Since when is "Gittin' it done," a bad thing??"
He forgot the "stingy" part.
The bitching commences...not from the survivors, but from our pals in the UN.
Complaining about the troops not spending enough time on ground taking what, a Christmas List? Jeez, they are rushing because there are so many people to help and so many places to stop---what is this UN fool doing?
Oh yeah, his first job is to bash America, then, help the people---now I get it---
How would he like it if they just left.
Man the Freaking UN is as bad as AARP nothing but a bunch of bitching USA hating Socialist Democrats
"They don't stop their engines. They're on the ground for five minutes," Elmquist told reporters in the provincial capital of Banda Aceh, on the hard-hit northern tip of Sumatra.
About all the UN ever does is assess the situation. Move aside, weasel-boy, and let the doers take over.
And forward it to:
Kofi and Kojo
Oil for Fraud Program
P.O. Box 2.2Billion
Paris, France
It is a good thing that Dan Rather is wearing a snap-link. I am sure that will come in handy.
"""The U.N. official coordinating relief efforts on Sumatra island complained Thursday that the U.S. military's aid mission was failing to coordinate and provide critical information to other relief organizations struggling to help survivors of the tsunami.
He forgot the "stingy" part. """
I think GW should get on tv and address Kofi Annan directly... he should simply say
WHAT PART OF THE WORD "IRRELEVANT" DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND!?!?!??
TSUNAMI -- Delivering aid stymies UN
As news media are increasingly dominated by footage of US, Australian and regional military forces actually delivering aid to stricken survivors of the Boxing Day tsunami, UN officials are carping about housing in major cities far removed from the front lines and passing around elaborate business cards.
It could make for a world-class wedgie.
They need to keep on the US so when the final Oil For UN Ambassadors charges come down they can claim it's all a US-driven smear to cover up our "failure" in the tsunami aftermath.
What Elmquist is really bitching about is that the Americans are delivering the goods and leaving before he and the other corrupt Indonesian political officials can get there with their TV crews and stand out in front of all that aid and take credit for it!
We'll leave the assessing to the UN. The US and a few others will get the job done before the UN assessment is in full swing.
It's a simple plan, really:
Get 'r done
The UN is the biggest scammer of all.
Bush should just tell these UN whiners to STFU.
Translation: the UN workers are not on the ground to receive the goods that are being supplied. So where are they? Probably in offices some distance from the sites.
"The U.N. official coordinating relief efforts on Sumatra island complained Thursday that the U.S. military's aid mission was failing to coordinate and provide critical information to other relief organizations struggling to help survivors of the tsunami.
Michael Elmquist said that while American helicopters were speeding relief supplies to villages isolated by the Dec. 26 disaster, their crews were not spending enough time on the ground to assess survivors' needs.
"They don't stop their engines. They're on the ground for five minutes," Elmquist told reporters in the provincial capital of Banda Aceh, on the hard-hit northern tip of Sumatra."
