Farrakhan Denounces Katrina Response, Calls March Historic Show of Black Unity

WASHINGTON (AP) - Railing against the delayed relief for victims of Hurricane Katrina, Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan said Saturday that the federal government should be charged with "criminal neglect of the people of New Orleans."

"For five days, the government did not act. Lives were lost," Farrakhan said at the 10th anniversary of the Million Man March. "We charge America with criminal neglect."

A crowd of thousands cheered as dozens of prominent speakers - academics, activists, artists and media pundits - spoke, recited poetry and sang songs in the 12-hour program on the National Mall.

Most of Louis Farrakhan's followers must have boarded that space ship prematurely.  C-Span is broadcasting the Million More Show and there is not anywhere near 100,000 there.

Michelle Malkin has some background on one of the speakers.

So Goes the Calypso Louie Show.

Hahaha - another moonbat rally with a smaller turnout than than people predicted. Looks like the Left's dreams of rerunning the 60s are going nowhere.

"What happened to the million?"

Undoubtedly Bush had them exterminated for two reasons: 1: To minimize those attending the farrahkhan soiree, and 2: Bush hates black people...why else would he dynamite the levee to flood the black part of nawlins?

I shouldn't have to but....(sarcasm/)

Just another round of Jackson's, McKinney's, Sharpton's and Farrakhan's race card poker. Ante up!

I suppose it's less impressive to call it a "few thousand man march". He's probably embarrassed that Cindy Shahdeen attracted a few thousand more than he did when he was playing a race card and she is just a wacko left wing nut.

Quote! " I was in tiny village in Mexico an the 17th of September, 1985, and Had a vision like experience climbing a mountain there on the top of which is a temple to the Mesoamerican Christ figure, Quetzalcoatl. And one of these little UFOs came over the mountain, and I was signaled from a group of persons to come, and I was beamed up into a small vehicle and carried to a larger vehicle where I heard the voice of my leader and teacher, the Honerable Elijah Mohammed saying these words to me." Bla-Bla-Bla.

Good grief and people believe this Dork, and what in hell is a Mesoamerican Christ figure?

The Muslims were among the first slavers, walking the black Africans East. How Black would claim to be Muslim is beyond me, taking Muslim names Mohammed?

Like Christ in Mesoamerica, I'd assume. Only in this case it's a giant winged serpeant who demands human sacrifice (and somehow looks enough like Hernan Cortes for the two to be mistaken). I'll admit I'm no theologian, but the parallels are escaping me.

...


And what exactly did FarraCON do as a response to "aid" Katrina survivors? He's done nothing but create dissention in America, it's the only $olution he and his carpet bagging ilk have ever known.

We can't play Texas hold 'em with these cards can we? Most of these pant loads have committed crimes that would have garnered long incarcerations and more than a few have been in the joint but they weren't held.

LOL! it's three words put together, Me-So-American ie.,
FarraCON is admitting he's "so (fraudently) American".

Me-So-American, he must have been listening to that song,
Me-So-Horny. He'sSuchAMoron

Black unity must be on the decline when you compare the first Million man march with this pathetic showing of "unity".
