2. Everyone could do more, but why iseveryone picking on Edwards?
What about Cheney, Shrub, all the millionairs in the Senate and the House? I remember seeing Shrub's & Cheney's charitable contributions from their tax returns one year. The amount in comparrison was pityful!

5. No, I'm not a paid shill.

I thought I made a pretty fair post, in any case. Plenty of opportunities to argue both sides.

6. Sure he could ...
he could donate a significant part of his wealth to the unfortunate.

Does anyone here have access to his 2005 tax return?
