Snoop Dogg Slams Barack Obama

In what seems like a strange, not to mention arbitrary, move, Snoop Dogg made some scathing remarks regarding presidential candidate Barack Obama and the senator's campaign in a recent interview with the Guardian. Snoop claims Obama has received funding from the white supremacy group Ku Klux Klan.

"The KKK gave Obama money," the rapper tells the Guardian. "They was one of his biggest supporters." While there's no actual evidence to support Snoop's claim, the rap star seems to be sticking to his personal theory. "Why wouldn't they be? The media won't tell you that. They don't want you to know that. They just want you to know that this n----- befriended this other n----- who be threatening your values. But we all know all presidents lie to get into f---ing office. That's they job," the Doggfather rants.

Meanwhile, the rapper was singing a different tune when he sat down with Larry King to weigh in on the election, while promoting his family oriented reality series, 'Snoop Dogg's Fatherhood.' "I just want to see somebody win that's in the best interest for America," Snoop told King in February. "Whether it be a black man [Barack Obama] or a woman [Hillary Clinton] -- either one is a great move for America, because we need change."

You know, I think this is something initiated by the Clinton Camp. Putting it out there that Obama is this or that. I do not put it past that lying, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Bill" or that equally lying "I had to duck and run to the car because they were shooting at us", while being seronated with music and poetry by a children in Bosnia, Hillary. I do not put anything past the Clintons. Snoop, I am giving you the benefit of the doubt here, because I am not sure if what is being said about you now is true. But IF it is, you are being a complete and utter Jackass and you are hurting all people from all walks of life who would benefit from the vision and inspiration and intelligence Obama will bring to us as a nation.

How come mr. dogg doesn't put his money where his mouth is. Before blasting Senator Obama he should have done some research.
Now be a real man and send Senator Obama a campaign contribution to show everyone your wallet is as big as your mouth. I think if all of us took our time and watched CNN and MSNBC and read a newspaper You would then know that Senator Obama will be our next President.

Just goes to show you that MATURITY and INTELLIGENCE doesn't come automatically with age...What is he now 60?
Shameful that this man has not learned how to shut up about things you know nothing about. He probably heard something about this and ran with it to appear enlightened and controversial...
It didn't work Snoopy--you just look like the idiot you are...
He's not even allowed to vote as a convicted criminal...

If it isn't Mr. Puff Puff Pass himsels. I told you weed kills your brain cells. If you say something shouldn't you have some evidience to back it up? Snoop is stupid that is why I don't watch his show or listen to his raggedy music. Yet another example of Black on Black crime!!!!!

First of all, Snopp needs to take an English class so he can learn how to use his was and were's. If President Bush and his friends can kill innocent Irac's for money and oil, why can't Obama get the white man's money.

I talked about Snoop's saying Obama gets money from the KKK over on Highbrid Nation. Those statements were completely outlandish but what I don't understand is how he can go on record saying these things when he was just on Larry King recently singing Barack's praises.
