Palin: Haiti needs 'military airlift' of supplies

By JONATHAN M. KATZ, Associated Press – 54 mins ago

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti – Sarah Palin urged Americans on Sunday not to forget Haiti as she wrapped up a weekend visit to an aid group's sites in this country vexed by a cholera epidemic, earthquake reconstruction and political crisis.

Accompanied by her husband, Todd; daughter Bristol, a Fox News crew and the Rev. Franklin Graham, who runs the aid group that hosted her, the former Alaska governor and vice presidential candidate arrived in Haiti during a respite from the riots and violence that have followed the Caribbean nation's dysfunctional Nov. 28 election.

"I do urge Americans not to forget Haiti," she said at a Sunday afternoon news conference.

Noting that severe problems afflicted Haiti even before last January's devastating quake, she said her fellow citizens should "get out of your comfort zone and volunteer to help."

"I know that there's been some discussion of U.S. aid perhaps being lifted from this area," she said. "Again — not to get political — but if some of the politicians would come here and see the conditions, perhaps they would see a need for, say, a military airlift to come bring supplies that are so needed here."

It was not clear what she was referring to, and a Palin spokeswoman declined to elaborate

1. Your title made me chuckle ... it earns a K & R

[no_hypocrisy]

2. Palin was quiet as death earlier this year when Haiti had the earthquake.

3. As if Palin really cared?

4. "-not to get political-"

Un-huh, sure. If there is one thing that is obvious about this stunt it's that it is political.

[Whoa_Nelly]

5. The AP photo-ops...grimacing for the "icky" look on her face

for the majority of the pics there.

And absolutely, she has a clearer understanding of Haiti now, especially from all those pics of her interacting with the general Haitian population...and those kiss the baby pics? Priceless...oh, make that non-existent :sarcasm:

6. I have one word for her:

Emmonak

not to mention having to clean her hands about a billion times after having to touch
Haitians ...... just another phony act like her great hunter of the north skit.

13. She probably bought jewelry and souvenirs too.

8. I'm surprised she knows where Haiti is

She can't see it from her house.

9. "...get out of our comfort zone"???

Since when has she ever been far away from her make up kit or not be ready for that next photo up no matter where it is? She has little interest in any disaster if the cameras are not rolling no more then she's interested in any job if she can't delegate the real work to someone else while still be able to maintain a staff to handle he wardrobe and makeup details.

[Raschel]

15. Comfort zone? Does she mean as in unemployment line?

[Angry Dragon]

10. And tell us sarah what you have done for them??

Anything??

[SoCalDem]

11. and what about those precious Palin babies?

Bristol danced for months..Sarah's never home.. just where are those kidlets?

[Ramulux]

12. Is Sarah Palin saying...

that the government should meddle in the lives of those Haitians? I thought they were doing awesome without a well funded and capable government over in Haiti? She cant be saying that the American government should actually use tax-payer dollars to give medicine to poor Haitian people?

[EFerrari]

14. LOL! Good one, Kadie!

16. They ALL take the "L" out of love Love of country love of democracy and love for each other are gone
