Why can't we take no for an answer?

Let the thug nations take care of them.

The Drive Bys will still try to find a way to blame Bush. Other than invading the country, what else can we do?

Forward this video to :59 for one of the best things you have ever heard in regard to this issue. It is only 35 seconds long, but speaks volumes!

With the USA running a $4 trillion deficit/debt and there is a sinking dollar, oil pricing running out of control we are still generous enough to render aid to people anywhere in the world.

Conversely Oil Rich countries (Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Russia, etc) dont seem to care diddly squat except to sit on their collective asses and give a mere token nod or a few millions to ease their consciences.

“First lady Laura Bush on Monday also appeared to link the provision of additional aid, beyond the initial infusion of $250,000 from a U.S. Embassy emergency fund, to entry permission for the assessment team.”

And there you have it - the mind behind Jorge. Jorge, the President who spends U.S> money like water overseas. This is a thug government - let them solve their own problems.

Actually the French are right on this one.

But Jorge - like most globalists - wants to be President of the World instead of the U.S.

Not for nothing but it is amazing that the Prez and his wife want to help the disaster victims in Burma so quickly and he was so slow after Katrina.

“...but we want to do a lot more...”

Hey, Jorge, who is “we”?

It’s not your money.

Oh, please, let us send you some money. We’ve just opened a new line of credit with China; so we’re flush again.

Funny, just three years ago, the people there were expecting the U.S. Navy to come to free them from the overarching junta:

I would offer help just once. If they refuse, then screw them.

What does he mean by “allow?” Does he mean “please let us give you some tax dollars” or does he mean “please don't let the emergency assistance rot on the docks because we didn't pay the right bribes like Indonesia did?” It better be #2. I just finished sending my OWN money via World Vision. If he's ponying up my tax dollars as well, I want that money back.

We have offered assistance, let the rest of the wealthy dictatorships around the world help them out. Oh yeah, pretty much all the dictatorships and other communist nations are freaking poor.
