I just watched MSNBC and CNN each spend a full hour showing the rescue of a doberman. A sickly, starving, but lovable canine protecting his owner's apartment. Watch out, that dog might "lash out at any moment!" exclaims Monica Crowley as the National Guard coaxes it into a kennel. Monica then said something to the effect of 'the owner probably left it to keep out the looters.'
Who wants to watch the news and see dead, bloated African-Americans floating about like logs amidst the floodwaters of New Orleans. I sure don't. I'd rather watch the heroism of America's National Guard saving puppies. Black puppies no less.
