you dont pledge a blank check. These people are idiots.
At the time we pledged the 15 Million, we hadnt yet known of the nearly 100,000 dead.

Hey Pinch! Dowdy! Butterfield! Kristof! Krugman! Friedman! Frank Rich!
You all got money. Why not shut the hell up and donate yourselves.
If there's one thing I can't stand, it's rich people bitching about other people being too stingy without stepping to the plate.

I would like to see a listing of the tsunami relief contributions made by the editorial board, staff, and owners of the NY times, along with a breakdown of the amount as a percentage of their income and net worth.
Please don't take to long doing this, guys. You know how awful it was that bush didn't make a personal appearance at his ranch until tuesday. Clinton would have been feeling their pain in a well timed appearance monday morning if he was still president.

Besides, the President didn't want 72 hours - the President was on the phone the following day the event - offering any needed supplies or whatever - according to the leader of Indonesia. In fact - the guy said that Bush was the first one to call and offer assistance.
So .. while the Clintons, the NYT and the Wash Compost are whining that Bush was on vacation and not paying attention, Bush was already way ahead of them. They are really small and pitiful people. This continued vilification of Bush will continue to lose them elections.

Sweden and Belgium also send more sex toy aid to foreign countries than the US does. I am surprised the NY Slimes left that out.

President Bush finally roused himself yesterday from his vacation in Crawford, Tex., to telephone his sympathy to the leaders of India, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Indonesia...
Nice-
Earthquakes, tsunamis, tens of thousands dead and the NY Times thinks the leaders of the affected countries are sitting around waiting on Bush's call to express his sympathy.
To: GeronL
I want to know how much the NY Times is giving.

Why do we get so worked up over this commie rag? We shouldn't even give them any extra publicity. The paper has no integrity and we shouldn't even give it any attention.

President Bush finally roused himself yesterday from his vacation... Never mind how many members of the New York Times editorial board are kicking in relief money, or even how much. How many members of the Times editorial board are actually working over the holidays?

I read where Kofi Annan was on vacation as well, and finally cut it short on Wednesday. Is anyone making a big deal out of this? Shame on George Bush for not rushing to Asia himself and head a burial detail and hand our food and water.
Where's Jimmy Carter and his hammer. He could already be building new homes for the millions.

It is obvious to me that their goal is not to help those who suffer..Their goal is a political one of trying to damage the image of America and George Bush. Read Ann Coulter's, "Treason," and the scales will fall from your eyes. The NYTimes has not changed in forever. Their goal is clear.

Victims of the earthquake in Bam, Iran, a year ago are still living in tents because aid, including ours, has not materialized in the amounts pledged The Iranian government chooses to spend it's enormous oil revenues on a nuclear weapons program, yet in the NYTimes' view, Iranian housing problems are our fault.

They want words which sound good but which may never deliver the promise..George Bush is long on integrity and action. He is not a political "gigolo." Promising tonight what he will never deliver in the morning.
