Where is donald trump in all of this? Fidel Castro is sending Doctors from Cuba down to help they just said that on CNN
I agree. Almost every clebrity from the music and film and TV communities are making like million dollar donations and holding benefit concerts and such.
But...where are the Donald Trumps, Leona Helmsleys, Hilton Dynasty (Paris' Father Nicky who is a billionaire), Bill Gates, Rupert Murdochs,...all the multi-BILLIONAIRES who could easil;y afford to help and donate money.
.............Also.........The ''One Campaign'' started by Bob Geldof and...alot of music and film stars........IS involved and IS helping in this.
..........I am on the ''One Campaign's'' email newsletter list and this morning I received an email press release from actor George Clooney informing people how to donate funds, food, clothing, or volunteer through the American Red Cross.
....Taylorgaga and every one who thought the ''One Campaign'' was a one tine thing....even though I keep telling you all, it is an ongoing charity with a website,....it was not formed to only help out Africa........
......The ''One Campaign'' helps out any nation in need from natural disaster's and war, and they ARE actively involved with helping the USA, and the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Maybe Donald Trump, Bill Gates and other rich folks have donated money and don't wish to have it plastered all over the media.

Not sure about Trump but I know that when Bill Gates gives, he always does it anonymously. Bob's right.
@Smittygecko:
What is his job and his responsibility then... watch people dying, looting and raping in "God´s own country" and have a bbq for a couple of days??? So glad he wasn´t "on duty" when the Berlin Wall was build....
Do you think YOU could do a better job?
and besides...
YOU AREN'T EVEN FROM THE USA SO WHAT DO YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON EXCEPT FROM WHAT YOU'VE HEARD FROM THE SLANTED MEDIA (no offence to any people who work for a media organization and do not apply). But really!!?? I'm amazed. Look he is not down there because he has many other jobs to uphold. Do you think anybody in their right mind of power wold go down there when police officers are being taken out by snipers protecting people looting stores? Huh? You need to think before you speak and SHUT UP BEFORE YOU SAY SOMETHING STUPID!!
The Islamic Raji's are now saying it was Allah that caused the hurricane and destruction in the U.S.
I don't think Bush is guilty of anything here except not getting down there quicker and getting things done.
You mean like some of the American minister's were saying about their god and the tsunami last Christmas? :P
Bush might not be personally responsible this time, but he is the highest ranking government official, and as such people will vent their frustration on him anyway.

Allah, God, it doesn't matter to me. We all have the same God (or "creator" if you will).
And I personally believe, while I'll make it clear that I am NOT a religious person (despite my being baptized a Roman Catholic), that this is our God's punishment on the Americans for the Iraqi war

Brilliant - now, explain 'His' punishment on America when hurricanes batter the country and they are not at war.*

So, God is punishing us for helping innocent Iraqis live in democracy without a brutal dictator?
Every time something bad happens in America people talk about Iraq and Bush trying to proove something, conecting facts that doesn`t have anything to do with each other, etc.
When we want to say bad things it`s easy, just wait for an oportunuty, even if it sounds stupid.
I´m not Bush`s biggest fan, but to blame him for this terrible situation just doesn`t sound good!
No one could predict such a thing, this exceeded probably their worst expectations!
He`s not coordinating the resque teams, and as you saw, the city was under water so you have to make new plans, because in America this is not the kind of thing you deal every year.
As for the people left behind (black people, poor people, white people) this is not only a Federal issue, it`s everyone`s issue. It shows that people in general doesn`t guive a fuck about each others- Is this Bush`s fault?
And by the way, black people in New Orleans should think why they were left behind too, i don`t like the pitty thing, racism victims speech (even though in America there`s a lot of racism). I think it`s about time black people start to live in comunity with white people, but in some cases they like to be left alone in their neighbourhoods, interacting with the white people just for the crime, like a revenge thing. Hate leads to hate!
And when you have people that have already raped and stolen and killed last week, perhaps you get an idea of why they are being marginalised!- Because if you`re telling me that of all those 100.000 thousand people left behind didn`t have a friend that could guive them a lift out of town, then i thing they should re-think their situiation in modern society.
I`m talking for me now, in my area here in Portugal there`s a lot of Black people and poor people (black and white), and if something like this happened we would save the ones we cared about, but one thing i tell you, we woulodn`t care less of some black comunities that live in neighbours and like to say with all authority "Our neighbour is so bad that not even cops can get in"- They have choosen their role in society and one day society will guive back to them the same thing they guive to others- It´s a Universal law!
This is a New Era coming, our mother earth is transmuting energies to achieve a new equilibrium point.
Now, Texas are guiving the New Orleans a place for them to stay for the next 3 months. Why didn`t they`ve done it a week ago?- Probably because they never thought that something of this scale could have happened.
And for the survivers, do you think that all of them wanted to leave in the first place?
Of course now everybody feels abandoned but a week ago the CNN news reported this guys goin to the stadium as the ones that didn`t have anywhere to go, and people that simply didn`t wanted to leave the town.
And one last think, when i see an American speack against war, i don`t know what to think, because Bush has guiven Americans what they wanted. After 9/11 the American people were consulted and the majority of them thought that Bush was taken too much time to react to the atacks. He had to do something, and it´s easier for us to talk after the events, and express our opinion, because now we can say that the war was a bad move. But before it happened someone has to make some dificult dicisions, and don`t forget that he won the second time for president after stating that the war on terrorism was to continue.
Now, Americans don`t like him?
-Guive me a breack!!!
Take care

*applause* It's about time everyone stopped blaming Bush, the man isn't responsible for natural disasters and absolutely everything that happens to his country..

Inu--delete this post just like the other ones you post and then realize its poop. This ranks high among the most ridiculous. There are many but all the same...this is ridiculous.

I refuse.
I have a right to talk about what I *believe*, not what I *think* is hard fact. It's more or less like an opinion.
Otherwise, BPP should've shut up about Queen and Paul Rodgers in the first place if that's the case.
It's everyone's right to have an opinion but when you ignore certain hard facts, it is no longer an opinion but a bucket full of shit.
