Watched the Red Sox and Angels last night

And during the game the newscasters spoke of certain players who are helping out hurricane victims.

Curt Schilling put up a family of NINE in a hotel. FOR A YEAR.

There was an Angel player who's allowing another family to live in his Atlanta house.

Where the hell are the "compassionate" Lefties who also happen to be outright rich? Micheal Moore? Hello? How many millions did you make on your latest crockumentary? Ol' Babs could put up three fucking families in her house on the beach. Hell, most of the fuckwitted actors and celebrities who howl about how mean Bush is and how nice they are could afford to buy or rent houses all over the South and Southeast for hurricane victims to live in. For that matter, they could rent out entire hotels for a year with all the money they have. That would help these people a hell of a lot more than the carping and bitching we've seen from the Left. Why not put action behind their words? But what do we get instead?

Sean fucking Penn trying to get more photo ops on a sinking boat.

Yeah, that's just what the people of New Oleans need.

Put up or shut up, Lefties. And those on the Left who happen to sleep on beds made of hundred dollar bills? Put your money where your mouth is.

UPDATE: Helo at Drumwaster's Rants has an actual link to the Schilling story, along with a few more details.

The Schillings have pledged to provide housing for the family for a year, and are trying to arrange for the children to attend school. The Fieldses plan to attend their first-ever Major League baseball game, tonight at Fenway Park.

The Schillings have visited the family frequently since they arrived, bringing clothing, medicine and toys, and have called several times to check in, Fields said.

‘’They are beautiful people, God-loving people,” Fields said. ‘’I am very grateful for what he’s done for me.”

Though the Schillings are outspoken advocates for many causes, notably ALS, or Lou Gehrig’s disease, the Schillings made arrangements for the Fields family quietly, and discussed it only after they were contacted by The Boston Globe.

The Schillings are known for charitable work. In 2001, Curt Schilling won the Roberto Clemente Award, given annually to the Major League player who combines outstanding skills on the field with work in the community.

The pitcher said the wives of other Major League ballplayers are also trying to arrange to help families in need.

(Emphasis mine)

That's the difference between those who have class and those who don't. Sean Penn just wants photo-ops. Schilling didn't discuss what he was doing until the Globe called him. Penn is nothing but a publicity seeking asshat. Schilling is a decent human being.
