Kanye West rips Bush during NBC hurrican relief concert. Appearing two-thirds through the program, he claimed "George Bush doesn't care about black people" and said America is set up "to help the poor, the black people, the less well-off as slow as possible."

What he should have said is George Bush doesnt care about poor people, which is a true statement.

He just doesn't care. And that also is a true statement.

Actually America is set up to help those that help themselves and give people a handup not a handout.
Who wants to support a nation of pan-handlers and loafers unless you'd like to live in a communist / socialist country?
There's no progression when the last on the totem pole is always coddled and holds back the rest of the class...
So the statement is pretty much spot on unless we consider all the organizations created to help those poor and despondent that were there before tragedy hit.

Besides, the very notion that Bush doesn't care is wrong.
If he really didn't care, he wouldn't have sent anybody at all.

I can't stand these comments. They are based on nothing, but some people's arrogance to make sweeping alligations with no proof. I have disagreed with his presidency from the very beginning, but these comments only further divide our already divided country. The best part of all, they are based on nothing but frustration. Yes, efforts didn't get their quick enough, then again this is the worst natural disaster or otherwise the U.S. has ever seen on its soil. On the Chicago fire can compare and that was over a century ago. Show me proof, perhaps a memo that Bush sent out that says F Black people, F New Orleans, but damn I can't help liking jazz music.

One of Kanye's points on the media saying black people were looting while white people were looking for food is a true story published by the AP NEWS Wire.

how am i racist you nitwit? please explain that picture then. oh also, those aren't my words...

that came from the thread in the CORe when someone pointed it out and it made mad sense. Also, in the other thread right here in PDD in the radio broadcast the mayor pointed out that most of hte looters are probably drug addicts who can't get any right now. Me racist? highly doubtfull.

EDIT: lol i thought about it and even if they wrote looted instead of finding for the guy and chick picture, black people would still find something to complain about here or elsewhere. there's racial inequality and then there's being paranoid like the Man is out to get you.

By making broad generalities like the black guys bag is huge so he must me a thief while the white girl is taking food make your statements racist. You have no idea if the black has food in his bag and the AP news writer claiming one person is stealing while another person is foraging is racist.

that wasn't too solid but if you can reply to the other part about ALOT of them being druggies and could still someone defend him by saying that he's not a looter...point being? you weren't there and neither was i but from the pictures it's more obvious the dude was prolly looting. ti panimajesh, brat?

First off we're comparing two different news reports from two different reporters...

To make a blanket statement saying the media is biased against black people based on two entirely different sources is really reaching and smacks of someone looking for an excuse to play their racist card.

I have no love of the media either but lets be logical about this.

Whoever the dumbass is that tried to make such a lofty connection should really go work for Michael Moore in his editing room...
