Call Him Out

OK, so how much money will Cindy "100 Million" give when she hands over her "wallet" to the Gustav victims? From "McCain and Palin Receive Briefing"

We Americans, obviously, I am directing program changes for beginning on Monday night’s activities at our convention. We must redirect our efforts from the really celebratory event of the nomination of the president and vice president of our party to acting as all Americans. We’ll change our program and we’ll be announcing that and the details of it in the next few hours.

But there is very little doubt that we have to go from a party event to the call to the nation for action, action to help our fellow citizens in this time of tragedy and disaster, action in the form of volunteering, donations, reaching out our hands and our hearts and our wallets to the people who are under such great threat from this great natural disaster. I pledge that tomorrow night, and if necessary, throughout our convention if necessary, to act as Americans not Republicans, because America needs us now no matter whether we are Republican or Democrat.

Plus, I love the implicit admission that the ordinary form of Republican conventions and activities are always ugly, partisan, and divisive.
