My heart breaks for the victims of this disaster.

It just pisses me off to no end how other countries knock the U.S. all the time. Namely, France. We saved their ass, and now they hate us.

The U.S. helps everyone. We should be revered.

We need to remember that abusive people will never admit that those giving help could ever give enough. They hope to wring more out of the kind hearted through verbal attempts to make them feel bad and guilty that they have not done enough. And, actually, enough is not enough with these people until they have taken everything. So, forget the words of the critics. Look to see if THEIR money is where their mouth is..It is their stock and trade to accuse those who are moved to act through true empathy. The Narcissists feel entitled while the "love thy neighbor" folks do all they can and there is a limit to what can be done. Only time and rational support will help to ease the unthinkable suffering left behind by the Tsunami. In the meantime, ask a local leftist which is worse..An act of nature which takes the lives of the innocent or cruel dictators who fill mass graves with the innocent..Rational people want both kinds to be protected and rescued.

No, we should be upset that we have become a global welfare provider.
