" Because the money is not the government's to give."

Bingo. It really frosts my niblets; this tadue about the "US" contributing to the relief of other citizens of other nations.

That is what "private" charaties are and should be all about. Giving our "tax" dollars when we have un-solved issues and national debt here at home absolutely makes no sense. More so, like I said, it really bothers me. And it has nothing to do with the "Christian" concept of giving as the second poster tries to assert.

Grrrrrrrrrrrr

I'm sorry, I just find this horribly selfish. Helping out nearly 200,000 people is more important than our freaking national debt.
