"Bush had not yet made a personal donation to the relief effort"
"Bush had not yet made a personal donation to the relief effort, but his aides said he plans to do so."

"The greatest source of America's generosity is not our government. It's the good heart of the American people," Bush said Monday, flanked by the two former presidents."

Yea right you cheap ass multi-millionaire Republican!

6. Bill Clinton said he hasn't yet, either.
John Roberts of CBS Evening News interviewed him and ghw bush and asked them if they personally had made donations yet.

Clinton said no, he was deciding which organization to give to.

Poppy Bush said something to the effect that Bar had already made a sizeable donation for both of them.

I can't believe Clinton would have let that happen. He should have just written a friggin check!
