I'm not talking about large countries equivalent in size or larger than the U.S. - or a freakin' continent (Australia)- I'm talking specific countries in Europe, Central & South America. Nor am I saying they do not have the means to help. And why are you getting upset about other countries sending US aid? Why, aren't we just the type to take care of ourselves - we don't need no f*cking help?

Germany, Australia, Canada, and England, oh - and Venezuela (from the very beginning)- had offers of help just this morning. CBC had a page Monday evening listing agencies that Canadians could offer assistance or donations.

My point is that even stupid people in the United States cannot expect help from those nations who do not have the monetary or other means to help us and who are considerably less well off than some of those I've observed in NO.

I'll bet you give a gift with the expectation that you'll get something in return, huh? That is not what it's about. Help where you can, how you can.

even stupid people.....I'm jus' saying
