Take a look at what this idiot has to say about Geo Bush's silence on the tsunami. It pisses me off when no one even brings up the fact that the UN's Kofi Annan was on vacation until the Thursday after the conflagration, and did not make any statement until the day after Geo Bush said something. http://forums.delphiforums.com/lightnetwork/messages?msg=15056.5
I also agree that the President does not have an open checkbook. But he kept silent about this disaster for 4 entire days before promising $15 million dollars of relief aid. Four long days that could have been used to rally the world to help. I wonder how many people Bush killed in those four days by keeping his mouth shut. However, he did finally get our message that relief was badly in need and has made a few pleas to the world to help. The U.S. is now in full rescue mode. I hope that we continue and start to think of the long term aid that will be needed to rebuild so many destroyed lands. These people will need our help for years to come.
