I don’t care what his motivations are- I’m sure they’re as wretched as always but I don’t care- the suffering in Haiti right now is beyond comprehension.

“All of Haiti’s population will be brought to the United States. Haiti’s disaster is ultimately our disaster.”

You can bet a lot of refuges will end up in the US living high on the hog off of government handouts.

We certainly need more low IQ third world types so the Democrats can get a bigger voting base.

“The best thing the US military can do is disperse help themselves, to not let the Haitian government get involved whatsoever. Those corrupt officials would fit in a Democratic ticket like a glove.”

Kind of like Detroit, New Orleans, ...

Bingo.....after we sink 20 billion into 'rebuilding' that hell hole

The presidential palace collapsed. Now, we wouldn't spend several million bucks rebuilding the palace would we? Not a chance. Nah. But if we do, if we do mind you, CNN will be all over it telling us all about it! Yes sir, they sure will... sure will. In fact, it could be considered a Haitian-style Stimulus package!

All of Haiti’s population will be brought to the United States. Haiti’s disaster is ultimately our disaster.

All the rest of the citizens of Haiti that are still alive will be able to occupy the homes in the states that are under foreclosure !

I can’t stand Obama but in this case, he has the ability to assure we get help to those suffering, asap! Yesterday isn’t soon enough for me!

I don’t think this has anything to do with color, it has to do with human beings who are alive, crushed under concrete— screaming out for help. Screaming for help, in a country that lacks the equipment and resources to free the suffering. It’s heart wrenching!

Where’s the pro-life sentiment? Help these people who are suffering from a natural disaster... they didn’t cause this. I don’t find any room for politics at this moment. Just get these people out from under concrete, get them medical help..now! Sort the rest out later.

Deranged Lib Keith Olberman really said some ugly things about Rush and Pat Robertson about something they were supposed to have said about Taiti just now. (I don’t watch him, I was surfing to see something about the earthquake)

He said Rush said that Obama would try to use Haiti to help him with with blacks in this country and Robertson said something about Haiti making a pack with the Devil to free them from the French.
He called them both idiots, racists, full of cr*p and lowest of the low.

Agreed, and the last thing we want to be is the party that ignored that suffering. We need to be seen as leading the charge to help these folks, not hindering it.

Can America really TRUST Democrats to forward ALL relief funds to Haiti ?

Sadly, someone has to ask this question.
