His recent jaw-dropper came Saturday night at the Lincoln Day Dinner in West Palm Beach, Florida. Though this is not West’s most outrageous statement to date, it is no less ridiculous, according to reporting by The Huffington Post. “We need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, (audience boos)…

Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich recently offered to attend an NAACP convention to explain why African-Americans “should demand paychecks instead of food stamps.” And he has described President Barack Obama as “the most successful food stamp president in American history.” While the Republican presidential race has brought the welfare issue to the forefront, critics say it has also resurrected stereotypical images of the black “welfare mother” having out-of-wedlock…
This week, Betty White turned 90 years old. In a bit of humor, President Obama told her that he doesn’t believe that she’s 90 and that in order to prove her age, she needs to produce her long form birth certificate. The video is below:

by Dr. Boyce Watkins, Your Black World When it comes to Republicans running for president, the only thing worse than a nasty mistress is a disgruntled ex-wife. Newt Gingrich knows this very well, as his second (not first) ex-wife recently told ABC News that Gingrich is not exactly the kind of family values man that America seeks when it comes to the presidency. Marianne Gingrich, who says she is…
A conservative black preacher has backed Newt Gringrich after the Republican presidential candidate came under fire for saying poor black children should work as janitors. Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, who founded a Tea Party organization in South Central L.A, says that Gingrich was 100 per cent correct that blacks lack work ethic and that his own solution was to ‘send them back to the plantation’. ‘One of the…
Anyone with half a brain would’ve thought that Newt Gingrich and other racial flamethrowers would’ve softened their rhetoric for theMLK holiday. Sorry. No dice. Republican attendees of last night’s FOX debate were seething with delight when Gingrich refused to soften his claim that Obama was a “food stamp” president, and worked themselves into a frenzied mess when Gingrich offhandedly dismissed Juan Williams’ question about poor black kids who lack work…
