More equivalencies
Rex Hammock says:
Like Jeff, I’m tuning out the misguided attempts by some to come up with moral or monetary equivalences to the tsunami and to suggest that we should cancel this or that and give the money to relief. Stop with the politicizing of this tragedy, people. Even Mark Cuban, my favorite billionaire blogger, has called for the cancellation of the presidential inauguration festivities so that funds can be diverted to tsunami relief. Huh? Why not call for the cancellation of the NBA season and take all the dollars advertisers have committed for broadcasting it and send those funds to tsunami relief? What, the advertisers won’t do that? Have you asked?
OOPS! I messed up a tag and the attribution of this good post was lost. It is Rex Hammock’s, not mine. Credit and flaming where credit and flaming are due! Sorry, Rex. If you came here because of the Instalanch, please go to Rex to (a) give him the traffic love and (b) read the whole post, which is even better….
