I'm curious about this 12.12.12 relief concert. Why do they need financial support from private citizens? New York and New Jersey voted for a candidate that promised big government is the solution to their problems. Has the government not provided for all their needs after the hurricane destruction?
Sorry you feel that way.
I hope you and your neighbors are never in a similar situation.
Go in peace.
Just when we all thought Katrina “victims” set the all time record for scamming and mooching, here comes scam capitol of the world, Neuvo York and Nuevo Jersey with a Universe size tin cup.
And if I and my neighbours find ourselves in a catastrophic situation, we won’t allow ourselves to be used by self-serving millionaire politicians of any political party, nor will we praise them or vote for them in exchange for empty promises! Nor will you see us on your television screen, you can bet.
Peace to you.

My condolences.......
I explicitly wrote that it is not bitterness from the election that has brought me to my conclusions, I am simply holding them to the standards that they voted for. This is exactly what your “cousin” did in Atlas Shrugged.
I gave DIRECTLY to persons I knew who were affected in NYC. And there are friends of theirs holding fundraising concerts in other cities but none of them are getting national exposure.
The music world is much bigger than this liberal circle jerk going on at MSG at last night.
“See me, feel me” (complete with photo op shots of Ubama hugging hurricane victims, he FEELS your pain unlike that “coke headed frat boy” G.W.Bush, never mind that Ubama used cocaine at the Ivy League schools himself).
Well considering he's appealing to the PRIVATE sector to bail the city out (no rainy day fund?).
"Where is your Fema now, lib boy?"
Where is this unity and non-partisanship of which he speaks as President Nobama drives this nation over the cliff so he can raise taxes on EVERYBODY, cut the military budget, and blame the Republican Party for doing so (having poo pooed his own plan to "raise trillions" by just ending tax deductions)?
Agree! Flipping channels and I came across the concert just before The Who being introduced. They rocked!!! Excellent. Watched history being made as likely this was one of their few remaining performances. Missed the Stones - would’ve liked to see those guys.
The audience members around the “hosts” were hammered and acted rediculous. Didn’t exactly make me want to open my checkbook.
Come on, when is the government anything more than the problem?!
As we give more and more duties to the government we become less safe!
Remember Reagan’s words; “the government isn’t the solution, it’s the problem!”
Hey, to each his own. I’m glad others enjoyed it. It’s just remarkable to me how unremarkable and uninteresting I found it. Didn’t feel I missed out on anything in the least.
