yes hvp if I could I would send him flowers
Kanye chose this oppurtunity to express his own emotional feelings on the situation...and you all may be shocked but....
this telathon was NOT the proper time to do it!!!
I totally see where he is coming from....but this was a telecast for people to give money and then they see a celeb up there talking bad about the president, beleive it or not, it could have affected some of the donations!! NOT A SMART MOVE.
But dude was emotionaly and obviously nervous because he wasn't reading from the telepromter at all. Kanye West is on the cover of Time magazine (for those of you so dumb that you dont know who he is.) He is a very important entertainer in the hip-hop industry. He delivers a strong message in his music one that has NOTHING to do with drugs, crime and guns. Before some of you speak bad about the man, maybe you need to find out why he is on a magazine cover that many of presidents have been on themselves (TIME).
His statements SHOULD have been made, who else is going to speak to the truth to america?? That place looks like Hotel Rwanda and its horrible!!! Haven't seen the movie?? go rent it!!! go see how tourists (white folk) were allowed to leave first over the black folk with sick women and children.
You all know how I feel on the issue...and I'll be more than happy to battle on Monday. But I had a feeling someone would bring Kanye's comments up on this board, because you all cannot handle the truth.
"Bush hates black people"
what he should've said was
"Bush hates poor black people."
That would've been more accurate.
Have a great day folks
Qpid, good Monday morning to you.
Get yourself some bubble gum and a soda pop, you are in for a read.
First you need to know my stance:
I am not a Republican. I dislike the Republican Party and despise the Democrat Party.
Bush One sucked. Bush II sucks just as bad.
I fought hard in my miniscule sphere of influence to help put the repubs in power in 94. And now that they are in power, what are they? Crap. Pure crap, with a capital C. Correct me if I am wrong, but Bush has not vetoed one single spending bill in his 5 years of power. He gives plenty of lip service to his base, but his every action has been that of a liberal. The Republicans have spent like drunken sailors in a whore house district. They refuse to close our borders while illegals swarm across like locusts. They have bloated government to proportions Clinton would not have dared to attempt. They have massively increased welfare. They have increased the trade deficit. They are allowing the UN to have more power over us, when it should be slapped out of existence. ( I am surprised however that you do not adore him, for he is on your side, Qpid).
And I haven't even gotten warmed up.
Today's republican party is infested with liberals, and the democrat party is nothing but a bunch of Marxists. I am fed up with both parties. Everyone in government should be fired. New candidates should be put up. New
government employees should be hired. Term limits should be no longer than 2 terms for anyone.
Our government is horribly corrupted. Both Dems and Repubs.
Now, this statement: "Bush hates poor black people." Yes, I believe he does. I also believe you do, too. And all others that are, and will in days to come jump on the race card wagon. I know what I am talking about.
I do not know you, Qpid. Not sure if what you post here, if it to be taken seriously, or for effect. Either way, just expressing my opinion on what you care to share.
Not sure if you will care to answer me, but here goes, why are there poor people? Why do poor people remain poor?
I believe that most of those peeps who stayed are peeps who have lived off government all their lives, and counted on government to protect them. I have also believed that line of thinking is a big mistake. Well, guess what?
That hurricane could not have had worse timing for one living off the dole. It was the end of the month. Welfare checks are in the mailbox on the 1st. The local government declared a mandatory evacuation and even sent busses to the poverty sections of town. They refused to leave because they wanted to be there to pick up their welfare checks on the 1st.
THAT is what liberalism has done to our country. It has made people utterly dependent on government, which is the worst thing a person could do.
There is much blame to go around for everyone on this. But the bulk of it rests on liberalism.
You and others can hide behind the mask of "you're helping them", but I will call you, in your face, a LIAR!
Why all the upset? Nothing is going to change for these people as they knew it. They will still get their checks, they will still be taken care of. Hell, actually they will have brand new homes to live in. FEMA will do like they did in Florida, they sit up trailer parks, there they will be able to live as they always have.
You call that sweet? I call it hateful.
Go read the entire thread I posted then come back and post something that hasn't already been worn out.
THE FRIGGIN CITY IS UNDERWATER!!!
Apparently, the NO city council debated upgrading the levees during the mid '70s. They didn't. Instead they spent $600,000,000 to build the Superdome. Maybe people should ask the Saints what was wrong with Tulane Stadium!
