It looks like Lupe Fiasco won’t be getting his hands on an invite to the White House.
Last month, he released the controversial “Words I Never Said”, video where he vented about his displeasure with the American Government,, saying:
“Limbaugh is a racist, Glenn Beck is a racist, Gaza Strip was getting burned, Obama didn’t say shit/ That’s why I ain’t vote for him, next one either.”In an interview with CBS News’ What’s Trending, that aired last night, he spoke further on terrorism, calling President Obama the biggest terrorist of them all.
“In my fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America. For me, I’m trying to fight the terrorism that’s actually causing the other forms of terrorism. The root cause of the terrorism is the stuff that you as a government allow to happen and the foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists. And it’s easy for us because it’s really just some oil, which we can really get on our own.”When asked if he voted, he replied:
“I don’t vote. I don’t get involved in the political process because it’s meaningless, to be honest. I’m a real big believer if I’m gonna vouch for someone, then I’m gonna stand behind everything that they do. That’s just how I am as a human being. So politicians aren’t gonna do that because I don’t want you to bomb some village in the middle of nowhere.”Watch the video below:
I definitely understand his frustrations with the government but I don’t know what’s worse; not voting, or standing back and complaining about the people who are voted in.
