Since Charles Osgood was on vacation, the usually even-handed CBS Sunday Morning program reverted into full Dan Rather/Mary Mapes mode with several "Blame Bush" segments. This opinion piece by Nancy Giles was over the top and as classless as Ms. Giles.

What If They Were White?

How would the media react if they were black? Would jackson or sharpton have been there? Would the white people then have been looting instead of finding?

I am appalled by the racist bull***t of SeeBS and the other lying media. Who with a brain could possibly believe that anyone in this politically-correct era would deliberately hold off aid to the black and the poor? Utter stupidity and blatant lies.

But since seeBS and the others are forcing us down that road, let's imagine that the victims had been white. Would they have been shooting at their rescuers? Not likely. Would they have waited for Uncle Sam to bring a Greyhound bus outside and carry their TV to safety? Not likely. Would they have raped women and children in shelters and terrorized the weak to steal their food and water? Hah.

I really invite the left to explore the difference between the outcome in NOLA and in the predominantly 'white' areas which were even more devastated by the storm. Come on, let's take a closer look. You'll not like what you find.

Amidst the slandering of President Bush and the majority of Americans, you'll find a generous outpouring of help and aid and sincere sympathy. Amidst the race-baiters and demagogues you'll find only racial hatred and class warfare designed to tear this country apart and demand reparations for crimes that we are not guilty of.

Hurricane Katrina by its magnitude brought upon us a disaster that surpasses easy answers and quick solutions. But we're working and giving and doing our best, bending over backwards to relocate and support those least likely to support themselves. This is the true spirit of America.

Those that would use this natural disaster to sow the seeds of racial hatred and for political gain are detestable to the extreme. They shall reap what they sow.

Nancy, you ignorant, slimy, slut!!! Before you slander our president for not handling a state and local problem, why don't you speak to the efficiency of the mayor of New Orleans and the luvable guv of Louisana? Oh, I get it. That was not on the morning fax? Sorry, I realize now that you were only following orders when you wrote this!

Talk about a mind numbed robot who marches in locked step! Nancy is one of them who spews the crap.......

If you would like to see what would have happened if those in NO were white, then look to what hapened in the MS gulf coast. Of course, then THIS would NOT have gottens the coast-to-coast, wall-to-wall coverge by the MainStream Media.

An estimated 37 million Americans are living in poverty.

And they're all Democrats, coincidence?

It's not a matter of race.

It is a matter of personal responsibility. Some of us prepare for emergencies and plan ahead.

Some plan ahead for an emergency in the next month. Some people plan ahead for their children's college. Some people people plan ahead for next Saturday night.

It is not color -- it is drive, discipline and individual responsibility.

IMO - flame away

I'm sorry that poor blacks in New Orleans can't fend for themselves in the slightest....


....that they kill and rape each other

....that they feel it's perfectly ok to loot and pillage at their whim, for they are somehow "entitled"

....that they would rather stay and drown or otherwise suffer because someone isn't taking them by their poor little hand and leading them to safety and feeding them

....that their culture celebrates depravity, stupidity, ignorance, and violence.....and they now reap the results and suddenly don't like them

Yeah....just watch me shed tears.

Aaron Brown from CNN was doing the same thing on his program. He was talking to a black woman, and he was the one playing the race card. HE was the one saying that the reason they weren't rescued earlier is because they were black. Something should be done about the media when they inflame the public. You'd think they would have noticed what happened after the NewsweAk article caused people to die.

"What If They Were White?"

My sincerest guess is that they would have helped each other out a lot more, there would have been no roving gangs threatening, raping and busting into stores to get useless television sets. In short, there would have been far less chaos and much more order, resulting in less deaths and less misery.

If the majority of the hardest hit victims of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans were white people, they would not have gone for days without food and water ...
Correction: They would probably have gone longer.

The news mediots wouldn't have been down there making 'anti-Bush hay' and 'forcing' resources their direction; there may have been someone else who needed help more, but the news mediots even failed to investigate that and instead satisfied their desire to absolutely pillory Bush and FEMA ...

Seems to me the white people aren't getting any special attention what so ever. Katrina hit Florida first and Mississippi the hardest. When Florida was decimated in years past where were the race baiters, or is New Orleans different? Maybe the authorities in Florida can teach the Mayor and Governor a few things!
