This is an outrageous attempt by Bush to gain political clout. There is no question that Obama is going to support Darfur refugees. President Bush realizes that he must do something now or else he will look like a complete diabolical monster when Obama does. For five years we failed to do anything for Darfur. Now, with just 15 days left in the Bush presidency we actually air lift equipment that has been sitting around in Rwanda. I don't think any one is ever going to give Bush credit for this. I can't believe that he could be so low… [Read Full Text]

This is/was long overdue. How long must Darfur suffer under the ignorant regime of Omar Bashir. By the time Obama is done with fixing the economy, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc, Darfurians would have been wiped out. Good for Bush: better late than never at all. Darfurians will take it no matter what the detractors feel about it.
