Sharon Stone Hijacks WEF
Just another up-to-no-good, America-hating hollywood liberal:
"DAVOS, Switzerland - Actress Sharon Stone hijacked the staid World Economic Forum on Friday, interrupting a panel on poverty with a spur-of-the-moment fund-raiser that within minutes brought in more than $1 million to fight malaria in Africa.Way to go, Dr. Frist.
U.S. Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn., was moderating a session on anti-poverty efforts when Stone stood to address a panel that included Microsoft founder Bill Gates and the presidents of Brazil and Tanzania.
'Please identify yourself,' said Frist, perhaps one of the few men on the planet who couldn't visually identify the sultry star of such hit movies as 'Basic Instinct' and 'Casino.'
'Sharon Stone,' she said dryly, proceeding to announce that she was giving $10,000 on the spot to help Tanzanian President Benjamin William Mbaka's anti-malaria efforts. As Frist tried to steer the conversation back to poverty, Stone talked over him, urging people to stand up and give to Mbaka.
'People are dying in his country today,' she said."
