To All,
I just returned from Haiti with Hebler. We flew in at 3 AM Sunday to
the scene of such incredible destruction on one side, and enormous
ineptitude and criminal neglect on the other.
Port o Prince is in ruins. The rest of the country is fairly intact.
Our team was a rescue team and we carried special equipment that
locates people buried under the rubble. There are easily 200,000 dead,
the city smells like a charnel house. The bloody UN was there for 5
years doing apparently nothing but wasting US Taxpayers money. The ones
I ran into were either incompetents or outright anti American. Most are
French or french speakers, worthless every damn one of them. While 1800
rescuers were ready willing and able to leave the airport and go do our
jobs, the UN and USAID ( another organization full of little OBamites
and communists that openly speak against Americana ) These two
organizations exemplified their parochialism by:
USAID, when in control of all inbound flights, had food and water
flights stacked up all the way to Miami , yet allowed Geraldo Rivera,
Anderson Cooper and a host of other left wing news puppies to land.
Pulled all the security off the rescue teams so that Bill Clinton and
his wife could have the grand tour, whilst we sat unable to get to
people trapped in the rubble.
Stacked enough food and water for the relief over at the side of the
airfield then put a guard on it while we dehydrated and wouldn't
release a drop of it to the rescuers.
No shower facilities to decontaminate after digging or moving corpses
all day, except for the FEMA teams who brought their own shower and
decon equipment, as well as air conditioned tents.
No latrine facilities, less digging a hole if you set up a shitter
everyone was trying to use it.
I watched a 25 year old Obamite with the USAID shrieking hysterically,
berate a full bird colonel in the air force, because he countermanded
her orders, whilst trying to unscrew the air pattern. " You don't know
what your president wants! The military isn't in charge here we are!"
If any of you are thinking of giving money to the Haitian relief, or
to the UN don't waste your money. It will only go to further the goals
of the French and the Liberal left.
If we are a fair and even society, why is it that only white couples
are adopting Haitian orphans. Where the hell is that vocal minority
that is always screaming about the injustice of American society.
Bad place, bad situation, but a perfect look at the new world order in
action. New Orleans magnified a thousand times. Haiti doesn't need
democracy, what Haiti needs is Papa Doc. That's not just my opinion ,
that is what virtually every Haitian we talked with said. "the French
run, the UN treat us the same as when we were a colony", at least Papa
Doc ran the country.
Oh, and as a last slap in the face the last four of us had to take US
AIRWAY's home from Phoenix . They slapped me with a 590 dollar baggage
charge for the four of us. The girl at the counter was almost in tears
because she couldn't give us a discount or she would lose her job..
Pass that on to the flying public.

GRRR, THE FRENCH!
Why would the UN send French speakers to a country whose national language is-- what's that? It's what?!
Well, we'd better just let them all die, then!

How do these people sleep at night?

Sickening. I second the "how do they sleep at night?" comment.
Would it be too much to ask for them to at least spell Port Au Prince correctly, or did they mean to spell it like it's a port-o-potty?
I sincerely hope this wasn't written by any representative in our military because if it is it speaks to a gross lack of education.
As to the French... Haiti is a HUGE tourist destination, and you will find very few people who do not speak English. Americans seem to be rather unique in how we only tend to speak one language.
I'm also curious as to why U.S. military on an official mission was allowed to take a commercial flight out (apparently on a whim). I've never heard of our military not allowing our soldiers to use our planes.
I call bullshit. My guess is that this wasn't written by a member of the U.S. military and was instead written by a wingnut posing as one (particularly considering military rules regarding their ability to question/critique the president). I hope I'm right, but you never know.
Well, let's see: the earthquake occurred on Jan 12, so it took almost 3 weeks for some rightwing Think-Tank to come out with this nasty, evil screed. I've been waiting for it. Color me completely unsurprised at the scum-sucking bottom-dwelling mendacity and venality of it. Only partly surprised that it's not worse & didn't get out sooner.
"New Orleans magnified a thousand times." Ya think?? Maybe, maybe not. I've already had several Republic friends and family members comment to me about the shitty awful crappy stupid job that BHO & this admin is doing in comparison to how W handled Katrina. I know for a fact that this is the message being pumped out by GlennRushBilloSean & co: that in comparison to how W handled Katrina, BHO is a big FAIL at handling Haiti.
Nevermind that Haiti isn't in our country. Nevermind that Republics like W are largely responsible for coups in Haiti resulting in the grinding poverty there. Nevermind that the airport and the port were nearly demolished, so that there was only so much that could be done quickly. The rightwing noise machine hesitated not one nanosecond to excoriate BHO in how he's handled this in comparison to how W handled Katrina. Again: color me unsurprised, and equally unsurprised that Tea Partiers rush to join the fray of dogs snarling about the horrid job that BHO is doing. Stupid. Worthless.
Notice also the red meat thrown out to nutty Republics: the UN's a disaster; every single American who's working there is some kind of Obamabot commiepinko who's dissing the military to their very faces. Everyone speaks FRENCH (seriously: that's a classic), and HOW DARE THEY DO THAT??111!!!!
And so on.
This piece of insane, racist, nasty drivel is what I have been anticipating for 3 whole weeks. C'mon ya racist jerkwads: what took ya sooooo long??? Falling down on the job???? Not feeling racist enough???
Can there be any question in anyone's mind about the venality of these people? Making political "hay" off of a disaster like this? What creeps.
And yes: as if some alleged military person could just take off from Haiti when they've been deployed there because they are "disgusted" or whatever, and then they act out their smug, self-righteous, self-absorbed, victimizing anger at the airlines because they allegedly charged them for their baggage.
Gad. What. a. bunch. of. nasty. LIES. UGH!!!
You ask: how can the sleep? They sleep very, very well; like babies, in fact. When someone is this sociopathically inclined, they have no shame or guilt whatsoever. They are racists; this is "normal" behaviour for them and quite justified in their nasty little minds. UGH!!!!!!!
I figured we were due for a letter like this. A similar one made the rounds after the Tsunami a few years ago, with some supposed military officer bitching about how much the people they were trying to help hated America and how useless all the civilian responders were.
Naturally it was BS, and another Naval officer was good enough to write a letter in response debunking the whole thing.
The end of the letter is really strange. Why is this person flying commercial airlines? Why through Phoenix? Why is he unaware of the new baggage fees which have been in place for over a year now? And of course, what does any of this have to do with Haiti?
Anyone who lauds Papa Doc Duvalier is full of shit. FULL. OF. SHIT.
Read up on Haiti, the Duvalier family, and the role that the US gov't has played there. It's instructive.
Disgusting, not surprising, a load of crap. These people are wastes of space. Agree that I also figured something as nasty as this was on it's way. Stupid & ignorant as ever.
I do have to give a shout out to the insane anger that everyone in Haiti has the audacity and temerity to speak French! What a bunch of ignorant nasty dickheads.
On a mostly seperate note, I love this section:
If we are a fair and even society, why is it that only white couples
are adopting Haitian orphans. Where the hell is that vocal minority
that is always screaming about the injustice of American society.
Of course this probably isn't true about only white couples making adoptions, but if it is you have to be blind to miss the obvious answer, which is that we DON'T live in an equal society.
Centuries of overt and institutional racism have made it so that there is a surplus of resources among "white couples", meaning they are in a far better position to take in orphans after a disaster like this. Try putting 2 and 2 together, genius!
Disgusting rant designed to make greedy racists feel better for not making a donation to the cause...if they had any conscience to begin with, that is....
Wow. That is just pure, concentrated evil, right there.
I think many wingnuts will take comfort in this
bullshit; now they have an excuse to not send any aid
and they don't have to feel guilty anymore.
Win-win!
So this liar says he went to Haiti and saw 200,000 dead people & it smelled like a charnel house. And then people insulted HIM by speaking teh dreaded French, sacre bleu! And everyone there trying to help out was either an incompetent UN-type or an Obama commie? And these incompetent pinkos yelled at a general?
And WHAT did this person actually DO, himself, while he was there in the charnel house that is Haiti? Help bury the dead? Help dig out people from the rubble? Help people get food & water? Help people find shelter? Help people get some medical help?
Oh wait, this fictional asshole did nothing except fly away in a huff, and we're all supposed to feel sorry for HIM because he got charged baggage fees.
WOW. This one really jumps the shark, doesn't it?
And if this guy is so keen to see Papa Doc back in power (or some variation) then I would just love to see him meet up with the Tonton Macoute in a dark alley in Phoenix. Then he can write all he wants about the joys of living under Papa Doc's regime.
I hope I'm never in a natural disaster, but if I am, I really hope that I never have a cold-hearted rightwinger like this come along pretending to help me.
Wow. What a complete moron. Another website lists the author of this crap-fest as Nic Brockhausen. I am so glad I don't have to sit across the Thanksgiving table every year listening to this supreme A-hole rant. Does he really presume to know how Haiti normally runs by spending a few days in the capitol after a huge national disaster has leveled the city? He never said if he actually helped anyone in Haiti at all. I hope there's not a real hateful idiot out there named Nic Brockhausen who works in a rescue unit. But if there is, I hope someone will punch him in the nose for this b.s.
This is sickening. Kinda like those memes we read about the fat black people who were ungrateful and rioting over food in Texas after NOLA. Ah well. All I will say is that for supposed members of the military (and officers to boot!), these guys spend a hell of a lot of time and whining.
Ok, let's see what we have here.
1) Cultural insensitivity insofar as none of them can spell the name of Port Au Prince right
2) Less concern with the suffering of the people than the fact that U.S. taxpayer money was wasted in trying to improve the lot of the average Haitian
3) Jabs at USAID for being communist and the UN for being French (WTF?)
4) Blaming the Media and Bill Clinton
5) Blaming USAID again (which apparently has the military power to place guards on top of food and water and then refuse to release it to the military)
6) Bitching about being unable to shower (dude, you're in the military...suck it the fuck up. None of the Haitians are getting showers either)
7) Obviously upset that a civilian refused to show suitable deference to the military
8) Out and out racism regarding white americans and adoptions
9) Conspiracy theories (ie. the New World Order)
10) No apparent respect for democracy of any kind (not a surprise really, given decades worth of conservative foreign policy)
11) Blissful lack of awareness of fact that Haiti WAS a U.S. colony for a number of years
12) Had to fly home with the stinking civilians and had to pay baggage fee
13) True, red-blooded patriotic American in tears because she couldn't help the soljurs.
What is the matter with these people? Seriously, what is their problem?
Unbelievable... even for conservatards. Just disgusting.
As one comment said: sent out to justify why conservatives shouldn't have to feel any twinge of guilt over not "sharing" their filthy lucre with the brown folks of Haiti, who clearly deserved this fate and should be left to ROT. Creeps. Sickening.
Hey conservatives -- does this guy
speak for you? If not, let's hear
some ringing denunciations from
your side.
Don't hold your breath, prior Anon. Ringing denunciations from wingers over THIS? don't think so.
I've heard commentaries from Rush Limbaugh's show where wingers are calling in shrieking about how they wouldn't give those blankity-blank-blank-blanks their "hard earned cash."
I think most on the right will completely agree with this and more.
Total BS. My first clue was the use of the word "whilst." Twice. Seriously, what member of the US military would use that word? That is not commonly used in American English.
Yes, probably total b.s., Thomas, but why send it out? To rile up hatred. Disgusting.
