Hypocrites on the left
The Washington Times ^ | 3-10-06 | Michael K. Fauntroy

Kanye West's charge last year that "George Bush doesn't care about black people" got a lot of attention. Liberals loved it and used Mr. West's words to slam the president for his failure to respond effectively to the flooding that killed and displaced hundreds of thousands of (mostly black) people in the Gulf Coast.

This is sad given that many of the issues on which liberals have the best ideas -- poverty and equality to name two -- greatly impact minorities.

Liberals' ideas on poverty is: Keep 'em poor.

Once again. There are no hypocrites on the left. There can be no hypocrisy among those who believe that there is no Truth, that Reality is a mental construct and that words have no intrinsic meaning but are only tools to gain and keep power.
