I'd like to see some #'s on what other countries have sent over here for donations to help with Homelessness in the US, or maybe some relief for the elderly in their medical costs or home heating fuel costs. maybe after those are squared away we can send some cash over to Africa.
as far as this being Bush's most significant event since he's been in office , well, Duh Yeah....before this his most significant event was making Boom Boom in the Toi-Toi all by his onesie. Everytime that tool is on the air I cringe because sooner or later he'll either Screw up the Punch line or dance for the cameras.....I keep expecting someone to reach in their pockets and feed him a sardine after every press conference.
and the French probably do give more....they don't have to funnel it into their Military....When they have problems they just pick up the phone and call us, we'll take care of it for them.
