Bill is a dickhead, but that Lupe alters his voice to "win" the discussion makes him seem even less credible...

as a canadian we dont have a biased media of ANY of the coverage from beginning to end of this whole "war". its a shame the american ppl are so easily mislead by their own goverment ALL THE TIME.
 (at the time bush)
it never took 10 years to find bin laden. lol give me a break. they could have found him AT ANY TIME.
the way every other country truley sees it. its a shame most american ppl cant think for themselves and believe everythnig comming out there tv's. listen to ANY other countries news that isnt associated with the economics of the US, and youll get an intirely different visual. 

HAHA, just remembered the dizzee rascal interview on Barrack Obama's appointment, and to be honest, Lupe makes him look like a tool.
check this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM1XrVVVBAk

you shouldnt appologize
im sure its like 8/10

But at least Dizzee wasn't trying to be something he's not.

 this is why his lyrics are so deep and amazing unlike most rappers who talk about ass money and weed, Lupe actually listens and studies things in america and the around world.  any other rapper would have looked stupid against Bill  I feel Lupe actually had a strong point 

fuck Orielly, 9/11 was propaganda to get people behind the so called "war on terror", The USA crashed those planes and they are the real TERRIST

O'Reilly had the nerve to say Lupe was miseducating his fans while he passses his opinion off as fact

The interview was edited, Fox style:

I am not going to watch this for fear of losing respect for Lupe.

It's really no different from what he's been saying for a long time, it's inflammatory, sure, but that's the point. He draws no distinction between Obama and any other American leader and questions the definition of terrorism. That's all.

To clarify, I have nothing against what Lupe is saying. I've listened to "Words I Never Said." What I am talking about, though, is from reading the comments on here, Lupe does not present himself well and embarrasses himself. I watched part of the Mos Def clip and he sounds incredibly dumb. I know both of these guys are intelligent but not everyone has a knack for public dialogue or debate and when the start stumbling on their words, it plays into the stereotypes that O'Reilly and his viewers have.

Definitely Agreed.

As an American who just studied in Canada for 2 years, I'd like to dispel your comments.  There is no such thing as unbiased media, and believe me, the Canadian press is biased. You cannot be a developed nation reporting in a war-torn, near anarchic nation and report both sides of the story evenly and without bias.

As for your comments on the American people not thinking for themselves, I would urge you not to make such sweeping generalizations, especially when those generalizations can be just as applicable to Canada.

I too am frustrated and wary of the American press, and I believe the American public should be far more critical when they receive 'news' from biased sources.  The problem I have with your comment is the assumption that Canada (and every other country in the world, as you say) is any better, and the self-righteous tone.  Unless you can speak from experience, if I were a Canadian I wouldn't speak on behalf of Americans.

Both Lupe and Mos Def are idealists, but that doesn't mean they aren't well educated in the matters they speak of. There is a difference between the clashing ideologies of what is and what can be, but you can't say that the latter is wrong just because it seems unreasonable to you.

eat a dick n*gga
