did anyone catch kanye west saying 'george bush doesn't care about black people' on live network television last night?

too bad the reality is that george bush doesn't care about people. period.
and that, even with our 'first amendment,' such a proclamation was still censored.

Censored by the networks, not by the government.

And, George Bush, being a man I don't like, isn't inhuman. He's just not a great politician and doesn't think of how folks perceive his actions.

In any case, I don't think there's much more that could have been done with NO after the 'cane hit. What people should be focusing on was the lack of preparation--seeing as how this was viewed by the Feds as one of the most likely natural catastrophies to happen in the US as long as three years ago.

the response could've been MUCH quicker.
the levees never should've broken
FEMA's incompetence has been noted as astounding, and if you read the comments by the head of FEMA (a Bush appointee), his perception of how things down here is...to say the least, inaccurate.
I agree with Aly...Bush doesn't care about people, period. He's a very self-centered individual. He basically does what he wants, and has little regard for how it affects others, and how people are harmed by his policies.
Public opinion, world opinion, little seems to matter to him.
It's all rather astounding...he might just be the worst president to ever occupy the white house.

I'd have to give the "worst president to sit" award to either Herbert Hoover or LBJ, myself.

Remember, there are a lot of people in this country that agree with a great many of Bush's policies. I don't agree with them, but what can you do?

people mourned Nero when he died.
Nero played the fiddle while Rome burned, Bush played guitar while New Orleans drowned.
read my entry about it!

I completely agree with all of this stuff here from you, and richardiv. (Don't ask who I am, I followed links out of boredom, but I know Shawn, so that's my excuse)

I have one answer, and one alone: Impeachment.

And nobody should say it's impossible, because it's been done before, with less reason, by less intelligent people.
