Some posters have no shame and will use any dire situation as a means to an end. I am frankly bored by the incessant attack on our President, if he didn't send aide they would just as likely attack that decision as well. These are the same folks who claimed that anyone who spoke out against the Bush admin. was un-American, funny how that no longer applies. I think it's about time for me to take a break, how many redundant, hackneyed, and trite posts can one read?
Who might those posters be? I too am bored by the non-stop attacks on Obama. Just as I am with the non-stop attacks on Palin who isn't even a factor anymore. Party hardliners are all the same. Its the one thing they absolutely have in common. The inability to hold their own party equally accountable.
Once again, a compassionate conservative comes forward to stand on the backs of 100,000 dead men, women and children to politicize and attack the President.
Have you no shame?
Wrong. Once again a conservative watches exactly what they expect when a huge humanitarian crisis comes about: America rushing in to help as usual thanks to our wealth built through capitalism that other countries hate and liberals hate even worse.
It has to be pointed out in times like these how much we help to try and counter the liberal lies about how we are nothing but a greedy nation that needs to be taxed into socialism.

Because other countries never ever help???
Pure ignorance!
Because its the amount of involvment that many question. For Example Pres. Obama has pledged 100 million. Add to this the expense of our troops on the ground and their supplies. We are going to park a fleet of ships off Haiti's coast. Now how much did it cost to send that Hospital ship down there? The USS Carl Vinson and her airwing? Her escorts?
It turns into billions when you add it all up.
I am not against any of this. But to say the effort is equal is false. China landed a plane today. Good they should have. Now how many more will arrive?

Because other countries efforts may not be equal we are the only country that is doing anything?
Please point out where I said the efforts of other countries was equal, go on point it out to me.
Americans sure are good at trumpeting how we are the richest and best country in the world, yet when something like this happens some of you act as if every country in the world has the same resources we do.
Are you really that dense that you don't know what's going on? That you don't know the truth of that statement? Why the "if thats (sic) true..." preface?
Seriously - back to my first question to you - I'd like you to provide one single example of an apology that President Obama has made. You can't, because none exists. It's just another wingnut lie that a few easily duped people, you included, are eager to pass around.
Both points go towards your total ignorance.
