I don't know about anyone else, but I feel like there is something fishy going on in Haiti. Is it all a political scam?
From the media hype that went about when the Haiti Earthquake first broke out, how much of that promised money made its way to Haiti? Not only half. The countries that promised to send money bailed, and unfortunately, the United States must wear that cap of shame as well.
But today, we see renewed government activity in Haiti. Sara Palin making her way for a humanitarian mission to Haiti. Yet she couldn't have picked a more chaotic time.
She stepped in, attempting to show her concern for the Haiti children and the situation, but everything she does has such a minute affect - a drop in an ocean of water. Not only is the cholera break out [which killed 2,000 people and affected 90,000 more] but also the government elections are extremely tainted. The riots and political turmoil, exacerbated with the economic and social disorder, makes political order very difficult.
And among all this Sara Palin tries to create a humanitarian facade. Maybe she is trying to help these people, but whatever she does is not having a profound affect. And that is not Sara Palin's fault. Nothing she individually does can dramatically change Haiti's situation. Nothing any one person does will make a difference. Haiti is the perfect example where one person CANNOT make a difference. It is only in the masses, we need the get the entire government, everyone, riled up for Haiti. And right now, where the media hype has died, nothing will get done. The people in Haiti will suffer unknown, unwatched, uncared for from the rest of the world.
