Scarborough Bashing UN for calling Bush "stingy" in Tsunami aid
Can you believe these guys? 60,000 dead and they spend the 1st 15 minutes making excuses saying "the U.S. donates more money every year than any other nation" and bashing the UN. Some balls considering they just cut $100 million in aid last week! One of the agencies that was cut is the Catholic Relief Center who happens to be one of the relief agencies. 280 billion in Iraq in over the table money, upwards of a trillion under the table, and the Pentagon "lost" 3 trillion in taxpayer money 2 years ago. Unbelievable.

1. I refuse to watch Scarbrough.
He never makes any sense..common sense. He's just a far right wing shill.

2. Scarborough quote
"The Democratic Party is no longer a national party" "Peter Beinart wrote the most important article of the year for the Democratic Party" This guy belongs on Fox.

3. Hannity's guest host was doing the same thing on the radio tonight.
They've clearly gotten their marching orders from the White House.

4. Yes, the guy sitting in for Rush was going on about this too
We are the most generous civilization that has ever existed. Which sounds pretty good, except, of course, for the fact that it's not true.

5. Apparently, the remark hit close to home. Thus, their reaction
to it. Besides, it's not the dollar amount that matters, but the percentage of each nation's GDP. Somehow, they keep wanting to connect it to the oil for food thing which had nothing to do with the misuse of American money.

I heard some guy saying the "liberals" were trying to politicize the tragedy. It's a typical right-wing tactic - accuse the other side of what you are doing.
