actually, Enrico, if you will remember, it was i who called Obama a bum way before the elections. he is not my boy, lest you think so. i said that he was a rank opportunist and sellout for the way he threw Rev Wright under the bus. i was particularly distressed, since, to this day, i agree with the preponderant majority of the issues Wright raised. and, people can call me a racist for agreeing that there are differences in the way races see and do things. as he mentioned, when i watch college football, and turn to a game involving teams from Idaho and places like wisconsin, i hear structured, stolid anthems being played by marching bands keeping rigid Teutonic timing. when i watch Southern, or Grambling, or Morgan State, i see a guy witha tuba kicking his heels above his head and bounding along joyfully. white folks look and wonder aloud"what the heck is he doing, and how does he do it?" that is a part of the thoughts of the Rev Wright, and nobody in their right minds can dispute it.

On the contrary, dread, I would call you an honest and honorable person, and if you allow it, to count you among my friends, cuz' a real friend will tell me the truth to my face, instead of telling me one thing and slitting a knife behind my back at the first opportunity, as Obama did with the reverend. I blame that betrayal of his on the political correctness pervading the american political landscape, where people are forced to play the part of hypocrites in order to gain votes with the establishment.

actually, Enrico, here is my take on that. it is not Kanye West's fault that such a debacle befell the wonderful abyss of television. it is the fault of America, and their penchant for hero worship. Kanye West is a guy who can sing and perform. his comfort level is in the recording studio, or on stage. but America believes that since he is an "artist", he surely must have sterling qualities of all kinds. so, they are horrified when a bum, and bumpkin, shows his TRUE colors to the world. the fact that he is loathsome, ill mannered, uncivilised, egotistical, and rough as a bear's ass comes as no surprise to me. i am sorry if America is so disappointed, but the question becomes "how many more athletes need to be outed for cheating, how many musicians for drug abuse, politicians for corruption, before people realise that maybe, just maybe, these guys would be just like other people if God had not smiled on them and given them outrageous talents?"
