I'll give him that much.....

The reason I compare the two is that after listening/watching one or the other for more than 10 minutes I get measurably depressed........say what you will about Limbaugh but depressing is one thing his show is not.

Hillary Clinton's campaign is $20 million in the red and rumor has it Obama has offered to help her out.

Meanwhile George Bush pledged $500K for the quake victims of China

Is that:

George Bush concerned citizen pledging 1/2 Million of his own money

or

George Bush President of the United States offering 1/2 Million on behalf of our country?

That's what I was wondering

Uh oh. Someone finally came up with the only way to give McCain a chance in November. But will he listen?

I don't know....are you listening today? I'm kind of depressed.

$500,000 was the initial pledge on Tuesday prior to knowing any real information about the extent of the damage and the need and whether China was even willing to accept it (they, like the U.S., haven't historically been keen on taking foreign aid after disasters).

As much as Bush sucks, during his administration, the U.S. hasn't been stingy with relief aid and money following natural disasters. I'm sure that if more money is needed (China, after all, does have a several metric ****loads of cash on hand), it will be forthcoming.
