Exactly what was brought up in the other thread. Two totaly different people who took the pictures and unknown circumstances for each. Some people don't know how to look past the pictures and think with intelligience. Kayne was no exceptince to this. Just stupid, people trying to start arguments and promote their politcal views in a time of need.

And we all know how much the media likes to pump things like that up. But I guess thats just the media being the media. Another reason why I hardly ever watch the news. -tropictour

First off all as Americans we are all inherintly racist and the media easily prtrays this. Maybe Kanye was nervous. Maybe he is right and we are all to afraid to listen. For those who you who called me a moron this is the stuff Kanye is talking about and i agree with.

Pardon my French, but BULLS**T. We are NOT all "inherently" racist. There's little difference in that tripe and Femi-Nazis claiming all men are potential rapists because they've got a set of "tools" hanging between their legs...
It's so bloody simple it amazes me that it keeps escaping folks; look at the 2000 US census results for New Orleans and COUNT the population skew. The reason blacks are getting more air-time there (good and bad) than ANYWHERE else is for the following reasons:
1) Blacks make up approx. 67% of the population there and
2) New Orleans became a magnet and focal point for the media.
While I'll agree that the media definitely holds thinly-veiled political leanings (two guesses on which way the vast majority of them swing, but you should only need one), I have seen LITTLE to belive that they are closet-members of the KKK in their reporting...

Maybe he is a complete and utter cur who is not only an embarassment to himself, but his race, his family and multi-celled organisms in general. The filth and ignorance that poured out of his 2nd anal orifice that was cleverly disguised as his mouth is beyond imagination. While Bush certainly doesn't have his tongue in the nether-regions of the NAACP, he damn-sure wasn't sending troops in with "shoot to kill" orders towards people of color just for that reason alone, nor has he shown that he doesn't give a damn about blacks.
I think Colin Powell and Condolezza Rice would have something to say about that for starters, and Alberto Gonzales would chime in right along with them...
...or are you actually one of the folks that think that those three are suckups and porters to the "white" conservative establishment and they are just mouthpieces for Bush and his lackies?
Get real.
