He is SOOOOOOOO generous and compassionate.

Think of that... he gave away his swag bag!

Man, what a generous and compassionate person.

And he did it publically too. So that nobody might doubt just how generous and compassionate he is. He should run for governor of California. Wow. What a generous and compassionate guy.

Did I mention how generous and compassionate he is?

Clooney is one of the worst actors I have ever seen...

>>"This refocuses people back to the long-term nature of hurricane recovery efforts," she said.<<

What a bunch of self-important garbage...as if everyone sets their watch to what George C. Looney does.

What a swell, self-sacrificing guy he is! Brave, too. (He told us so himself.)

It's the United Way. They'll keep the most expensive items for themselves and distribute the stuff they don't want.

I read that the Federal Tax on the celebrity bags would be as much as $30,000.00.

I think I would have donated it also. I don't think the would have been any products that would have interested me enough to pay $30,000.00 in taxes.

Isn't it very convenient:

The first year that the IRS starts talking about such things being taxable just happens to be the very same year that George C. Looney decides to get generous.

Amazing coincidence, no?

When they found out they had to declare the $100,000 worth of stuff on their tax returns they went into shock. Clooney just didn't want to pay the tax on it.

I gave away five really nice golf bags to charity...prizes from golf tournaments.

Where's my headline!!!!

Oh...they didn't cost me anything. Didn't cost Looney, either.

O.K., so this looks like a self-serving public gesture. But what are the rest of them doing with their bags? The bottom line is that he's getting money to hurricane relief. He deserves some credit.

I DO think clooneeee has become looneeee. Not because he gave his bag to United Way...good for him. However, I really do think he is rebelious to the point now that he has gone over the top and lost it. Seriously. He's got something going on inside.

I can't believe he didn't keep the pearl necklace. That would look lovely on him.
