Besides, Haiti does not need more $. It needs a takeover. The land needs new soil. Everything from the top to the literal grassroots of the natural environment needs to be changed. Otherwise it is permanently poor, permanently dependent.
First intelligent post I"ve seen on this thread. Thanks!
Rush Limbaugh doesn’t see why you should donate to the Haiti earthquake relief effort. “We’ve already donated to Haiti!” he declared. “It’s called the US income tax!” He then goes on to point out that lots of churches and other groups are already trying to help.
Rush is a lot more interested in the "activities" he took part in next door in the Dominican Republic a few years back.
"Rush Limbaugh was arrested for carrying Viagra without a prescription to the Dominican Republic, on a trip without his wife (a wife who never shared his bed but instead lived a few streets over and only got together with him for social engagements). Rush was detained for more than three hours at the Palm Beach International Airport after customs agents found a bottle of Viagra containing 29 “Blue Pills” prescribed to someone else in his luggage. The Dominican Republic has a reputation for being gay travel friendly with opportunities of discrete sex with local boys and men. Indeed, the Dominican Republic is one of the biggest sex tourism destinations in the world"

Remember the political ideologue education thread? Republicans were beating their chests over them supposedly being bigger donaters to charity than Dems.

Exactly. Haiti needs a cultural overhaul. One side of Hispaniola...glorified desert. The other side of the imaginary line that is the border to the Dominican Republic...forest and resort.
Anyway, I have about $30 to live on until this time next week, so I won't be pitching in...oddly enough, the Haitian consulate here in Houston has no earthly idea of how to get any of this to Haiti with the flight restrictions in place, for starters.
Huh?
So, a local school makes a pledge to donate 10,000 bottles of water (among other things) for the effort and it won't get there before the UN rations do...if ever.
Cute.
