Also in closing of this thread, I'll like to post one last quote for the icing on the cake. For all the Americans on this board.. I say thanks for everything.
"The U.S. is holding back on foreign aid? I find that very hard to believe considering tht we are in the middle of a war, a defecit, just got done spending hundreds of millions of dollars on the hurricane crises in the south, and we still have to deal with the everyday expenses of existance.
Let's talk about those countries that are so much better than the U.S., such as Britain and Australia. Britain gave 100,000 and Aus. gave 80,000. Why aren't they being maimed in the media? Also consider that the U.S. had to deal with its own problems concerning the hurricanes. I don't recall ANY nation giving ten dollars to our cause, and I also don't recall any darn liberals whining about that.
Come on people, don't sit on your idealistic butt. If you really
were dedicated to the cause, you would give some of your own funds, or go over to one of the affected nations and lend some hard work. Sitting around complaining about the Big Bad United States not giving every shred of its funding to the tsunami victims isn't going to help anyone. Put your money where your mouth is, or shut up"
