UPDATE: Welcome Michelle Malkin, Conservative Grapevine and No Pasaran readers, one and all. Please check out the rest of the blog, if you get a chance. My co-blogger Tim has been blogging full steam ahead on Katrina's effect on Congress' agenda this fall.

Amanda at Pandagon (rough language warning) is calling anyone who opposed looting in the wake of Katrina a "racist f---," implying that all of us think Jabbor Gibson should be thrown in jail for driving a school bus out of New Orleans and saving about 100 people.

She forgets to mention that he was widely applauded on many conservative sites, as he should have been, because conservatives draw a line between taking a bus to rescue 100 people and taking a flatscreen back to your flooded apartment. 

More race-baiting, here. Beth documents more. As does Michelle Malkin. More will come.

Jeff Goldstein's response. Ace's response, here (language warning). Here's mine.

Where are the pictures of whites being threatened, intimidated, and worse by mobs of blacks?
