India Quake Survivors Complain of Slow Aid

[Pipeline]

Interesting how people always look to outside sources to bail them out of a tough situation.

[D.P.Roberts]

Bush's fault.

[penelopesire]

I expect Rush will pick up on this tomorrow..lol. It's too good to pass up.

[Owl558]

I guess Bush didn't declare martial law or deploy the National Guard quick enough. Bush doesn't care about black people. FEMA is a disgrace.

[/sarcasm (as if I have to say that)]

[Andy from Beaverton]

Lets send the Ray! He can fix it.

[Black Tooth]

When will we be forced to pay for this too?

[dc-zoo]

Damn straight! Where the hell is FEMA and Bush? They need their debit cards now!

[SuziQ]

DANG! You mean FEMA screwed up again? /sarc

[ncountylee]

Lets send the Ray! He can fix it.

Area is too poor to offer the graft to attract Nagin.

[Mr. Mojo]

When will we [the U.S. taxpayer] be forced to pay for this too?

Soon, I suspect. My guess would be around $250,000,000. The Prez never misses a chance to attempt to win Muslim "hearts and minds" (impossible a task as that is).

[Apparatchik]

LMAO!

Nagin's plan: every mud hut with a capacity of over 20 people will be able convert into a fully operating madrassa to attract investment from overseas and stimulate the local economy.

We have to bring the people back to Ashamapundhi as soon as possible!

[RoseofTexas]

Holy Earthquake!! I just found out about the quake! Let me just say it...

IT'S BUSH'S FAULT!! W should have STOPPED the quake from happening!...(sarcasm/off)

[rellimpank]

--put Walmart in charge--

[toothfairy86]

Where's the Red Crescent when you need them!

[yer gonna put yer eye out]

Ray say he be habb'in dem skool bustes gass'in up right now.

[chainsaw]

This morning the MSM was reporting 30,000 deaths. Now it is down to 20,000. Is this just some more MSM incompetence?

[Chena]

I'm sure Saudi Arabia sent help faster than you can say "jihad". ;)

[SkyPilot]

You mean Gov Blanco is in charge of India too?

[stopem]

Truly while this is a disaster we really have enough of our own to pay for, I hope the President won't get generous yet again.

[drt1]

They've been trained by watching the US and the political and economic results of concocting tales of Gov't inefficiency and fault - Those results are enormous sums of money being rained down with little, if any, controls over where it goes.

These complaints in a country where many don't have reliable energy, communications or health services, if any at all? Give me a break!
