1. I thought Michael J. Fox was a Canadian

I guess I'm wrong because he gave $2000 to Kerry.

[CMT]

2. I think he is

but he can still make a donation.

[cjbuchanan]

11. Just looking up more information

I thought you had to be a US citizen, but you can also be a permanent resident alien. I would guess Michael J. Fox falls under the permanent resident alien part.

[West Coast Democrat]

12. He's Married To An American, Isn't He?

I believe he was born Canadian, but has American citizenship.

[cjbuchanan]

13. Maybe that's it

I forgot about that whole marry in clause. Thanks.

[blm]

3. They missed Sorkin for Kerry.

Sorkin donated to other candidates but endorsed Kerry a while back.

[mzmolly]

4. Funny, Christopher Guest is married to Jamie Lee Curtis

I guess they back different candidates ;) :shrug:

[PROGRESSIVE1]

5. I was going to say that now we know who to...

boycott, but after looking at the list of conservative celebrities (A.K.A, "The Loosers"), there's nothing that they are offering that I would want in the first place!


:kick:

[dkamin]

7. what are you talking about?

walker, texas ranger was one of the best shows ever.

and delta force 3 was a masterpiece.

[PROGRESSIVE1]

8. That's your OPINION!!!!!!

You liked it and I DIDN'T!

:eyes:

[samsingh]

6. that's a powerful list

[bearfartinthewoods]

10. that's a short list.. i can't belive that's all there is.

it makes me happy though to see almost all multi givers included Edwards. it shows what broad based appeal he can have.

[PatrickS]

9. Some surprises

Jami Gertz is a Repuke?!?!

I thought Jack Valenti, Melissa Gilbert and Chevy Chase were Repukes?!?!

Barbra gave to Sharpton?!?!

Dino De Laurentiis is still alive?!?!

:)
