3. There is more to this than meet the eye
I sincerely think both ex Presidents are working at the healing process both internationally and within US.
What may come out of it who knows.

4. Bush Jr. has already blown it by originally pledging less than what
he is spending on his inauguration, for the Tsunami relief efforts. The world knows it and now he had to bring in Poppy and his ex nemesis to repair the damage.

What has become of our country when our president can't even promote goodwill without F---ing it up?

5. He has "upped" the donation to much higher now
from $35M to $350M, after the world press called him "stingy".

7. Japan pledged 500 mil right off the bat. Shrub upped the ante only
because he was forced to. Not because he has a heart.

10. The Silverspoon Sociopath's idea?
That is impossible. He has no ideas. He is a Sock Puppet.

What's Clinton up to? I heard that he actually likes the shrub and Poppy. Are these likeable people?

15. Well I have to agree with you on that one...
Bush is using Clinton to bring people together and help with the tsunami crisis and Clinton is using this opportunity to advance his career.

17. Sad that Bush has to use anyone to bring people together
and as far as this "advancing Clinton's career, " I'd say being President of the United States is well, "pretty advanced." :eyes:

13. I'm not contributing one Damn penny....
Clinton or not. The whole damn act is just to help correct little bush's bastard sorry mistakes. I will not do anything to glorify the bush name nor their sick dynasty. Fuck the Bushes and Clinton also for kissing ass with them.

Hope nobody in the world gives a penny to the clinton/bush fraud.
