Given the group of subanimals who're running this thing, it has to degenerate into a nationally televised Wellstone memorial cubed. It may do President Bush more good than anything any of us could do.

Good to see Morgan Freeman. He's from the Greenwood/Charleston area of MS (same as I) and he managed to get through his bit [so far] without showing his leftist leanings. Probably one of the few celebs I'd really like to meet one day...

Hmmm...think I'll stick with watching "America's Ugliest Bathroom".

Instead of bothering with these twits I donated several hundred dollars worth of food and clothing that are now on their way to a large church-run shelter serving a devastated Mississippi community. At least I know every bit of the contribution will be put to direct use.

I think she did a bunch of the background work. She's from Nawlins or has family there or something.

Well, if that's the case, then good for her. If the producers just stuck her out there, then they are fools.

Refusing to watch. I will send any further hurricane relief donations to charities who are NOT participating in this show.

I have heard nothing but good about the Salvation Army. After I donated my whole saving to the United Way after 9-11 and they decided to "divert it to other causes" I have been VERY picky about who I donate to.

Please someone tell me if any one of these "celebrities" says anything even remotely anti Bush. I will call that number on the screen and tell whoever I speak with that I was going to contribute but now I am not. So there.

Anybody do anything stupid yet?

It is so hard to watch these things I just can't stand it. I know all these people are communist liberal scum.

They all suck. I'm not givin' a plug nickel.

I stuck it in Breaking, knowing the mods would remove it if they deemed inappropriate, but also knowing it would get more replies, and possibly prevent dupes.

Didn't see it in chat, either. :(

"Note to MORON Leftists. Do NOT put political activists on stage when you are trying to raise money. Eveytime they shoot off their mouth 64 million Bush voters snap their checkbooks shut and say "SCREW YOU LOSERS"."

Exactly! While all the lefties are preening and patting each other on the back they will be alienating millions. I know I won't even watch this thing, though I'm still giving the same amounts I would give anyway (through other groups) I sure won't do it via these bozos......

Oh there's no way I'm donating to it. No one here should.

It's just another exercise in "pay attention to me" from the gifted and talented folks who pretend for a living.

That is not Lil' Kim or Beyonce. That is Mary J. Blige. I can't imagine how the three could get confused. LOL
