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.

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?
