STFU, Conservatives, This rapper—we thought that we were to be united...

This rapper—we thought that we were to be united under the leader of the free world, Barack Obama, in tamping down racism and inciting violence and cop killing, certainly, and killing a former president. All those things that this rapper has glorified and really is known for, it just certainly reflects a lack of judgment on the White House’s part. And I’m saying this not as a proponent of stifling any kind of free speech. I am obviously a proponent of free speech. I’m not anti-rap. In fact, like Bret Baier, I know the lyrics to ‘Rapper’s Delight,’ too. But I am saying just common decency in the White House—wouldn’t we like to see a reflection of all that is wonderful and great, a shining city on a hill that the White House is supposed to be, with events inside of that house that reflect the patriotism and the decency and the influence of America.

Sarah Palin explaining in an interview on May 11, 2011 to Fox News’ Greta Van Susteren why she objects to Common being invited to the White House for poetry night.

Sarah Palin has no clue what the fuck Common is known for, and I doubt she even knows the lyrics to “Rapper’s Delight.” I know the lyrics to “The Angry American” by Toby Keith, so by her logic, I can’t be accused of slamming empty, flag-waving patriotism like hers ever again! Love the implication Common and the Obamas are somehow indecent, unpatriotic and un-American. Stay classy, Sarah.

There was no reasonable argument that Common shouldn’t be allowed at the White House that wasn’t dripping with racism. Plain and simple.
