The conservative firebrand has courted controversy throughout election season, offending everyone from Sandra Fluke to gays to immigrants. OBAMA OFFERS JAY-Z PARENTING ADVICE President Obama got a chance in a radio interview to answer a question that hasn’t come up in debates: What do he and his friend Jay-Z talk about? “I made sure that Jay-Z was helping Beyonce out [with the baby],” he told Cleveland’s z107.9. “And not leaving it all with mom and the mother-inlaw.” Jay-Z appears in a campaign video, and last month he and Beyonce hosted a fundraiser for the president at their 40/40 Club in Manhattan. 4 SUSPENDED FOR WHAT? A North Carolina seventh grader was suspended earlier this month — for sporting an untucked shirttail. Danielle O’Neal, 12, had to miss classes when the dress code violation landed her in in-school suspension. “Her shirttail was a good four or five inches below her sweater all the way around,” Pamlico Middle School Principal Lisa Jackson told Compass News 360. “She’s a good kid, but my job is to make sure students follow our school’s Code of Conduct, which includes the dress code adopted by the Board of Education.” The honor student’s parents are fighting to change the school’s policy.
