>How much aid do we provide Africa? Well, $15 billion in aids funds in over 5 years.

That was promised three years ago, and last I'd read, barely any of it had gotten there.

But I forget, you were the one saying the U.S. was being stingy in our tsunami assistance.

Again, if you can't see the importance of supporting our allies, so they have the tools with which to help us fight the bad guys, then I think that is another case in point of your inability to think strategically.


Like I said, our newest allies had to be bought........unlike our former allies. That was the only point I was making.

And its an important point.......one that can't be ignored.
