Don't know if anyone has heard, but tonight during a live television fundraiser for hurricane relief, rapper Kanye West attacked Bush saying "George Bush doesn't care about black people!", he then went on to say "I hate the way they portray us in the media. You see a black family, it says, 'They're looting.' You see a white family, it says, 'They're looking for food.' And, you know, it's been five days waiting for federal help because most of the people are black,". His comments stemmed from the fact that relief has been slow.

he's absolutely, 100% right on this one. think about if it was hitting texas, there'd be major relief FAST. most people in louisiana and mississippi are poor (and many are black... or of french descent (you can't forget bush's anti-france sentiment because of the war)).
in the end, i have nobody to blame but the 59,054,087 people that voted for him.

i'm surprised everyone isn't blaming bush for the hurricane and subsequent floods.
cos quite obviously, everything is his fault.

i dunno whether it was really a series of mistakes by the government of racial matter..than of social matter...yes in relation more blck people might be poor than whites but the argument that texas would have received help more sooner counts cos there's more "money" (by money i mean also better off people) to be saved.. just my feeling about it.

Some of these other musicians (who love to bash Bush )should also reach into their pockets or maybe take some of the $$ they make from charging 300 a ticket to their concerts and give that up.
