We did send military aid. We sent an entire Marine Expiditionary Unit. Thats a very serious amount of manpower. We also sent ships from another Expiditionary Strike Group to help with medical supplies. I'm not saying that I disagree completly with what you said, but why didn't we have more of our own military in the southern states helping our own countrymen after the hurricanes? That would of been truly inspiring to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9860029.post-1125060619357895022005-08-26T05:50:00.000-07:002005-08-26T05:50:00.000-07:00Ok, remember, i'm the president.

But it seems that more and more these days, politicians on all sides are focusing more on their personal agendas rather then doing what is right. No one is accountable for anything, making lying an easy escape from problems.<BR/><BR/>But, I don't think we can blame the entire tsunami situation on the government right now. As soon as the death toll stopped climbing and the amateur videos stopped coming, media coverage of those affected by the tsunami dropped almost completely. Most Americans have either already forgotten the tragedy or pushed it back in their minds. <BR/><BR/>The ineptness of the government and our peoples own complacency when dealing with these situations is a real problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9860029.post-1122925550516332652005-08-01T12:45:00.000-07:002005-08-01T12:45:00.000-07:00Man i hate when people critcize what we did to the...Man i hate when people critcize what we did to the indians we had to we were stronger they were weaker its just how things went back then. The strong survived, if we didnt kill the indians and that is exactly what we did america would just be another 3rd world countrie looking for aid and instead of you being able to critcize something that happend 200 years ago you would be getting killed by an overlord from some neiboring countryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9860029.post-1121836722554754922005-07-19T22:18:00.000-07:002005-07-19T22:18:00.000-07:00It's kind of sad.

No matter what happens, America gets involved and then the blaming begins. The only time I even try to defend what I do, is when somebody flat out says it (I guess I mean the wars in general) is wrong. Otherwise it's just a job. But like America (not the military but the government), the people making the comments stay in the safe grey area of half commitment. They make sure they cover the topic but only want to add to it as long as there is a quickly resolved opinion that can be easily withdrawn. I could use something to inspire me too. I think Bush tried but wasn't allowed to handle just what was on his plate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9860029.post-1121619071126988452005-07-17T09:51:00.000-07:002005-07-17T09:51:00.000-07:00Why not declare war on the weather and be done wit...Why not declare war on the weather and be done with it? <BR/><BR/>Seriously though, i'm pleased to see that there are still people who care about this.

Then, we had to pay taxes to somebody else for killing the indians ourselves. So hey, lets form our own government, where we don't have to be taxed for going to war with other people, while keeping their land.<BR/><BR/>In my humble opinion, I think that we should go to war against disasters, overthrow the governments in south Asia, and seperate ourselves from the USA. I'll collect the taxes, you can run the show. I'll pay you half of my cut of the taxes. Afterwords, we'll look like a super-evolved America, especially after we tax "countries" to become "states" in our "union". With Über countries like Japan, Germany, and France in our league, all the other countries will want to fight things that matter, and will join us. America will be too busy super evolving taxes to notice what's happened until too late. That's when we lay the smack down on them. We tax the hell out of their trade. We'll use it to pay for our disaster relief programs, and maybe some of our government costs, as long as you and I have enough filthy lucre.<BR/><BR/>Or, we could just take the easy route and try to run this country.<BR/><BR/>DoomtagaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
