Barack Obama has blasted Atlanta’s own Ludacris after the rapper recorded a profanity-laced support track in slamming the senator’s adversaries.

“Politics As Usual” delivers devastating tongue-lashing to New York Senator Hillary Clinton, Republican nominee for President John MCCain, and civil rights activist Jesse Jackson.

Ludacris rhymes:

Well give Luda a special pardon if I’m ever in the slammer. Better yet put him in office, make me your vice president. Hillary hated on you, so that bitch is irrelevant.

Paint the White House black and I’m sure that’s got ‘em terrified. McCain don’t belong in any chair unless he’s paralyzed
Yeah I said it cause Bush is mentally handicapped. Ball up all of his speeches and I throw ‘em like candy wrap
’cause what you talking I hear nothing even relevant and you the worst of all 43 presidents.

A spokesperson for the Democratic presidential nominee issued a statement Wednesday distancing the candidate from the controversial song:

“As Barack Obama has said many, many times in the past, rap lyrics today too often perpetuate misogyny, materialism, and degrading images that he doesn’t want his daughters or any children exposed to….This song is not only outrageously offensive to Senator Clinton, Reverend Jackson, Senator MCCain and President Bush, it is offensive to all of us who are trying to raise our children with the values we hold dear. While Ludacris is a talented individual, he should be ashamed of these lyrics.”
