That band of dimwits over at the NBRA, National Black Republican Association, or a more fitting term – Nothing But Retarded A**holes – are about to unleash some detestable radio ads to discredit Barack Obama. This one is called “Arrogant Obama”:

“Bitter is what Obama called blacks and whites who love God. Racist is what Obama called his white grandmother who raised him and made sacrifices so Obama could get a good education and become a millionaire. Obama’s friends are terrorist Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright who said innocent Americans deserved to die on September 11th. Obama is an arrogant elitist who turned his back on poor blacks and his own country.”

They are wrong on so many levels. The Republican intellect knows no integrity. It’s pathetic how they try to spin filth out of thin air. Click here to listen to these weak-ass ads pieced together by those Uncle Toms for yourselves. SMH.

A little sumthin extra: Click HERE to watch Jay-Z give “President” Bush a proper send off at the end of this clip of his set in Glastonbury.

In a show of integrity and good faith, Barack Obama is attempting to help Hillary Clinton crawl her way out of the hole that she foolishly dug herself into:

“Sen. Barack Obama has asked members of his National Finance Committee to help former rival Sen. Hillary Clinton retire the debt from her failed presidential campaign. Obama and Clinton ran a protracted race for the Democratic presidential nomination that left Clinton with a campaign debt of more than $22 million when she bowed out this month.

Obama asked [the members] to contribute to Clinton’s campaign if they were so inclined, but he did not direct them to do so.”

Could you imagine Hillary doing such a thing if the shoe was on the other foot? You’ll find no sympathy for Hillary from us. It serves her right for continuing with her campaign despite the fact that she was getting stomped. This sounds very peculiar indeed.

As fate would have it, Hillary has become Barack’s official cheerleader:

Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama is scheduled to campaign for the first time next week with former rival Hillary Clinton. Obama’s campaign Friday announced the two senators will campaign together June 27, but released no further details.

We gotta give the old bag an A for effort. Hillary Clinton pulled so many dirty little tricks during her campaign – she made it painfully obvious how desperate she was to win the nomination. Now, the time has come for Hillary to suck it up and do her best to present a united front in the face of the Republicans – but you know she’s salty than a mutha!

Jennifer Hudson can’t wait to help with Barack Obama’s campaign, but it would seem she’s waiting for some sort of VIP invitation:

“I’m so proud and excited for [Obama]. I haven’t gotten a call from them yet, but he does have my support.”

Someone’s really feeling herself these days. Jeez. What could possibly be keeping Barack from getting in contact with ole girl? Perhaps running for the highest office in the world’s most powerful nation? Just a thought, but maybe JHud ought to get her head out of the clouds, and complete that damned album she’s been working on already.
