And it is no surprise the right wing media in the US has gone into anti-UN, anti-internationalist echo chamber overdrive, screaming about how the world is now blaming the US for the Asian tragedy, because a UN official said the initial relief package offered by the US, $15 million, was a reflection of the wealthy nations' stingy response to these sorts of disasters.

So it is no coincidence that we see the right wingers here in Mudcat echoing what they just heard on the Fox and MSNBC echo chambers' fashionably fascist talk shows. Sadly predictable, actually.
