that 15 mil that smirk is going to send

to the Tsunami cause should instead be sent to the citizens of Fallujah who we haven't murdered yet.

and that merry band of men who paid smirk millions for the election can donate 100,000 mil to the Tsunami cause.

2. Oh nooooo. Those tsunami victims can just
Pull themselves up by their bootstraps as far as they're concerned. Trust me, you won't see too many donations from the 'compassionate conservatives' for this, whether they are wealthy fatcats or not. By god, if they don't want to get hit with tidal waves, then they shouldn't live near the ocean, is what they'll say.

5. Simply this...
ccbombs opined that the US aid to Asia would be stingy and the rationale would be "if they don't want to get hit with tidal waves, then they shouldn't live near the ocean".

My reply stated that FEMA and Bu$hCo would keep bailing Florida out.

Implied in my response is the observation that Bu$hCo will spend billions to bail Florida out because of the BFEE political capital to be gained. You won't hear Georgie or Jebbie say anything like "if they don't want to get hit by hurricanes, then they shouldn't live where hurricanes will occur".

9. Our "compassionate conservatives" say the gays caused the tsunami
so Asia deserved it.

6. We are already being accused of being stingy

US Secretary of State Colin Powell insisted today that the US has not been "stingy" in its response to the Asian tsunami disaster but admitted that much more international aid would have to be given.

"The United States is not stingy," Powell told CNN television after a top UN official appeared to criticise the world's rich countries for the amount of aid they give each year.
"We will do more. I wish that comment hadn't been made," Powell said on ABC...

7. IMHO, I think any dough that bush might be passing out should
go to the sick, poor and homeless right here.

10. It was the undersecretary for the UN that
said the US was being stingy by only sending $15 mil. Where were they when our Floridians were hit by THREE hurricaines?
