You know if this was in another country we would help them out financially. Kind of like the Tsunamis, but I don't expect any country will come to our help. Not that I really want them too. Its just a point that you will never see them even make an offer to help us out. But when it is them then we are called selfish for not helping out. Just my two cents.

Wasn't there a big celeb filled telethon type show for the Tsunami victims?

It's because all those countries who scream the loudest that we are selfish Americans, for not giving them 3 billion instead of 200 million (or whatever figure) are the same kind of mentality of ugliness we now see in the looters......

they feel they're entitled to whatever they want; they don't care that they haven't earned it or deserved, or, *gasp*, that it really isn't there's to expect to have.

it's called selfishness and greed.

I believe we will see our allies offer assistance. Call me an optimist.
