| Cautions about tsunami donations. |
| 2005-01-03 |
| Boortz has some good advice about tsunami donations. Be certain who you are giving to! Scroll down and check out the photo with the guy wearing a Binnie shirt behind the stretcher Americans are stepping forward as never before in the wake of the tsunami disaster in Asia.  More money will be donated by private American citizens to the relief effort than will be spent by our government. More on that in a moment ... but let's look at the United Nations for a moment. Kofi working hard to keep the UN at the center of things. When President Bush announced the formation of a coalition to spearhead relief efforts for the tsunami victims Kofi was more than a little upset. He accused Bush of trying to undermine the UN. Kofi sees this tragedy as a way to bolster and enhance the world wide image of the UN, especially after it tucked-tail and ran from Iraq, and also from the Oil-for-Food scandal. What better way to enhance that image then to have all the disaster aid for the tsunami-affected areas channeled through UN agencies. |
