New York Times Thoughts

Tuesday, February 9, 2010--- I am happy for the Unkraine for slowly their ability to be democratic unlike the Kremlin in Russia that has had power consolidation since the irse of Vladimir V. Putin. The winner was Viktor F. Yanukovich who defeated Yulia V. Tymoshenko by three percentage points. I hope these three percentage points will not be disputed for years to come much like the Supreme Court election of former President Bush. Could there be any more problems with relief efforts to Haiti? I thought humanitarian relief could be more effective when it was from a powerful country like the US and many other states helping in the relief efforts. Why do corporations need to make a profit off of relief efforts? Why do people need to argue over money when we have enough to survive and the Haitian people have nothing and had nothing before the war. Are we greedy pigs or what? I heard one person say we should make the Haitian government accountable for all the money we give them because we are in a recession. ABSURD! President Obama will meet with the Republicans and I can guess what happens next... the salvation of the free world and free health care for all those in need (NOTHING). Jeese, are governments slow to act or what? I just did a paper on German unification and I still do not know how that happened so quickly while domestic issues linger for years and years and years...
