On the recently released list of donors to the Clinton Library, four caught my eye:
McDonald’s … makes sense since he loved Big Macs almost as much as interns
“I Won’t Cheat” Foundation …. no joke — of the many charities doling out money to this political cause, this was among the more ironic
United Way … I’ve always been suspicious of the UW — from high exec comp & perks to the long list of questionable charities … this unadulterated political gift insures that they won’t ever get another buck from me
Georgetown University … so tuition and donor dollars get diverted to political causes? That’s disappointing news to me (and probably a lot of others)

Any chance you could elaborate on the United Way? It seems that each major region has a United Way that is fairly autonomous your suspicions might not fit them all as a whole. There were definitely issues with the DC Metro-area UW, but they seem to be working through them.
