Bucks..NOT the piddly 15 mil he is putting up..that's like me putting up a Hundred bucks....This guy can afford to put his money where his mouth is..If he REALLY feels Bush is the greatest threat to mankind ever, like we all do, I submit that he should to put way more cash up to defeat Bush and his BIG $$ contributors..That goes for all the very rich celebs as well. Oprah can afford to put up 10's of millions, as well as the many many other Hollywood Liberals...PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS!!!

1. we should be thankful for whatever money he gives us
15 mil is alot in terms of a political campaign.

I believe he'll contribute more once 1 candidate is chosen and we can rally around him.

4. weren't liberals fighting against
just this for several years to get CFR passed? You know, to get the big money out of politics.

Personally, I was opposed to CFR.

7. Whatever happened to campaign finance reform?
Was that all just a sham?

Lately you can come to DU to read about how gun control should be a state's rights issue and why we need billionaires donating more to campaigns.

What's going on?
