Friday Open Thread
"Jesse loves me!"
"He REALLY loves me!"
I'll bet a box of Krispy Kreme donuts that Bill O'Reilly will call ColorofChange a racist hate organization and he'll talk about how the gangsta rapper NAS loves the n-word so much that he wanted to name his album that but the good folks at Walmart took a stand against such racist filth.
Rhymeswithsnitch.com excerpted JJ's baby mama's comments about his contemptible on-air attack of Obama, as told to the National Enquirer:
If that's the case, why would you want your baby around them at all? Maybe they don't want to be around Ashley because Karin Stanford is ca-razy. Maybe they want to wait until the little girl becomes an adult so they don't have to deal with her crazy momma.
This saga is another reason to discourage extramarital affairs. Look at the confusion created for the CHILDREN! [I know, B4 I get responses-some co-family relationships do work.] I'm just sayin' . . .
When the story first broke about her and Jesse, I thought she was younger - you know like in her early to late 20s. Finding out she was nearly 40 alerted me to the fact that she got pregnant on purpose. Now he shouldn't have been fornicating and barebacking it either - he is married after all - but still...
She got pregnant on purpose, not because she wanted to marry him but because she wanted to get paid without working for the next 18-20 years. I also thought that she and JJ unabashedly parading themselves in the WH under the guise of Jesse giving Billy Jeff 'spiritual' advice (ha!) during the Lewinsky fiasco was terribly shameless.
Nas ain't even on my radar; in fact, he's so far down my list, he ain't even on my list.
But I agree that all of them are scandalous, each and every one of them.
Oh, I believe she thought that he was going to leave his wife. Especially after The National Enquirer mess.
I still ask men.....he had FIVE CHILDREN. He's not poor. Why the hell didn't he have a vasectomy? If you KNOW, you don't keep it in your pants...why set yourself up for this possibility?
But, woman gets paid every month and Jesse has a relationship with HIS daughter.
IF my father had an outside child AFTER I WAS GROWN....
I, um, I'm not saying that I'm big enough to want a relationship with said child.
He can help all he wants, but he should expect to be criticized for past behavior.
Again I say he's wack...
I don't care how he tried to justify his actions & reasons behind trying to call his album that, when we as Black people, use that word, especially in mixed circles or public venues, it gives Whitey more of a validation to use it too...period.
I can't believe that Color of Change & Move On would even co-sign w/ him on anything...it makes them lose credibility, not gain it.
"And to tell you the truth, even if Jesse took Ashley to see his family, it would have to be a chaperoned visit because I would literally be afraid to leave my baby alone with them. They are so dysfunctional, there is no telling what they would do or say to her."
-Then WTF are you complaining about?
-Welcome to Celebrity Deathmatch.
My money is riding on Jesse Jackson's wife.
I always had a problem with this story because of WHO owns the National Enquirer - Hillpatine supporter and Bubba Business partner RON BURKLE.
It was always curious to me how, week after week, there was some story about Edwards, then Obama in The Enquirer, but NOTHING about Hillpatine.
So, while I'm not saying this isn't true, let's just say I have the tinfoil hat on, and could this be related to THIS TIME STORY ON POSSIBLE OBAMA RUNNING MATES.
Just wondering out loud.
http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,859...
I'm not making this up.
This is Obama's curse.
Some folks don't 'trust' Obama because he doesn't seem to have any frailties.
Yet, the double-edged sword they'll never admit to:
If he had just ONE major skeleton..
HE'D BE TOAST.
He's gotta be Jackie Robinson, yet some want to punish him for being Jackie Robinson.
He didn't provide meaning he just repeated "He looks too good" when I asked what that meant.
I'll see him next month and see where he stands then.
Now what we see running for POTUS is a BRILLIANT [yes I went straight there], poised, confident, very well-spoken [ notice I avoided articulate :>)], personable, GOOD LOOKING, Black man . And he looks like he's WINNING, at this point. WELL, "we" jes cain't get our head wrapped around this!!!!
Whew! (Deep breaths!)
Well said. Puffy has said comments, used the N word etc. and walks around with a Vote or Die shirt on and for the most part were cool with it. No ones perfect, and NAS has his issues. But geting people out to vote, Im cool with
Sorry, i know its a reach, and I respectfully disagree with you. Anyone who can get blackfolk out to vote, and at least TRY, i can live with. No ones perfect, and what Diddy does and who he does it with behind close doors I doubt has an impact on anyone's political views..Im jus sayin.
That being said, I wander if you share the same views of people who are trying to get people involved, or does this perceived resentment seem to be just for rappers.
I couldnt agree more with you. Whoopi, Nas, J, anyone defending the use of that term to me I honestly think are setting us ALL BACK. I wasnt disrespected, I enjoy healthy debate, and fullly acknowledge that I will not see I to eye with everybody.
My point was , and its by know means perfect, if Nas is out there trying, its something. The worst thing I heard this campaign came from the Identity Thieveing rapper Earl Simmons AKA DMX.
I kid you not, when asked if he planned on voting, and if he knew who Barack Obama was, this is was the result
XXL:Are you following the presidential race?
DMX : Not at all.
XXL:You’re not? You know there’s a Black guy running, Barack Obama and then there’s Hillary Clinton.
DMX :His name is Barack?!
XXL:Barack Obama, yeah.
DMX :Barack?!
XXL:Barack.
DMX :What the f-ck is a Barack?! Barack Obama. Where he from, Africa?
XXL:Yeah, his dad is from Kenya.
DMX :Barack Obama?
XXL:Yeah.
DMX :What the f-ck?! That ain’t no f-ckin’ name, yo. That ain’t that n-gga’s name. You can’t be serious. Barack Obama. Get the f-ck outta here.
XXL:You’re telling me you haven’t heard about him before.
DMX :I ain’t really paying much attention.
XXL:I mean, it’s pretty big if a Black…
DMX :Wow, Barack! The n-gga’s name is Barack. Barack? N-gga named Barack Obama. What the f-ck, man?! Is he serious? That ain’t his f-ckin’ name. Ima tell this n-gga when I see him, “Stop that bullsh-t. Stop that bullsh-t” [laughs] “That ain’t your f-ckin’ name.” Your momma ain’t name you no damn Barack.
XXL: So you’re not following the race. You can’t vote right?
DMX: Nope.
DMX: Nope.
That's just so sad.
