He was on holiday, ya know.
When the UN accused him of being stingy, he upped it to 35 million.
Congress, of course is on "holiday", and will wait until next year to decide on more contributions.
Meanwhile, millions are displaced, starving, in need of food, water and clothing. When we here in Florida got hit by hurricanes, we had immediate relief three times that amount. Could it be because GW's brother is Governor of this state?
The best comic relief came on CNN yesterday when a frustrated Democrat snorted " 35 million?? We spend that every morning before BREAKFAST in Iraq!!"
No shit, Shirley. Besides bombing their cities to smithereens, killing a 100,000 of them, torturing them and making a once-proud people hate us, we spend in-ordinate amounts of money saving them from a dictator, in the hopes of hopes of bringing them (get this) DEMOCRACY!!
Where's Nancy Reagan when you need her ("Just say 'no' ").
