Bush's response to foreign hurricane help: "Tactless"
"Bush's response was so tactless," a liberal told me today. "He could have told the other nations 'thank you for the offer but we'll handle it' but he didn't. My teenage daughter was yelling at the TV yesterday because of it." Interesting that liberals consider this "tactless" response from the President when asked during a live TV interview with ABC News' Diane Sawyer about his stance on hurricane aid from foreign nations: President Bush: "I'm not expecting much from foreign nations because we haven't asked for it. I do expect a lot of sympathy and perhaps some will send cash dollars. But this country's going to rise up and take care of it. You know, we would love help, but we're going to take care of our own business as well, and there's no doubt in my mind we'll succeed. And there's no doubt in my mind, as I sit here talking to you, that New Orleans is going to rise up again as a great city." State Department spokesman Sean McCormack told reporters on Thursday that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice decided "no offer [from foreign governments] that can help alleviate the suffering of the people in the afflicted area will be refused." Even the communist news service in China reported on White House spokesman Scott McClellan's briefing where he said: "[The United States is] open to all offers of assistance from other nations, and I would expect we would take people up on offers of assistance when it's necessary." 14 Responses To "Bush's response to foreign hurricane help: "Tactless""
//I would expect we would take people up on offers of assistance when it's necessary.// EXACTLY!! We don't find it necessary to beg after France and others for favors when they can barely keep their own countries running well. YOU GO, GEORGE!! TEEEEEEEJ/FIRST!!! #1 - Posted by: tjgruffs on September 2, 2005 01:01 PMWorst! Well, what do you expect from Chimpy McOilstealer? He's an Episcopalian, you know! We should send his foriegn ass back to Episcopalia unless he is willing to do undocumented agricultural work and vote the straight democratic ticket like a proper illegal alien. #2 - Posted by: Dr. E. Scientist, phD on September 2, 2005 01:02 PMScott, I didn't know your statements were appearing in Chinese newspapers #4 - Posted by: Frank H. on September 2, 2005 02:19 PMI understand Iran wants to send airport workers to New York, Miami and L.A. to help with refugees and security. #5 - Posted by: RA on September 2, 2005 02:30 PMWell we could always drop on our knees and beg the U.N. for help . They do have such a wonderfully untarnished track record as far as humanitarian efforts are concerned. Heck, the UN wouldn't even have to work very hard - the corrupt and incompetent Democrat public officials are already in charge of Louisiana/New Orleans. It wouldn't take long to arrange the kickbacks, and the Swiss bank accounts are probably already set up. #7 - Posted by: Master Shake on September 2, 2005 04:04 PMCharity requires not just those who give freely, but also someone who is willing to accept the charity with dignity: graciously and without a sense of entitlement. I don't know many liberals who understand both sides of charity, much less dignity. As for tact, I'll let you draw your own conclusions. #8 - Posted by: a4g on September 2, 2005 05:12 PMBush was raised Episcopalian, but he became Methodist, Dr. E. Scientist, phD. His marriage to Laura effectively exiled him from Episcopalia, which is now a liberal cesspool. #9 - Posted by: Damian G. on September 2, 2005 07:49 PMMethodism isn't much better these days, Damian. They've fallen for the same liberal lines that the Episcopos and the UCC have. Pomoze Bog. Master Shake- you are right about the leaders of New Orleans/Louisiana. Two great posts Nighthawk. Thank-you #12 - Posted by: Nylecoj on September 3, 2005 11:37 AMLinked to your site from a sane one. Jesus you are an angry man!! #13 - Posted by: on September 4, 2005 02:25 PMNighthawk- "What is/was needed was a strong figure to get on television and radio and say, lawlessness will not be tolerated..." Nighthawk... man, THEY DON'T HAVE WORKING TELEVISIONS IN NEW ORLEANS AT THE MOMENT. No leader can control the animals in New Orleans that are taking advantage of the chaos, and don't give a damn about anything but themselves. Hopefully the National Guard will give each and every one of the barbarians a little M-16 Therapy. And to defend myself from the coming and obvious attacks on my character, I'm not refering to race here. I've lived in New Orleans and visited friends and familes and partied there a least a hundred times, and nobody who has done that is shocked at the madness of it all. There is a definite Third World in the city, and now nobodies there to scare them back into their caves. And while I'm ranting anyway, I'd like a little slack for the only city in the U.S. with actual character. L.A. riots and burns when juries hand down verdicts. New Orleans got hit by the left hand of God, and its freakin levies broke. Would New York, Detroit, Chicago behave any different? There... I feel better. Ahhh..... catharsis. I think I'll go eat a steak and get drunk. Belloq #14 - Posted by: Belloq on September 4, 2005 03:03 PMPost a comment
