Obama calls Kanye West a "jack***"

I'm sure by now you've all heard about Kanye West ("George Bush doesn't like black people") interupting Taylor Swift (country music singer) during her acceptance speech at the VMA's to say that Beyonce should have won. Tonight, Terry Moran of ABC tweeted "Pres. Obama just called Kanye West a 'jack***' for his outburst at VMAs when Taylor Swift won. Now THAT'S presidential." I edited the word for my blog, but Moran didn't. Wow, I finally agree with Obama on something. Kanye was a HUGE jerk who stole a wonderful moment from a 19 year old girl on national tv. Luckily he was booed every time his name was mentioned for the remainder of the award show.

BUT...Moran was right about something. Even though Obama was right, how professional is it for the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES to call a rapper a jack***?? Aren't there more pertinent issues he could be commenting on? Shouldn't he watch his language since many young people (and his daughters) look up to him? But thank you, Obama, for stating the obvious. (insert rolling eyes smiley here) And another thing, Kanye was also a jerk when he said "George Bush doesn't like black people" during a Katrina fundraiser.

I APPLAUD Beyonce for trying to make up for the humiliation by calling Taylor back to the stage to give her acceptance speech when Beyonce won an award.

Kanye, shame on you!!!!
