... and send the money to Haiti.
Pelosi's flight to California this weekend could have fed 90,000 in Haiti.
What will Nancy do to help the truly poor people?
Will Edwards give up his $400 haircuts to feed 400 people for a day?

How big of a carbon foot print of your bottle ? Was it shipped from France ? HOW DARE YOU !!!!!!!! How about mailing your water to Mexico ? I hear they can use the fresh water. How about the Botox injections Nancy has ? ..If she cuts that in half and sends that money to Haiti for bullets would what make you happy ?

No, you giving up your water isn't going to help the people in Haiti. Nor is Edwards giving up his haircuts. Pelosi might if she flies coach.
You ability to drink $3 waters and $7 lattes didn't cause world poverty. For the most part, corrupt governments and other social factors did.
Finally, we've been throwing billions at the problem for decades, and it's not getting any better, indicating lack of dollars is not the problem.

Great point. (Oh by the way if you get really rich and famous you can drink the water that Ben Stiller has made.... BlinG H2O..they go for $90 a bottle!).
Living in America it's really hard to live if you continue to think like that becuase the cost of living is so high here and as humans we will always want luxury goods. I think like you also, however i did not give up much, if water is $3 and you like it then you should drink it. However there are ways you can help and do as much as you possibly can without having to change your life. Websites like www.children.org where it only cost $22 to help a child change his or her life. Sponser a child it's only $22 which is less than a fancy dinner, and if you can good money sponser 2 children. Things like that can help children and you will not, in my beliefe you should not feel bad about $3 water. As far as the politicians go....are you serious!? You should know as a human being that ALL POITICIANS are hypocrites!! They do everything for themselves not you and I or starving children around the world! All the politicians ever do is use us to get them into office by telling us lies that we ALL fall for. That is all.

When I waste food people tell me, "there are starving people in Africa". My only response to that is, "If I see one one the way to the trash I let them have it".
If you feel the need to give then give up the bottled water and send the money to Haiti. I don't think it will get to anyone that needs it just like in Darfur! You will just be helping the warlords nothing more.

What have Republicans done to help people less fortunate than themselves? ZILCH.
Besides, if Ann Coulter can spend thousands on Sun-In, and Mitt Romney can spend money on dog-carriers for the top of his car, why can't anyone who makes money spend as they please?
I laugh at you spending $3 on a bottle of water. though....but whatever floats yer boat, cupcake.

i wish you're no longer serious. yet, only in case... one million. it is not NOLA. 2. it is not even an US territory, and we don't run the coach. 3. the two circumstances are not comparable, no count how complicated human beings attempt. 4. It became cheesy and incorrect the 1st time, so do no longer droop now that it is the different guy in charge. there are a number of valid criticisms.

No these bleeding hearts will not alter their lifestyles to contribute to such causes but will seek to force others to do so. Warren Buffet claims he doesnt pay enough in taxes- If he wants to help he could send tens of thousands of kids to college each yr for decades to come without the government wasting his cash on junk.

Dude, this is the kind of attitude America is hated for. When we help, the Prez gets bashed, when we do nothing, the Prez gets bashed, and I'm not just talking about Bush.
Do what you think is right.
