You gotta love how these liberal shills in the media are bending over backwards to give 0bama the benefit of the doubt on his botched Haiti mission.

It’s Bush’s fault. Zero’s mouthpieces were all over Sunday talk shows with that line. He’d inherited everything, and nobody realized the depth of the abyss. (Haiti’s earthquake problems should have been solved 8 or 10 years ago.) All this said with a straight face. The reporters delicately asked if this excuse would fly and were assured, YES!

The world owes George W Bush an apology over Katrina. Also, that $57 million dollars raised by Hollywood will never be seen by the people who need it.

Last time I looked, Haiti was not a part of the United States. The US had no obligation to go in there and do ANYTHING, therefore deserves no blame for anything they might have done, early or late, to help out. The fact that the US and many private organizations & individuals DID help just speaks to its greatness and the generosity of its people. That being said, there are still no US responsibilities there. We can pick up and pull out at any time.

I had thought that the we and the UN were going to be dropping supplies into there on the first day after the quake. In my opinion, its embarrassing. I think that the UN is deliberately withholding supplies right now. I think they are doing it because they want the people to move out of Port-au-Prince. The reason I think this is because I heard an “expert” the other day on TV saying that the Haitians migrated to Port-au-Prince and there was no infrastructure set up. He said they moved there because they wanted jobs but there are no jobs. He said that they moved off farms because rice became cheap. Now rice is too expensive to afford.

That sucking sound of the UN at the latest world catastrophe is getting louder. What happened to the billions for the Tsunami a few years ago? UN took over immediately.

The fact is, people have compassion fatigue. The media so overplayed their hand with the Katrina B.S. that I for one just don’t care. I have my own problems to deal with these days. The media can scream all they want; their day of putting the guilt trip on people and blaming Bush now falls on deaf ears. I haven’t watched or listen to any televised media since Katrina.

I am unaware of anything being botched about it. What have you heard?

When the French colonials colonized Haiti they managed to live like kings off of the sugar cane, the rice crops, the indigo. Why haven’t the Haitians simply followed the same model and turned their country into a paradise of abundance?

By my logic, they should be loaning money to other countries and have a filthy rich treasury.
