Derb and Teresa

Can it be that they actually think along similar lines on the question of contribution to the tsunami relief?

Here is Teresa Heinz-Kerry, winning this week's “LimoLefty” Award from the Federalist Patriot:
This week's "LimoLefty" Award: "Obviously, our philanthropic focus is here in America and in Pittsburgh, but the astronomical proportions of this disaster demand that we act." --Maria Teresa Thiersten Simoes-Ferreira Heinz Kerry on a $450,000 contribution in aid to Asia by the Heinz Endowments and the Heinz Family Philanthropies
And here is John Derbyshire on National Review Online:
The problem is, that until the wave function collapses at a personal encounter, strangers in remote places are an abstraction.
The only difference was that Derb did not write a check. I shall pass no judgment for or against either.
