ok, here's the first paragraph of the article, are you going to go read the damn thing or should I post paragraph by paragraph?
WASHINGTON — In a turnabout, the United States is now on the receiving end of help from around the world as some two dozen countries offer post-hurricane assistance.
from a little further on in the piece:
"
"You know," he said, "we would love help, but we're going to take care of our own business as well, and there's no doubt in my mind we'll succeed. And there's no doubt in my mind, as I sit here talking to you, that New Orleans is going to rise up again as a great city.""
the "he" above would be Pres. Bush.
BTW, The Rice in the headline would be SecState, I doubt she'd come out with that if the big guy didn't ok it.
