In the Daily Show video, the clip of Hannity deriding him promoting violence against police was pretty hilarious.

It reminded me of a new report I saw years ago of some Southern Baptists burning records they thought were Satanic...One they called out was Uriah Heep's "Demons and Wizards", one of my favorite classic albums.

Spence, yes, Common has done some good. He has also suggested that people kill cops, he has suggested that someone light Bush omn fire, and he suggested that 2 cop killers are innocent, with zilch to back it up.

Mr Common has a mixed resume, no? So why not invite one of the many people out there who has done just as much good, but without the questionable lyrics? The answer is, to the Obama (who sat in Rev Wrights church for 20 years and were friendly with Bill Ayers), there is nothing unseemly about Mr Common's disgusting lyrics...
