You are off balance, willow. You would get seasick on damp pavement. Listen to Ollie, please.
No, we understand. A crisis of this magnitude simply cannot be coordinated overnight. It will do little good to the people of that country if everyone exhausts themselves by running around in circles and not accomplishing anything.Ok let me try to explain all this.
The US military (members of the rapid deployment force 82nd Airborne) are on the ground and have assumed control of the airport and are directing relief efforts.
There are multiple countries landing planes full of supplies and personnel.
Willow I understand the impatience however if we dropped a 500 gallon water buffalo in the middle of the city without troops to guard it and control the crowd, someone would get killed in the stampede.
It is not only supplies they need but security to make sure those supplies are handed out.
It is being dealt with. But it is the security protecting those we want to help that slows things down.
For those tired of talking and wanting to actually do something, see below.
Donate to the Red Cross
We've always understood that. Even as far back as Katrina. Further back then that even.
I just find it pathetic that there are people that come here that are willing to attempt to make political points off of a tragedy like this.
I've already sent as much food as I can spare right now. I won't donate cash to the Red Cross or Salvation Army as I just don't trust those organizations.
But I plan on going out and purchasing as much canned goods I can afford Sunday and I'll have it on the local transport out of here Monday.
I make an annual donation to the Red Cross, they have helped more troops than I can remember, I helped set up a video link with them (about 4 years ago) for a young lady who gave birth while the young father watched online from Iraq. The Salvation Army on the other hand will never get a dime from me.
Mullen: Up to 10K Troops Heading to Haiti - CBS News
helicopters, yes they are there sswipe and more on the way
so all the people have their water and fox and abc news told bald faced lies?? you swear on your grannies grave??
You can watch Diane Sawyer talking about the "disconnect" on the Today Show this morning here:
ABC Nightly News hasn't been posted yet.
Also Columbia, Brazil, China, and many other countries have brought in workers and supplies. So instead of being so negative about this, why don't you look at the facts and realize a lot of people have come together to help these people.
sucks to be you
good post Sarg, thanks, willow has been on the rag since this thing started, nothing would suit her at this point and no sane person really gives a shit
Nothing wrong with willow, just a bit impatient. Things are moving as fast as possible, The responders know what they are doing and it will speed up as they go.
The Hatian government has only today handed over control of the main airport to the US Military.sucks to be you
I know,, it sucks to be me,, I am imperfect.. however it's been 72 hours and the people are just as thirsty, no matter the response time.. glory in the response time.. the people don't have any water and it's been 72 hours in searing heat.

the us military just had control of the airport handed over to them today.
Willow hates obama and blacks so much it is revolting.
Fema is not in charge.
Obama responded swifty. If this were katrina...the us military would only be arriving today.
Haiti will thank god a democrat was in charge to act swiftly. Having a cmpassionate conservative (oxymoron?), would have the suffering and rescue efforts extended
and the reporters say we are 72 hours in and just like in Katrina very very very little aid is getting to the people.. Why in the hell don't the Perfect People use helicoptors to deliver food and water? we are talking about 9 million people here.

Assess the situation...load the trucks...proceed to the site. There's a tremendous amount of logistics associated with any major disaster relief. This one is unique, to say the least. I've heard that 10,000 US troops are on their way. That may not be enough...and then we have to support them also. There is more to it than loading up your chainsaw and driving over to the neighbor's to help him cut up a fallen tree off his house.good post Sarg, thanks, willow has been on the rag since this thing started, nothing would suit her at this point and no sane person really gives a shit

A little song for our right-wing whackjobs on the USMB who have been slamming Obama since the day he took the oath..

Isn't it funny how Willow's schtick tonite is about "perfect people"?[/QUOTE
well,, I don't know what else to call you,, democrats have all the answers, do everthing right know everything there is to know about everything and best of all they know they have more ethics more morality, more compassion and more perfectedness than Republicans.. thus you are Perfect People.. now! would you like an egg to throw?
The US military has only just gotten control of the airport.and the reporters say we are 72 hours in and just like in Katrina very very very little aid is getting to the people.. Why in the hell don't the Perfect People use helicoptors to deliver food and water? we are talking about 9 million people here.
its incredibly frustrating. But with the main port destroyed and the airport with only one runway im sure its just plain difficult for the aid workers on the ground.

The ships at port cannot unload easily as there are few to no cranes. Bill Clinton was on talking about how ships need to bring unloading cranes with their cargo.
Haiti is devasted and we have hateful wingnuts like WillowTree questiong the aid dollars Obama has promised: compassionate conservatism up close and ugly.
It would be funny if it were schtick.Isn't it funny how Willow's schtick tonite is about "perfect people"?

Really? We have presented to you that we have all the answers? Really?
I'm sorry for whatever demons are in your head.....I really am.
