Tupac is dead, and the killer was never found.

know who Tupac was.

He was onstage with Snoop Dog at the Coachella Festival last year. (more or less)

This is pretty amazing. Not really an actual hologram, but an incredible effect nonetheless,

n/t.

We haven't seen the last of that stuff though.

From what I've read, it's a projection that gets bounced up to an invisible screen hanging in the downstage area. It looks a lot like a hologram though.

John Lennon will be the NEW Obi-Wan Kenobi.

Republicans think since someone claims to like Tupac then they will get the minority vote!! Basically minorities are stupid & will vote on the basis of what music folks listen to?

That is what i take from this. SAD!

All kinds of hip-hop-happenin', that cat.

Hey,
That's the first thing I thought of was how long ago did the guy die? Geesh, these idiots, just like Romney singing Who Let the Dogs Out? when he was getting his picture taken with a group of kids.

Modernity, something really lacking on their side.

Peace

to keep Tupac fans from voting.

who's a Catholic-turned-Mormon-turned-back-into-a-Catholic. That will make millions of Bible Belt heads explode.

after all, he knows who Tupac is...

with a saggy skirt and diamond-covered slats.

Clint Eastwood may have mistaken the identity of who was in that chair next to him. It may have been Tupac instead of Obama -- both are thin black guys after all.

He's dead for a long time now, like the GOP. Fitting that they'd try to raise his corpse in the body of Marco Rubio, hoping Lazarus rises from the dead.

Can they not sit through a few hours of videos of a black man?

You pretty much nailed it.

2Pac's death was arguably one of *the* major pop-culture events for people (currently) about 35 and under.

But that said, whatsername Republican is still a dumbass.

Bout 10 years behind too. How's MC Hammer?? Hope he knows who Beyonce is.

The GOP once again shows how tone deaf and culturally ignorant they are. Just because Rubio speaks Spanish doesn't mean that all the Spanish-Speaking people who are not Cuban will identify with him and vote republican. In fact, his being Cuban might be a detriment. Most people don't realize that Cubans who enter the US are considered "refugees" not immigrants. The congress passed some laws favorable to Cubans back when we were fighting the evil Communist threat and Castro had overthrown the US's puppet dictator Batista.

Also, there is the "wet feet/dry feet" thing. A Cuban who does sneak out of Cuba via a raft or other means and makes it to dry land in the US is not deported back to Cuba. Those found in the water are. This policy applies to no other Latino or Hispanic group. Any Mexican caught in the Rio Grande or on dry land on the US side of it is an illegal immigrant - period.

So there are special laws that allow Cubans an easier entry to the US that do not apply to any other group of foreigners. This has caused some anger among the Hatians, and several Latin and South American peoples that Cubans are treated "special." This fact may not endear many to Rubio.

But the blissfully ignorant GOP is still grouping all Spanish-Speaking people together as one group they have to win over. Not the multitude of different groups who are very proud of their individual and unique heritage and don't like being lumped together with everyone else.

On Edit: Oh, and these are not dumb people. They see a token Spanish-Speaker for what he his. An insincere attempt to convince them the GOP cares about Latino and Hispanic peoples just to get votes. They know that's all that matters and the GOP policies will still be there to screw them along with the poor and the elderly after they get the vote.

(And they'll NEVER understand why that's a problem).

.."the Jury" is out on global warming.

Rubio said "The Earth has been warm before and cool before."...as if that's some kind of proof.

or am i confused with some other one ?

"How can we really know whether or not the earth is 6000 years old?"

Obligatory fellating of the right wing religious nut bags, while trying hard not to look like an intellectual Neanderthal himself.

No wonder they want to defund schools. They don't want voters who are smarter than them or who can think.

I wonder if they are pandering to Conspiracy Theorists?

hhaaha

i wonder if he will take the douche type pics like Ryan did .

"The Republican leadership in the Congress tapped Jindal, seen as the fast emerging national leader of the party, a day after the White House announced that Obama would deliver his maiden State of the Union Address as President at the American Congress on February 24.

"Governor Jindal embodies what I have long said: the Republican Party must not be simply the party of 'opposition', but the party of better solutions," Boehner said in a statement.

Fast emerging national leader....

When your icon of African American Cool has been dead seventeen years, you're almost completely screwed. I kinda expect them to name Rand Paul as Rubio's running mate because he knows who Steve McQueen is.

What if he makes ex Rep. David Rivera SOS

Rubio may not be as big a crook as Rivera, but they're for sure 2 of a kind. Rubio knows all Rivera's shit and vice versa.

Riviera may try to extract something from him. Blackmail style! Let's hope that's right after he wins the primary.

know what the Bay of Pigs was?

And then she went on to be the personal shopper and outfitter for sarah palin in 2008? Well, MAYBE she knows a few things about shopping and accessorizing.

But she clearly doesn't know enough to realize that - just because you've heard of Tupak, or even know a few things about him, that can't gloss over sheer willful ignorance of changing times, changing attitudes, and changing demographics. Maybe she thinks cosmetics is all you need, but this is not claiming you have a clear complexion when you've simply masked the zits with zit-cover-up.

I watch the Food Network a lot and I know who the Iron Chefs are. That does NOT mean I myself am therefore adept and/or experienced in a gourmet kitchen in a high-stakes chef competition.

Poor little dear. I hope the GOP get LOTS more advice from nice little airheads like her!

who is now a Fox contributor and very serious person.

Hey, you've seen one republi-CON blonde, you've seen 'em all. Hard to tell 'em apart anymore...

went up in smoke, as I recall.....

To bring up a somewhat more contemporary rapper. The GOTP are just ridiculous and need to be laughed at every goddamn minute!

and then in a generation or two her party may have a shot at winning..

The media seems to love him.

Bush may have been a jerk, but he also knew how to schmooze the media...

The GOP believes that they don't need fresh ideas, just fresh marketing. They have no intention whatsoever of performing any self analysis or changing their views one iota. Instead, they'll focus exclusively on messaging, gerrymandering, and election rigging to get the power they want. How do these guys manage to sleep at night knowing - as they surely must by now - that they're striving to rig the system in order to keep themselves in power despite the proven fact that they don't represent the majority? What do they tell themselves that makes that palatable to them?

Even when they try to be hip, they're still in the stone age.

It should start with: "The first step is admitting you're an asshole."

He's so hip!

Very few "young voters" have ever heard a single Tupac single in steady rotation.

Maybe Rubio is courting real Hip-Hop heads?

Jesus, they're dinosaurs.

All of the young voters are listening to that I hear.

Not sure the 'pugs would want to advertise that too heavily these days, though.

I've never read anything more silly in my life than this.

Can't wait till they find out salt n pepa is no more.

she became a born again christen who more or less renounced her wicked ways...

n/t

tupac and cubans? ya right.....

And a little funny in a desperate kind of way.

Changing demographics - this will certainly corral the youth vote, the black vote, and the hispanic vote.

Democrats are in big trouble now!

After all, he undoubtedly knows what a whole six-pack is...
