"The response has been desperately slow."
-- Despairing comment from a doctor volunteering his
services in famine-stricken Niger, in the "Doctors
Without Borders" organization.
Berlin never went hungry.
But the Nigerians and the Sudanese are starving to death in droves.
Berlin:
http://www.trumanlibrary.org/whistlestop/study_collections/berlin_airlift/large/docs.php
Niger and Sudan:
http://abcnews.go.com/International/International/story?id=980433
http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/africa/9807/31/sudan.famine/
America USED to have pretty good presidents. And a handful of
top-notch ones, like Harry S. Truman.
Today, we have a worldwide embarrassment on our hands.
G.W. Bush. The President that Helen Thomas so accurately has
described as being the WORST President that America has ever had.
A horse's-***** "President" who does underhanded things like this...
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory?id=997056
...and who gleefully watched while (in 2000) his THUGS intimidated
Florida vote-counters, and his **cronies** in the U.S. Supreme Court
subsequently APPOINTED him.
Those hundreds of thousands of Nigerians and Sudanese who have
died from famine... are dying, and soon will die? Tough luck for them.
They have NO oil, NO necessary-to-the-USA strategic resources.
They're in Africa, and they're black. So to inhuman jerks like Bush,
they don't count and aren't worth helping of saving.
The only aid that they're getting is from compassionate private
organizations.
The West Berliners never went hungry, when the Iron Curtain tried to
strangle them. Our government flew planeloads of food and supplies to
them for weeks. Sure, it was political, and Bush, in the same situation,
MIGHT have done the same thing.
But at least as many people now are being threatened by a famine.
A Berlin-style could save MOST of them, even now.
I'll bet Truman would have helped them.
It probably would have been the "Famine Airlift" without hesitation!
But we already know from his track record that Bush, who's a
scheming lout who cares about no one but himself, and cultivates
his misperceived (and very bigoted) "base" of pseudo-religious crazies
by promising to veto stem-cell research bill that could ultimately save
MILLIONS of lives -- won't lift a finger to save the Nigerians and the
Sudanese.
(Like father, like son? G.H.W. Bush took about three days to
get assistance mobilized after Hurricane Andrew -- and THAT was
right here in the USA. But at least HE did **something**! Ultimately.)
In Bush's mind, it's probably: "Let 'em eat sand."
Which is about all that his legacy will amount to.
Talk about BLOWING a phenomenal opportunity!
Guess that's the difference between a President that history will
always respect -- Truman. And one that Americans (and the rest of
the world) will only shake their heads sadly about -- Bush.

'WAY more in taxes than I care to think about.
So it would really be nice if those hundreds of billions of taxpayer
dollars that are being WASTED in Iraq on the murderous folly of
our Warmonger-in-Thief -- could INSTEAD be put to such GOOD,
humanitarian, and life-saving use as a "Famine Airlift."
Otherwise, hundreds of thousands of people who neither deserved

Some GOOD news!! While in Washington State in late
June, 2005, I was heartened to see that voting booths are
being SCRAPPED altogether, and that ALL ballots hence-
forth must be MAILED in. And if *that* spreads nationwide,
that will put an END to "Black Box Voting!"
I'm not sure if that only applied to Yakima County (where I
saw the piece on TV), or was a statewide action... but either
way, it's a great start!!
Encourage your state to follow that vital lead!
Let's make our elections HONEST!!

So in other words, you aren't ready to practice what you preach. You bring
up the war in Iraq. However, we are not discussing the war in Iraq. The war
in Iraq is one we should have never started, but that is not what we are
talking about. We are discussing feeding people in a nation where no one
seems to want it to get any better. If we were not in Iraq, I would still
not want to be wasting our money in Africa. If you want so badly for the
Africans to have your money, send it to them yourself. I'm sure you can find
an address online somewhere. It's not the job of the American government to
provide relief to other countries of any kind but we have ALWAYS done it
anyway. We rebuild Japan after we bombed it. We rebuilt in germany. I don't
even want to start in on what we did for France. We sent money to the
victims of the tital wave earlier this year. How much has anyone ever sent
us? How about looking those totals and and showing us. You want money to go
to other countries? Send your own money to them yourself. Even the illegal
aliens from Mexico have figured that much out. Why can't you?

in Iraq is one we should have never started, but that is not what we are
talking about.
Really? What part of "horse's *****" in the subject header was beyond
your level of reading comprehension? Bush's murderous warmongering is
one **example** of what a horse's ***** he is (to be KIND to him, considering
the many far harsher and more accurate descriptors that could be employed
about him). The more ways that he's proven himself yo be a horse's *****,
the stronger the likelihood that his lack of action in THIS situation is
very predictable.
We are discussing feeding people in a nation where no one seems to
want it to get any better. If we were not in Iraq, I would still not want to be
wasting our money in Africa.
Saving the lives of very REAL and already-born PEOPLE is the opposite
of being wasteful. Those little kids that Bush could be saving could grow
up, in many cases, to be the people who might lead to greater modernization
in Africa. But not if the countries of the world having the capability
allow them to die from something as pointless and correctable as starvation
due to a climatic anomaly (i.e., prolonged drought).
If you want so badly for the Africans to have your money, send it to them
yourself.
By urging Washington to re-channel my TAX money **away** from the
quagmire in Iraq, and **into** humanitarian assistance for Africa's drought
victims, that is EXACTLY what I am doing.
I'm sure you can find an address online somewhere.
See above. I'm sending my money constantly. It's time for our
so-called "leaders" to stop pouring it down a rathole, and start doing
some GOOD with it.
It's not the job of the American government to provide relief to other
countries of any kind but we have ALWAYS done it anyway.
Not our JOB, any more than it was the JOB of the Good Samaritan in
Jesus' parable. It's just the RIGHT thing to do. And the Good Samaritan
neither hesitated, not asked for anything in return. An excellent lesson
to be applied in THIS situation.
We rebuilt Japan after we bombed it. We rebuilt in Germany. I don't
even want to start in on what we did for France.
REALLY??? Now isn't THAT a "strange?" You whine about our
helping the innocent citizens of nations whose leaders had been our
enemies, but then the fact that we helped our friend and ALLY, France,
seems to be too much for you to bear. You're WEIRD, you know that?
Not an ad hom. A direct observation based on your own clear statement.
We sent money to the victims of the tital wave earlier this year. How
much has anyone ever sent us?
When's the last time we had a disaster of a magnitude that we couldn't
EASILY handle by ourselves. When's the last time we lost a LARGE number
of people TO a natural disaster? The worst one was the hurricane that hit
Galveston about 100 years ago. That killed only around 2% as many people
as the tsunami did.
How about looking those totals and and showing us.
I just did. You lost, in spades!
You want money to go to other countries? Send your own money to
them yourself.
I'm doing that INvoluntarily. Every day. Right down the Iraqi rathole
where it is totally wasted. Thanks anyway. I'd far rather see my tax
money used to SAVE thousands of people, that to be MURDERING
them, as has been happening in Iraq,

They're not dying because of drought. They're dying because of a

The Good Samaritan was an individual.

Good, then you start. Hint: the Good Samaritan didn't forcibly take
money from others in order to help anyone. He did it himself.

And there are people who don't want to involuntarily send their money
down the rathole you are suggesting. Do you understand that? So, if
you want to flush aid down that toilet, do it yourself like the Good
Samaritan you claim to be. Others understand the roadblocks other
governments put up to prevent the type of aid you're suggesting
reaching the people it's intended to help. They'd rather see their tax
money go to something which can actually produce results other than
feeding corrupt foreign governments.
Chilton, you're constantly proving that you'll do anything to demonize
Bush including making a total and complete ***** out of yourself and
proving your own ignorance.
