Gosh, the Germans are increasing their aid to Haiti. "Germanywould

Wow. You don't suppose they're doing that because the Americans are
donating more just by texting than their whole country is giving, do
you?
America is a pretty good country. Shame the liberals are always
putting it down.
U.S. Texting Raises $11 Million for Haiti
By: Reuters | Jan 16, 2010
Cellphone users in the United States have contributed more than $11
million to Haitian earthquake relief through text messages in what is
being hailed as an unprecedented mobile response to a natural
disaster.

Damn it. First the Germans go and do something just to make the U.S.
look bad (of course they didn't do it just to provide what aid they
could!), now those damned Israilis are going into Haiti and setting up
state of the art triage sites with the best field care possible. They
are doing that just to make the U.S. look bad, too, right John?

Americans in the good old USA have now 'texted' over $27 million for
aid to Haiti. Gosh, that's almost three times the German aid, and it's
only the contributions from cellphones.


You've gotta love this country, even if you're a lib who's preoccupied
with putting it down.


Why are you talking about Germans and Israelis trying to make the USA
look bad? That's what liberals do. Then they apologize for how bad
this country is. Germany is one of their examples of how great
socialism can be.


Right!

WHOOOOSH............


What do you think of the Israilis efforts? Gee, a country with a small
percentage of the resources that we have, a lot farther from Haiti,
sent there emergency management teams in there, set up complete
hospitals with state of the art equipment while we were trying to
figure out how to get water to a few people right near the airport.


Is Haiti going to become Obama's Katrina? You seem to make it sound that
way.- Hide quoted text -

Nope, we've done far better in Haiti than Bush did with Katrina, and
that was on our own soil. What I am saying, however, is that it seems
rather odd to me that smaller, less fortunate countries seem to have
their emergency management and response programs down pat. Maybe we
could learn from them??


Learn from Haiti??? Holy ****, you are unhinged. The only thing we could
learn from them is how to handle a situation like this on the street.

From most accounts, in general, the Haitian people have handled

themselves with class and patience... God bless them..


Actually, they are handling themselves much better than the NOLA
population did after Katrina. You're right, class and patience seem to
be the trademark.


Hey, wait!?? You and I are racists according to the lefties here, we
should hold back on commending good work in Haiti.


Scotty


I suppose you're right. If you're against anything the Democrats do,
you're a racist. Harry, Loogy, and now Thunder are singing the same
chant.

Another lie. Show me where I've ever called anyone a racist if they
are against anything the Democrats have done.- Hide quoted text -

crickets....

You and John should get a room. Seriously, this isn't the place for
petty fights. Life is too short.
