ChittChatter: Celebs React To Clint Eastwood’s Cracked Out Speech At The RNC

Guess we’re not the only ones who thought Clint forgot to take his meds. In what was the oddest and most awkward moment of the night, Clint “Money Mitt Lover” Eastwood took to the stage and kind of made a fool of himself. The best part of this has been the hilarious tweets (even one from Obama) in reaction to the empty chair speech. In case you didn’t know, Clint was the “highlight” celebrity speaker of the RNC.

What Year Is It Again??? Louisiana High School Reunion Letter Invites “White Graduates Only”

We’ve come so far… for the past 40 years, graduates of St. Martinville Louisiana Senior High School (Class of 1973) have held separate, segregated reunions. Some azzhole still “slipped up” and included a “White’s Only” after party on the invitation though. The Class of 1973 decided that after nearly 40 years, they would stop holding segregated class reunions, but a letter announcing the change included an after party for “white graduates only.” Michael Kreamer, who is the principal of the Louisiana school, said the letter was brought to his attention on Friday morning. “It’s disappointing to see something like this,” he said. “The school was really not involved at all in it.” On Sept. 21, a reception will be held at the school, followed by the homecoming football game, which the letter notes all graduates are welcome to attend. After the game, “white graduates only” are invited to a classmate’s home and are encouraged to bring a “food dish to share.” Liza Chance, one of the organizers of the event, told ABC affiliate KATC the group had originally planned to have separate parties again this year, but then changed their minds, and that the old plans were sent prematurely. “I don’t understand why this went the way it did,” she said. Racism is still alive and well…especially in the south. Do you think any of the black students will end up going now? Source Images via abcnews

A “Lil Positivity”: Ne-Yo, Pepsi, And Billboard Celebrate The 25th Anniversary Of MJ’s ‘Bad’

Who’s Bad? Ne-Yo stepped out with Swizz Beatz, RaVaughn, and up and coming artist Melanie Fiona to pay tribute to the King of Pop and the anniversary of MJ’s BAD. Pepsi and Billboard celebrated the 25th anniversary of Michael Jackson’s classic album Bad during the fourth and final part of its Summer Beats concert series at New York City’s Gotham Hall on Aug. 29 — a night that would have been the singer’s 54th birthday. R&B singers Ne-Yo and Melanie Fiona each performed full-length sets that coupled their own hits with remakes of classic Bad tracks like “Smooth Criminal,” “Dirty Diana” and the title track. DJ Cassidy spun other classic Jackson jams like “Rock With You” in between sets, while Swizz Beatz closed out the night with a headlining set that included Rihanna’s “We Found Love” and some of his own famous productions for rappers like DMX.

Trio Of Texas Judges Smack Down New Voter ID Laws And Blast ‘Racist’ Legislators

Take that Texas! The state’s got a history of voter discrimination and this new legislation would have violated the Voting Rights Act. The judges said the new law would require tens of thousands of registered Texas voters who are poor and do not drive cars to travel to a state motor vehicle office to obtain the required state photo ID card. And one-third of Texas counties do not have a Department of Public Safety (DPS) office, they noted. “Even the most committed citizen, we think, would agree that a 200- to 250-mile round trip — especially for would-be voters having no driver’s license — constitutes a substantial burden on the right to vote,” said Judge David Tatel in unanimous opinion. He noted that about 13% of the state’s black voters, and 7% of its Latinos, do not have an automobile in the household. And the state drivers’ license offices are not open on weekends. “Poorer citizens, especially those working for hourly wages, will likely be less able to take time off work to travel to a DPS office,” Tatel said. “A law that forces poorer citizens to choose between their wages and their franchise unquestionably denies or abridges the right to vote.” Guess it’s no surprise but not everyone’s too happy about it. Texas Attorney General Gregg Abbott (undercover KKK at it’s finest) is taking the ruling to the US Supreme Court and said: “we are confident that we will prevail.” We’ll have to wait and see if this clown actually ends up appealing; we hope there’s not enough time for him to get this reversed.

Jesus Take The Wheel: Manhattan Granny ‘Mama Dot’ Admits She Helped Run Her Sons $1M Drug Ring

You’ve got to be kidding. Grandmother and President of the Co-Op Board–72-year-old Doris Smith confessed to helping her daughter and son-in-law run their $1 million-a-year drug ring! She used her co-op as a stash house for PCP, rocks, and heroin. The family matriarch—known among her drug pals as “Mama Dot”—was twice caught on wiretaps warning the son-in-law, gang kingpin Lamont (Big Bro) Moultrie, 42, that cops were inside the building at 101 W. 115th St. “I’ve listened to the wiretaps,” Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Edward McLaughlin told Smith’s attorney. “Your client was quite involved. She knew what was going on, and tried to deflect the police.” The short, heavyset grandmother of seven — and great-grandmother of one — pushed up her eyeglasses to wipe away tears while admitting her pivotal role in the lucrative dope-peddling business. Smith, as co-op board president, held a key to the basement and a vacant third-floor apartment next door to where she lived with her daughter Nicole McNair Moultrie and son-in-law Lamont. The basement of the six-story building was used to store hundreds of heroin-filled packets and dozens of plastic bags loaded with dope. The heroin was marketed under the brand name “24,” and a stamp with that number was kept downstairs. The upstairs apartment served as the heart of the PCP trade, with gang underlings dipping spearmint leaves into 5-gallon cans of the liquid drug. The angel dust-laced leaves were then sold for $10 apiece by dealers at three open-air Harlem drug markets — earning the gang its nickname, the “Kings of Dust.” Lamont Moultrie and his kid brother Bernard (Little Bro) Moultrie, 39, were charged as the heads of the drug gang and are awaiting trial under the state’s “Drug Kingpin” statute. Such a shame…Doris is a retired nurse who walks with the aid of a cane. Her 11-year-old grandson, and son of daughter Nicole, also lived in the apartment. Source Images via nydailynews

What The Hell??? Atlanta Teacher Encouraged Students To Cheat Because They Were ‘Dumb As Hell’!

Enough with the laziness already! When you have to help your students cheat on tests, maybe it’s time for you to find another career! Atlanta math teacher Shayla Smith allegedly thought students were so “dumb” that they needed her help during testing. The former 5th-grade teacher at southwest Atlanta’s Dobbs Elementary School denied it, but a tribunal apparently believed that allegation and others and recommended her termination Monday. Data on test erasures likely undermined Smith. The testimony of a student who claimed to witness her cheating and of a fellow teacher who said she overheard Smith admit to cheating couldn’t have helped her either. The teacher, Schajuan Jones, taught 4th grade across the hall from Smith, and said she overheared Smith talking in the hallway with a teacher whose students she had overseen during testing. “The words were, ‘I had to give your kids, or your students, the answers because they’re dumb as hell,’” Jones said. Smith was one of roughly 180 Atlanta Public Schools educators who were accused of cheating after a state investigation triggered by reports in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Fox News Analyst Juan Williams Blasts Ann ‘Out Of Touch’ Romney: ‘She Sounds Like a Corporate Wife!’ [Video]

Well Damn. Looks like Juan Williams shocked his news anchors along with the rest of us after Ann Romney gave her speech last night during the RNC. Williams took heat from his Fox co-workers and even more criticism from conservative bloggers for his assessment of the potential first lady’s address Tuesday night. “Mitt Romney’s wife, Ann Romney, on the other hand looked to me like a corporate wife,” Williams said on Fox News. “And you know the stories she told about struggle, eh, it’s hard for me to believe. She’s a very rich woman, and I know that and America knows that.” Williams also said that Ann Romney didn’t convince him she understood the struggles of the average American woman and looked like “a woman whose husband takes care of her and she’s been very lucky and blessed in this life.” Of course Money Mitt’s team swooped in to criticize Williams’ comments: “We respect our colleagues in media and appreciate they too have invested a lot to be here to cover the convention,” a Romney aide said in a statement to POLITICO. “But, Juan’s comments are deeply disappointing: Not only were they unfair and personal, they were wrong.” They didn’t sound wrong to us but you know they had to come to Ann’s defense. Juan in the meantime defended himself this morning saying, “I think my criticism was aimed at the reality of the economics and the blessings that the Romneys have had,” Williams said. “They’re not average Americans, in terms of their wealth, by any stretch of the imagination.” If Mitt wants to try and pull any of us in, having his wifey up on stage looking like a robot isn’t going to sway our opinions at all.
