Video: Kanye West’s place in jackass hall of fame now secure
Hot Air ^ | SEPTEMBER 13, 2009 | ALLAHPUNDIT

Posted on 09/13/2009 9:47:56 PM PDT by RobinMasters

It’s been secure for years, actually, and not just because of the infamous “George Bush doesn’t care about black people” crack. This isn’t the first time he’s acted like a royal A-hole at an awards show; in fact, it’s not even the first time he’s rushed the stage during an acceptance speech to protest the winner. That happened a few years ago at the MTV Europe Awards. Even so, I salute him: In this season of political turmoil, Americans are finally united in hatred of his pure, preening douchebaggery. No small accomplishment.

Taylor Swift, who’s all of 19 years old, evidently was spotted “crying hysterically” backstage afterwards, although she managed to pull it together in time to reappear during Beyonce’s moment of graciousness at the end of the show. The boss has video of that. Exit quotation from Karl, imagining an Obama-orchestrated West/Swift beer summit: “Let me be clear: I didn’t watch the VMAs, so I don’t have all the facts. But Taylor Swift acted stupidly.”

He has no class and someone should have slapped him on the back of the head and told him to sit down. Where did his mom go wrong!?

(to the tune of “I am the Very Model of a Modern Major General”—Gilbert and Sullivan):

I am the very model of a modern racial activist,
I’ve no solutions of my own, except my own self-righteousness
I whine and cry and jump the gun whenever I feel somewhat sad—
Because it’s some old white man’s fault that my whole day is going bad...

He needs the same plastic surgery that his mom had—and the same result.

Well here’s another stanza :D

I wake up in the morning and I tune up for the daily yell
My righteous fury, wrath, and rage comes from a deep, unending well
And jobs—I hate the thought of work—it cuts into my time for play
Because discrimination suits last longer as a source of pay!

I had never heard of this clown until he made the George Bush doesn't care about blacks comment. He's a nobody as far as I'm concerned.

Will this hurt him. I doubt it. The types of people who are fans of this no talent AH could probably care less. Heck they have such poor taste that they probably see nothing wrong with this outrage. The guy should be treated like he's radioactive but he won't be.

The industry he works in is garbage and they cater to garbage people. They are his fans.

All I know about Kanye West is what I saw in a South Park episode.

Kanye West, Political Activist?

Snippet: "George Bush doesn't care about black people."

Please pardon Kanye West's subtlety, but these are not the words of a young, black hip-hop artist who should've been pitching his new album instead of pitching for donations for Hurricane Katrina relief funds. These are the words of a political activist. Though this new label and new role are all so, well, new, it's surely something West will have to deal with the rest of his career.

When things of this nature happen and a black person is the victim, liberals call it racism.

Will they call this racism?

That coward picked on a 19 year old girl. Shameful.

And how wonderful that Beyonce made up for it by inviting Taylor Swift back onstage to, as Beyonce said, “have her moment”. That was pure class.
