Wow, Gil Gross, mentioned Vancouver's USAR team on Paul Harvey

News, pointing out they got there before any US officials.
See, now THIS is something Americans should be pissed about. The first responders to the disaster were from another country?!
Shows the true incompentence of the Bushies.

1. Not so much. They were not told to stand down at any point. You see
first responders were there...they just had to stop when the army wasn't and predictable lawlessness erupted. And the Canadians were sent to an area that wasn't an American City.

2. The point is, they
were the first people on the scene doing something... and they were told to stand down at the very begining because it was "too dangerous"

3. Yes. I feel sorry for the American First responders. Who had to stand
down in their own country. That must be terribly hard on the psychi.
