I never knew it was a remix. I guess my kids won't know their songs are remixes either.

when I heard Rihanna's song "Hard", I was like, wait... that's the Jackson's "Can You Feel It" slowed down in the background (she wasn't even born when that song came out).

Yeah, that was so fucking stupid. You just know she would have said, "I would call my son a ni**e* " if she thought it would make Stokes look bad

I get so damned tired of the media pulling peoples' attention away from the root cause of a situation. They always try to draw our attention to the "shiny object" that switches the dialogue and we just get into a pissing contest over semantics.

Whether you call them thugs or not; whether or not Obama used the word; whether or not the mayor of Baltimore used the word is not the issue. Let's discuss the policies and circumstances that led to these riots we're seeing in cities across the country instead of debating ad nauseum over whether we should use a certain word or not.

The MSM news media are a joke. If integrity was cotton, you couldn't get enough from that whole lot to make a T-shirt for a piss ant.

"oh, come on"
what a self satisfied blowhard she is. who the hell is this

and while i'm at it, why don't we spend some more time talking about the bad acts of these kids and calling them names instead of dealing with the conditions that brought them here?!

i'm tired of this whole fucking sick country right now.

we are so lucky to have such amazing journalists who can dig into the root causes of our disparity.

Very objective. Just don't mess with her Starbucks.
