KINGDUMB, COME! 7.19.08 Honorary Inductee
All praises due to the alliterative Erykah Badu for coining the phrase, “since knowledge is infinite it has infinitely fell upon me..” (Appletree)
Like most people of color, either the incredibly splendid accomplishments or colossally stupid infractions of my brethren are usually at the forefront of my mind. Unfortunately, the blunders receive the lion’s share of exposure..Here at Roulaila, I’ve coined the term Kingdumb – and when you’ve made it into THIS particular segment of our blogosphere, we beckon you with Kingdumb, Come..
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Elisabeth Hasselbeck, you’re our first crossover, come on down Lily White, you’ve made it into Kingdumb, Come!
Listen UP, Niggas! Lizzy don’t like it when yall use that word, makes her cry, so knock it off! And Whoopi – you queen a’ da niggas, git yo tail back ta dat field.
I couldn’t resist.
Elisabeth, why are you ringing your hands in despair and weeping? We shall overcome, Scarlet, and you will remain safe in your ivory tower of blissful ignorance, evermore, evermore (shout out to Shakespeare or Corneille or some such blathering nonsense from the 16th century).
This silly little piece of whitebread, The resident Drama Queen and whiner on The View, hopped up on self-righteous indignation, decided that what the world needs now is less of the N-Word and more tolerance – she broke into a teary dissertation of how wrong it is to use the word, how she can’t explain the negative connotations of the word to her little Gracey and why should she have to, especially since blacks and whites live in the same world..
Her co-host Whoopi Goldberg, in a rare show of heritage pride, broke it all the way down, so much so that Queen of the Hive Babwa Wawa had to intervene to check Hasselbeck’s tears before Sherri Shepherd sprayed the whole table.
This is not the first time discussing the N-Word on the day time TV staple has led to heated debate, but it is the first time it became a tearjerker. Apparently, Hasselbeck is mortifyingly embarrassed like the rest of white America when they are privy to the word in action. In this instance, I applaud black Amerikka’s usage of the derogatory term because it doesn’t hurt us any longer – we’ve persevered long enough to remove its power even though it carries years of pain, suffering and oppression, even though I will personally slap the hogcrap out of any caucasian, children included, I happen to be in the presence of who feel froggy enough to use it in a sentence.
Wait a second – if I can get that mad, am I really over it?
Nigga please, L
L you are crazy!!! All I wanna know is – Why Whoopi gotta be in the field??? LOL
I do understand her somewhat… It totally makes me cringe to hear these young kids spitting out this Nigga this, Nigga that language (esPECially in front of white folks) as if no other word exists for them to use to express themselves. It would be nice if we could get rid of it all together – especially now Puerto Ricans seem to think they have some sort of ‘pass’ to say it too! Am I lost?? Did we say it was alright for them to utter the N word in public?? Truthfully, I think it is a word that children of all races should be made aware of – and then told never to say. We have to start SOMEwhere…

JESSE COUNTRY-BAMA, HYPOCRITICAL, Hi Hater, SORE LOSER, UNCLE TOMMIN’, MAD YOU AINT HIM-JACKSON, Kingdumb, Come!
Matta’ fak’, you ARE the kingdom! I mean damn, Jesse – were you drunk, leaning over to spew such venom?!
Please, please PLEASE tell me that you’ve heard this today, folks:
And if, by chance, for some reason you haven’t – let me sum it up for you.
Jesse is pissed that Barackmade a comment regarding black absent fathers – why? It was his story for a time, why can’t he make remarks regarding his own the truth?! Especially when this man has done nothing but uplift our ass-backwards people since his entire political machine started moving! To actually speak of emasculating the [currently] most powerful black man in the world is absolute hypocrisy! To say he’s talking down to your people borders on treason you buffoon!
Thank God his son had the fortitude to apologize on his jackass father’s behalf -
And the good sense God gave him to refute the remarks!
Yet another politician distancing himself from a Pastor with good reason – do I smell a conspiracy?
No this will not hurt Obama’s campaign – yes, it will permanently damage the already tenuous connection between Barack and the so-called powerful blacks previously bailing hay on the Clinton plantation but so what?
He’ll take the White House without those louses – Jackson, Butts, Rangel and Permafied Sharpton- to hell with the old guard, so sick of these fake ass we shall overcomerswho can’t toot any other horns other than the ones they carried marching with Martin.
Its over boys – settle down, grab a plate of catfish and watch how its done in the new Black America.
Swingin Low, L
L, L, L, L, LLLLLL!!!!!! Can you believe the Rev. Jack-Ass???
Just like it’s said time and time again, we will be the first to bring US down. What in the world was he thinking??? Pumping his fists for Obama in his face and the minute you think nobody’s looking you’ve got the knife to him! In-Freakin-Credible… I’m pissed L but I am also relieved that whomever didn’t know about this phony has now seen it for themselves. The good Reverend wanting to cut someone’s f*****g nuts off! I still can’t believe he would be that stupid. Even if the mic wasn’t on, you, you FOOL – don’t you think that little comment would have leaked anyway??? Then you could have just denied it but – jokes on you buddy!!
Your own son is disgusted with you and so am I Jess. Obama needs to get a restraining order on you and your hating self so you can’t get NEAR him!!! What a mess you have turned out to be Jesse – That’s why you couldn’t even make it this far in the Presidential election – Karma is a mother Jess, Believe that.

As yet un-named idiot parents in Jersey City – Kingdumb, Come!
Thank God for DJ Harvey King and a cancelled gig at Liberty State Park – had he not been canned at the last minute, perhaps little baby Jane Doe would be currently entering a different Kingdom.
Approximately 1040AM yesterday, King was leaving the Park, I’m quite sure dejectedly, and heading home. Traveling down Martin Luther King Drive, he spots a 21 month-old toddler attempting to cross the street at the corner of Claremont and King Drive.
Ok, stop. As if a baby trying to cross the street alone is not preposterous enough, with ONLOOKERS, this particular baby girl is trying to get to the other side NAKED.
Did everyone else on the street think she was going for cigarettes?? Or perhaps to the mall since she had nothing else to wear? Morons, jackasses and crackheads are clearly the main residents on this particular stretch of the drive.
The child was taken to the Jersey City Medical Center and given a clean bill of health, eventually taken into custody by DYFS- I don’t know about you, but I feel she would probably be better off with the dingbats who let her out to play in traffic nude.
The parents were found when the father made a leisurely inquiry after the whereabouts of his child at the South District Police station in Jersey City – panic, much?
The mother indicated she’d left the baby with a teen cousin while doing laundry – so its her fault, huh, mom?
I don’t know who’s worse – the bystanders or the family – everyone is responsible for the neglect of this tot, which she’s probably no stranger to, judging by this story.
Thank you DJ Harvey, for just giving a damn – you are truly a special human being.
Congratulations to the parents for stellar parenting skills and to the neighborhood of MLK Drive and Claremont in Jersey City, NJ, you’ve made it in – Kingdumb, Come!

Evander Holyfield, you’ve made it into simpleton town – Kingdumb, Come!
How on God’s green earth does a former cruiserweight (google it, I’ve got enough to blog about) and heavyweight world champion HOW many times over, end up allegedly broke?
More importantly, how do you end up broke and this is where you reside? Is this modest little maison the reason you can’t rub two nickels together?

I thought Rev Evander was all about showing inner-city children that the sky is the limit, you can live your dreams, your life is not the circumstances you’re born into? He even invites them over, well, preChapter 11 or 7 anyway, every Christmas with$50,000 worth of gratis gifts.
Dude, what are you showing these little princes of poverty? That if you take enough taps to the nose you might make enough money to need a golfcartto get around your bedroom? I mean, I get ‘over compensating’ like everyone else, The Napoleon Complex, little guys, big bikes I get all of that. But what is the story withmen of color and excess? Have we not seen enough of our people go down with their lurid, ostentatious ships?
Shout out to MC Hammer.
Add insult to injury, he wasn’t even paying his meager $3,000/month child support for one of his 800 kids and 500 incubators?? Fine, embellishing – 10 babies and a stone’s throw less than that of mommas but you get my point.
You would think that being chewed on by a fellow brawler and shot caller would’ve shown the “Real Deal” what desperation looks like..guess not.
Ah well, stay tuned for Evander Infomercials, cooking spray and patented glue guns – poor shmuck’s gotta pay those ludicrous landscaping bills and bankruptcy attorneys some kind of way.. I’m sure he’s got Georgia on his mind 24/7 these days.
