Boortz blames Hurricane Katrina on ‘parasites’ in ‘New Orleans.’

Thinkprogress:

On his nationally syndicated radio show this week, right-wing talker Neal Boortz attacked victims of Hurricane Katrina, saying that “the disaster that followed” was not “George Bush’s fault” because, in Boortz’ mind, “the primary blame goes on the worthless parasites who lived in New Orleans who you — couldn’t even wipe themselves, let alone get out of the way of the water when that levee broke.” Earlier in the same show, Boortz claimed that “when these Katrina so-called refugees were scattered about the country, it was just a glorified episode of putting out the garbage.”

A very ignorant comment from an ignorant person..

Well with Bush/Cheney in the White House it's understandable that their fellow racist will feel free to speak hate. I wonder what the Military families and soldiers who live in the Gulf States think of this comment. Many Soldiers lost their homes and others still live in the Gulf States while serving in Iraq/Afghanistan. Alot of people who couldn't get out of the storm were hard working tax paying Americans. Nice to know what the Bush supporter thinks of them. It sounds alot like Barbara Bush's racist statement on TV.
