Fools Rush In. Where others fear to tread. Haiti was a disaster area before the Earthquake. I was there recently. Anyone who has not experienced it has no idea what we are getting in to. 100 million would not even be a start. We are making a great mistake and the rest of the world is laughing at us. We better get the military out of there and just send aid. SOON!

first of all.....Haiti is not our responsibilty......

it has been a free country for 200 yrs....

the fact that we take care of the world should always be considered to be our good will, nothing else....

Could someone explain to me why an island like Haiti (where I have been many years ago) cannot find a way to survive - Instead of moving in every directions without acomplishing much - we could take buses and bring everybody OUT of Port au Prince, the one in good health at least, instead of seeing them stuck on the tarmack starving in town - I mean in these islands, you just reach with your hand and here is limes, grapefruits, papaya, mangos - you can fish with your hands or dive a little and grab a 10 pounds lobster - here is wild pigs everywhere and frankly, the only thing you need to be sheltered from is the rain - seems that they have machette to lude so they could use it to open COCONUTS!!! And build a little roof for the rain. COCONUTS for pete sake - water and food in coconuts. EVERYWHERE!!! Darn!
