I'm really flabergasted at your response. Where do you get the notion that the U.S. has not engaged in extensive humanitarian aid overseas?

Besides the U.S. government, millions upon millions are donated either directly or in the form of services from private U.S. charities to many, many third world countries. We are not just building hospitals, we are putting our people in them, and our medicines and our doctors.

You know, you really sound like a liberal, the kind so bent on hating America that you are blinded to the great good America does around the world. Either that or you are a plant from Murray's office engaging in damage control.

Seriously, your comments are so "out there", so seemingly misinformed, I can not even fathom that you are being serious. You are joking, right?

I don't hate America, and I have been here a little to long to be a DNC plant.

Look at what she said, don't read some loud, crass, overblown partisan editorial, look at what she said. She didn't say "praise Allah, Allah Akbar, DEATH TO AMERICA!

There is a reason Bin Laden has so much support, there is a reason people refuse to believe he is responcible for 9/11 and there is a reason people are happy to kill for him.

All the Senator did was explain WHY Bin Laden is supported, and what America can do undermine his support.

It's a battle for the hearts and minds of the pathetic starving illiterate masses, it's no differant than dropping candy bars wraped in american flags over occupied Europe during the second world war.

The entire problem here is people have become to eagar to be offended, taking anything out of context just so they have an excuse to go ranting and raving. "Oh, Trent Lott is the reincarnation of Hitler, blah blah blah", "Some democrat trashes some obscure Bush policy "Senator _______ supports the terrorists, ship them to Gitmo, try them for treason, blah blah blah." People support Bin Laden because he does nice shit for them, "Oh, she is a member of Al Quada, she supports Bin Laden, off to the electric chair, blah, blah, blah

PEople don't support Bin Laden because they think he has a cool beard and they aren't born hating America.

If we don't win their hearts and minds, they are ripe for the picking by the terrorists.
