Meanwhile New Zealand is doing just fine.

Despite suffering an equally bad earthquake even more recently than Haiti, the worst news from that island concerns “The Hobbit”.

Cholera is a BAD way to go. Imagine being immobilized, dying in inches your own puke and excrement.

Bill Clinton was the envoy to Haiti before the earthquake, and to the best of my knowledge, he still is the envoy..........probably off chasing skirts somewhere...........

Hundreds of millions of aid money missing, and other hundreds of millions yet delivered for the assistance of the victims, several months after the earthquake.........

Plus, Hillary is Secretary of State....but, she is too busy latching onto 50 million supposedly for safer cook stoves..........

And, Obama, he is too busy going on vacation, eating ice cream, playing golf, and blaming everything on the republicans..........

You mean all the UN’s horses and all the UN’s men haven’t put Haiti back together again? Hey, isn’t the Toon in charge of that effort?>
