Yesterday Mitt Romney turned a previously scheduled campaign event in Ohio into a hurricane relief event. Romney asked supporters to bring canned goods and other supplies to help storm victims recover on the East Coast. He only spoke for ten minutes at the event and quickly jumped in to help load supplies. His campaign bus has been accepting hurricane relief donations since Monday in Northern Virginia. Sounds like a great idea right? Not according to MSNBC.
Reporters and anchors at the far-left TV outlet were appalled at Romney's efforts to give back to the community, after all, his charity and generosity doesn't fit with their "Romney is an evil rich guy who doesn't care about regular people" narrative.
This is why TN was able to over come our floods we helped each other not depending on one organization. I remember the churches with food and other items handing it out. Also the same thing in Murfreesboro after tornadoes. If you try to help you should be praised not scolded. But I dont think it matters to mit what they say his heart is in the right place. I wonder how much he has already given to the red cross in $$

I would like to compare his percentage to Andrea Mitchell's I dare say his percentage would blow hers out of the water.

The Red Cross is NOT the only organization providing disaster relief. I saw that when our town was hit my tornadoes twice in three years. MOST of the organizations were faith based ....
During Hurricane Katrina I remember several truckloads of can goods, drinking water, cloths, and other items that people donated here in Iowa to be delivered to New Orleans were considered to be a blessing for those in need. Now it's just considered a waste and burden for the volunteers who are helping out?

You have to remember the source. Liberals have this warped belief that only government can solve all problems.
