"Here we have whole countries and their people disappearing and hypocrite Bush gives 1/25th that of Spain for help."

Sorry to disappoint you, but the US has so far pledged $35 million, compared to $68 million from Spain. Your calculator seems to be broken.

More importantly, that $35 million is just the start. It's what the administration could allocate immediately, without congressional action. Congress is putting together an aide package right now that could dwarf what any other country has promised.

But let's not spoil your Bush-hater rant with facts.

"9/11 looks like an insignificant blip on the world radar screen compared to what these people have suffered, are suffering and will suffer."

Only a complete moron and insensitive ass would call the deliberate taking of 3000 innocent lives "an insignificant blip" because many more lives were lost to a NATURAL DISASTER.
