Katrina Was A Racist

Michael Graham has a humorous take on all the idiotic talk that suggests there were racial motives behind the response, or lack of response, to hurricane Katrina:
"[The Rev. Jesse] Jackson said evacuees from the Gulf Coast are not refugees, a word he believes suggests subhumans or criminals. 'It is racist to call American citizens refugees,' he said."—Houston Chronicle.

"Many black leaders have said that this [the response to Hurricane Katrina] is an example of black genocide." —A reporter at a Hurricane Katrina press conference held by the Congressional Black Caucus

"There's going to be plenty of time to make [hurricane recovery] a racist issue, and I'm going to do it." —Congresswoman Diane Watson, responding to the question.

OK, Jesse Jackson, you win. You figured it out. There's no keeping a secret from you and your fellow black leaders. So on behalf of the Vast, Right-Wing Conspiracy, I will now confess all:

Hurricane Katrina was a racist.

"Katy," as we called her in the labs of Halliburton, Inc., was unleashed by the Bush Administration and its evil minions in the oil industry using a super-secret, high-tech weather machine originally developed in the labs of Nazi Germany and passed down through the Skull and Bones Society at Yale. Just ask John Kerry—he knows all about it.

Of course Katrina hit New Orleans and its predominantly black population, and largely avoided the mostly white residents of the "Redneck Riviera" of the Florida panhandle. Don't you remember how Katrina started out hitting Florida, then swung around the entire state in order to get a clean shot at the Big Easy? All part of the plan.
It's pretty good, and you can read the rest of it here.
