President Obama says he had nothing to do with Jay and Beyonce's Cuba Trip.

Jay-Z's lyrics aren't always rooted in truth and President Barack Obama has proof.
White House press secretary Jay Carney already denied Hov's lyrical claims of speaking with the POTUS about going to Cuba, as did Obama himself.

In an interview airing on NBC's Today show this morning, the commander-in-chief responded to Jay's "Open Letter" verse, revealing that he was never consulted about Mr. and Mrs. Carter's controversial trip. "I wasn't familiar that they were taking the trip," he said. "My understanding is they went through a group that organizes these educational trips down to Cuba."

But that wasn't the end of his candor. Obama went on to state that the White House is far too busy to be concerned with the travel schedule of hip hop's favorite couple. "This is not something the White House was involved in. We've got better things to do."

Sounds about right.

Man Charged With Threatening Obama With Ricin Letter

Original post: HERE

Paul Kevin Curtis, of Corinth, Mississippi, has been charged with making threats against President Barack Obama and others, the Justice Department reported on Thursday.

Curtis was arrested by the FBI at his home on Wednesday, and he will appear before federal court later on Thursday. If he is convicted, he could face up to 15 years in prison, according to the Associated Press:

An FBI affidavit also released Thursday said Curtis sent three letters with suspected ricin to President Barack Obama, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker and a Mississippi judge. The letters read:

"No one wanted to listen to me before. There are still `Missing Pieces.' Maybe I have your attention now even if that means someone must die. This must stop. To see a wrong and not expose it, is to become a silent partner to its continuance. I am KC and I approve this message."

The affidavit says Curtis had sent letters to Wicker's office several times before with the message "this is Kevin Curtis and I approve this message."
