Well Bill, we thought you were a pretty smart guy: verbal, witty, erudite. I guess we were wrong. Like so many media hookers, all you really care about: celebrity and ratings translated to cash. FYI Bill, here is a short list of the Christian organizations involved in helping the victims of Katrina, many of them first responders, not to mention the record setting $500 million in private donations so far, most of it given by Christian people, and the thousands of churches being used to house suffering people, and the thousands of Christian volunteers feeding people daily. Pandering to a studio audience certainly is not helping the relief effort Bill. As we pray for the victims we also pray for relief from childish individuals like you. • Red Cross • Adventist Community Services • America's Second Harvest • American Baptist Men USA • Operation Blessing • Salvation Army • Catholic Charities USA • Christian Disaster Response • Christian Reformed World Relief Committee (CRWRC) • Church of the Brethren- Emergency Response • Church World Service • Convoy of Hope • Disaster Psychiatry Outreach • Episcopal Relief and Development • Friends Disaster Service, Inc. • International Relief Friendship Foundation (IRFF) • Lutheran Disaster Response • Mennonite Disaster Service • Mercy Medical Airlift (Angel Flight) • Nazarene Disaster Response • Presbyterian Church (USA) • Society of St. Vincent de Paul • Southern Baptist Convention • The Points of Light Foundation • United Church of Christ - Wider Church Ministries • United Methodist Committee on Relief • World Vision
