obama is white

Well ok he may not be all white but he's is just as white as he is black. if people can call him black, they can certainly call him white….so then why don’t they? why doesn't anyone say that obama is the 44th white president we've had?

it totally pisses me off that it is so much more PC to call a mixed person black rather than white. and it pisses me off that mixed people (for the most part) don’t recognize their white heritage and instead choose to embrace and identify with only their black heritage. i don't buy the bull that says that that's how society see's them, thus they're forced to see themselves as such. if biracial people would demand to be recognized as both, black AND white, sooner or later, regardless of how society viewed them in the past, we’d come around and realize the absurdity of what we’ve been doing. i don’t understand why accepting the status quo is acceptable and is not cause for outrage and contempt.

we’d never say that other minority groups should suck it up and deal because society views them as one way, even when they’re clearly another. we’d never say that it was acceptable for gay individuals to be passive and conform if they were forced to live as straight because society didn’t approve of their lifestyle. of course we’d expect them to protest the stupidity and injustice. we’d never expect them to accept society’s views as unfortunate yet absolute and unchangeable. so then why is saying that mixed people view themselves as black because society forces them to is “just the way it is” and why is no one is protesting and asking for change?


i have seen so many white parents of mixed children, celebrities included (hale berry, alesha keys, obama, mariah carey) raise their kids to identify only as black and it baffles me as to why. ok, i can't speak for the parents of the celebrities, but among my white friends i've found that to be completely true.

my daughter is mixed and although she is brown (she is not nearly as black as her father and she is not nearly as white as me) she is still considered to be just as polish and just as white as she is black and american by me and my immediate family.

it would be sad to let my child grow up without learning about and experiencing such an incredibly rich and old culture that makes up half of who she is. she is quite proud of the fact that she is polish and that her mother was born in poland and identifies as a european much more so than being american and more white than black but she'd be looked at as if she’s was crazy if she'd tell people that she's white or polish, yet no one would give it a second thought if she said she was black. that is bullshit.

and what truly pisses me off the most are ethnicity questions on questionnaires. I don't understand why in this day and age they don't have a biracial option. when she was born, the nurse who was filling out her paperwork made me chose a race to put down. i asked what would happen if i refused and she replied that she would have to choose herself by observation (meaning she would mark her as black because her skin color was not completely white). it’s not completely black either, so how can we force people to be one without the other and why do these people think that that’s acceptable?

updated lady gaga video

ok, the video is not working below. i guess youtube has taken it down. not sure why because it says that it's the OFFICIAL video posted by the record company. maybe it's cuz youtube takes down all videos that appear to be in violation before it actually verifies that the vid is legitimate and then reinstates it when it's proven otherwise.

either way, perezhilton.com has it on his site and working.

i wish there was a way to embbed videos other than google and youtube ones.

here is the link. for all of you music lovers...you have to see this vid and hear this song. it's pop genius.

new lady gaga

Look Lady Gaga has a new song. This one was my favorite from the montage I posted a while back.

here's an interesting tid bit. so gaga is going on tour and is opening for NKOTB and when they gave her the budget she was like whoa and revised it and gave it back to them with the changes she wanted to make. i guess she needed to add all of the costumes, and technology and lights, etc. bottom line is....it went waaay over budget.

and they came back to her and were like, um...sorry gaga, but this is crazy over how do you ever plan on paying for all of this. well, she came back to them and said that every night after the tour performance, she is going out and playing a set in a small club or wherever and all the $$$ from that are going to supplement the tour budget. so she is basically working and doing two tours, one to support the other and making no money on it at all.

she said that the performance is everything to her and the money is nothing to her if her performance and the show are not what she's envisioned them to be. it's all about the show.

call her pop music what you like, but that is dedication.

she kind of reminds me of a female kanye west in that respect.


This video is super 80's hot. I can totally see myself dancing to this all night at the party.

Hey can we have music on Holloween? I mean, like loud music?

If Obama wins the blacks will take over!

Take a look at this Ohio town. Obama thinks white people are trash. He's a terrorist. He's a Muslim. When you've got a negro running for president.....

And these people are dead serious.

Oh god, why are so many back road American's so fucking dumb?
