They need more help than a few yachts pulling into their harbor. This would help, if there is one in the area... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospital_ship Bruce I believe one of the US ships is going to leave for Haiti shortly. -- Nom=de=Plume |

We are sending a hospital ship and the carrier Carl Vincent with a bunch of helicopters. I think they also should send a cruise ship or two to evacuate all the foreigners. The airport is still basically down although they are still taking some flights. I was thinking that they should send a cruise ship also, but not for evacuation necessarily nor at first. I believe cruise ships volunteered during Katrina... if I'm remembering that right. Ground transportation is also a problem. Today they were saying the airport was full of stuff coming off planes but they had no way to get it into town. They are sending a bunch of military people there to try to maintain some similance of order. I hope that doesn't get ugly. That always scares me. This could degrade to another Baghdad real fast It's got a history of getting ugly there... perhaps a breeding ground for terrorists, so all the help we can give them would surely pay off. -- Nom=de=Plume |

Plus there's no pesky federal law concerning state's rights to be obeyed by the feds in this case. |

Have you made a substantial contribution to help in the relief effort, I mean aside from the shovelfuls of right-wing bull**** you've slung here? I didn't think so. |

Pick one name and type it into the setup on all news readers on all the computers you use, or STFU about other people and their handles. Got it? |
