Its pittiful and heart aching. International aid are waiting @ gulf. If Myanmar Government permitted the VISAs it won't happen like this. I was optimistic about helping my country as much as I can devote. I was on stand by 24 hours @ my camp... Stupid government.

These wires are out of line and do not concern the Burmese problems. International presence and intervention in Burma through NGO's, political or military, are serious, important issues and have nothing to do with your personal or religious minging. MEDIATOR please interveen.

Too late! Americans already pay over FIFTY PERCENT of their incomes in regular taxes, income taxes to a private corporation (the "Federal" Reserve), HIDDEN taxes and FEES! Get on the ball, Skippy, you've got some serious gouging to come up with! Good luck to you and your fascist pals. Heil!

Actually, I was thinking about running under the labour/socialist ticket. Id tell everyone how much I was going to do, and then Id take the money for myself and my cronies and laugh while you wring your hands at 40% income tax.

YOU are OUR American!! Great speach! There certainly will be a place for you on the McCain cabinet. We hope that you have enlightened your friends about the huge profits that can be made through human disasters under fascism. WE want to help the people of Myanmar too! It's time to ATTACK! (Don't tell anyone that they have fossil fuels! Not yet.) Anyway, keep up the hatered & greed, you're our sort of people! With Love, Carl Rove

The HORRIFIC lack of response by the Myanmar junta is an example of their lack of humanitarian sympathy, they are BASTARDS and should be ERADICATED ! ONCE and FOR ALL !NO people should be treated as horribly as the Burmese people - !!!!!

I wish that we had 7 up fountains and gumdrop mountains. Hookers and blow for every joe.It aint gonna happen, and youre dumb ass isnt going to change the world. Save your money to pay for a double quarter pounder with cheese. It'll be alot more satisfying than feeding some monkeys living in a hut somewhere.

FUCK Myanmar!First they get hit by this natural disaster and complain and whine about not getting any help... THEN the US tries to help them only to get turned away... FUCKING IDIOTS! Death toll over 100 grand?? I think not... thats only to get "attention" to the story and to get free aid. I wouldn't be suprised if only 87 people died...
