Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins on Hypocrisy Watch By James Hirsen July 29, 2008 Apparently Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins’ concern for the underprivileged only extends to the less fortunate who live in neighborhoods other than their own. The liberal pair resides in a chic part of Greenwich Village. Three blocks away is St. Vincent Hospital, which is purportedly in need of larger facilities. The hospital is well known for giving needed medical care to the poor. The New York Post reported that the facility provides $40 million a year in care to the indigent. Sarandon and Robbins recently appeared at a Landmarks Preservation Commission hearing in order to express their opposition to the hospital’s expansion. “Improving the hospital is a great idea. However, this can be accomplished without compromising the neighborhood. St. Vincent's should consider the proposed alternative solutions,” Sarandon said in a statement. In other words, help the poor, but go do it in someone else’s backyard. |
