HAITI:Bush Wipes Hand on Clinton

I'm not sure if George Bush is a germaphobe or he just doesn't like the Hiaitian people. But in this video released yesterday, Bush was caught on camera shaking the hand of a Hiatian man and only a few second later wiping it on Bill Clinton's shoulder.

Clinton's HOPE for Haiti

Oprah.com is featuring President Bill Clinton's first hand account of his vist to Haiti this week. He is U.S Special Envoy to Haiti and has had Haiti on his mind for almost 40 years.

Clinton:"When I returned to Haiti earlier this week to deliver medical supplies, food and water, I could barely recognize the city of Port-au-Prince, a city I have visited and cherished for more than 35 years: buildings and homes leveled; people in the streets, hungry, homeless and hurt; emergency vehicles and workers rushing through the streets to bring aid to the dying; the presidential palace in ruins."

Obama Taps Ex-Presidents for Haiti

President Obama today tapped former Presidents Clinton and Bush to assist in the Haitian relief efforts after this week’s horrific earthquake.

The objective is to help the Caribbean island recover, rebuild and move towards a better future. This fundraising is the same that Clinton and Bush Sr. did for the Tsunami in 2005.

Clinton, who is the US Special Envoy to Haiti has been helping the island through his Clinton Foundation and through out his presidency. Haiti is especially close to the former President and wife Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, spending a delayed honeymoon there and visiting every chance they get for the past 20 years.
President Obama hopes that Clinton and Bush can gather the American people in helping with the relief. Meanwhile, Secretary Clinton is set to arrive in Haiti today, accompanied by USAID chief Rajiv Shah. Clinton will be the first highest U.S dignitary to witness the destruction first hand. Her hopes are to speed up the recovery. Shah stated that the US has mobilized $48Million worth of food assistance, enough to feed about 2 million people for the next six months.

Former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush have set up a Web site - http://www.clintonbushhaitifund.org - to begin collecting donations.
