"We feed the hungry"
That is what your illustrious prezident said when asked (by Brian Williams) about all the good he was doing during his prezidency.

"We feed the hungry...after the tsunami."

Nevermind the hungry, wet, tired, thirsty, desperate people in this country just about a year ago today.

Nevermind the people in this country who were/are still hungry in this country.

I'm really glad he finally reacted during the tsunami, fiinally.

Pathetic man.

2. More like, "We spend $20 million to MARKET THE WAR TO THEM!"

Much better ROI for the Military Industrial Complex running the government.

3. We were late to the tsunami too
Doesn't anybody remember the outcry when countries all over the world were pledging assistance and Bush only pledged a few million and then the backlash was so bad that he spouted off $350 million so he could be the biggest and bestest pledger in the world, even though we were still near last as a percentage of GDP.

Anybody know how much money actually made it to the tsunami region?

5. Yep, thus this line:
"I'm really glad he finally reacted during the tsunami, fiinally."

4. Ask the hungry
where they got their last meal. I'll bet my best friends ass that it had nothing to do with this administration, and most likely occurred in spite of it.

6. The fact that the tsunami victims were more important than
anything else dimson could have come up with speaks volumes.
