The 40% figure you heard INCLUDES all the Iraq Bull Sh*t. And Bush is full of it. Bush is a neofascist insincere liar and a criminal.

Re: Last year I heard we accounted for 40% of the world charity. That's highly unlikely to be true. You must provide proof of such wild assertions. You are informed that millions of us do not consider arms shipments to belligerents across the planet to even remotely resemble "charity", so don't try to pawn off used arms aids statistics as proof of America's largesse. The only thing these massive arms shipments indicate are that the American taxpayer is being hugely played for a chump for the sake of profiteering by death merchants, and that the U.S. government is absolutely cynical about peace on earth. *** Here is an editorial written three days before the Sumatra event that categorically shows the U.S. to be the most stingy and Scrooge-like of all the OECD countries: Message 20900893 Bush's evasions, bizarre belligerence and manifold callousness in the aftermath of one of the most poignant human tragedies of our lifetimes is living proof of George Bush's utter moral bankruptcy.
