As a kid, my parents enrolled me in tap and jazz dance classes.  It was tasteful, graceful, and cute, and we performed like miniature Rockettes in a recital to songs like a jazzy version of “The Saints Come Marching In.”  The only girl in my dance classes who ended up as a sleazy dancer later in life was Elizabeth Berkeley, star of “Showgirls.”

Beyonce, Lady Gaga: Their Sleaze Now Performed by 6-Year-Olds

But, today, many more of these girls will end up like her. . . or worse.  The woman who taught me tap and jazz, Miss Barbara a/k/a Barbara Fink, isn’t teaching much of that anymore.  All around the country, little girls are taking hip-hop dancing classes, instead.  Instead of learning complicated tap steps and how to move gracefully, they are learning how to shake their butts and slap them, in addition to many other vulgar, sexually suggestive moves more suited to strippers, er . . . “exotic dancers.”  It’s disgusting and looks like a try out for a sleazy rap video starring JonBenet Ramsey. Little kids gyrating is sick. But, hey, if their idol, Miley Cyrus, can do it to a stripper pole on Nickelodeon . . . .  Yup, sadly, slutty moves are the dance step de rigeur for far too many of today’s young kids.

And unfortunately, with the, um, “magic” of the internet and YouTube, there’s a whole mini-industry of videos starring toddlers and young kids under ten, parading around as Beyonce and Lady Gaga in sleazy outfits fit for the local strip joint . . . to the direction and approval of their unscrupulous parents.  Some of the kids are from Brazil and other parts of Latin America.  But plenty of ’em are from right here in the good ole’ U.S.  There’s something a little warped about seeing a kid still in diapers slapping her ass and gyrating around.  The parents who videotape that and think it’s “soooo cute” are beyond warped.  You gotta ask when does crib pole installation begin? The internet is littered with so many such kiddie slut music videos imitating these two pop stars, the crib/pole combo thing may not be that far-fetched.

When an eight-year-old sings Gaga’s lyrics, like “I want you bad,” like Laura Fontana–a Brazilian girl whose parents have whored her out for a whole YouTube career of child-molestation bait performances–does, it’s creepy.  Another Latina tyke-ette, Arianna’s parents taught her to slap her butt for the world’s most over-rated song and video, Beyonce’s “All the Single Ladies.” When she and many other young girls all over YouTube are singing Beyonce’s lyrics, “If you like it, then you shoulda put a ring on it,” you hope these kids don’t know what the “it” the “you like” is referring to or why they are slapping their butts and gyrating around, stripper style.

Don’t blame Beyonce Knowles, you might say. Um, yes, I do. Her “House of Dereon” clothing label, referred to in the song, has some very disgusting ads in which young girls and toddlers are dressed as hos and she-pimps. And she and her Barackian husband, rapper and hip-hop record company executive, Jay-Z, have made gazillions constantly promoting their sleazy hip-hop lifestyle to an ever younger demographic.

Here are a few of the sickening and very disturbing videos.  Attention, child molesters, why go to jail for possessing child porn, when you can just watch this, and it’s totally legal? In fact, the first video is at the World of Dance in Pomona, California, and it’s sponsored by Paul Mitchell . . . the official haircare provider of future strippers in development.

Watch more of these disturbing videos of little kids slapping their butts and gyrating to “All the Single Ladies” . . .

Sarah Palin’s endorsement of liberal, pro-abortion, pro-illegal alien amnesty, Iran-enabling Republican Carly Fiorina should be a wake up call for the blind Palinmessiahteapartybots.  Sadly, it won’t be.  As nothing will.

The Company Sarah’s Carly Keeps . . .

You Betcha:  Carly Fiorina’s Friends, Jesse Jackson, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Etc.

They won’t care that the empty vesselette in a skirt suit endorsed a close friend of race merchant/shakedown king Jesse Jackson, which Fiorina is.  They couldn’t care less that Fiorina, just days after 9/11, gave a drooling speech about Islam.  I’ve written about both of these things, exposed by conservative Republican and Orthodox Rabbi Dov Fischer, in a MUST-READ article on Fiorina, which documents Fiorina’s expansion of HP into Iran and how she violated embargo laws to sell ink to the country.  Watch this video, below, and you’ll hear more from Sarah Palin’s latest “great American”:

Palin calls this fraud, Fiorina, “the Commonsense Conservative that California needs and our country could sure use in these trying times.”  Hilarious.  But what do you expect when Sarah Palin also praised pimp/drug/teen sex glorification artist Kid Rock’s “common sense ideas”?  Next, she’ll tell us the Pope is Jewish, because–ya know–he wears a yarmulke.

Another item for the “Shut Up & Act” circular file and waste removal industry, brought to our attention by longtime DebbieSchlussel.com liberal commenter “Norman Blitzer.” Actor Robert De Niro–and several of his fellow celebs–don’t believe in secure borders and want illegal alien criminals to roam free in the Great American Abyss.

De Niro, Jessica Alba and has-been C-listers Lindsay Lohan, Steven Seagal, Don Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Cheech Marin, and Danny Trejo all star in this short video mocking Arizona’s immigration law and those of us who actually want to protect our borders and national security.

I wonder–when one of them or one of their children is kidnapped by illegal alien drug smugglers in Phoenix who cut them up, limb by limb–if they’ll still hold this view.  Sadly, that will only happen to the “little people” who don’t live in gated, secure, luxe mansions in the Hollywood Hills.  Someone smoked too many spliffs  . . . and I’m not just talking about Cheech.  I’m talking about all of them. And I wonder how many of them use underpaid illegal aliens to mow their lawns and clean their homes. Plenty, I’ll bet.

De Niro should stick to something he actually knows about . . . like playing Mafiosi and deranged cab drivers. And the others should stick to what they know: bad acting.

I love comic books.  I love superheroes.  I love, love, love comic book superheroes.  And I mostly liked the first “Iron Man” movie (read my review), starring Robert Downey, Jr.  I soooo badly wanted to like “Iron Man 2,” in theaters at Midnight, Tonight.

But I didn’t.  I was bored to tears . . . and sleep.  Another movie critic literally awoke me from my slumber.  It was that slow.  And even though I had temporary sleepitude, I didn’t miss a thing.  There was nothing to miss.

This movie was a mess.  Yes, some of the special effects are cool.  But so what?  For much of the movie, Iron Man/Tony Stark is a creep.  We want our male superheroes, while cocky and self-assured, to be somewhat modest and unassuming, at least a tad nice and circumspect.  But that’s not what happened here.  Remember “Superman III,” when Superman becomes a drunken jerk and barely saves anyone?  That was Iron Man for most of this movie.  It’s kind of like the conceited rich guy you dated.  For like the first five minutes, it’s fun to be seen with him, but when he starts abusing the waiter, you wanna crawl under a rock.  Not cool.

Hey, kids, it’s time for another edition of “Guess the Religion.”  I’m sure his name is “Ismael” just by coincidence.  Probably a Wiccan or a Buddhist.

Religion of Peace . . . and Bomb Bags in Classrooms

New Hampshire police said an 18-year-old high school student is facing charges that he threw what is being described as a “bomb bag” into a classroom.

Manchester police said Ismael Bang, 18, threw a bag into the classroom at the city’s West High School that made noise and began to expand before erupting in a minor explosion.

The students in the classroom backed away for safety.

Classless? Yes.  Shamelessly lewd and juvenile?  Definitely.  Still, I couldn’t resist putting it up.  Sorry.  You gotta watch the whole thing b/c it’s not as funny if you don’t watch the second half where it’s all tied together.

The problem isn’t that they [Muslims] hate America, it’s that they like it and they feel guilty about it. . . .

Our culture isn’t just different than one which makes death threats to cartoonists, it’s better. Because when I make a joke about the Pope, he doesn’t send one of his Swiss guards in striped pantaloons to stick a pike in my ass. When I make a Jewish joke, rabbis may kvetch about it, but they don’t pull out a scimitar and threaten an adult circumcision.

–Bill Maher in an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper and in a monologue on his HBO show, “Real Time with Bill Maher.”

He may be an offensive liberal. But on Islam, he GETS it. On Islam v. Christianity, he GETS it. On Islam v. Judaism, he GETS it. Unlike the mainstream “conservative” talking head BSers, HE. GETS. IT.

Ignore Bill Maher’s comments at the beginning in favor of gun control (doesn’t make sense since he recognizes the Islamic threat on our own soil, and we need to defend against it).  But this is classic Bill Maher, the way he used to be.  He has the guts to tell the truth on Islam, which Bill O’Reilly, Sean Vannity, Glenn Feckless, and FOX News, and all the other wimps don’t have the guts to say.  Kudos.

MUST WATCH!

If only he’d made his movie, “Religulous” (read my review), with this outlook, instead of portraying all religions as morally equivalent to Islam. Appears he’s changed his mind since then.

Debbie Schlussel — a kind of all-purpose film critic, political commentator and Web opinion spinner

—The New York Times

It’s not the first time the New York Times has cited and quoted me, but it’s definitely the best description of me they’ve given. This week, the nation’s most liberal mainstream media newspaper, the one known as “the newspaper of record,” even cites me with approval as the paper’s Yiddish expert and confirms my Yiddish linguist skills are solid. All those years of listening to my parents and grandparents speaking Yiddish when they didn’t want us to know what they were saying (after we figured out the Hebrew they spoke before that), finally paid off. I wonder what my late father and grandparents would say if they knew the New York Times quoted me on the meaning of the word “schmuck.” Hmmm . . . . Here’s the full quote:

A few weeks ago, Debbie Schlussel — a kind of all-purpose film critic, political commentator and Web opinion spinner — took issue not just with the trailer promoting “Dinner for Schmucks,” about which she wrote on her Web site, debbieschlussel.com, “it looks like utter garbage,” but also with its use of Yiddish.

“The more correct title would have been ‘Dinner for Schlemiels,’ ” Ms. Schlussel insisted, if the filmmakers were trying to describe the geeky behavior displayed Mr. Carell in the pratfall-filled trailer.

Say buh-bye, America.  Yesterday, several Gilroy, California students were sent  home for wearing American flag t-shirts.  The reason:  this display of American patriotism would offend Hispanic students on Cinco de Mayo.

Fashion Tips for a Dying America – What Not to Wear . . .

Extremist Makeover: The Latest in “American” Haute Couture . . .

Um, which country is this?  Not the USA anymore, apparently.  Forget the issue of denial of First Amendment right to free speech.  That’s kind of beside the point when you are no longer allowed to show support for your own country because it might upset some illegal alien interloper and anchor baby kids.

Yup, the American flag–the one our soldiers died for–is now “incendiary” in our own country. Beyond outrageous:

Five Live Oak High School students’ First Amendment rights were challenged this morning when they were asked to leave school because they donned American flag T-shirts on Cinco de Mayo. Officials at the school chose not to comment on the situation, but one student said an official called the T-shirts “incendiary.”

Cinco de Mayo to us is like David Hasselhoff to Germany.

–Jimmy Kimmel on Last Night’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” on ABC, noting that Cinco de Mayo isn’t nearly as popular in Mexico as it is with illegal aliens in Arizona (and the rest of the U.S.).

America’s Got Talent
