Cindy McCain, the executive director of the United Nations’ World Food Program (WFP) sounded the alarm on hunger in Haiti as gang violence rages on in the Caribbean nation.

“It’s catastrophic. We…WFP are still in there, and we are working in the north somewhat and somewhat down towards the center, but it’s a very dicey situation,” McCain said Sunday during an interview on CBS News’s “Face The Nation.” “We are continuing our school feeding programs, but once again, as you’ve seen, there have been evacuations of U.N. personnel out of there.”

Haiti, 95% black.

Same island, different results. Discuss…

I was at Homestead, then, and the word was that if you saw a Haitian laying in the road, you didn’t stop. They were robbing good Samaritans.

That was Meghan McCain she was pals with.

Tila Tequila, Vietnamese, has had a lot of substance abuse problems and after expressing admiration for Hitler and hating on Jews, Tila has kind of dropped out of sight as she has aged.

USA Needs to invade Haiti with an army, marines and Navy. Take over the island and bring food. Then, find a smart, cagey Haitian leader and set him up as a tyrant. Call him a President-for-life. Then leave him in charge and some aide and pull out. Let them work out their own problems—they will in time.

Make Hillary President of Haiti. At least part of her lifelong ambition will come true.

Only 11 million people to feed. No problem. Pocket change.
