4. Bill Clinton
Edited on Tue Aug-30-05 12:32 AM by Joyce78
When do Bill Clinton and Poppy Bush team up in a heart's beat to raise relief aid for American citizens ... I jumped in with my credit card to assist tsunami victims pronto. All that I've seen is constant coverage of Katrina ... when do former presidents step up?? We know the current occupant is somewhere in CA probably fundraising.

Fundraising for GOP ... certainly not for hurricane victims and sufferers.
