Right now people in Kentucky are enduring the devastating aftermath of an ice storm that has left more than 1.3 million people without heat and power, as well as 42 fatalities. Yet, there has been a poor FEMA response and no public response from the current administration. Does this make our current president racist? No, but it also means President Bush wasn’t racist when the Katrina victims and LA/NO politicians didn’t get their own acts together with the ample amount of prep time they were given.

Via Black & Right,  Bob Parks has been following this developing story and properly calls out the media and Bush’s critics *cough*KayneWest*cough* for their convenient case of tunnel vision when it comes to matters of FEMA and U.S. citizens who are victims of NATURAL disasters.

The very people who hated George W. Bush and his FEMA leadership, are turning their adoring heads away from a tragic situation because they don’t involve their favorite black victims, but “ordinary people” who aren’t as sympathetic to them. This coverage is a sham, the FEMA response is suspect, and our president’s conduct will be remembered by the people of the mid-South (whose votes he won’t need anyway).
