Kanye's Outburst

During "A Concert For Hurricane Relief" Kanye West let it rip with this unscripted comment regarding the current plight of the stranded in New Orleans:
"I hate the way they portray us in the media. If you see a black family, it says they're looting. See a white family, it says they're looking for food."

West also said (paraphrase):
"George Bush doesn't care about black people" and said America is set up "to help the poor, the black people, the less well-off as slow as possible."
