George Bush is white, correct? At least according to the pictures I see. The majority of the residents of New Orleans, black, right? According to the census and the pictures I see, right? Yes. Okay. Hurricane comes. Most of the suffering that we are shown is being incurred by black people in New Orleans who are said to be poor, who are said to be black, and about whom it is said Bush is happy this has happened. Bush doesn\u2019t care about black people. Kanye West and the rest of the civil rights leadership echoes this, and why? Well, because Bush is white. Okay. What if I were to say to you, &#8220;You know, Kathleen Blanco has been running the state here, she\u2019s in her first term. You\u2019ve had a bunch of white governors throughout the state\u2019s history and you\u2019ve had the population of New Orleans what it is for a long time. And you\u2019ve had the poverty in New Orleans among that population what it is for a long time. I think Kathleen Blanco hates black people. I don\u2019t think she cares about black people, and I don\u2019t think Huey Long cared. I don\u2019t think Edwin Edwards cared about black people. You know why? Because he didn\u2019t do one damned thing to help them out! He sat there, she sat there, all these people sat there while the black people of New Orleans suffered away in poverty as part of the entitlement state. I must conclude they don\u2019t like black people.&#8221; <\/line><BR\/>&#8220;Oh, that\u2019s outrageous!&#8221; you say. <\/line><BR\/> Well, is it any more outrageous than saying George W. Bush, who is not even in Louisiana, hates black people? They\u2019re the ones that had something to do with it. They\u2019re the ones promising black people to elevate them out of those circumstances, take them to the mountaintop. That just didn\u2019t pull. It must be because they don\u2019t like black people, must be because they actually want black people to suffer. Maybe it\u2019s because they\u2019re racists. Maybe they\u2019re racists. Maybe what you have in the case of Kathleen Blanco is really Pieter Botha. Does the name ring a bell, folks? Pieter Botha? He was the leader of South Africa who refused to let Nelson Mandela out of jail. He went to the end of his career trying to uphold apartheid. Yeah. P.W. Botha. Pieter Botha. It looks like we got some apartheid. Louisiana. You got all these white governors; you got poor blacks never getting out of those circumstances &#8212; and, in fact, you don\u2019t have even much being done about the rampant crime that was going on down there. We keep hearing that got worse. Maybe all these white governors in Louisiana didn\u2019t want to do anything about the crime because they wanted the black population to kill itself off. Maybe that\u2019s really what\u2019s going on here. Does this make any more sense to you than what the left is saying about George W. Bush? I told you, Mr. Snerdley, I was going to say something that might get me in heap big doo-doo, but I\u2019m just trying to put an A\/B picture for you, A\/B, side-by-side comparison. You have white governors; you have black people in New Orleans that are destitute, crime-ridden for years, for generations. Nothing is done about it. Nobody ever said during that, &#8220;Maybe those people just don\u2019t like the blacks down there. Maybe they just don\u2019t like them, and they\u2019re not doing much about the crime. It\u2019s black-on-black crime. Who cares? So says the governor rather of New Orleans.&#8221;<\/line><BR\/>Well of course now you\u2019re offended by this and you\u2019re outraged. &#8220;Rush, how dare you say this?&#8221;<\/line><BR\/>Is this not exactly what they\u2019re saying about George W. Bush? My point is: why is it believable about Bush to some people, yet totally offensive and outrageous when you say this about Kathleen Blanco or Edwin Edwards or Huey Long? Huh? Well, you know the answer to this. I\u2019m just trying to force you to think about this in a different way.<\/line><BR\/>END TRANSCRIPT<\/line><\/p>\n<paragraph\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Kathleen Blanco is white, correct?
