After trying hurt Obama in S.C. with white folks by comparing his presidential run to Jesse Jackson, that shady Bill Clinton accused Obama of playing the race-card against him:

“I think that they played the race card on me,” Clinton said in an interview on WHYY here yesterday. “And we now know from memos on the campaign and everything that they planned to do it all along.”

Discuss…

If you voted today, leave a comment and let the Bossip family know how you feel. We expect Clinton to fall back and quit the race before Saturday if she can’t win tonight by more than 9%.

Make sure you hit up the vote today and knock her a*s out. She is running out of money and people are going to stop financing a campaign that she cannot realistically win.

Here is Governor Rendell who is one of Hillary Clinton’s biggest supporters praising Minister Farrakhan in Philly in 1997. Rendell is one of the leading Clinton mafia members who blasted Obama for his association with his pastor.

The Clinton mafia and some media outlets (Fox/ABC) have been trying to play Obama with gotcha ‘guilt by association’ politics .

Director Michael Moore came out today and endorsed Obama while riding on Clinton:

I’ve watched Senator Clinton and her husband play this game of appealing to the worst side of white people, but last Wednesday, when she hurled the name “Farrakhan” out of nowhere, well that’s when the silly season came to an early end for me. She said the “F” word to scare white people, pure and simple. Of course, Obama has no connection to Farrakhan. But, according to Senator Clinton, Obama’s pastor does — AND the “church bulletin” once included a Los Angeles Times op-ed from some guy with Hamas! No, not the church bulletin!

Is there a different “controversial association” standard being applied to Obama by white folks? Discuss…

A new Newsweek poll shows that shady Hillary Clinton trailing Barack Obama by nearly 20 percentage points among Democrats nationally. Watching the debate, we were going to say Obama needs to ‘Man-Up’ but everything seems to be clickin’.

After Pennsyvania, we expect Clinton to drop out of the race if Obama keeps her win under double digits.

It’s time for her to be a true patriot and fall back, just give it up, it’s ova.

Tavis finally “sat down”:

“Well, you did it. This isn’t the way you wanted it to happen, but it happened anyway. Just like I knew it would,” begins an open letter from veteran radio personality Tom Joyner to Tavis Smiley.

It’s the latest in ongoing drama that followed Joyner’s announcement Friday that Smiley will end his twice-a-week commentaries on the syndicated morning show.

When the news broke, folks speculated that he couldn’t handle the backlash he’s been getting from blacks over his criticism of Barack Obama. Although Smiley released a statement saying he was leaving to focus on future projects under his company, The Smiley Group, Inc., Joyner isn’t buying it.

‘We all know that isn’t the real reason he’s leaving the show,’ Joyner writes in the open letter, ‘The real reason is that he can’t take the hate he’s been getting regarding the Barack issue — hate from the black people that he loves so much. He needed to feel the love. We all do, whether it’s from our radio audience or from people we know personally. He wasn’t feeling any love, so he quit.’ Continue »

Colin gives a shout out to our guy Obama:

Colin Powell says he’s considering all three candidates, ‘I have not decided who I will vote for yet.’ Powell said some of the things said over the years by Rev. Jeremiah Wright are ‘deplorable, and he praised the way Barack Obama has handled the controversy over the senator’s former pastor. ‘I think that Sen. Obama handled the issue well,’ Powell said. ‘He didn’t look the other way. He didn’t wait for the, for the, you know, for the storm to go over. He went on television, and I thought, gave a very, very thoughtful, direct speech. And he didn’t abandon the minister who brought him closer to his faith.’”

Everyone knows Barack’s got heart. Colin needs to stop perpetratin’ and just endorse Obama. Whether he goes public with it or not, we can guess which way Powell will vote.

YES WE CAN!!!!

Thandie Newton may put her career on the line as she is in the final negotiations to star as that no good, sell out, sociopathic heffah Condoleeza Rice in the Oliver Stone biopic on George W. Bush.

Here they go again, trying to rewrite history – but as long as there’s no unholy swirly action between dumba*s Dubya and Cu*ti in the film, we’ll be cool.

According to a study, Hip Hop songs are glorifying the use of drugs.

“Rap music is glamorizing drug use, according to a study by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, who found a sixfold increase in drug references in songs over the past two decades.

“This is an alarming trend, as rap artists are role models for the nation’s youth, especially in urban areas. Many of these young people are already at risk and need to get positive messages from the media,” [study author] Herd said.

She and her colleagues analyzed 341 lyrics from the most popular rap songs between 1979 and 1997. During that time, references to drugs increased sixfold, and there was an increase in songs featuring positive attitudes toward drugs and the consequences of drug use, and an increase in references of drug use to signify glamour, wealth and sociability. In addition, there was a significant change in the types of drugs mentioned in rap songs.”

We do remember Grandmaster Flash’s “White Lines”….There may be some truth here. However, the same comparison could be made for glamorization of prescription drug use on television. That’s got to be up by at least tenfold since 1979. Hip hop is always the scapegoat for some bullsh*t.

After endorsing that shady Hillary Clinton, 50 Cent has turned a new cheek and supports our boy Barack:

“I heard Obama speak. He hit me with that he-just-got-done-watching-’Malcolm X,’ and I swear to God, I’m like, ‘Yo, Obama!’ I’m Obama to the end now, baby!”

“To be honest, I haven’t been following that anymore. I lost my interest,” he said. “I listened to some of the debates and things that they were saying, and I just got lost in everything that was going on…Don’t look for my vote, for me to determine nothing on that. Just say, ’50 Cent, he don’t know, so don’t ask Fiddy.’ I just think there’s people that might not be ready for an African-American president. It’ll be an issue, believe it or not.”

“You’ve got to be conscious of racism, period. And it’s still there. We don’t deal with it as often as my grandparents did. My grandparents grew up in South Carolina, so they experienced the heart of that.”

We see Bugsy has tried to step it up a notch. SMH.

We know everyone has been missing this character. Your boy Pastor Manning with all his preacher swag had a chance to condemn his brotha, Barack Obama, on Fox last night.

Is it just us or Pastor Manning doesn’t make any damn sense? The sh*t is funny though.

If you missed Manning’s classic ’54 Double D’ sermon which caught the attention of that shady Fox News, Click here

Barack Obama went on the View and discussed how he handles those shady Clintons:

“You know, I’m a pretty tough – I’m skinny but I’m tough. I think that the way to handle attacks, wherever they’re coming from – and, you know, there’ve been some tough punches thrown in this Democratic primary … – the way I like to handle attacks is to answer honestly, swiftly, forcefully and truthfully. I think the truth is a powerful weapon.”

He is correct the truth is a powerful weapon. Fu*k Hillary Clinton and her lyin’ ass. YES WE CAN!!!!
