We cant, couldn't, or flat out wouldn't...
Who give's a crap about political points being made. The US should be accepting help from anyone who is willing to give it. Especially when "we" are always the first in line to help other countries when they need it (and even when they don't). It's a damn shame that a government that is so well prepared to take care of the affairs in other countries, can't even take care of their own affairs. Like my grandmother used to say..."We need to sweep around our own front door"...
This entire situation is a mess on every level and unfortunately it's the poor who are paying the price of not having government leaders (on the local, state, and federal level) who were fully prepared to protect and serve them.
