It may be political, sure but I still think it's cool that other countries did offer off help in our time of need.
I also think that perhaps (on a relative scale), we actually don't need the help simply cause we really do have lots of resources. I mean, just look at our pro sports and entertainment. Our pro athletes and entertainers have done a great job (in my opinion) of raising funds for the relief effort. And, big business too. I believe Best Buy and some others have joined in the effort. Our private sector has answered the call (in my opinion) in aiding ourselves and aren't finished yet I have a feeling.
So refusing the aid is ok, especially with a polite thank you. Many of those countries could use the money themselves or resources. I still think (political or not) that the gesture was nice.
Nothing wrong with that.
