A United Way Fund dinner was canceled after receiving critical letters from donors for choosing Susan Sarandon as keynote speaker. Sarandon, as most people know, is one of the more vocal of the Hollywood Left, and it was feared the Fund dinner would provide a political platform for Sarandon (something the Left certainly does NOT need, given the shameful representation made on their behalf by the moronic Michael Moore at the Oscars).

Louis A. Spiegel III, was one of those who sent United Way a letter criticizing its choice of Sarandon as a speaker. He said he is not a donor and that he spoke as an individual, not on behalf of his company, Itasca Construction Associates Inc., where he is vice president.
“(Sarandon) is welcome to her opinion, and I’m welcome not to listen to it,” he said. “I’m welcome to avoid her un-American comments. She has her right to say what she wants to say today and whenever she wants to, but I have the right to do her financial damage by not attending her movies or attending anything associated with her.”
