how are black people more affected than white people?lowing wrote:
So with the lack of response to the 1.5 month old oil disaster in the gulf, the question now must be asked. Where is the accusations of racism by the Obama administration. I mean surely if a natural disaster could be blamed on Bush as a conspiracy to kill black people and a charge of racism levied, why couldn't a man made disaster such as this oil spill?
Indeed, if this were McCain, or especially Jeb Bush in the white house, these accusations would be flourishing.
So what is the difference, and where are the racially charged accusations that this is another attempt by the US govt. to kill all the black people?
and most noticeably missing, Kanye West claiming, Obama "does not care about black people"?
Again what is the difference?
dumb thread. totally ridiculous.
Nothing I say would matter to him, anymore than what he says matters to me, this does not negate my opinion and my observations of him, or anyone like minded.eleven bravo wrote:

Perhaps you have claims that a fuckin hurricane targeted only black people then, hence the claims of racism?
come to think of it you are correct. Not at all like you see in bugs bunny.lowing wrote:

This is very different. The specialised equipment needed to prepare/mitigate Katrina was all government owned. All the special equipment needed to fix this is owned by BP.lowing wrote:
the fact that it is a man made disaster, that is obviously beyond the abilites of the private company to deal with, the govt., should take over responsibility for stopping it, then worry about charging the private company later. Or do you suggest it continues until BP pulls their head out?Turquoise wrote:
While there is certainly hypocrisy on the part of people like Kanye, you have to remember that this spill was not a natural disaster.
It's generally assumed that the government is supposed to aid the public during a natural disaster. When a company is behind a disaster, the burden for cleaning things up should primarily be on that company.
Granted, in the case of Katrina, FEMA was less at fault than Ray Nagin and the Louisiana state government.
The paradox is only a conflict between reality and your feeling what reality ought to be.

As I said, I don't think the people affected give a fuck. They want results now, just like they did back in 2004, only difference is, back then when results were not forth-coming 3 days later They started with their racist accusations. Here 1.5 months later, where are the accusations in light of no action?Spark wrote:

Except that in 2004, it was primarily the government's fault for not doing anything given they had the capability. This time, they're not doing anything... because they can't.lowing wrote:

What was Bush supposed to do, part the waters through New Orleans? That was natural disaster, and you expect an instand man made fix?Spark wrote:

While a man made disaster goes 1.5 months and all anyone has done is watch? You rationalize the accusations of Bush wanting to kill all of the black people? and excuse Obama, as not being able to do anything anyway and it is someone elses problem? Are you for real?

If you want to take it as that, go with that feeling. Or you can just post against the OP. either one will suit me just fine.eleven bravo wrote:

i did. im surprised you believe bush doesnt care about black people after all that nonsense defending him over the years about katrina. i guess you flip sides on an argument when it suits your purpose.
