KANYE WEST

some rapper punk or whoever was just on trying to get people to donate money to the red cross. He was on with Mike Myers (Wayne's World). Mike Myers asked people to donate...then Kanye West went on a tirade about Iraq, Mike Myers said something else, and then Kanye says "GEORGE BUSH DOESN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK PEOPLE!"

WHAT A FREAKING OUTRAGE!!!!!!!!!

[MikefromOhio]

hey it's the same syndrome as the people that are ripping hurricane victims for not getting out.

He doesn't care. It doesn't directly affect him. Except he crossed a line, just like the hurricane victims are fighting for their lives in some cases.

Maybe there wouldn't be quite so much Bush bashing if, once in a while, someone in the Bush administration stood up and denounced these lying scum who freely smear our President as a heartless racist.
I just came back from cspan.org and an earful of Dr. Rice tenderly empathizing with these b------s. So I'm a little too upset to say more.

[trubluolyguy]

"Please, please, please realize that he does not speak for all blacks"


Agreed.


So long as you know I would be calling for the shooting of looters no matter what the color. A criminal is a criminal.

By the way I checked out your homepage...new I'd seen you before, I watch lots of news.

I admire your organization.

[Allosaurs_r_us]

It is absolutely rediculous to think anyone needs to apologize for some other dumb a$$. I would like to think the people here at FR are more intelligent than that.

We all know when an idiot says something this absurd they are talking out of their backsides and should basically just ignore it. If we let racist behavior like this fool's sway our opinions we are no better than he is. More of us need to remember that.

How may $millions in contributions did that tantrum cost the Red Cross?

[proudCArepublican]

I DONT KNOW WHO THIS A HOLE IS BUT I DONT SEE WHITNEY HOUSTAN, BOBBY BROWN, OPRAH, ALOT OF RAPPERS ETC DOWN THERE GIVING OUT WATER I HAVE BEEN SEEING WHITE PEOPLE

[Monkey Face]

Good answer!

[snuffy smiff]

yup, they're trying their best to act like nothing much happened(at least, 'Andrea was) until I told them NBC was still running it on the west coast AS WELL AS the MSNBC. website-up at the very top.

The RC can go piss up a rope.

[Marauder]

I think our president's pastor is black.

So is his Secretary of State, and so was the man she replaced.

Kenye West is just another celebrity who's abused his "bully pulpit" to make a total ass of himself.

[Irish_Thatcherite]

And he is also criticizing troopers who shoot at looters - so what, looters are very low forms of life!

[TXBubba]

You may have a point. But part of me resents the fact that I have to refute any distortions that the MSM has put out there. All people really have to do is open their eyes and there are plenty of mainstream hard working Blacks just going about their daily business anyway. Why must I grandstand like Geraldo?

And I understand your point also. I would resent it too! I'm just hoping enough people get their news from other sources that the MSM is truly irrelevant. But at times like these they have the eyes of the nation on them and they are doing their best to stir up trouble.

[MindBender26]

Why don't the radical Blacks understand that if they and NO are to be helped, it's going to be done primarily by White people, if for no other reason that White people make up the majority of people in the US. That may not be PC, but it is simple numerical reality.

Why spend time pi**ing off the people you need to help you?

Of course, such talk probably makes him a hero in today's "victimhood-oriented" Black community.

In a way, I feel sorry for the ghost of MLK. This looting and speeches like this have set race relations back 10 years. Please understand this is far from a racial indictment. It is a verbal tear more than anything else.

Be well.

[MikefromOhio]

yeah he has that backwards...

there will be quite a backlash from the 10 people that weren't FReepers who watched the NBC show.

[cyborg]

thanks for the ping...I'm not into Kayne West music. I like mostly classical and some jazz. He has some anger issues imho. I've seen his video on BET channel and it was good. He could be filed in the 'shut up and sing' category.

Salvation Army gets my money now.

"Celebrities, is there anything they don't know?"

[SouthTexas]

At least you got a reply!

Maybe they should have had the delay they make others use.

[SouthTexas]

Still waiting. ;)

[Irish_Thatcherite]

Thank you, Monkey, I may as well call it a night now! Goodnight to you!! Interesting thread, but I am tired! I'll find this thread in the morn' - most likely 1000+ posts will be there at that stage!

[bethtopaz]

Exactly! I guess many (not all) Hollywood stars feel guilty about having so much with such easy work and figure they'll look chic by being a liberal and saying stupid s%#t all the time.
