Monkey See, Monkey Do
So, conspiracy nut Kanye West get's some press attention for his blatantly ignorant, racially-charged remark that "George Bush doesn't care about black people," including here and here. It probably shouldn't be a surprise, then, when another ignorant (but opportunistic) hip-hop artist decides to ape Kanye to make a buck.
Dan Riehl has more, if you can stomach it.
I KNOW what racism looks like, I was raised in the south, Louisiana to be exact, and George W. Bush is no racist...
I have heard these idiots accuse Dr. Rice of not being BLACK enough, and heard them accuse Gen. Powell of being an *Uncle Tom*...
I have news for all these people throwing accusations at Pres. Bush... He's not the racist, YOU ARE... And it shows...
So, get over yourselves and dump the professional victim routine and the *hyphenated American* BS and just be an American and try working for the good of all and LOSE the Black vs White BS...

Moses made Israel wander in the desert until the old generation had died out, because they had been dependants of Egypt for too long to be responsible for themselves. It will take the current generation of black adults dying off before there can be any chance for young blacks. Say, about 40 years or so.
