- Republicans lead a witch hunt on Benghazi May 9, 2013Those who are trying to make the Benghazi tragedy into a scandal for the Obama administration really ought to decide what story line they want to sell.

Noel Sheppard Upset Jamie Foxx Calls Obama “Our Lord and Savior” During Soul Train Awards Show
Noel Sheppard Upset Jamie Foxx Calls Obama “Our Lord and Savior” During Soul Train Awards Show (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters is going nuts over a comment Jamie Foxx made at the Soul Train Music Awards which aired on BET and Centric Sunday night — “First of all, give an honor to God and our lord and savior Barack Obama.” Um, I didn’t realize Noel Sheppard watched BET.
So, it’s okay to call President Obama a Communist, a terrorist lover, Muslim, a foreigner and all manner of names, but it’s a problem when he is called a “savior” by a black person? I am pretty sure Jamie Foxx could care less what Noel Sheppard and his right wing buddies think. I’m sure Michelle Malkin must be frothing at the mouth over this too.
