Let us not forget that Mitt Romney donated 5000 dollars. After all, he put in a lot of effort to make sure everyone knew that.
That's funny considering the abysmal track record of dems on this. Bill Clinton donating his used underwear. Al Gore and Joe Biden donated less than I do and I am nowhere as wealthy as either. People like Romney and Sarah Palin were documented to be generous. Dick & Lynn Cheney made everyone look like a skinflint by comparison, but of course they never got any credit for it from the left. They called him 'darth vader' and piled story upon story about his shooting accident.
I believe the thread starter was trying to stir sheet up with the title of this thread. What is referred to as trolling. I didn't think folks who claimed they were independents would do such a thing. lol
Silly thread title, but it was probably a pot shot at Fox for their complaints about the concert helping Obama.

Why do I see heads exploding when the mainstream republicans realize libs were more generous than them? Is this "I am more generous than them" attitude so important to you that you get upset when someone else donates too?
A live televised concert to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy brought in nearly $23 million, the American Red Cross and NBCUniversal said Saturday.
The one-hour, commercial-free telecast organized by NBCUniversal, "Hurricane Sandy: Coming Together," included appearances by Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, Jimmy Fallon, Steven Tyler, Mary J. Blige, Tina Fey, Jon Stewart, Whoopi Goldberg, Danny DeVito and NBC News' Brian Williams. TODAY co-anchor Matt Lauer was host.
Did you mean libs were the only ones who were asked to donate money? Or did you mean only libs performed? Did they only ask libs to volunteer or did any conservatives turn them down?
If all those millionaires you listed each donated their own money, they could have probably accomplished the same thing. Then they could have utilized the time they spent at the concert distributing things to those in need.

Actually the article had no political comments about party. This is 100% the OP's "data point".
It's another perfect example of how the different party ideologies react to disasters like this.
Those on the left are first in line to help out their fellow americans.
Those on the right just sit on their lazy asses and doing nothing but complaining about "da libs"
Our family just finished gathering jackets, sweaters, etc., plus a box of emergency blankets and a box of hand warmers that we're going to donate for distribution directly to storm victims.
What did you do? Watch a concert? You don't know the first thing about volunteering or helping people in need. YOU are the complainer. We see it every single day, right here on C-D. In fact, you're one of the most prolific complainers on the board, and you couldn't have a civil discussion if someone paid you. Nothing but virulent hate comes from your keyboard. Must burn you up inside.

I meant what I said, and I said they RAISED it.
