Reply #17: too many people get pleasure from others' pain..

everytime I see a Repuke they start talking about the Tsunami just as it was another political issue. Last time one repuke began claiming that it was important because "they've been killing each other off in civil wars anyway."

One got pissed that we would divert so many troops and supplies from our losing War in Iraq. Another claimed it would "become another Bosnia", strange considering that was one of our best accomplishments. My impression has been most soldiers would rather be in Southern Asia and the Indian Ocean helping those who need us, than occupying a hostile country.

Republicans really want to blame someone for the sorry management and lack of aid to Tsunami victims, but we never hear them speak about the tragedy of losing over 80,000 human beings or what should be done to help.
