4. If this were one of his little wars.... this would be against the.. |
|
geneva conventions: "* The state Homeland Security Department had requested--and continues to request--that the American Red Cross not come back into New Orleans following the hurricane. Our presence would keep people from evacuating and encourage others to come into the city. "
But then.... they're quaint anyways

3. I read that they want to evacuate the city first. There is still |
|
danger of the levee breaking further. Sounds harsh but makes sense.
BTW, why are Bush and Freepers encouraging people to donate to the Salvation Army - not mentioning Red Cross. Just wondering.

7. Cuba also offered 1,100 doctors and 26 tons of medicine |
|
and Chavez has offered shipments of gasoline to aid poor Americans.
Why isn't Bush accepting these offers? Is Bush's twisted view of the world more important that meeting the needs of the Katrina refugees?
