Liberal Compassion

A great source of irritation for me is when celebrities chastize conservatives for their perceived lack of compassion. Clearly, celebrities do not see the irony of attending charity galas or awards shows wearing gowns and suits, and sporting jewelry that could feed and support an untold number of poor for a year. How many celebrities are content to simply write checks or vote Democrat to alleviate their sense of guilt for having so much while many have so little? How many, after making an appearence at some soup kitchen or downtrodden neiborhood, are whisked away in their limos to their posh estates after publicly demonstrating their "compassion"? How many celebrities are content in thinking that, because they support liberal candidates and policies, they have demonstrated their compassion and met their obligation to the poor? Why would people let themselves be shamed by a celebrity? I will not.
