Why screw around with $100 a time when you can hunt whales for a few $M apiece ?

It's just efficiency. They all do it.

People ask rich people for donations because that's where the money is.

And they gladly fork it over as protection racket. Do you know of any Occupy Hollywood?

So you think the Democrats should get their campaign money from people who don't have any? You are such a sap.

I have yet to see a homeless testify on behalf of the homeless. All we see are the Moores and Baldwins of the world. They are of course buying themselves protection. They don't care a whiff about which cardboard box the homeless will sleep in tonight. And it is working for them. Ever heard of Occupy Hollywood?

Matthew 25:31-46

The Sheep and the Goats

31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life. ”

The President will be at the White House, not Paris, on the Fourth of July:

The fund raiser was never advertised as having the President in attendance. Some over-active imaginations (can you say Breitbart?) spun that little detail out of whole cloth.

As an agnostic, I could not care less for the professes. I'm glad for you of faith but also keenly aware what that sort of faith can be distorted to and ultimately become.

It can be read as a parable, Roger.

The desire to help others is a good one.
