Bill Whittle isn't a racist. Certainly not:

Only a few minutes ago, I had the delightful opportunity to read the comment of a fellow who said he wished that white, middle-class, racist, conservative cocksuckers like myself could have been herded into the Superdome Concentration Camp to see how much we like it. Absent, of course, was the fundamental truth of what he plainly does not have the eyes or the imagination to see, namely, that if the Superdome had been filled with white, middle-class, racist, conservative cocksuckers like myself, it would not have been a refinery of horror, but rather a citadel of hope and order and restraint and compassion.

Interesting image. Michael Savage inspiring hope. Pat Robertson encouraging assassination of his fellow survivors to restore order. Ruch Limbaugh urging restraint while he rifled through the last of the medical supplies. And of course, George W. Bush, knee deep in foul water with snakes circling him, preaching compassion. Oh, yeah, I'd like to see that.

The Republicans say they're going to hold their next national convention in New Orleans (why not, they pulled the same trick with New York in 2004). Wouldn't it be nice to re-create post-hurricane conditions at their convention venue . . . and lock the doors for a few days?

Oh, wow! Someone who can fix a toilet, without tools, in the dark, when the water lines aren't functioning! What is he doing wasting time on a blog when there are so many places that could use his talents?

Meanwhile, hints for donations from someone who spent a little bit of time in the Salvation Army warehouse, passing stuff from hand to hand:

You can save time in the sorting warehouse by putting different categories (shoes, clothes, blankets, toiletries, toys) into different boxes and clearly labeling them. Remember that consumables are processed separately from non-consumables, so please don't put soup cans in with the basketballs. Please don't use the crappy plastic garbage bags and overstuff them.
