A rapper named Lupe (Loopy) Fiasco (yep) decided to spice things up at
one of the Obama inaugurals:
Although Fiasco was booked as the headliner for the StartUp RockOn
concert in celebration of Obama's reelection, the 30-year-old Chicago
rapper apparently had no plans to cheer the current administration.
Instead, after taking the stage at The Hamilton in Washington, he
reportedly announced that he didn't vote for the president in the 2012
election and spent more than 30 minutes performing an anti-war song.
More details on
his "performance" here:
"At the Obama inauguration party Lupe Fiasco opened his set with his
2011 single “Words I never Said,” in which he criticizes Obama for the
president’s silence after the bombing of the Gaza strip. He rapped the
song over and over again for more than 20 minutes. “Limbaugh is a
racist, Glenn is a racist, Gaza strip was getting bombed, Obama didn’t
say s---,” he continually rhymed.
The rapper also criticizes the War on Terror and questions
the Sept. 11 attacks in the song, asking “9/11, building seven, did they
really pull it?”
I suspect that his trutherism and his comments on Limbaugh and Beck didn't get him booted offstage, but his criticism of Obama did. And although I am not a huge fan of the President, I think the song was inappropriate for the time and place. And apparently, the knucklehead just kept repeating that over and over again:
"This was not about his opinions. Instead, after a bizarrely repetitive,
jarring performance that left the crowd vocally dissatisfied,
organizers decided to move on to the next act."
Hmm, given the rather icy relationship between Obama and Benjamin Netanyahu, I'm not sure what the president "saying shit" would have accomplished with regard to Gaza.
ReplyDeleteBut it doesn't appear that we're dealing with the brightest light in the harbor here.
Why don't you try "debunking" some 9/11-related evidence, Pat? It's amusing to watch, torch-boy.
ReplyDeleteCowardly is obviously bored. Is Pat not posting enough for you to rage over? Hey, again, do you believe the planes had pods on them?
ReplyDeleteI guess Cowardly is, ironically, too cowardly to answer any questions.
ReplyDeleteYou mean questions like "what's the source of your BS that cutting torches made all of the melted iron in the dust"? He's been dodging that one for years.
ReplyDeleteCowardly indeed. No irony at all.
You mean questions like "what's the source of your BS that cutting torches made all of the melted iron in the dust"?
ReplyDeleteCritical thinkers know Pat never even made that statement.
And you know this how? When did you become an expert on all the things Pat never said?
ReplyDelete"The iron microspheres reported in the RJ Lee report could easily have been caused by the steelworkers using acetylene torches on the steel during the rescue operation." -Pat Curley, "researcher".
ReplyDelete"The source of the iron microspheres was cutting torches at the cleanup site. That's a fully documented and proven fact." -RGT, wannabe troll.
"The iron microspheres reported in the RJ Lee report could easily have been caused by the steelworkers using acetylene torches on the steel during the rescue operation."
ReplyDeletePat never said that. Why are you unable to source your claims? Is it stupidity or laziness?
