Beating a stingy horse

YOU ARE VISITING THE OLD MALKIN(S)WATCH. THAT'S FANTASTIC. PLEASE VISIT THE NEW MALKIN(S)WATCH WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE.

Malkin continues to use the word "stingy" for her own gain regardless of how it was used to begin with...

SANDRA BULLOCK: NOT STINGY
The Austin (Tx.) Business Journal reports:

On-again, off-again Austin resident Sandra Bullock has donated $1 million to the American Red Cross for tsunami disaster relief in southern Asian and eastern Africa.

Kudos to her! Will other Hollywood Citizens of the World follow suit?

First of all, Michelle, inasmuch as the word "stingy" was being applied to the US, it was never applied to its private citizens, but rather a government that at the time had promised only $15 million in aid. And if, as you and other righties claimed, that $15 million was enough, why has it since been raised to $350 million?

Having said that, she does make a good point, as much as I hate to admit it...as of yet, Hollywood has been curiously silent; I'm not a staunch defender of Hollywood activists anyway, but it does seem like an obvious opportunity for Sarandon et al. to put their money where their mouth is.

I would imagine we will hear more about this in the near future, but for now, let's get cracking, Babs!
