P Diddy has just posted an outrageously intellectual (insert sarcasm) blog on why we should not vote for John McCain and why Sarah Palin is a bad choice. The sad thing about all of this is people actually listen to P Diddy. Even sadder, a lot of people have the same reasoning skills. Warning! The following video contains foul language and you will be dumber for having seen it:

Multi-million hip hop music producer Sean Combs, known as P Diddy, has been forced to ground his private jet because of rising fuel prices.

Sean "Diddy" Combs is a multi-millionaire mogul who leads a life most can only dream of. So why is he pissed off at a rinky-dink website that sells cufflinks? We're told Diddy unleashed his big-time lawyers on a website called Cuff-Daddy.com, a small, family-owned cufflink seller. They fired off a letter telling them that the business' name was way too similar to his. Wait -- didn't he change his name to Diddy years ago? We hear the business gets its name from the owner of the company -- he's just a proud dad who sells cufflinks. The owner of the...

David Beckham and Justin Timberlake are the targets of an alleged Al-Qaeda murder plot. An internet video, which has been posted on YouTube, brands Becks, 32, and JT, 26, as criminal influences on young Muslims. Fellow footballers Wayne Rooney and Thierry Henry, as well as rapper P Diddy are also mentioned. The warning footage was posted by a Glasgow-based website named after Al-Qaeda that encourages attacks on Westerners. In the clip, an image of David is shown under the caption: 'What made u among the losers?' reports the News Of The World. A caption across the screen threatens: 'Every soul...

NEW YORK - Macy's has pulled from its shelves and its Web site two styles of Sean John hooded jackets, originally advertised as featuring faux fur, after an investigation by the nation's largest animal protection organization concluded that the garments were actually made from a certain species of dog called "raccoon dog." "First these jackets were falsely advertised as faux fur, and then it turned out that the fur came from a type of dog," said Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of the Humane Society of the United States. Pacelle added that the issue is an "industry-wide problem" and its...

I will never understand the "Rap" culture or whatever you want to call it. First Kanye West with his off the wall comments about President Bush saying "President Bush doesnt care about black people." The question I have for Kanye where is the evidence of this??? Im sick of people saying "If it would have been a white majority in New Orleans the president would have done something sooner." Please! Well lets see the Mayor of New Orleans and he was the one that could have taken huge steps to get those people out of there but he didnt. He...

Fonda flick doesn't fly in Hardin County By JOHN FRIEDLEIN The owner of Hardin County's two movie theaters is refusing to show the nation's top-grossing movie. Like many veterans, Ike Boutwell has an issue with "Monster-in-Law" star Jane Fonda. On the ticket window at the Elizabethtown Movie Palace is a sign that tells movie goers the cinema will not show the film because of what she did in Vietnam. Below the message are pictures of Fonda clapping with a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft crew in 1972. The sign on the marquee outside Showtime Cinemas in Radcliff reads: "No Jane Fonda movie...

From Maureen Dowd's brother Kevin, a salesman who lives in Montgomery County, Md., here is a recent e-mail message, trimmed for space, he sent to friends: "Ladies and Gentlemen, Now, just as four years ago, I breathe a huge sigh of relief and rejoice in the common sense of the American voting public. Congratulations to President Bush for winning re-election in a poker game played with a stacked deck. No candidate, including Richard Nixon, ever had to endure the biased and unfair tactics of our major media in their attempt to influence the outcome of an election. He never complained,...

I recently received an email from a reader advising me on the use of propaganda. He found my style similar to that of Ann Coulter--lots of name-calling such as hippies, femmies, and commies--and thought that I should be more "subtle." "Leftist-hippy is not funny," he wrote. I couldn't agree more. There is nothing more sad, more frightening than a leftist hippy. He then gave me suggestions for more obscure references, for coining my own phrases, and becoming a paradigm of propaganda expertise. His suggestions were studied, thought out, and purposeful. Trouble is, I really like Ann Coulter. She is on...

No link to this yet but will be one shortly...was on Headline News....estimates show P.Diddy and Russel Simmons "Vote or Die" project failed miserably yesterday and was actually over shadowed by the Christian Youth Vote 4 to 1.

ANN ARBOR (APUPI) In a catastrophe certain to reverberate throughout American society for decades, millions of the MTV generation have succumbed suddenly in the past twenty-four hours, after ignoring rapper P. Diddy's and Senator Hillary Clinton's frantic warnings over the past weeks. "I feel like I failed," said the morose musician. "I called millions of young people in the hopes that we could avoid this, but somehow the message just didn't get through." The unprecedented die-off has resulted in horrific scenes all across the nation. Bodies are stacking up on college campuses, in pizza parlors, malls, and bars, and the...

We're Not Spain! ©2004 Patrick Rooney Any state that does not mess with our security has naturally guaranteed its own security.--The Coward Well, Senator Kerry finally got the ultimate endorsement —from the Coward. The endorsement came in the form of the Coward’s eighteen minute poison-tongued tribute to the Bush family. Make no mistake about it—the Coward does intend to sway our elections, and we know in which direction. But I believe the Coward has made a small error in judgment: You see, we’re not Spain! We all know that Spain cowered to the Coward. They backed off, and put a...

I'm not much of a photoshoper but I would really like to post pictures around my work on Tuesday with something to the effect of "Vote or P Diddy will kill you." Can anyone with some know-how help me out?

American President George W. Bush has topped an unlikely poll in Britain - as this year's top screen villain. Bush won the dubious accolade for his unauthorized appearance in Michael Moore's anti-Bush documentary Fahrenheit 9/11. The politician beat out the likes of Doc Ock, played by Alfred Molina, in Spider-Man 2; The Texas Chainsaw Massacre's Leatherface; Andy Serkis' Gollum from Lord Of The Rings trilogy; and Elle Driver, the assassin played by Daryl Hannah in Kill Bill. Almost 10,000 people voted in the poll, conducted by Total Film Magazine. Leonardo DiCaprio has joined P. Diddy, Brad Pitt and Ashton Kutcher...

Jesse Lee Peterson, founder and president of BOND, the Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny, and organizer of The ‘Black’ List Campaign, today accused rap mogul Sean “P.

Citizen Change, with its “Vote or Die” slogan, is conducting a three-day “get-out-the-vote” initiative geared towards minority voters in swing states. The tour began...

The outcome of the hard-fought presidential election between President Bush and Sen. John Kerry may lie with an unlikely group of must-have voters: the suburban sports guy, the single girl, the hip-hop dude, the concerned mom, the new ethnic, the churchgoer and the fans of a raunchy shock jock. "In an election in which the pickings (of swing voters) are slim -- and they are slim in this one -- (the candidates) have got to go where there might be potential,'' said Mark Baldassare, pollster and senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California. "These are voters who can...

NEW YORK -- Hip-hop mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs is following the lead of President Bush and Sen. John Kerry by taking his get-out-the-vote campaign to the swing states. "If you are going to play the game, you need to play it all the way," Combs said in a telephone interview Saturday. "And if you talking about flexing your power, and you ain't flexing in the swing states, then you ain't flexing your power." Combs' Citizen Change initiative will launch a three-day get-out-the-vote drive starting Tuesday in Milwaukee and Detroit, followed by rallies in Cleveland, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Miami. Combs...

If you're confused and need direction this political season, hold tight, because you can be sure that a rock star will be along shortly to show you the way. Musicians, some loosely defined, are mobilizing big-time this year to oust Bush. A CD, titled "Rock Against Bush, Vol. I," was released earlier this year, purportedly to raise money for organizations which encourage young people to vote. Bands such as Sum 41, Offspring, New Found Glory and Jello Biafra with D.O.A. are included on the compact disc – I believe the latter is also included on the dessert menu.

Laura Bush delivered a diss to Sean "P. Diddy" Combs by refusing to appear alongside the hip-hop heavyweight at last night's grand opening of the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, sources said. Combs was supposed to join the first lady, actress Angela Bassett, U2 frontman Bono, Ohio Gov. Bob Taft, Sen. Mike DeWine, Black Entertainment Television CEO Bob Johnson and other dignitaries at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, but Bush's office nixed the photo-op with Combs. "Her reps made it very clear to Freedom Center that they would not have Laura Bush appearing in the same photo-op as P. Diddy,"...

P. Diddy, lately a.k.a. Citizen Combs, caught up with former first lady and current junior senator from New York Hillary Clinton at the Democratic convention last week. As they discussed the importance of young folks getting out to vote, Clinton reminisced about old times, and Diddy even snuck in a compliment about her style sense. P. Diddy: We are here with the legendary Hillary Clinton, from my home state of New York. Thank you for talking to us. Hillary Clinton: I am delighted and I am delighted by what you're doing. Diddy: Thank you. We're not going to get into...

Thanks to all of the very attentive Freepers. No excuse! The caps are off...

Honduran Officials Defend Diddy by Josh Grossberg Oct 31, 2003, 10:30 AM PT Is P. Diddy's sweatshop scandal just a bunch of puffery? Officials in Honduras certainly think so, saying they've found no evidence so far to support claims by a workers' rights group that a factory that makes Sean Combs' signature clothing line has violated that country's labor laws. On orders from President Ricardo Maduro to launch an investigation, Honduras' Labor Minister, German Leitzelar, conducted a tour of the Southeast Textiles factory in Choloma with a group of inspectors, according to wire reports. Leitzelar found no proof of the...
