Rappers Don't Like the President

Many people, including We at the Blasphemy Blog, are angry with the President right now, but the person expressing the most public anger so far has been the rapper Kanye West. West went "off-script" during what was supposed to be a simple NBC appeal for relief money, and lit into the government response to the hurricane, saying, "America is set up to help the poor, the black people, the less well-off, as slow as possible...George Bush doesn't care about black people!"

Via Jesse Taylor at Pandagon, we see that some enterprising individuals have spliced West's rant with his song "Golddigger," creating a track called, simply, "George Bush Don't Like Black People."

Thus we continue saying nasty things about the President, even though we prefer not to say nasty things about people, just because he has made us so angry.

The latest reason? According to the Washington Post, the Federal Emergency Management Agency experienced a "brain drain" after 2003 because all the true disaster management professionals were being replaced by the President's political cronies. Yup, it makes us angry. Take it away, Kanye.
