Bush, Clinton Appeal to Americans to Donate

- BBC

President George W Bush and two of his predecessors, Bill Clinton and George Bush Senior, have called on Americans to aid the Asian tsunami's victims.

The three men appeared together in the Roosevelt Room at the White House to issue a joint appeal to private citizens and businesses.


As much grief as I've given President Clinton over not capturing Osama Bin Laden despite numerous times to either kill him or acquire him and his overall lax policy on terrorism, I'll cut him some slack here and praise him for his acceptance to this position. Both President Bush 41 and President Clinton excel in foreign policy and foreign relations which is why these two appointments by President Bush 43 should do a mountain of good in giving aid to those in need.

The appeals by both Bush 41 and Clinton are geared more towards businesses and wealthy individuals to donate to the Red Cross, which in turn is directly aiding tsunami victims.

I must caution my readers there are fake charities already in place and they have already accepted "donations." The American Red Cross of course is reputable and I would strongly urge my readers to only donate to organizations that have a history of humanitarian aid.

Captain's Quarters is putting together a blogger coallition of sorts to donate money directly to the victims as well. Ed Morrisey has marked January 12 as World Relief Day and asks for donations to be given on and prior to January 12 to World Vision.

1 Will Slick donated his used underwear? Will Hillary send unsold copies of "It takes a Village." Anyone willing to guess how much these clowns donate to charity yearly out of the millions they rake in? Just two more caring Lefties.

2 Some dude was a guest on the Spin Factor last night. He wrote a book about Al Qaeda cells in the US. He said he has evidence to support the fact that Clinton knew that funds were going out of the US to help Osama and his cause and did nothing about it. Something about money from Chicago? Did anyone watch the show? I, too, was gonna give Clinton the benefit of the doubt, being that he is heading up the support for the tsunami victims, until I saw this last night. :-(

5 Attn:My Dearest TUTU & KAFU CHAMBER Solicitors & Advocates 74 Kofi Anan Street - Teshie-Nungua, Accra-Ghana ; office:Tel/Fax: +2 3 3 (0) 2 4 3 1 3 1 9 8 E-mail:kafuu@mail.com ------------------------------------------------ It impresses me a lot to write you this letter, Mr. Samuel A. Kafu is my name, the personal Attorney to Late Mr. William K. Asai president of Diamond SafariÂ’s Company Ltd., Accra-Ghana who is a national of your country. On the 25th of July 2000, my client was involved in a major catastrophe that took place in Paris (Killing 113 Passengers) Unfortunately, Air France supersonic airliner of the Concorde fleet caught fire upon take-off in Paris and crashed minutes later killing my client, since then I have made several enquiries to locate any of my client extended relatives and this has also proved unsuccessful. After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his relatives over the Elementary Family Search on the Internet before coming in contact with yours, which I believe, is not a mistake to find you? I contacted you to assist in repatriating the money left behind by my deceased client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by the International Commercial Bank where these huge deposits were lodged. Consequently the bank has issued me a notice to provide the next of kin or have the deposits confiscated within a short time. Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over four four years now, I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased since you share the same name in common so that the proceeds of this deposits valued at $152 Million United States Dollars can be claimed to you for both of us to share the money. I have all necessary legal documentation that can be used to back up the claim. All I require is your honest and kind cooperation to enable us seeing this deal through. Please get in touch to enable us relate further. Stay fine and remain blessed. Yours Faithful,Mr. Samuel A. Kafu (Esq.)
