Obama camp condemns song: Ludacris 'should be ashamed'
Ben Smith's Blog — Barack Obama's campaign is condemning a song by the rapper Ludacris that praises Obama and bitterly attacks Senators Hillary Clinton and John McCain. "As Barack Obama has said many, many times in the past, rap lyrics today too often perpetuate misogyny, materialism, and degrading images that he doesn’t want his daughters or any children exposed to," said spokesman Bill Burton. "This song is not only outrageously offensive to Senator Clinton, Reverend Jackson, Senator McCain, and President Bush, it is offensive to all of us who are trying to raise our children with the values we hold dear.

He Really Wants to Hurt Us (and Norwegian Prostitutes)
Hit & Run — The conviction of "Boy" George O'Dowd, former Culture Club frontman and, according to his own barrister, a "drug-crazed idiot," on charges of kidnapping and assaulting a Norwegian prostitute (we've all been there) provides a great excuse to add yet another video to the pantheon of shitty Obama songs.
