This isn't a 3am call...while this is an epic disaster the simple fact that it's "over there" changes the game dramatically for Obama. The US will likely see global economic impact but I'm not sure this will be dramatic.
And it also seems like we're doing about all we can. This isn't one of those situations where you can just throw resources at a problem. It's quite possible that doing the wrong thing could be worse than doing nothing. It does sound like we've sent a lot of expertise already.
Additionally, Japan is a sovereign nation after all...
Let's just hope the remaining 50 can work some magic, from what I hear they're getting a lot of radiation and probably won't be around much longer. My heart goes out to them...
