Cannot wait to see the pictures. What an attractive and fun First Couple!
she also performed at the fundraiser he had in LA
Obama feasts with the Hollywood elite while one in five average Americans, aka, the Ignored, are unemployed. Yep, he sure is a man of the people.
Oh Yes, he should stop all state functions and turn out the lights every night. That will really comfort people. Obama inherited a country on life support in January, blaming him for the meltdown that happened before he took office fools no one, we all remember last October before the elections. I take it you faulted Bush for holding a State dinner after a terrorist attack and starting 2 wars that are still in process? I thought not but remember the ‘opposition’ wasn’t attacking him for doing that either, maybe they just have better manners.
Excellent Post!
I’m sure the Drudge robo-bigots will soon infest this report w/ the usual ignorant, hate filled vitriol. It’s refreshing to see some rationale before the worthless crap storm ensues.
Raymond– I hope you’re gone in 2012. In every way possible.
Great a celebratory dinner for Obama and his hollywood pals, while he completely drops the ball on health care, the economy, Afghanistan, and wall street corruption… we believed a year ago… anyone still kidding themselves needs to wake up. Obama is weak.
But enjoy Jennifer Hudson, you’re the first black president, the hollywood black establishment loves you and always will.
Me? I hope you’re gone in 2012.
Obama is working hard to clean up after George W. which is like cleaning up after elephants with a tooth brush. It is funny how in less than a year people forget what a awful president Bush was. Even James Buchanan was a better president! You Obama haters are pathetic losers!
The white Hollywood establishment loves him too. So do many other educated Americans. And actually, many other educated Americans who don’t like our President understand he inherited a shitty situation. It’s the uneducated, weak sheeple who are the ones who blame him for the problems you just mentioned.
Yeah, the man inherited a economy in meltdown and has not magically fixed everything in a year.
Seriously, can’t the man have one nice dinner? What’s next, are we going to start blaming him for not solving the hostility between cats and dogs?
Oh wait, I had dinner at the Cheesecake Factory last month. I guess any concern I have for social issues is rendered moot.
I’m speaking for myself. A year ago I was on board and a story like this would have been charming to me.
I didn’t expect him to solve the mess he inherited. I expected him to be honest, tough, and unforgiving in his confrontation of the utter corruption in Washington. Problem is, he’s another whore afraid to take on the system and a slave to the poll numbers. But seeing the health care debate up close, I, and a lot of other supporters see the real Obama.
And we don’t like what we see.
So a Hollywood dinner filled with black celebrities gushing over the guy because he’s the first black president is an infuriating story.
Fuck Obama. I hope he’s out in 2012.
Why don’t people understand this blog exists to share information about the entertainment industry for the entertainment industry and those who follow the business of it. Not for people with no lives who troll every discussion board and blog in the world looking for opportunity to blame a black man for all that went wrong in this country during the Bush administration. Just when you think conservatives can’t get any more pathetic and desperate they do.
This is a great thing.
You see, Jennifer Hudson and Obama are really the same person. Both are marginally talented, minorities who won high office without having the requisite experience or talent.
The facts are these:
1. Since winning her Oscar, Jennifer Hudson has crapped out in one film after another, proving that she was never an actress.
Since becoming President, Obama has crapped out on being the change agent he said he would be.
2. Hudson’s wooden turn in Sen In The City was laughably bad and her long awaited album tanked proving she was never much of a singer.
Obama’s leadership has been laughably bad. He waffled on the war and showed that he’s not adept even at race relations. He is doing business as usual, proving that he was never much of a change agent.
3. Jennifer’s hotness has waned.
Obama’s approval rating has dropped.
So sing on Jennifer. It’s a swan song for both of them.
Andy – that has to be the funniest, and the best, comment I have read re: Obama’s FIRST state dinner in 11 MONTHS
It’s shocking you guys still make no sense. I guess I shouldn’t have a big dinner on Thursday with all my friends and family. Maybe I shouldn’t go see New Moon either since I could use that money to help the homeless. And Christmas, I’ll just give my Ipod back since their are kids with nothing. You guys sound dumb. Bush was on vacation every other week and started a war that WAS STUPID!!!! Now your sad and you guys care about the country. Yeah go buy Palin’s book and elevate stupidity in the world and while your killing healthcare, and stem cell research, look and to your grandparents eyes and tell them you love them and God will help them because you’re so wrapped up in stupidity you would rather have a tea party than make sure all people are covered medically. IF YOU WORK IN HOLLYWOOD. WHY DO YOU THINK ALL THE PRODUCTIONS ARE GOING TO CANADA. IT’S BECAUSE THEY HAVE NATIONAL HEALTHCARE AND IT’S CONSEQUENTLY CHEAPER TO SHOOT THERE. YOU GUYS ARE DUMB!!!
Congratulations to Jennifer Hudson.
Your post is laughable. We’re a pretty good country for black men. We got a black president and A BLACK PRINCESS in a DISNEY MOVIE!!!! Change has come. And Jennifer Hudson, after everything that happened to her, it’s amazing she can even get out of bed this year.
Neo Noircat — have you not been in the U.S. during the past 8 years. I think not. Note: Bush was a moron who bankrupted our country but went to church so the poor could think he was a good guy. Obama is working his BUTT off. Thank God for Obama.
