Heres an opportunity to relive your high-school poetry classes.
First Lady Michelle Obama has scheduled a poetry evening for Wednesday, and shes invited several poets, including a successful Chicago poet and rapper, Lonnie Rashid Lynn, Jr., AKA Common. However, Lynn is quite controversial, in part because his poetry includes threats to shoot police and at least one passage calling for the burn[ing] of then-President George W. Bush.

Dark and lonely on a summer’s night.
Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.
Watchdog barking. Do he bite?
Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.
Slip in his window. Break his neck.
Then his house I start to wreck.
Got no reason. What the heck?
Kill my landlord. Kill my landlord.
C-I-L-L my land lord!
All ASS and NO class.
"She doin' everything she can for a man and a baby
Drivin' herself crazy like the astronaut lady."
Common (sense) was one if my favorite rappers before Mos Def, Kanye, and all the other losers got together and formed a PAC.
Also, Common took a ton of flak for a pro-life rhyme he wrote, and also for another cut he wrote taking gangsta rappers to task, in possibly his most famous track to date.
Says much about the Obamas that they would want to promote this no-class, insulting, filth.
“I’m Po (poor), as Edgar Allen”
“But I’m a poet when I’m freestylin’”
The nation is so violated on a daily basis, it won’t even react any more.
This needs Drudge handling.
michelle is a classless pig.....
He is a Christian and has been a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago led by the Rev. Jeremiah Wright since his childhood

Ahh. Makes sense now. The Obama’s know him from when they USED to go to church.
I am sick of rappers thinking they are an art form or something. Speaking and talking is a basic ability, not an art.
So Hussein coming to Tucson to talk down to us (and kick off his campaign), and the leftists setting up a ridiculous “University of Civility” at the U of A meant nothing? /rhetorical
Since when is advocating burning President Bush, “Christian”?
An SNL KLAS-SIC!
Not to mention that in the beginning, they were stealing music. As it grew in popularity, so did the number of lawsuits for “ sampling” without compensation or permission.
