If you've read this forum, you know I am very supportive of the public option and environmental issues. So what's your point?

Because we have unemployment here, we shouldn't donate there? It does make me sick when Mr. one hundred million dollar man - the Steelers quarterback, who shall remain nameless - gives $10,000 to some charity and it is on the news. That is like me giving 5 cents, it is not newsworthy. That does not stop me from caring and giving.

Did it ever occur to you that some people don't announce that they give? When giving alms, you aren't supposed to let the right hand know what the left hand is doing - remember? ..or should they have cleared it with you first?
