I don't know much about Disney Channel country music, but I think this is part of a bigger issue. Kanye West was like "this is some little white girl, I can say whatever I want." Just like Joe Wilson who yelled "you lie" at Barak Obama, he didn't respect the presidency because Obama is black, and thought he could do whatever he wanted.

Another important question that can be raised: where are the extratarestrials who gave Kanye West that haircut? When will they be held accountable?

Please tell me you're kidding... someone says that Obama lied and you're assumption is that he's a racist... once again... I really hope you're being sarcastic. ::)

Considering he didn't lie, seems like it could be racism to me.

Unfortunately, we even have former Presidents who are saying this.  Shame Carter Shame.

Two things:

1. It seems some of you have never read a JDS post before.

2. There's an SNL skit that explains the whole "you lie" thing perfectly.

To yell out in the middle of a presidential address like that is very disrespectful of the presidency, and I don't believe Joe Wilson would have screamed insults during one of President Clinton's addresses, just like I don't think Kanye would have grabbed the mic from Rihanna.

I'm not saying Rep. Wilson or Kanye West were wrong in what they stated (I actually agree with them both), I just feel there was a common reason in why they showed no respect for the speaker and felt it was okay to interject.

I'm pretty sure that comparing an arrogant rapper to a senator is pretty ridiculous. Just because a black rapper had his reasons for interrupting Taylor Swift's award... I don't think that applies to a white senator.

Also... maybe he said that Obama was lying... because Obama was lying? Obama has said things in the past that completely contradict what he was saying in that meeting... I don't think saying he is a racist is accurate. There's always the option that the speaker actually disagreed... throwing in the "you must be racist" argument is something that the liberal news stations use all too often.

However, I agree. It wasn't right to interrupt the president. But I think to say he did that out of racism is pretty rediculous.

I don't believe Joe Wilson is any better than Kanye West in this instance, even if he was a Senator (which he isn't). And I think anyone who can see racism in what Kanye West did, but not what Joe Wilson did, is racist also.

Okay, so since Obama doesn't like George Bush's policies, he's racist, right? Because when you disagree with a politician, and you're not of his race, you're racist, right? And if I try to say that Obama isn't racist and Joe Wilson is, I'm racist, right?

Are you kidding me? That makes no sense.

I don't like Randy Moss. I'm racist. Kanye West doesn't like Taylor Swift. He's racist. Michael Jackson only dated white women. He's racist.

Right?

It is understandable to me that Joe Wilson wouldn't like President Obama's healthcare policy or that Kanye West wouldn't like that girl's country music, but the shocking lack of respect is what leads me to believe their actions had deeper motives.

What about them booing president Bush when he tried to speak to the same group? There were white people booing Bush. That was at least as disrespectful and that was from a lot more people. But no one called any of them racist.

I disagree with some of Obama's policies and that is what is suppose to happen in a democracy, the accusations of racism come from the complete lack of respect for the presidential office that it would take to jump up and SHOUT: YOU LIE! in the middle of the PRESIDENT'S address. If you disagree that is fine but regardless you owe the man some respect as President of the United States.

The last person that disrespected Bush like that just got out of prison a few weeks back. Impeach Joe Wilson.

Wait, wait, wait. Hold it for one second, there's something I don't get here. Obama's black?!

In all seriousness though, and back to the original point of the thread, I've seen much funnier versions of that meme. A few personal favorites...

"Kool-Aid Guy, I'm really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but Capri Sun is one of the best fruit drinks of all time!"

"Mario, I'm really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but your princess is in another castle!"

"Kanye, I'm really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but Kanye is one of the best interupters of all-
Kanye, I'm really happy for you, and Imma let you finish, but-
Kanye, I'm really happy for you, and Imma-"

ROFL! That is so epically hilarious I actually lol'd.

*Presents you with pi*

I guess that's all I have to offer right now. I have a few of them. Sorry, no internets.

Haha, yeah I saw that it was pretty funny.

Also... not a lot of people are giving any attention to the fact that when Beyonce came up and got an award, she invited Taylor Swift up to finish her speech. Now that's classy.

Ooh... I'm definitely not a queen latife fan.  ::) But yeah, Taylor Swift was so embarrased by Kanye's interruption that she just walked off. So Beyonce let her finish with her time.

I don't know where people got the idea that you have to be racist to be an idiot.  We had idiots long before we had racial integration, and they'll be here long after it stops mattering to people.

And apply that to whichever example you wish.
