"Cowardice asks the question...is it safe? Expediency asks the question...is it politic? Vanity asks the question...is it popular? But conscience asks the question...is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because it is right." ~Dr. Martin Luther King

Don't  know  whether  you  heard  about this 
but  Denzel  Washington  and  his family visited
the  troops at   Brook   Army Medical Center ,  in  
San  Antonio ,
  Texas (BAMC) the other day. This
is where soldiers who have been  evacuated from
Germany  come to be hospitalized in the United
States, especially burn  victims There are some
buildings there called  Fisher  Houses.  The Fisher
House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,  
for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying  
on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled  
most of the time.


While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave
him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build.  
He took his cheque book out and wrote a cheque for the
full amount right there
on the spot. The soldiers  overseas were amazed to hear
this story and want to get the  word out to the American
public, because it warmed their hearts  to hear it


The question is
- why  do:

Britney   Spears
Madonna   

Tom  Cruise
and  

other Hollywood fluff  

make  front page news with their ridiculous
antics
and Denzel Washington's charity    
doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro  section of
any newspaper except the local newspaper in  San  
Antonio
.

To counter-act that article, the ' entitled ' female in the Petraeus scandal has claimed 'diplomatic immunity ' because she was named an honorary [ U.S. spelling ] Consul for the armed forces. She has it written on her license plate. Also about 3-4 million in debt. Some take & others give. We have seen that in Aurora.

Andre Agassi and his wife, Steffi Graf have a school for underprivileged kids. It has nothing to do with tennis and everything to do with the kids.
