For Your Viewing Pleasure: Photos And Video Of Bin Laden’s Dead Body May Be Released As Conservative Group Files Lawsuit!

Uh-ohhhh, Kola Boof might lose her husband-fawking mind if THIS goes down! The world may yet see photographs — and even video — of a dead Osama Bin Laden. The conservative group Judicial Watch has sued for release of the materials under Freedom of Information Law, and they apparently have a case, The Atlantic Wire reports. Former Justice Department privacy official Dan Metcalfe told the Website that a government brief in the case effectively concedes “portions of the records that are legally required to be disclosed.” That could mean redacting portions of the images that show U.S. military personnel or technology, but not the slain terror leader, according to the report. The CIA has argued that such a disclosure would “trigger violence” around the globe, Wired.com reported. After offing the terror leader in Pakistan last May with a “double tap” of gunshots to the torso and head, Navy SEALs snapped pictures of his corpse to show they got their man. The Obama Administration nixed conspiracy theories by showing them to a select group of lawmakers, who agreed that the “gruesome” photographs proved Bin Laden’s death beyond a shadow of a doubt. Keep it 100, don’t YOU want to see these pictures if they are released?? Source Flip the page for a gallery of a few of the “real” Bin Laden death pics

Ho Sit Down: Out-Of-Pocket Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer Tries To Talk Isht To The POTUS, He Walks Off On Her Mid-Sentence!

“Lemme get out here before I curse this heffa out.” President Barack Obama and Arizona’s Republican Governor Jan Brewer appeared to get into a verbal argument just moments after Air Force One touched down in Phoenix Wednesday afternoon. According to reporters at the scene, Brewer could be seen pointing her finger at the president during their brief exchange, before Obama walked away. Brewer later told reporters the president had been upset about a passage in her recent book in which she described a meeting between the two at the White House. “He was a little disturbed about my book, ‘Scorpions for Breakfast,’” said Brewer, who was there to welcome Obama to Arizona. Asked which passage of the book he had taken issue with, Brewer suggested Obama felt he had not been portrayed cordially in one of the excerpts. “I said I was sorry he felt that way but I didn’t get my sentence finished,” she said. “Anyway, we’re glad he’s here. I’ll regroup.” Daaaaaamn so “Ice Cold” Barry-O just George Jefferson strolled on this broad while she was in mid-sentence?? That’s gaaaaangsta! LOL! Of course, The White House has released a statement with a lil’ spin on it to clean things up a bit… “The governor handed the President a letter and said she was inviting him to meet with her,” it said. “The President said he’d be glad to meet with her again, but did note that after their last meeting, a cordial discussion in the Oval Office, the governor inaccurately described the meeting in her book.” We recommend Riiiiiiight…*side-eye* Source

We Gotta Do Better: Black And Latino High School Seniors Perform On The Level Of White 13-Year-Olds

A new study has revealed some really depressing news. Not only are high school seniors performing at the same level as 13 year old white kids, they’re performing at the same level as they did 30 years ago. “We take kids that start [high school] a little behind and by the time they finish high school, they’re way behind,” says Amy Wilkins, vice president for government affairs and communications at the Education Trust, a Washington-based educational advocacy group. “That’s the opposite of what American values say education is about. Education is supposed to level the playing field. And it does the opposite. . . .While many people are celebrating our postracial society . . . there is still a significant hangover in our schools.” The Education Trust says African-American and Latino students have made little to no progress in 12th-grade reading scores since 1994, continuing to lag behind white students. Math achievement has also remained flat, with the gap between white students and those of color widening. Educators cite these causes for the disparity in performance: Lowered expectations for students of color Growing income inequality and lack of resources in low-income school districts Unequal access to experienced teachers An increased number of “out of field” teachers instructing minority students in subjects outside their area of expertise Unconscious bias” by teachers and administrators. This is truly alarming news. We’d say that Obama needs to do something but we’re not sure what he can do. It’s time to make some demands on a local city and community level. Let’s figure it out.

Jessica Alba Makes A Case For Why Beyonce and Jay-Z Should Sell Baby Blue’s Photos… Make That Baby Rich!

Jessica Alba isn’t telling BeyBey what to do or anything, but she does have some motherly advice — sell Baby Blue’s photos to the highest bidder and make that baby rich off money SHE earned. Mother of two Jessica Alba has some advice for new parents Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Alba suggests that the celebrity couple make a deal to sell the first photos of daughter Blue Ivy Carter and either put the proceeds in a trust fund or donate the money to charity. Alba tells CNN’s A.J. Hammer that her decision, made with husband Cash Warren, to sell the first photos of daughter Honor Marie Warren in 2008 was the right move. Alba reportedly received $1.5 million from OK! magazine for the deal. “For our family, we just wanted to control the experience,” Alba explained. “We put the money that the picture made into a bank account for Honor to do whatever she wants to do with. It’s her picture, it’s her birth, and we didn’t want it to be like a weird thing when we were walking out of the house for the first time.” Alba says that selling the first picture cut down on paparazzi feverishly trying to snap pics of the newborn. “If there’s a price tag on your child — which is so bizarre — people will go to crazy lengths,” said Alba. “We wanted to avoid that hysteria.” Alba also reveals that shooting the images for OK! magazine was a great experience. “We were friends with the photographer. It was just a nice day in the house. We’ll have those beautiful pictures forever,” Alba said. “You can give the money to charity and to your baby and that’s it.” But Alba isn’t trying to force the decision on Beyoncé and Jay-Z. “To each his own,” she said. “The biggest thing is having a healthy baby … I’m sure Beyoncé will make the best decision for her family.” Alba has recently launched a line of eco-friendly household products, called The Honest Company, inspired by wanting to use the safest products around her two daughters. She makes a good point, granted the Knowles-Carters don’t need the money… But we can think of a few reasons why they should listen to Jessica. It would put a stop to the rampant photoshopping of fake Baby Blue pictures like the ones 50 Cent posted. And there’s plenty more where those came from. Keep clicking to see some of our faves!

In Hatin’ A$$ White Folks News: Political “Talking Head” Bill Maher Says He Supports SOPA Because Of “Religulous” Piracy!

SMH! In perhaps what was the biggest surprise of his show tonight, Bill Maher defended the proposed Stop Online Piracy Act, even as the bill has been temporarily shelved, arguing that “there is a moral dimension” to online piracy and dismissed concerns that the bill would harm internet freedom as a “red herring.” He jokingly called online piracy “caucasian looting” and insisted that even if pirates are ‘just because you’re sitting at your computer in your pajama bottoms doesn’t mean you’re not stealing.” Maher admitted that he has not read the proposed legislation, which could penalize websites that merely link to infringing material, but he explained that his more hawkish views in the piracy debate came from his reaction to online users downloading illegal copies of Maher’s comedy-documentary Religulous. Maher claimed so many people downloading the film ate into its profits. However, Republican presidential candidate Buddy Roemer came out strongly against it, arguing the whole point of the bill was to give the government more power to manage the internet. Matt Lewis, contributor for The Daily Caller, brought up the controversial provision of SOPA, that if a link to any pirated material is found on a website and someone (like a copyright holder) makes a complaint, the government could take the website down in response. And with Jennifer Granholm getting applause for her praise of internet advocacy, Maher was alone in voicing any support for the bill, quipping that the protestors’ main goal was “We want more free isht!” So the only reason he’s supporting this over-reaching act that would shut down the internet forever as we know it is because he lost a few bucks on his movie that no one went to see anyway??

Another Sign Obama Is A Bad Mutha: The POTUS Gets Some Exclusive Air Jordans

First, Obama got fly at the Apollo theater. Now, his shoe game is on point. One of the most popular kicks in the last few years, the Spizikes, have been all over the country. The shoe is a combination of the three Jordans that Spike Lee promoted as Mars Blackmon in the 80s. And they’re fire. Apparently, Obama agrees and he had Spike Lee send him over this custom version of the kicks in super snazzy bordeaux. It even came with a Presidential seal! Damn, Obama’s having a good day. We’d cop if he put them on Ebay. Do it!
