Over 8 million dollars so far donated to Haiti just from text messages!
The good thing is it's better than pledges as once you make the
donation, it comes directly out of your phone bill and you really can't
"not bother to pay up". Anyway, my point is, 8 million just from the
phone text system from Americans, not even counting the hundreds of
Charities folks are pouring money into. In contrast, India and China
have "pledged" a lousy 1 million dollars each.
Why do we do it, because nobody else will.. God Bless America!


Americans will give much more of themselves than any other nation
could dream of. Of course, the liberals can't stand that, so they'll
talk about China, Canada, probably Germany, Sweden, and any other
socialist country that does anything.

Did I tell you that Canadians contribute $250 a year to Charity.

The important thing to remember, is that is Canadian Dollars, not real
money.


Well Stinky, that's what is reported on income tax forms.
Most Canadians are modest and probably give anonymously rather than parading
around looking for a big pat on the back.

LOL, that is a good one, you are so cute. It is obvious you don't
contribute anything to charity.

I just realized that you are too stupid to understand the humor in your
post. YOU are the one who made the post about Canada's contribution to
Haiti, looking for everyone to pat you on the back.

It is obvious you are a loser, but you do make good canon fodder, so I
am glad you are up there.

Add to that the $100 million pledged by the USG and considering that the
pledges from India and China are probably gov't financed and we get a little
clearer picture of what's been obligated by who.
Tough part will be to keep the local and international lowlifes from
stealing large chunks of this kitty.
