cornel west caught a rash of shit for what he
said about obama. plenty of fools on the leftish blogs got all bent, but it's hard to fault him for what he actually said. it's clear he felt dissed by obama over the inaguration and shit, and while obama never actually said he
wasn't a complete corporate tool, west and lots of others hoped for better. west has the reputation as a relentless self-promoter and academic lightweight, but even though he was a bit hissy and over the top on this one, he was spot on.
Ya. I'm a lesser fan these days. He an T. Smiley are telling folk to vote for obama again.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment. West often makes for good tee vee, especially when he's on with some real fucking republican ass clowns.
DeleteIn the end I think the only worthwhile thing about Obama's election will be the reality itself; beyond that he's a bigger scumbag than even Bill Clinton.
