Since some of you folks are incapable of thinking past your labels, not all Republican&#039;s are like Bush, and not all Democrats are like some of the moron&#039;s in that party.

In order for us to return this country to the people, the people have to quit choosing sides and putting others under a label.

		<description>Every day since WWII, the President has been informed of the likelyhood of total world destruction on that particular day.  No amount of funds will stop catastrophies such as Katrina, or future catastrophies such as the &#039;big one&#039; in California, nor will any amount of funds lessen the impact of those catastrophies.  In fact, spending money in the name of safety for those areas prone to natural disaster only increases the number of people willing to risk living in those places.  Further, having a protective infrastructure supposedly makes managing disasters easier, but in reality they add to the impact of the disasters such as Katrina.

		<description>In these times of American hyper-partisanship, even the response to an act of God like hurricane Katrina is revealing. 

The disaster, which devastated the extremely red states of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, brought no snide claims of &quot;divine retribution&quot; from the voices of the left. No one declared that a just God wrought vengeance upon the South for its sins of slavery, succession, civil war, Jim Crow or more recently, its coronation of George W. Bush. Instead, the liberal blogosphere, led by sites like DailyKos, urged readers to come to the aid of their fellow Americans, providing news updates, offers of shelter for refugees and support for the Red Cross.

Contrast that reaction to the compassionate conservative response of the radical right to acts of God - and man. Time and after time, the mouthpieces of the American Taliban that now have the ear of the President and the wallet of the Republican Party praised the wrath of an angry God that smited their enemies for a laundry list of sins and perversions...

		<description>CC, we are not the most generous in terms of percentage of GDP. And that is the measure Bush likes to use for the deficit (not a record high), gas and oil prices (only 2/3 or 1980 prices), etc. 

Help like disaster relief goes from the rich to the poor, not the other way around. Suggesting the poorest nations should help us out is cold hearted, to say the least. It&#039;s like asking a homeless guy for all his change to help pay for your car tuneup.

You really must understand that we are richer than every other country. If all countries had the same GDP, then you could legitimately ask that question.</description>

Your argument is totally fallacious as the Duty Idiot from Crawford has never had an original thought in his life.  Daddy moves his mouth and Uncle Dick moves the spot where his brain should be.</description>

		<description>I agree Darth -- need to focus on helping the victims, not on talking about who helps whom.  I was just trying to make the point that the U.S. is pretty generous in terms of international aid.  Probably more generous than any other country.  It would be nice to see some of that generosity returned.</description>
