Help me out anyone out there. If the Hollywood elite can raise in 2 hours 6 million dollars for the democrats, why can't they raise 6 million dollars for the elderly who are still waiting for their drugs (some are even choosing between eating food or taking meds) or why don't they raise 6 million dollars for the employees of Enron, Worldquiest, Global Crossing (get the point) and help reimburse their 401K plans? It seems to me in my very simple mind that if the ex president and the hollywood elite can raise so much money why not share it with the poor. After all how much money does one need when they die?

Why is everyone waiting for the government to tax the hard working American to pay for these social programs? I see it as very simple--donate the hollywood elite fundraiser monies as tax free money to the medicare program for drugs for the elderly. Surely Babs would be willing to come out of retirement for this, don't you think.

Any ideas out there? Hollywood can raise that money in no time without denting their bank accounts.

Ask BLABS for the necklace she wore lastnight..as a charity donation..something tells me that would feed the world...but the Republican party is the "RICH" party...hopefully the media will call them on all this excess...which is discusting..the bleeding hearts need to be exposed for the farces they are~~~~
