(Rapper) 50 (Cent) calls Bush 'a gangsta' (Calls Bush 'Incredible,' Would've Voted for Him)

Posted on 11/28/2005 12:06:03 PM PST by nickcarraway

50 Cent and Kanye West are the only ones selected to be GQ's "Men of the Year" who have no false modesty about it — both of the hip-hop stars justify their big egos in the mag's pages. But they also have more on their minds than just themselves. Like George W. Bush, for one. 50 thinks the president is "incredible ... a gangsta." "I wanna meet George Bush, just shake his hand and tell him how much of me I see in him," 50 told GQ. If the rapper's felony conviction didn't prevent him from voting, 50 said he would have voted for Bush. Meanwhile, Kanye basically called Bush a racist on national television, and has since rethought his strategy for speaking out. "When NBC edited it out on the West Coast, that was a wakeup call," West told the magazine. "It let people know how censored we still are. This is supposed to be America, but you can't get your opinion out. There's all kinds of things I want to say, but I need to pace myself, to make sure my opportunities to say these things aren't taken away too abruptly."

I'm kind of interested in just what he sees in Dubya that he sees in himself...

You are right. Following the money.

...because defending President Bush is such a sure-fire way of winning the support of the rap community.

Fifty is about to find out what real censorship is...these sort of statements will NOT be tolerated by the leftist music industry.

...seems wrong to me, too...this is not a net gain. It's another click of a descending ratchet.

If Hillary and dems get their way, 50 will be able to vote in 06.

This one's so easy...

Phitty has nothing left in the bag of tricks to offend anyone anymore. Except this: declare for the President and now you've really pissed 'em off.

Great publicity move!

"It is wrong on many levels....many. But here is the problem...if you mention them, you're a racist. If you try to parallel, you're a racist. How ever you try to explain it, you're a racist. You cannot speak out against anything of the black culture, or some out there will label you."

With an answer like that, I can tell your just a big'ol racist.

(joking of course)

Looks like he really does support the President (I'm still in shock):

The following quote from this site.

"There is a lot of pressure on Bush as president of our country. A lot of things going on, this doesn't happen so often all the things that have happened under his presidency."

After doing a web search, I noticed he's already being criticized now, too.

ROFL! That's the funniest picture of president Bush (purple suit), I've seen yet. Go figure on a rapper guy having something positive ("gangsta"= positive in rap-speak?) to say about him.

The left is going to make it tough on this guy. He's crossed the line- They do not tolerate anyone expressing support for anything other than THE PARTY(democrat).
