The other night a friend and I were discussing the current beef between Common and Drake and my friend made the assertion that it may be the worst beef of all-time.

As you may recall, the foundation of this great nation was threatened last week when the Obamas invited a black militant, a rapper, who wakes up every day lusting for the blood of cops to the White House.

When word got out that the Michelle Obama had invited rapper Common to a White House event celebrating American poetry on Wednesday, you just knew that the conservative noise machine would latch onto it like flies to a fresh mound of horsesh*t. Because that's what they do -- lay in wait like snakes in the grass looking to strike at some bit of slow-moving prey that they can then use to tap into the prejudices, fears and insecurities of their base of simpletons.
