Lupe Fiasco continues to stir up controversy. During his performance at an inaugural concert on Sunday, the outspoken rapper was kicked off stage after performing anti-Obama lyrics. Lupe was the headliner at the StartUp RockOn concert in celebration of Obama's second term in Washington, DC But instead of celebrating the president's re-election, he took the opportunity to bash him. After performing his anti-war single "Words I Never Said" for over 30 minutes, he was asked to move on to the next song. When he didn't comply, security told him to leave the stage. "Things going terribly wrong at @lupefiasco performance during #SURO. Kicked off stage, bashing obama," tweeted CNN's Matt Dornic. "#SURO slammed by @lupefiasco's nonstop, anti-obama rap. Corporate sponsors scurrying." Hypervocal, which co-founded StartUp RockOn, denied that Lupe was asked to leave for his anti-Obama rant. "This was not about his opinions," said the organization in a statement. "Instead, after a bizarrely repetitive, jarring performance that left the crowd vocally dissatisfied, organizers decided to move on to the next act." This is not the first time Lupe has spoken out against the president. In an interview from 2011, he called Obama a terrorist. "In my fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America," he said. credit: www.nowthisnews.comAuthor: HipHopInBox

"If you're angry at Bush I get it because we elected him in a democracy, kind of, but listen he was President twice, and so if President Bush attacks Iraq and you say he equals the USA I think that's a fair point. Now look he doesn't because at this point 70% of Americans don't like Bush but none the less you could say Bush equals USA. You could say President Obama elected in your democracy he does drone strikes, we don't like the drone strikes, but Obama equals America. You can say that I get it. But here's what you can't say..."

Brandon Raub served his country well as is apparent from the amount of medals and decorations he received as a Marine. He fought for this country, for freedom, for the Constitution. One thing in particular that he fought for was our right to free speech. That right was taken away from him on August 16, 2012. A contingent of police officers, FBI and Secret Service agents wrestled him to the ground in handcuffs and took him away without due process, without being arrested, without any semblance of legality. Waiting back at John Randolph Psychiatric Hospital in Hopewell, Virginia was a psychiatrist willing to do the US government's bidding and signed a court order to lock up Brandon for thirty days of "observation." What tipped off the FBI and Secret Service agents that Brandon was insane and might harm others? He dared to criticize his government. In a phone interview he had this to say: "I really love America, and I think that idea that you can be detained and sent somewhere without due process and a lawyer ... is crazy." Wake up, America or you'll be next...
