The Thoughtful Homemaker

One thing I am sooooo sick of is that whenever there is a disaster of some sort and Pat Robertson, Rush, or somebody generally hated by the media shares their opinion, the media takes that person’s opinion and SHOCK it becomes news. With Rush however, it is usually taken out of context and Pat Robertson is an old man who has his opinions, so what? It is not like he isn’t doing what he can to help people in Haiti. He is sending aid.

Rush never said to not donate to Haiti. He said to donate to relief organizations and that these NGOs do a much better job than government aid. Where is he wrong?

People who are progressive say things to get on my nerves, but I just ignore them. But, we can’t let Rush or Pat say anything! It is easier to say “see this is why Conservatives are scary, they have no compassion” even though that is not true. Government running things is the opposite of compassion. FEMA screwed up Katrina. That is a government problem. Do you think Obama would have handled Katrina better? I certainly don’t think so. It would have interrupted date night with Michelle!

Ok, now to my point. Haitians have had a crappy government for years. Now is the chance for a revolution! They should attack the president and his cronies and a better government take over. This is their chance. I hope they take it or to be honest I don’t think their country will ever recover.
