VIDEO: Wolf Blitzer describes victims as "So Poor, So Black"

[TOOLZ]

In a rare moment of truth broadcast on CNN, Wolf Blitzer lets slip that the victims of the New Orleans flooding are "so poor, and so black." He immediately goes to a commercial break.

Funny.

Then saddening.

Then angering.

1. Howard Stern this AM:

played that over and over, with various responses.

"they're SOOOO ffffin' black!"



"He's Sooooo rich. he's SOOOO white!"

3. they also played a clip of Stern in NO over two years ago:

he'd read a few stories while there, and stated very clearly that if a storm like Katrina (didn't use the name, obviously) hit there, the levees would break and the city would be underwater.

so even buffoons like him realized the danger

2. I emailed him a piece of my SOOOOOBlack mind!

7. "It's like, how much more black can they be? And the answer is

none. None more black."

Edited to add: Wolf is a putz. He needs to spend some time in the Superdome. Without food and water.
