Did you catch the Katrina telethon on tv? Some performer got yanked right after he veered off script with; "George Bush don't care about black people"

------------------------------------------------------
Kanye West used a Red Cross benefit to benefit his own personal platform Friday night during the NBC Hurricane Katrina Relief program.

In a disgusting (I found it the sad truth) display, West strayed from his prepared script to offer an overflow of hatred from his mouth, taking the spotlight off of the matter at hand, turning the relief program into his own personal soapbox.

Just before being cut-off by NBC executives, West stated: "George Bush doesn't care about black people."

West appeared on-screen with comedian Mike Myers who was obviously shaken by West's remarks, attempting at one point to stop the tirade. NBC beat him to the punch.

Other comments by West: "They're saying black families are looting and white families are just looking for food...they're giving the (Army) permission to shoot us"
