Please read this, Ms. McCormick. These conservative pundits have a long history of attacking do-gooders who feed spongers: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/580838/posts
Oh, please. These are multi-millionaires. It's like me giving a penny to charity and work A COUPLE HOURS at a charity function and then have the press broadcast their "good works" to the public which they made sure they would be headline news. It's a publicity stunt, and I'm sure that if I gave the same percentage of my wages to charity as they do, and work a couple hours as a publicity stunt so that my name hit the headlines, I would be branded a "slime ball". Well, if your rich and famous, you're not a slimeball, you're kind, generous, charitable, and a humanitarian. It's a matter of who and how famous you are that makes the difference.
