So, he puts his money toward issues and people he thinks will support them. Only 16 percent of his donations found their way to Republican candidates... the rest went toward groups. Sure, he is very Anti-Bush... but Bush is not the entire party, and there are a lot of the GOP who would love to see him go as well. I was more surprised at Prince....
