Sunday’s fiasco at a presidential Inauguration event must have seemed like shades of Desiree Rogers to the Obama administration.
If you recall, Obama’s attention-seeking Social Secretary Desiree Rogers resigned her post after an uninvited couple crashed a White House event and got close enough to the president to take a picture with him.
On Sunday, rapper Lupe Fiasco — who has sharply criticized Obama in the past — was kicked off the stage during an anti-Obama rant at the StartUp RockOn Inauguration Celebration at the Hamilton Live.
Foreign policy reporter Josh Rogin live-tweeted the bizarre scene as it unfolded before him.
First the stage lights were cut, then Fiasco’s microphone (and the stand that it was attached to) disappeared — but none of that deterred him any. Fiasco continued to rap as the live band played on. As the crowd cheered him on, the 31-year-old rapper was quickly surrounded and dragged off the stage by Obama’s burly Secret Service agents who couldn’t care less about free speech under Big Brother [Obama]’s watch.
Maybe the Obama administration forgot about that interview that Fiasco did with MTV in which he referred to Obama as the “biggest terrorist … in the United States of America”?
Someone’s head will roll after this latest fiasco.
Watch the video below.

ION even see why they asked this ass#ole to perform
Who invited this no talent azz ninja anyway?
He always try to say some “controversial” chit just cause.
He remind me of them niggas that go to jail but come back “Harvard Educated/Rhodes Scholars” and chit.
Then why perform at a Obama event
ignant!
This fool trying to grab his yt audience
This nigga wants to be known as a rebel so bad…..he comes off as butt hurt tho
Jennnnay :kiss:, Chan
Man I spoke to ur rathcet azz downstairs 
@ Jenie exactly!!!
Is he tryna get his Kanye on when Ye said Bush did NOT like black people????
So no one is worried about losing our rights to free speech under Obama’s rule? What did Lupe say that was wrong?
I respect his right to disagree politically but, why would he perform at an inauguration event if he’s going to disrespect the honoree? Moreso, why hire a known opposer to perform at this event. He called Obama the biggest terrorist. He was also on twitter during the ENTIRE CAMPAIGN reiterating the fact that he WILL NOT VOTE, etc.
Good Morning Sandra

This is why I’m still pondering…he SHOULD be able to say what he wants, but I’m questioning his choice to perform at the event in the first place too…
Not everyone agrees with Obama so who cares if they voted against him. However, Lupe shouldnt have agreed to perform at this event either.
@ PumpkinsMama What’s good?
@ Sandra I’m all for the free speech and such, but why would I go to a Muslim rally on stage eating a bacon and egg sammich and let them know on the mic, “This here is some good swine”
@ PumpkinsMama, good morning hun
I hope you had a good weekend.
Good morning everyone :wave:
:wave: Good Morning Sandra Rose, how are you today Miss Lady?
Lupe tries to hard, that was just plain disrespectful. He should have turned down the invite and who was the idiot that invited him to perform.
He is foreva trying to be controversial. Ole tryin to hard ninja!!
@Sandra…c’mon now. If he was THAT anti-Obama..why go to the event??
Thats like going to a Muslim rally and singing an Ode to Pork..
Like going to an anti-abortion rally & singing a song about freedom of choice.

UM NO…Why would he even attend such an event if he doesn’t like Obama? You don’t come to a party honoring someone and talk bad about them. Same thing would happen at any event, not just Obama’s. And its funny how you mention free speech when you are quick to ban someone for commenting on one of your homegirls in the wrong fashion.
@ Man, I just don’t care™
That is the best smiley everrrrrrr
@mzwhang
that bitch is WAITING for the opportunity to snag her some presidential dog! This is like the all-star game to a groupie for her!

We can speak freely, but we must also remember that people will react as well. No action is without consequence.
@Chan….aww hell you are soooooooooo right.
@Auntie…kindly disregard that post. Can we get a medical minute on run away fangas that type stuff on their own…against the body’s will?
:hugs:

EXACTLY!!! IF THAT AINT SOME COONERY. HE DESERVED TO BE THROWN OFF STAGE.
@Donna #42…u KNOW this!
I actually think Lupe is talented. He was being disprespectful. Should have set his politics aside once he agreed to take the gig. That is punishable by death in some nations.
They shoulda threw him off stage like they used to throw Jazz outta the house on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air!
Milky

@ Sandra Touche’
Ok Auntie!
Good morning Diva, Miany, and everyone
Lupe accepted the invitation to perform because he is an artist and this is still a free country. A man can go wherever he is invited — and he should be allowed to speak his mind when he gets there. That simple principal is what this country was founded on.
*does a circle of snaps @Sandra’s comeback*
oWWWWW!!!
@man come hide behind dis hur couch. :couch:
Oops!
@ Milky My weekend was cool…still trying to get adjusted to this new city….so I rode around til I found the hood.
@MzWhang: Is that your dog in the avi? I swear, part of the highlight of my day is seeing what outfit your avi is wearing!
Hey Milky
@chan where did u move from and to?

Say what nah?
I’m pretty sure Lupe got paid to go and perform. I didn’t vote for Obama but if someone paid me to host, attend, or perform at an Obama event I’d go and collect my coins. Their the idiots for inviting him..
Morning everyone who spoke
yeah free speech ok 
so if I’m against gays , I should perform at a gay rally come on 
there is a Time and a place for everything 
@milky was trying to menaj me on friday cant speak today…smh i blame LUPE

sure I’m all for free speech as long as my right to bare arms isn’t violated as I paruse the local elem school and church. It makes me feel safe.
Sandra, there’s no way, rights or not, you’d allow me or anybody else to come for you at your event. And you shouldn’t. You have the right to remove that person. Lupe has an opinion, which is cool. But there’s no way you’re going to be at an Obama event talking proudly about not voting for him in either election. The other thing is he was calling out other folk for being racist. I’m thinking they couldn’t get to him fast enough, so by the time they got to him, he was clowning Obama in his lyrics.
There’s a time and place for everyhing. I can’t wait to hear why he agreed to perform if he had such convictions anti-Obama.

Sandra, I NEVER disrespect these hoes (even though they never miss an oppurtunity to belittle my height and the like) or friends of the blog.
Im a rule follower.
What is WRONG Sandra is that it’s a time and place for EVERYTHING and that was not the time nor the place! Take that chit outside on the sidewalk if you didn’t vote for Obama or supported him, WHY even bother going and performing? That is because Lupe is an attention whore and wanted exposure! I’m all for free speech as well but you know good and well that was not the place. Thats like them inviting you out to the event to live tweet,instagram and blog about the inauguration! So inappropriate and tacky!
The man has a right to say whatever he wants to say. I don’t hold it against him for not being an Obama supporter. Your political views
SHOULD extend beyond ethnicity and obviously the issues are more important to him than voting for the “brother”.
Being an independant doesn’t negate your blackness (and I know because I love being black, and I’m an independant). Being republican doesn’t make you any less black and it’s silly to suggest that being black means ANY democratic candidate should automatically get your vote.
Now, on the FLIP side of this, the dumba$$ who booked someone who is VOCALLY anti-Obama, to perform at the inauguration for Obama, is the one who should have been invited on stage just so they could snatch his or her ink pen, clip board and ID badge before the secret service humiliated that a$$ by dragging her off stage and pushing her outside into the middle of the street and then and throwing her coat and keys in out behind her.
@ Sandra, I don’t see this as a “free speech” issue. If I’m having a party and hire you to DJ and you get on the mic and disrespect me, I’m having security take you and your crate full of records and throw your a$$es in the middle of the street too.
If you’re suck a stickler for the right to free speech, you wouldn’t BAN mf’s on here so regularly. At MY event, you have the right to “speech” what I deem appropriate. Bash me and my house at my event, and you can do it from outside.
I agree with TalkingwithTami…

Thank you!!! Absolutely nothing was wrong. It was all right but the blind can’t see.
NEWSFLASH…THIS WAS NOT AN OFFICIAL PARTY! THOSE WERE NOT SECRET SERVICE PEOPLE….this was just some promoter party. This had NOTHING TO DO WITH OBAMA, and it’s not a case of Freedom of Speech. The promoters should have checked who they were hiring, but when you are getting paid to follow a THEME…that’s what you are supposed to do. When you are hired for a JOB…it’s to do the JOB the employer asked. If you don’t…YOU GET FIRED!
If you simply google the promoters….you’ll see…that this was not a White House party. People like JOHN LEGEND perform at official parties!
@Carrington I agree with you 100%. Don’t let skin color stand in the way of sound judgement.
I am Black…not from USA….but was big on Obama until I really started checking who he surrounds himself with and what exactly he has done. It’s all smoke and mirrors people. Stop letting the fact that he is a Black man blind you.

You mean “They’re idiots”?
