bother me with that bull*****. Anything else… ask John Witherspoon. AM”
Obama is one of, if not, the most overrated, overpraised, overhyped person to have ever lived. I’m not saying he won’t be a great President but all the praise is unwarranted. And I honestly don’t see the too good to be true part that everyone sees. Obama is a gifted speaker, has crooked friends, and has the ability to inspire people. That just proves he’s a brilliant politician. I fail to see the logic that this man is the first honest politician that should actually be trusted and taken at his word.
What is Boondock?
their = posession, ownership (their house is beautiful)
there = as in over there in the park!
OVERCOME ILLITERACY FOLKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
much love and respect to you QueenNZinga for speaking the whole truth!
sad thing is soooo many black men dont care to learn this info and only seek any other kind of a woman other than a dark-skinned sistah like MICHELLE OBAMA!!!
Crazy Motherfugga
CookieMonsterFortheDeffense
Well dubya unless you work for the IRS or the FBI and you were privy to information that the rest of we’re not, present that information in a blog or white paper online. Site your sources and prove us wrong for believing in Obama. If can’t do this or you’re unwilling to this please sit your simple self hating ***** down some where and shut the F#@$% UP. Whew now for McGruder. Oh Mcgruder show me slave papers; show me auction slip that says 1619 JamesTown accross the top. This questioning of blackness is one of the main Divide and conquer tactis that keeps us cutting each other off at the knees. What makes a Barack a black man is he knows despite his sucess there is still inequality, there is still work to be done. Blackness is not solely defined by geography or economic deprevity. We have to stop this self sabotauge.
————————————————–
But we know about Sarah Palin’s or Joe the Plumbers…you are the epitome of what I am talking about.
Barack Obama is president, not a Hollywood celebrity or the second coming of Christ. All of this blind, fanatical devotion, chastisement of anyone who questions Obama’s policies, and the constant chanting of his last name in unison every time he makes a speech is a distraction and annoyance.
Give him the Coon Of The Day award. Why do you feel Tay Zonday deserves it for doing an innocuous Dr. Pepper but not this *****tard who went as far as claiming African people aren’t black (WTF?!?!?!)?
i watched this guy on Bill Maher’s program and I thought he was a bright guy. But now he sounds like a total idiot.Since when is some one who is part African not Black , what an idiot.
People seem so upset by these comments but not too long ago, a lot of black people were asking if he was “black enough”. It has been said that the majority of blacks was on the side of Clinton until after Obama won Iowa, point being that he had to prove he could win over whites before blacks would get behind him. I think dude is entitled to his own opinion on whatever subject. Obama has made some questionable decisions and comments before he even got in office. I voted for him and I don’t expect perfection just honesty and effort on his part. Majority of the change is gonna have to come from the people. Whatever race people see him as doesn’t matter, or the political title of “black” doesn’t really matter either, its up to Obama how he cl*****ifies himself. From my understanding that “black” thing is controversial because descendants from African slaves in other parts of the world don’t all view themselves in the same way that we view ourselves.
for the ignorant people, who don’t see the historic significance in this moment. It doesn’t matter if Barack is bi-racial, in a country grounded in racism and imperialism voted a man of color (and YES the color is black) into the highest office in the United States. Yes, the electoral college is a problem, but for the first time in this racist country’s history it chose a black man to lead it… and to equate black with being from slaves is really ignorant in and of itself. MacGruder needs to look in the mirror. He may have black parents but those facial features and melanin didn’t come from some Zulu Warrior blood line. He needs to go upgrade that African American studies degree he got from University of Maryland.
@Rusty
I cosign, whoever thought OBAMA wasn’t black enough those are the african american people who are just as racist as the KKK. GET over it, he is OUR new President, deal with it. And for this idiot who said that OBAMA is not black because he didn’t come from African, well I was bore over here in America….so does that mean everyone born here in American is not an American? I just don’t understand why we can’t move on…there are just as many prejudice African American people as there are white racist…we really need to get it together because there will not be a seperate place in heaven and hell for all these races God has created, either you going to heaven or hell, and folks I got to tell you, GOD is not going to send you to either place because of your skin tone…
looooooolllllll at americans trying to act like they know everything Obama is everything but black hes half black half white = MULATTO
my girlfriend is biracial so when people call her white or black shes offended cuz she is BIRACIAL NOT black idiots!
im black brown skinned
My mums is from ghana and is Liiiighttt skinned
so for QueenNZinga to say some people in this and that country are this colour is the dead wrong But
afro americans is the only people that focus on diffrent shades come to europe you wont see that
@Looool
She can get mad, and call herself bi-racial, but she’s the descendant of two different races (your friend). She IS black, and she IS white.
Obama is mulatto. But he IS ALSO the descendant of a Kenyan family. Period. Although he was raised by a white family, in a predominantly white location, in the most technical of terms, his is also African American.
Free speech, eat it up!
how can someone with an African father, a Black Wife, and two Black children not be Black??? Obama is Blacker than Men who are 100% black. He just wants people to watch his show… Still not gonna happen lmaaaaaaaoooooooo!!!!!!!!!
This guy is a moron… Africans were enslaved and brought to America… He needs to go get educated before he speaks any more.
you guys need to stop complaining his a black man remember most of us might have white in us all cause the slave masters raped black women.
if you guys did not know Obama mother was white all you guys would say his a black man since you know his mother is white you guys crying like *****es.
Obama is more black or african american then most of these so call black celebrity that we know i.e. (Reggie Bush wifing up Kim K who did a sextape with Ray J. lol). also Obama is married to a positive black woman and has two lovely kids. let Obama do his job and sort out the situation that america and the world have right now.
@Glockn
I know that you’re Black, but that does not mean that you are a brother and yes it goes for white supremacist, as well as, self loathers, like yourself.
I sound stupid? Doubt that.
I don’t agree with Macgruder because barack obama lived the american experience. I do see where he’s getting at about the elections. Also, If there were 60 Democratics in the Senate he would have a really good chance of p*****ing everything he wants. Barack Obama presidency is going to be tough and the president after him will have the good years. Macgruder does make you think, so lets not make a big deal about this.
Barack Obama= descendant of Africans.
Black Americans= descendants of Africans.
Barack Obama= descendant of Europeans.
Black Americans= descendants of Europeans.
… it’s funny how the descendants of slaves in south America are readily accepted as “mulata”, when racial mixing was going on, here in the states, prevalently. I am not saying that Blacks are not Black, but many of us have some white person(s)swinging from our family trees, whether it was immediately or not, all people,Black and not Black are integral parts of how we came to be- master or not. Many Black folks in L.A. seem to have some distinct Native American trait, I noticed. We just hold on to the African the most, because it was what was taken from our forefathers, as well as ourselves. Either way, Barack Obama is a Black/ African-American man, just like the rest of us.
…some people just want to claim him as not being Black, because he is greatness. The same thing happened with Egypt, or shall I call its real name, Kemet. They try to dis*****ociate Kemet from Africa, because it is great.
As I scroll through the thread, I see nothing but a handful of African-American men, hating on another African-American man. Is it because he magnified the fact that you are LOSERS? You should get inspired to be more than just a chat line hero.
- @ People are Stupid: I see u!
- @ Hannibal/Come on: I’ve drawn the same conclusion! I’ve never referred to myself as African-American. I’m not! And Blacks from Africa HATE when American Blacks refer to themselves as such!
- @ Kia: When GWB was up to his shenanigans, he was your prez, did you have his back then? Really, beside the obvious what’s the difference between him & Obama (I know there are differences. I’m just interested in you perspective of their policies).
- @ Jimithai: 100%
- @ Lollipop77: Whoa!
- @ Trunk Popper: True dat!
- @ K-Cee: LMAO
- @ Aunt Viv: Things that make you go “hmm”!
- @ tj: Kick science!
- @ Kay: The other side is his own people as well.
- @ just say no to sambo: Tavis & Aaron are anything but sambos. If you could get the stars outta your eyes for but just 1 moment you would see that all these men were trying to convey to general Black populace was for you to hold Obama accountable. Skin color is not a credential of solidarity or commitment to the cause! If that were the case, people like Clarence Thomas wouldn’t exist, with his self-hating *****! Don’t *****ume that someone is looking out for or has your best interest at heart simply because they have melanin. And that goes for everyone in your life, not just the president.
- @ No Names Were Left: It’s the “1 drop” law. And who created this idea? White people! Since slavery, many enslaved Blacks from exclusively African ancestry were highly suspicious of mulattoes. Rightfully so, since they were a result of white slavers raping of Black enslaved women. No romance was involved! This was a tactic of terrorism and a ploy to pit Blacks against one another. And white people were highly successful! The situation with the lighter complected enslaved was that they were afforded certain privileges that the darker complected weren’t such as the role of overseer and access to the homes of slavers. Historically, concept of the 1-10th rule worked for its time. Although I am not of bi-racial heritage, I would implore you to ask someone of bi-racialism what they identify themselves as. From my experience, it’s a difficult question to answer due to many variables. 1st, they are half-Black & half-white. How do you choose one over the other? Although society may identify you as one over the other, when that person looks in the mirror, they can see that their are obvious differences that don’t make them one or the other, but a composition of both. 2nd, not just in American society, but the world over, Black connotes negativity. On the basis of that, I can see someone not strictly identifying themselves as Black, especially when they are not full what is characteristically Black. From my experience (as an observer, not a product of bi-raciality), bi-racial individuals seem to be the most internally conflicted and externally torment people. They struggle with how the world sees them, their heritage and reconciling that with how they (should) see themselves. All I can say is, I’m grateful that I don’t have to deal with that!
BTW, during one of the president’s press conferences as the prez-elect, he reffered to himself as a “mutt”, when pressed about what kind of dog he wanted to get for the White House.
Forgot to mention about people of bi-racial make up. Think about it, denying one part of yourself is essentially denying yourself!
hate to admit it but he’s (aaron mcgruder) correct in his *****ysis but it doesnt matter to me so.
Most people who are bi-racial will not exclusively identify themselves as black simply due to the longstanding negative stigma *****ociated with being black.
Who wants to deal with that ish! lol (And I’m black!)
WHY DONT PEOPLE IN THE WORLD TELL IT LIKE IT IS…………TRUTH……….IT DIDNT MATTER WHERE U WERE FROM BACK IN THE SLAVERY DAYS AS LONG AS YOUR SKIN WAS BLACK YOU WERE CONSIDERED AND TREATED LIKE A NI**ER………SO ON THE FACT THAT A MAN WITH DARK SKIN IS IN THE WHITE HOUSE IS SHOWING SOME TYPE IF NOT PROGRESS AT LEAT TOLERANCE…
Poor Richard_Foster, I don’t think anybody even bothered to read your post, if they did they’d realize that the two sentences that were reported on were taken out of context. “Black” blogs, know what to feed thier readers to exploit insecurities and pathologies, and it never fails. What you see is nothing more than a rerun of the same convoluted long-winded arguments that have been made ad nauseam, its getting tired. I’m sure Obama has had to be subjected to the questioning of his blackness before. Hell so has anybody who doesn’t fit into the neat little box of monolithic experiences that are deemed acceptable, by whomever the self-proclaimed authority on “Blackness” is concerned. Including myself who have two black parents. I can identify with him, with me myself who also was raised by a single mother, struggeling to make ends meet. I don’t know why everyone acts as if he breezed through life unscathed. Lord we look dysfunctional, so much for Pan-African unity eh? I hate when blacks *****ume that our pain is more significant or exclusive to us. His family doesnt have the same resentment towards the “white establishmen” as ours do? Um have you seen the standard of living in Kenya? were they not like all other nations in Africa subjected to colonialism? But again all this is really irrelevant to me. If the man identifies himself with being “black”, then so be it, thats his decision, obviously he’s comfortable with it, why everyone else has such a problem adjusting to it is beyond me. oh and please with the “DOOMSDAY ANTI-CHRIST” rhetoric! when this theory doesnt materialize, as it usually never does, then whay do you say? I get it youre intellectually evolved, the rest of us are stuck in the matrix, our knuckles are scraping the ground. But really the Anti-Christ?, I try to be open minded, but not to the point my skull is so agape my brain falls out! I’ll tell you like my Dad told me once “Unfortuanately dear sometimes reality aint that sexy, and human intentions are not that complex”.
[...] I was taken by the fact that Bossip reported that Aaron said in a recent conference that President Barack Obama is not Black. There’s something wrong with this statement, especially when this brother studied in college and [...]
I have no words for this guy. None.
at this point y’all should bizarre. read the letter he published in response and grow up. it seems like there’s mostly a bunch of weirdo racist “coon haters” spouting off here at this point. yuck! super stupid.
bossip, police these threads man seriously!
Thank You
QueenNZinga, dubya
Yawn…..just another wanna be controversial idiot towing the line for the anti-Obama “look at me, I’m so hip, I’m so cool, I zig when everyone else zags” crowd. This time, fool, you needed to zag…you dumb zigger!
Believe it or not people this brother is right..You all need to read and study..Gen 10 list all of the nations of people..If we read and study you all will know that the so-called Negroe are really the Hebrew Israelites…Obama father is from Kenya a Hamite(African)..Michelle Obama is a Israelite which are the slaves from the south..Obama says that in a lot of his speeches but everyone misses it..He said my dad was a immigrant not a decendant from anscestral slaves..WAKE UP JACOB! Get ready for the 2nd Exodus!
I understand what he is saying. . . black women p***** more of their DNA to children. Where do u think we get the term ‘Mama Africa’ from? All of humankind’s DNA is traced to one black woman in Africa. Black people are trying so hard to umbrella all the mixing we are doing and calling it black. We want light skin and ‘good hair’. We hate our blackness. In the future, all these mixed people are going to be asked to cl*****ified under a different race because it is appearing more and more that mixing is not doing anything for us except ignoring our internal issues.
Internally there aren’t any issues though, I’m mixed and I’m pretty damn sure that my mother is beautiful inside and out and has no internal issues, that she would avoid giving to a baby. Black people don’t have internal issues. The point is, Barack has black in him, he doesn’t have to be fully black, or his mom doesn’t have to be black for him to be considered black. His features that come from his father’s side are still very prominent.
First of all i am just so sick and tired of people trying to figure out whteher or not he is black or american or any and everything else . this is just making us more seperated i know in houston its obvious who didnt vote for obama because when they look at you they have this look on they face likme they disgusted . i love it i laugh right in they face at how stupid they are . I dont understand why white people feel as if theyare better than anybody else bossip why you sittin at your dessk typin this ***** go reasearch how this people are going around targeting people who are nnot right because they mad that a black man is presidnet .
AND AS FAR AS THE DUDE FROM BOONDOCKS I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW YOU OF ALL PEOPL CAN SIT UP HERE AND SAY SOMTHING ABOUT OBAMA NOT BEING BLACK ? THAT IS A REAL GOOD WAY TO GET PEOPL NOT TO EVEN WATCH YOUR SHOW .
i mean damn HOW MANY PRESIDENTS WERE WHITE in the past 8 years we have been suffering and by we i mean everybody due to people of power who abuse it with they *****ing greed i mean i dont know how its goign up north but down here they are really heated and its making it harder for us not to fall victim to they ignorance . HE AINT EVEN BEEN IN THERE TWO GOOD WEEK AND THEY TALKING ABOUT HIM ALREADY .
its just so *****ing frustrating. let him do him if mccain old ***** was in there then *****ody would have ***** to say naturally . HE IS BLACK ! PERIOD THERE IS A BLACK MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE deal with that ***** and move on change is a ***** huh hatin *****es
I went to high school with Aaron, which was in a predominately white suburban area. With that being said, maybe we should question Aaron’s “Blackness” instead of President Obama’s.
mcgruder was fairly cool like, ten years ago. this bama is WAY too into himself. let’s not question barack’s blackness; i’ve ALWAYS had the feeling that mcgruder only dates white girls (or would if it were socially acceptable).
If the comments are really true that Mr. McGruder made questioning the authenticity of our Commander-in-Chief’s lack of blackness, then Mr. McGruder, I have to say that you may want to spend some time looking in the mirror since you are not only a light-complected individual, but you have wavy hair, and I can almost bet my bottom dollar that that if I were to shake your family tree someone resembling the man from the Quaker Oats box would fall from a branch close in line to your parents. Should we then say that you are not truly, black, and cease all support and continued reading of your comic strip?
He has a right to his opinion…and his label “dumb *****”. He needs to grow up.
i kind of agree with him. yes at the end of the day barack looks black but he is not african american. well technically he is because his father is african and he is american but he does not have the slave mentality and was not a descendant of a slave. perhaps thats why he is not an ANGRY BLACK ACTIVIST which would have lost him the race. He really can not identify with “the struggle” so why are black ppl so upset he did not specifically address the problems in the black community? He is not black!! HE is BIRACIAL both. Accept it and move on. Plus, the black community problem is not a federal issue. It is an individual and state issue. People need to write in to their mayors and be more active in their communities. Learn to read, stay in school, WORK, protect the environment is recycle, learn about nutrition. COME ON PEOPLE!!!!
brightseat_bully – like i said i went to school with Aaron and he did!!!
What is going on with our people are our issues and in 2009 you can not keep blaming what happen years ago. If I do not succeed, it because of me that I don’t succeed; when President Obama (show him respect) looks in the mirror he is Black man. When white Americas looks at him he is Black! Not only is he black but his wife is a Dark Skinned women.
What does it matter if his father was a slave in America or not.
Truth be told we don’t know if his ancestors in Africa were slaves, do you not remember OUR history, WE enslaved US before Europeans did. WE sold US to the Europeans. So in theory WE started the Slave mentality…WE SHOULD BE WORKING TOGETHER AND NOT TRYING TO TEAR US DOWN, WHICH IS WHAT AARON’S WORDS IS DOING!!!!
It’s a real shame that so many people cry for a world that is colorblind, yet they themselves are so color-sighted! Besides, I think many have missed the main points – “no dramatic changes coming from Obama” and that the ‘political system in the US is a sham’. I think McGruder and others like him have a right to express their opinion. Why pay to see someone who is very caustic while expressing their views? Why would the host/audience bring up the color-factor? What difference does it really make? Does the color of a man’s skin or his ethnicity really affect his ability to perform a job?
I feel that the task set before Mr. Obama is great and that big changes will not be immediately recognized; even with the best of intentions. It’s funny that someone called him a “sock puppet”. Not “ha-ha” funny, but the makes-you-think funny. I’m a conspiracy theorist by nature, possibly maintaining the number 2 spot. (McGruder seems to have the number 1 spot!) And I feel that the political system is somewhat crazy – for lack of a better term. After reading John Grisham’s “The Brethren”, you will see why I feel they way I do. I’m currently reading “The Appeal” by said author. Even though it’s fiction, I would not be surprised if some of this stuff really happens.
This *****hole, jerk, ignorant negro is a disgrace to inteeligent black folk. Does he not know that the African slave was inslaved by every nation on the planet. Black folk became light skinned through European and Spanish bloodline. He and his show are a total minus to the black community. His show is a joke and I banned my 13 year old daughter
from watching that igornant show long ago. For all the blood sweat and tears our ancestors went through, you mean to tell me that the first black president is not black enough because his mother is white. Many of black people in our community are mixed with white, Latin, Asian and everything else. Does that make you less black than those with two black parents?. Any body who believes that don’t black well. 1percent black blood makes you black. Are you suppose to not love your 1 non-black parent?, no way. Barack was and is a blessing to black people and all people by God almighty. He is one of us BLACK AND PROUD. Black folk are the first human god brought fourth on the planet, black history begins in Ethiopia- Egypt-ancient Israel is and will always be the original place god gave to the Ethiopians before the invasion of the European Jew and Arab man. We are the choosen tribe of Dan. We are the descendants of Abram, Issac, Moses, David, Jacob, and the greatest gift to mankind… Jesus the black Hebrew Israelite and a many host of other important figtures. Black I speak the truth, if you don’t know now you do. We come from greatness. Disobeying god got us in our own hell. He promises if we trust him again he will bring us back home to OUR ISRAEL OF THE BLACKS. So instead of being ignorant to Barack learn your history and know lite
skin, dark skin we are still black folk.
McGruder’s on-point. Obama does not come with the guilt of America’s parti*****tion in the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade. Some speculate about “possible” slave experiences in Kenya. But that is not the issue.
If global enslavement were at the heart of the matter, virtually every people at some point in their past can make that claim. Whether one talks about Jews under the Third Reich or Western European slaves “thralls” captured by 8th century Norse raiders, slavery has a ubiquitous past. Heck for all you Seiko watch-wearing folk, the term seiko was the term given to Japanese slaves exported to China in the 3rd century.
We are a country that readily points its finger at the wrongs of other nations, past and present, while not yet coming to grips with our own. It is a step in the right direction. But let’s not get it twisted. We will not see the wounds of our jaded history healed until African American share equitably in America’s unfolding story and a product of its darkest moment – a descendant of American slavery – occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
Goooooooooooooooooooooooo Aaron!!!!!
Keep on telling the truth Brutha!!! Keep doing what you do!!! From reading alot of the comments on here, you can tell who the ” sleepers ” are the ones that would turn their backs on you!!!
Its wonderful to see that some other ” African-American” see’s the political system in the United Snakkkes of America for what it really is. Bull*****!!! Wake the hell up people, you actually believe that in 2000 the Bush election came down to the state where his brother just happens to be the Gov? Was this just coincidental<<<<?? If you think so,shame on you for not using your own damn brain!!! Give ole girl her five dollars back, better yet, give me her address and ill send her $20. Obama doesnt not represent me!!!! He is a cousin to ***** Cheney & Harry Truman,( look it up for yourselves) He is not the desendent of a slave!!! His father was not a slave even in Africa nor any of his relatives… damn yall killin a sista on here….He can trace his lineage on his maternal & paternal side. Well past his great grandmother!!! He was raised by a white woman, in a white hood!!! Not a sista, from the hood, so if you just use commmon sense, HOW THE HECK DOES HE REPRESENT THE AVERAGE "BLACK AMERICAN"? You all are not looking at this logically!! You just see in the physical realm a black man!!! And as far as this country being past racism.. Just tell me this, since Obama’s the HNIC, will he give black folks our 40 acres & mule??? Probably NOt!!! After all he is the most powerful man on the planet!!! Or is he?? CTFU** All I can say is MY PEOPLE Please wake UP!!! Open your eyes & please Wake the F*** UP!!!!
I’m sorry he used the term “not black enough” DAMNIT!!! Barack Obama could take you tomorrow to a hill in Kenya and introduce you to his African grandma living in the hills of Kenya. He got an aunt in public housing about to be kicked out cuz she’s an immigrant. McGruder is not wholly wrong though. He IS pointing out something though. Barack Obama does not have the lineage of Africans in AMERICA and so he resonates more strongly with the IMMIGRANT experience than with the post enslavement experience. He also grew up in a white household and grew up briefly in an Indonesian stepfather’s household. He has a variety of experiences that don’t make him one of “us” but which make him more like ALL OF US in America than this country can really accept. Later… Obama gravitated towards African Americans seeking to embrace their identity as his own.. and he has some of that.. other parts of him are like an American guy with a very down to earth “Oh shucks” attitude and it helps him relate to whites. And when Obama strides.. you can see he’s got the walk. There’s a lot there.. and he is one of us because of the accident of being born to a person of African descent and also because he embraces the so-called “us” culture.. the black american culture. So MacGruder COULD have made a good point.. instead he did what a lot of blacks tried to do last year which was to alienate Obama from BLACKNESS… how the HELL can you alienate a man with his BLACK AFRICAN FATHER’S NAME from BLACKNESS???
It hurts me to see MacGruder go that way because I value the man’s perspectives and harsh criticism … sometimes BRUTAL and much needed critiques of what’s going on.. but just as he spoke in such vague and circular terms the young brother couldn’t really get where he was coming from, so too is his *****ysis of what SHOULD be kind of shaky! That said… Michelle Obama is as he said.. a descendant of the Africans Enslaved in the USA… I could see that Obama was going to be forced into the pretzel he is now in(though I’m STILL holding out hope he’s got all these folks in a rope a dope.. Netanyahu.. Achmedenijad.. Putin.. Merkel.. Hannity… Chavez… Ingraham.. Karzai… Limbaugh.. in a rope a dope that he’s gonna unfurl by new year’s)… there are too many competing interests with too much money, influence, and control over the political system for a BLACK man to have walked into that seat and just come in and UPEND the system. No way in HELL was that going to happen..dayum they even had some black man heretofore referred to as that NEGRO FROM ARIZONA(whose name MUST be found out and distributed throughout the community as soon as possible)who showed up at one of the Obama town halls with a long piece. This negro disgraced himself by doing that and making some loud mouthed rant tot he reporter that sounded just like the cracker who was no doubt pulling his puppet strings. May this NEGRO never know fast food that is not spit in!!!
Anyway.. F all that.. Obama can’t make change right now… whitey is up in arms over the CONCEPT that this brother is even in the White House! And damnit…. they’ve had THREE of these tea party organized protests.. Apr 15.. July 4th.. September 12 and they got another one coming up on Oct 17.. they’re building up their organizations and getting out in the streets calling their congressmen and raising all kinds of hell.. meanwhile black america can’t overturn what is happening in Mississippi and South Carolina or Georgia with the numbers we have? We can’t put a few MILLION people in the streets across this country to say “we don’t all love or like what Obama is doing.. but y’all better STFU cuz non-violence is a TWO WAY STREET!” By the way.. can we get some NON drug dealing bruthaz to to make SURE you get armed in the next year. There are crackaz in the south who are buying tens of thousands of rounds of ammo like they’re stocking up for a party.. guess who the PINATA is if y’all ain’t armed!!!
