Now joining the list of donors is US President George W. Bush who has donated 10,000 dollars from his personal funds to the relief effort of tsunami-hit nations on Wednesday. Bush said: "The most important contribution a person can make is cash. There's huge generosity here in America."
Now, I'm a huge believer in leading by example, and I was really hoping to see the President give a personal donation. But...ten grand? Maybe I've lost perspective somehow, but it seems like someone who comes from such a privileged background, holds a steady, high-paying job, and has massive personal resources could likely pony up a little more money.
As my husband said, "That's like you and I donating fifty cents."
