Likely, you're just parroting some b.s. spin, from moveon.org, mother jones or some other far Left wing commune outfit. This had nothing to do w/ Kanye personally, but the... ( and I can not believe I'm having to explain this to a grown woman..a very OLD grown woman, who should know better, but for some reason , doesn't ) ...idea that ANYONE could believe that Bush some how didn't CARE enough, and that was the reason those people died in Katrina, or that all those folks working so hard weren't being given any credit for their efforts, even in such a overwhelming situation. Yes, mistakes were made, and most by the state and local authorities, which only made the Federal support all the less effective. Kanye sees this now. But not you. You're still clinging to your hating Bush, first and last, simply because he won in 2000, and Gore didn't. "The modern definition of 'racist' is someone who is winning an argument with a liberal."

Quote:Originally posted by Niki2: Well, my take is that from watching the video is that it was a "gotcha" interview, that the guy kept trying to put "I'm sorry" into Kanye's mouth. And no, he didn't apologize; I took from it that he was trying to find the words to express that he DID feel there was an inequality in how Katrina was handled, and that more attention might have been paid if it were a white population, but that to call Bush specifically a "racist" was wrong, in that he couldn't know that. In other words, that the GOVERNMENT had behaved in a bigoted way, but to put it on Bush specifically by calling him racist was a poor choice of words. And that his remark grew out of anger and frustration about the situation and wasn't well thought out. I didn't get all that he was convinced Bush wasn't racist, only that he was taking responsibility for his choice of words.

He empathizes with the president, but does not apologize directly to him. Most of that was Lauer putting words in his mouth. He was trying like hellfire to get an apology....and ALMOST got one.

"I believe that in a situation of high emotion like that we as human beings don't always choose the right words." No mention anywhere in the whole article of any "I'm sorry" said to Bush. NOW you claim he said it to Lauer. But your own cite for that doesn't mention it at all. The modern definition of "socialist" is anyone who's winning an argument against a tea-bagger. AURaptor's Greatest Hits: Friday, September 24, 2010 I hate Obama's America. You're damn right about that.

Fuck you, you cock sucking community activist piece of shit. ... go fuck yourself, Mr. President.

Quote: Moving on. Kanye West is a disciple of Robert Greene's cult of 48 laws of power. Neither of his "outburst" incidents should be taken out of that context as if it never existed. Taylor west did not "Forgive" Kanye, she defeated him. She figured out how the game of 48 laws works, and beat him at it. Clever girl.
Quote: Bush is not clever, and probably never heard of 48 laws of power. He's a simpleton, and his feelings were hurt. The man is not a racist, it's the one thing that I noticed very early on, as almost the singular character flaw that he did not possess. Okay, he wasn't a philanderer either. Kanye is unhappy presently because he is not the center of attention. Bush unwittingly gave him a chance to be, but he blew this interview.
Quote: It's not that George Bush doesn't care about black people, or doesn't care about people, it's that he has no idea how to solve people's problems. He's put in charge of them, and then gets advice from an incredibly corrupt crowd of cronies, and the result is a heckuva job. But it's not ill intent, I feel fairly confident in that. The man has some deep deep character flaws, but these are not they.
