17,000 people are feared dead after an earthquake hit India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. A 625 mile radius. A good portion of that including children. Obviously, your heart goes out to them. But it makes you think.. Bush offers any help they need.. but why aren't our problems at home taken care of first? What about all the layoffs in LA? The damage? Poverty? Loss of life and cities? Both are natural disasters so you ask yourself.. is he treating one as more important to look better to the rest of the world? Or is our stuff just old news?
