Yeah, their building code laws/enforcement are top-notch.

That's completely ridiculous and racist. It's about people

help them.


It may be ridiculous but hardly racist since both groups of
victims
are predominantly black.


As though that's the reason Obama responded with dispatch. Like I
said....


You are the only one who brought up race. If this was in Memphis
he
would be reacting quickly too. They are all trying to say this is
no
Katrina and Obama is finally getting a chance to do something he
can
succeed at where Bush failed.


"Finally getting a chance"??? Any president would act without regard
to
where or the color of their skin. Even Bush reacted, albeit slowly.
You
said, ""redominantly black." Those are your words not mine.


My only thought about the political power of the Haitians is how
the
Florida pols are acting. We have the largest Haitian population in
the
US here and that is not lost on Bill Nelson. (Our D senator). They
would really like to replace LeMieux, the Martinez seat filler,
with
another D.


Political power has nothing to do with it. This isn't a political
issue,
it's a humanitarian crisis.

Please show me where I questioned how much someone did or didn't give.
You're a liar... that's nothing new.
You're so sickeningly innocent...
"Well, we know you're certainly not going to show up... doubtful
you'll make a financial contribution either. I'm sure you have limited
means, but even a dollar or three would help."
What I give or don't give is none of your business. Make your own
donation and hush.

As I said, I didn't question how much you did or didn't give. I offered a
suggestion. I don't care what you do. You're not qualified to tell me to
"hush."

No, D"plume. You suggested with a hint of foresight that he would not
be contributing anything to any charities, nor would he be going to
Haiti to lend humanitarian assistance.


No Mr. Woof. I stand by my comment.

And your independent thought is true. You are not average so he is not
qualified to tell you to "hush."


You're on a rant, but continue.
