Default Helping the Hungry

Thanks to our tanked economy, there are millions of Americans who are
going through hard times this holiday season.

You can make a difference through your charitable contributions to
non-profit organizations that help the needy with food, shelter,
clothing, medical care, et cetera.

There are many organizations that help.

Here's one:

Catholic Charities is another.

Many other churches run food banks and serve meals to the needy.

Local government agencies might be another place to look for help.

You once said you give 60 hours of your time per week supporting charities.
God bless you.

Wow...that sucks.

From the article:

"Giant said that they don't want the bells to "hinder their [customers']
shopping experience."

What a bunch of b.s. The Salvation Army kettles are part of the holiday
experience. Besides, what kind of "shopping experience" is there at a
supermarket? It's just a supermarket, and not a particularly good one.

Remember when Giant was locally owned? It was a far better organization
before it was bought out by a series of distant corporate empires.

I called Giant's Consumer Affairs office. The lady acted surprised when I said I'd not be shopping
there.

Here, I'll save you the trouble:

I don't want to be an ass hole, but going to be anyways.

Nothing like hunger to either deteriorate people into animals or smarten
up the voting habits.

Obamanomics is sinking fast. Who would have guessed you couldn't
debt-spend your way out of a debt problem. All Obama is doing is
bringing the ghetto to middle class America.

So sad.

says the social darwinist who wants the middle class destroyed.

gee. george bush bankrupted the US. but, because obama's a darkie,
canuck wants him strung up

sure you can. look at what happened during ww2 after the depression

you're a moron

.. All Obama is doing is

sorry. the right already did that. in 37 years the middle class has
had NO increase in wages. the richest 1% had a FIVE HUNDRED PERCENT
INCREASE

and you think that's wonderful and you get to blame it on the darkie


So sad.
