7. 1. Faith-based charities on the march

2. Compassionate conservatism
3. The unproven theory that private organizations can get the same goals accomplished as government on a cost-effective basis
4. Political influence
5. Hubris
6. Irony

8. Because no matter how appallingly, mind-bendingly awful things get,

Bush's friends will always always always make a buck off it.

It's like gravity. Axiomatic.

9. They also had links to some very reputable charities

The various denominational charities, the Salvation Army, etc.

I will put in a word for one people don't think about often-the Mennonite organization. When tornados struck Highland Park, MI and parts of Detroit about 7 or 8 years ago, the Mennonites were there helping. They were still there helping 6 months later, when everyone else had left.
