As long as it is someone else's money, of course.

I rarely meet a liberal who freely gives more than a token amount to charitie. To the charge of being greedy and stingey, I simply challenge them to match their copy of their 1040 showing charitable contributions against mine. If they can beat me in either percentage or amount, I will give them $20. I have never had a single one of them take me up. Instead they usually shut up and slink away.

You certainly would have beat Al Gore in 1998--he gave $270--how generous. The next year he gave a lot more. Not because he became generous, but because the press got a copy of his 1040 and he was embarassed.
