Hey, you know what really grinds my gears?

When people say they don't like Kanye West because of his arrogance...well it doesn't grind my gears necessarily but in this case, it definately did.

Remember when Kanye West said that "George Bush doesn't care about black people"? I do. In fact, I remember sitting in the kitchen with my mom at that very moment like, "Yeah Kanye tell 'em!" Up until recently, I (for some strange reason) just assumed that the rest of black America was doing the same exact thing as me. Cheering him on, feeling his pain, "preach, brotha preach"'ing and whatnot. But I guess I was wrong. I guess for some people, Kanye West's arrogance overrides the great disservice that the country did for our black people out in Louisiana.

Incase you never seen it:


I say this because, I was talking to a friend last night. And we started talking music and inturn started talking about Mr. West himself. She said to me that the very moment she saw him standing there next to Micheal Myers, accusing George Bush of being a racist, she began to dislike him.

She explained why:
There is a law, that states that in the event of a natural disaster, the president cannot send in the national guard for help without permission from the Mayor of Louisiana. So, maybe it wasn't George Bush's fault. If anybody, blame it on the mayor. Basically.

So what she was saying basically suggests that thousands of blacks died, and continued to die, due to formality and complexity of the law.

Okay, that's understandable. But damn, there are soo many different things that you HAVE to factor in:
1. When you hear that a massive number of blacks are just dying and no one does anything about it, wtf are you gonna do? Look through the constitution to see if any formalities are keeping the President from being proactive? No, you get upset and say, "Damn, all these black people dyin' and the President ain't doin shit!". Basically, maybe he did it out of anger and not arrogance. Just maybe.

2. Around this time, Japan was just hit by a big-ass sunami. Unicef boxes (remember those?) were all over the place!

3. He said that like a couple hours after the hurricaine hit. I said a couple hours. It took the National Guard a couple days to get in there. Like 5 days farreal farreal.

4. Ask anybody in New Orleans, it looks EXACTLY the same today as it did when the damn Hurricaine hit. wtf

Somebody had a grudge against black people. Maybe not "Dubya", okay. But maybe so, Katrina was the only thing he was hesitant towards. The only thing.
