Kanye, Go West -- and Keep Going
Remember how Kanye West informed the country that "George Bush doesn't care about black people" in the wake of Katrina?

Well, it looks like at least one black person doesn't like Kanye West. In the wake of the Video Music Awards debacle Sunday night, President Obama said today (in a supposedly "off-the-record" moment), "Kanye West is a jackass."
Finally, a statement that unites the nation (Kelly Clarkson basically said the same thing)!
Who knows, maybe this was an unintentional-intentional "Sister Souljah" moment that allowed Obama to get a do-over on the "Cambridge police acted stupidly" line. Yes, I'm cynical enough to believe that.
But so what? Whether the intent was political or not, it's the president speaking truth!
Rep. Joe Wilson, can I get an "Amen"!!
