Obama was given a tour of his new pad by the most hated president in U.S. history:

U.S. President George Bush has met with President-elect Barack Obama at the White House for talks on major issues facing the United States. Mr. Bush and first lady Laura Bush welcomed the president-elect and his wife, Michelle Obama, Monday, shortly after their arrival from their home in Chicago. Mr. Bush and the president-elect talked briefly as they walked together outside the White House, pausing for pictures before entering the Oval Office for more extensive talks. They were expected to discuss the transition between their administrations, in their first meeting since last week’s election. The president and president-elect have struck a tone of cooperation in carrying out an orderly transition of power. Mr. Obama says the nation expects nothing less. As Mr. Bush and his successor met, Mrs. Bush gave a tour of the presidential residence to the incoming first lady, Mrs. Obama. Mrs. Bush’s chief of staff, Anita McBride says the two were expected to look at both the public areas and private family quarters. Mr. Obama will be sworn into office on January 20. The director of Mr. Obama’s transition team, John Podesta, said Sunday the president-elect could move quickly to reverse some of President Bush’s executive orders.

Not that we are experts on foreign policy or decreasing the national deficit, but we surely hope Obama did all he could NOT to listen to anything George W. had to offer in the form of advice. After all, George W. is only the worst president ever. SMH

Here is the First Family on election night looking at the results as they came in. Just the beautiful image of the Obama family is an attack on the ‘baby mama culture’ that is growing to be acceptable to too many of us.

Are some white folks being a little “nicer” to you since your boy Barack became President elect?

Rev. Jeremiah Wright speaks on the media’s tactics in a report by Livesteez:

Wright will be speaking at Northwestern University tonight, delivering a “State of the Black Union” address as part of the university’s Diversity Week program. The address, titled “Redeeming & Reclaiming our Community” is at 7 p.m. at Cahn Auditorium, 600 Emerson St., in Evanston.

The videos, which included Wright thundering “God d@mn America!”, dominated cable television for weeks. The public outrage that followed caused the president-elect to sever ties with his longtime spiritual leader.Wright told an audience of about 200 people at the Thursday forum that he was trying to convey the anger and desire for vengeance that people felt after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. He said the media failed to mention that he was a proud Christian who was raised in a Christian home.

“Their intention was to use me as a weapon of mass destruction, to tear down that man’s integrity,” said Wright, former pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago.

We all knew that Barack Obama was a man of greatness, but we had no idea his integrity required an entire Weapon of Mass Destruction to be torn down. We want some of what Obama’s got, because it only takes one shot of Patron for our integrity to go flying out the window. SMH at our integrity

Certified b*tch here, Danny, is being indicted for the assassination plot on Obama and other unsuccessful horrendous crimes the shaved chimp could not complete:

A federal grand jury in Memphis, has indicted two white supremacists accused of plotting to kill Democrat Barack Obama and dozens of other black people. Twenty-year-old Daniel Cowart and 18-year-old Paul Schlesselman were arrested last month, before Obama won the presidential election. They are being held without bond. They were indicted Wednesday on charges of possessing a sawed-off shotgun, planning to rob a licensed gun dealer and threatening a presidential candidate. Authorities say they plotted a killing spree that would end with them attacking Obama while dressed in white tuxedoes and top hats. Cowart’s lawyer said he had no comment. A message left for Schlesselman’s lawyer was not immediately returned.

We hope he is placed in a cell with a huge black convict, that was given a frightening name like, The Booty Bandit, Nazi Sphincter Killer or, Pink Hole Ripper.

You probably saw it live, but we feel compelled to address it. This is a video of Messy Jesse crying like a biatch when Obama became the president elect by a landslide. We can’t help but wonder if he boohoohooed out of pride that we’ve opened a new chapter with this historical moment or whether it was out of jealousy that it was not him and he still wants to rip off Obama’s sack? What do you think, Bossipers???

Since the President is indeed Black, here’s the newest from Jeezy and Nas called…”My President is Black.”

Barack’s family went off in Africa once it was announced that their blood was elected the president of America:

KOGELO, Kenya – Barack Obama’s Kenyan relatives and Africans across the continent sang, danced in the streets and wrapped themselves in U.S. flags Wednesday to cheer for America’s first black president. Kenya will party for two days, after the president declared a national holiday.

Scenes of jubilation broke out in the western village of Kogelo, where Obama’s late father was born. A group of exuberant residents picked up the president-elect’s half-brother Malik and carried him through the village. “Unbelievable!” Malik shouted, leading the family in chanting, “Obama’s coming, make way!” Obama’s step-grandmother and other relatives also poured out of the family homestead to salute a man seen by many Kenyans as a “son of the soil.” Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki declared a public holiday on Thursday in honor of Obama. Many stayed up all night or woke before dawn to celebrate his victory. Obama’s relatives and other villagers gathered around a TV set up in a garden in Kogelo, rejoicing and pumping their arms in the air. Across Africa, many are hoping an Obama presidency will help the vast continent, the poorest in the world. Obama’s victory was also likely to seal America’s reputation in the minds of many Africans as a land of staggering opportunity. “He’s in!” said Rachel Ndimu, 23, a Kenyan business student who joined hundreds of others for an election party at the residence of the U.S. ambassador to Kenya, Michael Ranneberger, which began at 5 a.m.

“I think this is awesome, and the whole world is backing him,” Ndimu said as people raised glasses of champagne.

The jubilation is certainly called for. This is election marks the beginning of the end of limitations for people of color worldwide. The African’s have every right to celebrate the victory of their Son of The Soil. And we enjoy watching them work that, twerk that.

Pop the hood to see Obama posing with his fam and the authentic jubilee video of his Kenyan family after his win… YES WE DID!! Continue »

Green Party representative Ralph Nader, who only polled 1% (513,347) of the votes, had the audacity to pose the question of whether Obama would be an Uncle Sam for America or an Uncle Tom for the big corporations. Watch as the reporter check his pasty @ss with the quickness and let’s him know that he’s been “reduced to irrelevancy.”
