Sean penn just knows that he won't be able to run his mouth about the Prez later if he didn't do something himself
Of course, if he really *is* pitching in (like Bill Frist, for example, who is doing his job as a medic and working triage down there without a press conference), I don't really care about his politics.
Anyone seen John Travolta and his private 707 lately? He could be using that thing to evacuate 100 or so people at a shot.
