Where were they left over from New Orleans ? Where they never even used them for our own Citizens in tragedy. Maybe we should set a few up in every local park in the USA for the people who are losing there homes. God bless the Haitian people and hope they over come this tragedy .. but dont you think we should take care of our own first.

Normally, I am a STRONG advocate for spending our hard earned money in our own borders first. But for SOME reason, our govt has decided to just get rid of those trailers. There are a lot of people even after Katrina that could use them, but noooo Obama just wants to get rid of them and stop paying the storage rent. I was just thinking of filling each with tents and supplies that we are sending anyway to make the dollars we are already spending stretch as far as possible.
Hell, Obama was sure quick to COMMIT $100,000,000.00 (ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS) that we sure don't have to the relief effort! And what did CHINA offer? 2 friggen million. Give me a break.
