Not So Young But Angry Conservatives Unite

Getting sick of the progressively worse slant and obvious bias of the media? Got booted out of other sites for offending too many liberals? Make this your home. If you SPAM here, you're gone. Trolling? Gone. Insult other posters I agree with. Gone. Get the pic. Private sanctum, private rules. No Fairness Doctrine and PC wussiness tolerated here.....

Do We Get It Now? Or How Much More Tragedy Has to Happen Before We Do?

OK, on December 26, 2004. A 9.0 Underwater Earthquake caused tsunamis to devestate South East Asia. The hardest hit areas were Eastern India, The Maldives, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Thailand. Over 130,000 dead are suspected lost and many many more are expected to have died in this disaster. As usual, the aide is pouring in. Japan has pledged half a billion dollars in aid. The US has started with $350 Million and probably will add to that. The US is also deploying an armada of carriers and freighters to help in the aide. US Naval and Marine helicopters and planes are evacuating people to safety. Britain has pledged billions, and even Actress Sandra Bullock pledged $1 Million to the International Red Cross. So far, it seems like we are banding together. Right?

Wrong.

One Norwegian Delegate- Hegeland said that the US was stingy and not providing adequate enough aide. Hegeland apparently dislikes US troops defending his land and right to freedom, but prefers to take our cash. The delegate also took a swipe at the US, saying we ought to be taxed more. Sorry, we won't do that, Sven. Apparently to him and others, the US is a cash cow that should not get ticked when hind quarters are chopped at. Wrong assumption there kids. We took offense, but we're still helping.

A British Lady, also said that the US, Japan, and others had no right to form their own aid coalition as it would undermine the UN. I guess she couldn't stand the thought of that final nail hitting the coffin of the UN. Between Oil for Food, Veto-gate, unpaid tickets, and failure after failure overseas, the UN may be done for. Never say die, says this European.

Odd, that the folks preaching being united wanted to be divisive. Striking is also that our troops who were called baby-killers and Goths were now called on to airlift people out and help in the search for victims.

Love-hate relations, they are a b#tch.

I guess a tragedy or war must hit some corners of the world for us to unite, but still others seem to need it hit close to home before they cast off their ways.

Be careful what you say and be careful what you wish for Europe. You just may get it.
