Normally I would try and ignore comments from Diddy formery know as P. Diddy, Puff Daddy and some other names that I can’t recall at the moment but I couldn’t resist.
From ABC News’ Jake Tapper.
Says Diddy: “Attention John McCain, attention John McCain, my name is Diddy…I had to check in with you to tell you that you are bugging the f— out. I don’t even understand what planet you’re on right now.! This is the job to be the leader of the free world.
“Ok,” Diddy continues, “No disrespect. I love you. I want you to live to be 110, but things happen. What if, God forbid, you got a running mate, you become president — Alaska? Alaska? Alaska? Alaska? Come on, man. I don’t know if there’s any black people in Alaska.
“John, like, come on!” Diddy entreaties. “Sarah Palin? Yo, if you really think that we’re gonna let you win this election with these, like, crazy, these crazy decisions that you’re making, you’re buggin’. “
Diddy now follows Ludacris and actor Matthew Modine as Obama supporters who should have kept their mouths shut if they really wanted to help Obama.
As for Meghan McCain.
Meanwhile, over at the blog of McCain’s daughter Meghan, some thoughts on Gov. Palin’s daughter Bristol.
“The first political convention I ever attended was when my mom was pregnant with me in 1984 and the Republican Party nominated Ronald Reagan for a second term as President,” Meghan McCain writes. “I have been on political stages and in campaigns since before I could walk or talk. If there is one thing I have learned, it is that it is difficult to establish your identity and independence as the son or daughter of a politician.
“When I was 14 years old,” she continues, “a reporter questioned my father about me having a hypothetical abortion, had I been pregnant at 14. This reporter’s question single-handedly changed my life. This story comes up in almost every profile written about me and in almost every interview.
“It’s a rough go being the son or daughter of a politician,” she writes. “I have not known Bristol Palin very long, but there is a certain kinship I feel to her as I do other political daughters such as Chelsea Clinton, Jenna and Barbara Bush and Mary Cheney. You can’t fully understand it unless you have lived it. So I just wanted to let it be known that I support Bristol and the entire Palin family.”
The fact of the matter is that when you are the child of a politician the one thing you can count on is that the media will put you under a microscope. No one said it is fair or right, it’s just a fact of life that the media lacks a moral compass and will be watching your every step.

14 Comments for Diddy Disses Palin, While Meghan McCain Supports Bristol Palin
I don’t know about that Fred, especially since we conservatives have to deal with the likes of Dick Parsons of Time Warner (CNN, TIME, Sports Illustrated, People, Southern Living, Fortune, Money, Entertainment Weekly, TBS, TNT, Cartoon Network), Jeff Immelt of General Electric (NBC Universal), Sumner Redstone of Viacom (CBS), Patrick Esser of COX Enterprises (Atlanta Journal-Constitution), John E. Pepper, Jr. of Disney (ABC, ESPN), Donald Graham of the Washington Post, and Arthur O. Sulzberger, Jr. of the New York Times Corporation.
Quit trying to use NewsCorp as the boogeyman sir. We know who the real boogeyman is and it is those names I havementioned up above.
Yes, Diddy, Alaska does have black people. Seems to me as if they like it here quite well based on what I’ve seen. I wonder what they think about your ignorant speculation. Hmmm?
As for Governor Palin, I support her completely for VP. However, if the rest of the US decides (to their sure and certain loss) that they don’t want her, there are 600,000 people in Alaska who will be very happy to keep her – and much, much happier with her than with the previous governor who had much, much more political experience.
Hey Fred,
Then you best not vote for Obama. he must be a “Neocon/Zionist” because that “monopolized media” sure do love him.
Boy, this Kool-aid sure tastes good!
Since when did anyone above the age of 14 listen to what P Diddy says?
I can’t believe the area where a candidate lives would determine whether or not someone votes for them. That’s really ‘deep’ thinking.
Now, Obama lived in Honolulu, Hawaii and Jakarta, Indonesia, and has family in Kenya. Should all those distance places put him at a disadvantage?
Shouldn’t we be looking at principles and values?
P.Diddy should never be quoted in print anyway. What qualifies him in politics? Can he even read?
The Only Person qualified to be in The Oval Office is “If it’s not in The Constitution, No” Ron Paul.
Obama like McCain, has pleged his alegance to AIPAC, the Israeli Lobby. So it really doesn’t matter if Obama or McCain wins the ‘Election’ as America will once again be The Loser.
This Ron Paul religion is even more of a personality cult than Obamania.
The article, “Diddy Disses Palin, While Meghan McCain Supports Bristol Palin”, had nothing to do with the Jewish lobby or Ron Paul, but somehow you fit them in the comments… and right off the bat too.
Ron Paul is the biggest loser, as he should be.
Ron Paul would definitely be the winner if he’d stuck with it longer and bought more media time, but I think his family health difficulties and the need to retain his Congressional seat prevented that. Who could ever object to someone who wants smaller government and stronger Constitution???
Btw, I hope since we’re invited to comment, we can do it as we decide and not have someone such as Freedom Now dictate that to us. First Amendment- remember?
I see that you are oppressed by my opinion.
Please tell me how not supporting Ron Paul is a threat to the First Amendment…
(I’m sure that many Ron Paul supporters are level-headed, its just that on the Internet there is little evidence of that.)
Read the comment before responding. It shows intelligence.
Did anyone suggest supporting or not supporting Ron Paul was a First Amendment problem? Free speech might cover that though. Duh
You said,
“I hope since we’re invited to comment, we can do it as we decide and not have someone such as Freedom Now dictate that to us. First Amendment- remember?”
Read your own writing…
Speak all you like but do try to make sense with what you say. That’s just to be expected of an adult.
What are you talking about? Please explain yourself if you wish to advance your line of thought with any degree of clarity.
The fact is… Ron “The Other One” Paul has nothing to do with this article, “Diddy Disses Palin, While Meghan McCain Supports Bristol Palin”.
You are off subject and its embarrassing for you.
“No one said it is fair or right, it’s just a fact of life that the media lacks a moral compass and will be watching your every step.”
Being that said…. consider the fact that these days ‘the media’ is monopolized by Rupert Murdoch and his Neocon/Zionist agenda. Would tend to make that statement quite correct.
