Default OT Aid to Haiti

Gosh, the Germans are increasing their aid to Haiti. "Germany would
provide 7.5 million euros (10.7 million dollars) in relief, up from
1.5 million euros earlier this week." http://tinyurl.com/yaujdar

Wow. You don't suppose they're doing that because the Americans are
donating more just by texting than their whole country is giving, do
you?

America is a pretty good country. Shame the liberals are always
putting it down.

million to Haitian earthquake relief through text messages in what is
being hailed as an unprecedented mobile response to a natural
disaster.
