The Grammy-winner and Atlanta native flicked off the audience before asking, “Can I curse in here?” But he didn’t wait for the answer, belting out “f*** you!” Cee Lo ultimately switched to the censored “Forget You” lyrics.

He lectured Republicans and Limbaugh about how to treat women and than has this lewd misogynist perform at a fund raiser. A great Christian example he is also.

Hypocrite isn't even strong enough. Pure demagogue is closer. Pure nothing special Chicago opportunist politician is most factual.

I don't know enough about Cee Lo to comment on the treatment of women in his songs, but I don't think having Cee Lo at a fundraiser is approval for everything he does and everything he says. It's a fundraiser. Ce Lo is a tool to raise more money, and nothing more.

It is nothing new that politicians curse, and put on a wholesome face when in public. According to the book "Game Change: Obama and the Clintons, McCain and Palin, and the Race of a Lifetime (http://www.amazon.com/Game-Change-Clintons-McCain-Lifetime/dp/0061733636)," all the mentioned people in the title curse like sailors, and are utterly selfish. I think it would be really hard to be a follower of Christ, and a US president. The two are based on totally different world views.

Meh.

Yeah, you're right. Nothing to see here.

No hypocrisy, and for sure no political grandstanding. Keep looking at Limbaugh, that's where the action is.

NBC, CBS, and ABC agree with you. They ran 2-3 Limbaugh stories a day for a week maligning his vulgarity toward women. Can you say, trying to gin up outrage?

How many stories did they run on Obama's lowest poll numbers ever, or the highest gas prices at this time of year ever? Well, not as big of stories evidently. Oh and have you heard, a President can't control gas prices. Do you recall that being said during Bush' years? Yeah, me neither. They just discovered it (and will undiscover it when the next Republican is in office).

So move along, nothing to see from this great Christian leader of ours. Just a lot of misogyny, hypocrisy, and demagoguery (in other words, a Democrat politician). Nothing else for sure.

Two Wrongs don't make a right so don't be looking to get Limbaugh off the hook. It's not even the same thing. If you don't like Cee Lo that's fine but make sure you understand what the hell the song is about that you are complaining about.


The official music video was released on September 1, 2010.[/URL] The video was directed by Matt Stawski and was filmed at a movie prop diner located in the Sun Valley area of Los Angeles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/****_You_%28Cee_Lo_Green_song%29#cite_note-Green-8). Taking place in a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diner"]diner (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/****_You_%28Cee_Lo_Green_song%29#cite_note-Green-8), the video chronicles Cee Lo's misadventures with a girl he has a crush on, known as "The Heartbreaker" throughout the video. In the beginning, a young Cee Lo goes into the diner with his parents and goes up to the Heartbreaker, who is sitting with another boy. He offers to let the Heartbreaker play with his toy garbage truck (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garbage_truck), but she ignores him and walks away with the other boy, who has a toy Ferrari F40 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_F40). In his high school years, Cee Lo works at the diner as a chef. He attempts to woo the Heartbreaker with a bouquet of flowers but slips on fries deliberately dropped by another boy. The flowers fly out of his hand and land on a much younger girl's lap. During his college years, Cee Lo studies in the diner with another woman, implied to be his music tutor. He then attempts to woo the Heartbreaker by having the waitress draw a heart-shaped ketchup mark on her hot dog plate, but the Heartbreaker approaches him with a basket of fries and spills them on his shirt, leaving a large ketchup stain on it. Cee Lo then goes through an epiphany in his life and the video fast-forwards to present day, when Cee Lo is now known as "The Lady Killer" and has a fancy Cadillac Eldorado (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillac_Eldorado) with his backup singers in the back seat. He drives past the diner to find the Heartbreaker working there, sweeping the front entrance while others are dancing behind her. Cee Lo waves at the Heartbreaker before driving away. The final shot is of him waving at the camera and the words "The Lady Killer" appearing on screen, before the shot freezes, thus ending the video.

It's a song about life and how things can change in life.

Also...there's 5 versions of the song.


A fifth version of the song, entitled "Thank You", was released on May 9, 2011. The song was re-written with new lyrics as a tribute to firefighters. The lyrics mention that Cee Lo's mother was a firefighter. A new version of the video was released with scenes of Cee Lo visiting a fire station.[ (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/****_You_%28Cee_Lo_Green_song%29#cite_note-2011May09-5)

I think you could learn a few things like being close minded. Even though the F*** You Version is a pretty hard Core Hook....he has tried to make sure the song could be played on the radio differently and if you wanted the hard core version you can go buy it. If you don't like the hard core version....there are other versions of the Song to listen to.

I really think Cee Lo did a lot of thinking about how to sell this song in many different ways. Limbaugh....I'm not sure he gave his little rant more than a few brain farts.

That's some funny stuff, justifying that lewdness at a presidents fund raiser as if it's just a normal everyday occurrence. I'm not getting Limbaugh off on anything. His ratings are the highest in his history, so his brain fart seems to have done him some good, unlike the advertisers that dropped him and who's stocks are now dropping precipitously.

As for Cee Lo's "art", yeah, no thanks. I'm not interested. I am interested in the double standards of how this is "different", just as Maher's calling Palin the "c" word and much worse is different. Letterman said Palin dressed like a slut, and too many liberal commentators to even name have said that and worse about her and many other conservative women.

But now, and only now, do we have selective outrage over those words because it was a conservative commentator talking about a liberal political activist. NOW, we are righteously outraged.

Puh-leeze, spare me. It's a political football that Obama and his crew (Media Matters and so therefore the MSM who takes their marching orders from them) carried and couldn't even last a week before showing themselves to be the hypocrites we all know them to be. You would have thought they would have played it out much longer before going back to their amoral ways, but they just couldn't wait. You are what you are after all.

Obama is the one that spoke about civility and how he wants his daughters treated. I guess he doesn't mind them getting flipped off and sang "F you" to as long as it's about life and how things change in life (like that's some novel thing to sing about). Of course, he didn't mind them hearing "GD America" from a supposedly Christian preacher's pulpit either, so am I really surprised? Not really.

Cee Lo did a lot of knowing that crassness and lewdity sells. He went for the lowest common denominator of his audience and was successful for it. I guess he knew his audience at the fund raiser too, huh.

I'm pretty old school in the 'how you treat a lady' department. That said, Cee Lo's song is actually pretty catchy. It doesn't really disrespect women either, it's more of a song about how the singer once (and still does) have a major crush and is moving on. I actually prefer the eff you version as I think it conveys its message more clearly.

Also, Obama is going to have folks at their fundraisers who probably have less of a stick up their *** when it comes to racy lyrics as compared to someone who might show up at a Santorum fundraiser. If this feigned outrage is supposed to sink in with Obama supporters, whoever is pushing this press release doesn't really understand the folks they're trying to reach.

You call that a lecture, Turdbucket? Laughable, thin skinned, crybaby playing the victim card. I wish my parents would have "lectured" me like that, hell MY kid's wish I would "lecture" them like that. Lecturing is telling republicans and limbaugh they shouldn't being saying what they said. He talked about his daughters being able to speak their minds and not being called terrible names. Did he once tell the republicans and limbaugh how to act? NO. Did he once say limbaugh shouldn't say it? NO. No "lecture" here. Constantly coming up with something that is not there. Saying **** you, not directed at anyone and going on a three day tirade calling a woman a slut, a prostitute and demanding she do porn so he can watch is the same, you're joke just like your party.

A lecture is an oral presentation intended to present information or teach people about a particular subject, for example by a university or college teacher....
