I want Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Mike Savage to see that, of course they won't in the world of blogiranje I am not that high up on the food chain. I still wish they'd shut up about how the U.S. helps everyone and we don't get shit back.
That is an arrogant view and not true. The whole world is a two way street. We all have to help each other.
The U.S. has helped a lot of other countries and my experience is that when it's really been help and really had the right intention, then that help IS appreciated.
Now we are in trouble and others care, I for one am glad they do.
Even though I don't live in Louisiana, I feel as if the countries that want to help here care about me personally. It means a lot.
I do have relatives who used to live in Louisiana, and I've been there. I've been to in fact a LOT of the places that got hit.
