Obama Death Wishers On Facebook Give Secret Service A Lot Of Work

Cenk Uyugr recently discussed the (sad to say) popular Facebook group that wishes for President Obama's death. Although it may have been in response for a similar group that wanted New Jersey Governor Chris Christie to experience the same fate, neither group is acting responsibly. If there is one saving grace though from this act of hate, it would be that the Secret Service has just been given quite a few leads to go on in order to protect the President.

The Quote Rod Blagojevich Wishes He Never Posted

When scandal erupts in the political arenas of our country, there are a few special characters who not only go down for their sins, but get labeled with the bold stamp of hypocrisy as well. Who can forget our ex-Governor here in New York, Eliot Spitzer. The Steamroller was proud of busting prostitution rings, yet ultimately fell from grace due to his involvement in one as client #9.

Well dear old Rod is about to resign, be impeached or thrown out by the courts in the very near future. Now he may not be a hypocrite per say, the guy lived and breathed Chicago politics. Yet the cached version of his Facebook supporter page is priceless.

Racist Louisiana College Kids Ain't That Bright

Prejudice is an obvious sign of ignorance and several white college kids in Monroe, Louisiana proved that with a ridiculous stunt not too long ago. Apparently to them, it was funny to smear mud on themselves in order to "re-enact" what they thought happened with the Jena 6. Of course it didn't stop there. With pictures and videos in hand, they posted this material to Kristy Smith's page on Facebook. It seems like these young racists do not know that when something is posted on the Internets, its there forever, even when you try to erase it later on.

From The Smoking Gun (click for the video):

OCTOBER 2--A group of white Louisiana college students dressed in blackface and reenacted the "Jena 6" assault while a friend snapped photos and videotaped the staged attack, images that were later posted to a participant's Facebook page. The photos, which you'll find on the following pages, were taken late last month on the bank of the Red River, where students from the University of Louisiana at Monroe giddily acted out the racial attack. The photos (and the short video clip at right) were posted to the Facebook page of Kristy Smith, a freshman nursing student. The album of images was entitled "The Jena 6 on the River." In the video, three students with mud smeared across their bodies stomp on a fourth student, while two of the participants are heard to say, "Jena 6." One man can also be heard saying, "Niggers put the noose on." After the video and photos on Smith's page were discovered by fellow students, she removed the material and made her Facebook page private. Smith, who did not respond to a TSG e-mail sent to her school address, apologized for the images in several recent Facebook postings. "We were just playin n the mud and it got out of hand. I promise i'm not racist. i have just as many black friends as i do white. And i love them to death," she wrote. She added in a later message that her friends "were drinking" and things "got a lil out of hand." When faced with heated online criticism from fellow students, Smith yanked the photos and video from Facebook, but not before one student downloaded the photos and another videotaped the video directly from her computer screen (and then posted the clip on YouTube).

Like I said before, they just ain't that bright. Now we'll see if the University's Administration will take any kind of action against these students. Somehow, I think I'd be surprised if anything happened to these little racists.
