Rush Limbaugh is the chief cheerleader of the Republican Right in the USA. Think Fox News, but on talkback and more angry. Here is a link to a story about his comments on why Americans should not donate to appeals for Haiti.
“This [the earthquake] will play right into Obama’s hands,” said Limbaugh. “He’s humanitarian, compassionate. They’ll use this to burnish their, shall we say, credibility with the black community – both light-skinned and dark-skinned black community in this country. This is made to order for them.” Limbaugh also warned Americans against donating money. “Besides, we’ve already donated to Haiti. It’s called the US income tax,” he said.
Absolutely disgusting.
A reminder of Trevor’s earlier post that includes links to where you can donate.
