George Bush Don't Like Black People

Or, at least, Republican voters don't like Black Senate candidates. From WP:

Bad news for Michael S. Steele, the leading Maryland Republican candidate for Senate in November: The scuttling noise he hears on Election Day could be the sound of tens of thousands of white Republicans crossing over to vote for the Democrat.

In fact, white Republicans nationally are 25 percentage points more likely on average to vote for the Democratic senatorial candidate when the GOP hopeful is black, says economist Ebonya Washington of Yale University in a forthcoming article in the Quarterly Journal of Economics.

Gotta recommend this remix of a Kanye West song:

Five days in this motherfucking attic I can't use the cellphone I keep getting static Dying 'cause they lying instead of telling us the truth (...) Screwed 'cause they say they're coming back for us, too but that was three days ago and I don't see no rescue(...)

Swam to the store, tryin' to look for food Corner store's kinda flooded so I broke my way through Got what I could but before I got through News say the police shot a black man trying to loot

[...]

Five damn days, five long days And at the end of the fifth he walkin' in like "...Hey!" Chillin' on his vacation, sittin patiently Them black folks gotta hope, gotta wait and see

If FEMA really comes through in an emergency But nobody seems to have a sense of urgency.

I bet he had to go and check on them refineries first.

Making a killing off the price of gas. He would have been up to Connecticut twice as fast
