I thought she was dodging! I can see a spoof on this using bullet-time being pretty funny.

Its sounded like a version of the song America, i think Ray Charles sung a version

Hey white folks...what about the California raisin commercials??? I dinna hear a buncha crackers whining and complaining when they turned Mike Jackson, Ray Charles into little black, shriveled up raisins.....y'all thot that shit was cute.....like Paul Mooney said, " I bet if got me some marshmallows, and put some arms and legs on them fukkin' marshmallows, and made em sing, "Surfin' USA" you wouldn't think that shit was so, goddamn cute!!

Ohhhh it's terrible that curious George is being used as a stereotypical caricature for a black dude by some white redneck dude.....If it'd been a brother made the shit, some might just be chuckling...

Bad part is, is that whitey fucked up, showed his ass in a big way, and has to take some guff from reactionaries...good news????-He is selling the fuck outta tasteless t-shirts for some scratch....

My Obama shirt would have him marionette-style, strings visible, with a "WHITE" hand on the manipulator's cross, belonging to the real enemies of mankind, who use race a fucking diversion-pick one
Under his podium would be his robe, opened a bit to see the starving children alla Dicken's "Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come" depicting the people of America two years into his fucking term, their needy hands barely able to reach for what they were told they would get, and have been groomed to expect....

Fuck Obama.

"They made Ray Charles a raisin, ("Oh fuck it, He's black"*sings "What I say!")...and then I wake up one morning, and Michael Jackson was a goddamn raisin!!! They've gone nigger, fucking, raisin, crazy!!!! I bet if I got me some marshmallows, and put me some arms and legs on them little marshmallows, and made em dance around singing, "Surfin' U.S.A." you wouldn't think that shit was so god-damn cute!!"
-from the album, R.A.C.E.-Paul Mooney on "Nigger Raisins"

This is the only one I could find...

so far. It's discarded, though. I know I have seen this on here too...

Having had the pleasure of working with the Ray Charles catalog for many years, this is still my favorite song of his, without doubt. There is a FANTASTIC live recording from an ABC era album called oddly enough "Ray Charles LIVE" (ABC/Paramount Records ABC-500) that has this track and is a stunning performance.

Ray Charles' music is simply sublime, especially on old vinyl. So moving.

That cat is a reincarnation of ray charles.

Betty works with any mashy-mash......

He was pretty hostile when he was younger. Once, when he was in America, he had an argument at a bar with somebody and called Ray Charles "an ignorant n*". Elvis got punched out, and I think it's around that time that he started to lighten up.

Unfortunately for him FPS games are my stable repertoire. Specifically Halo and Halo 2. Teh sniper rifle pwnage with twh energy sword would be too much for him to handle. And may cause traumatic childhood experiences costing into the thousands of dollars in terms of psychological treatment.

In regards to the whole Jack Thompson thing, I agree with you about seeking something to blame. It's easier to say that Columbine was caused by violent media then really explore what would push two individuals into a killing spree.

To me I believe it's also indicative of societies constant struggle against anything new and youthful that slowly replaces the indulgences of the past.

The same criticism was leveled at music during the 20th century, from soulful gospel music being too sexy and raunchy with people like Ray Charles. Or that Rock Music is turning all young people into devil worshiping Satanists who for some odd reason would buy perfectly normal records and play them backwards.

I mean look at Dag, he seemed to turn out okay right? and he used to do the whole parking lot scene.

The song the little girl is singing is the first verse of "Fifty Nifty United States" by Ray Charles.
