Essay 3064


Carter News in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Former President Jimmy Carter backpedaled over his remarks that the Bush administration is “the worst in history” for its international relations (see Essay 3050). Carter now says the comments were “careless or misinterpreted,” and he explained, “I wasn’t comparing this administration with other administrations back through history but just with President Nixon.” The White House responded by declaring Carter as “increasingly irrelevant.” Sounds like the perfect slogan for the current administration.

• Jay-Z, aka Shawn Carter, was hit with a lawsuit from staffers at his trendy 40/40 Club, charged with skimping on pay. Guess the workers were hoping for a 50/50 split.

I'm about sick of people saying what they really think and then taking it back when they get called on it.

Had Carter said "Yeah - I said it! Now Fuck You Bitches!" his stock would've soared. As it stands, he just comes across looking like the pussy everyone has always accused him of being.
