America chips in, eventually

Could it be that Bush just didn't get what tsunami meant? Could he be so ignorant that he just couldn't fathom the destruction that occurred in South East Asia?

Initially contributing 35 million dollars to the countries devastated in this weeks tsunami the United States has upped its pledge to 350 million dollars.

The White House has also said that the 350 million could rise after an evaluation of the devastated areas by Colin Powell and a team of delegates.

I suppose we can now all thank Dictionary.com and Encarta for showing Bush what a tsunami really is, or maybe he just saw a picture like this one.

The top picture was taken on June 23rd 2004. The second on the 28th of December.
