21. That is sad

I am sure the local "Meals on Wheels" would gladly drop by schools every day to pick up food to distribute to the elderly......

This nation, under Republicans, has become so F'***ed up, when it comes to caring for the dis-advantaged.........

My wife and I, every year, give a substantial financial donation to the Food Bank of the Rockies, and are proud to do so.
They can use the money to get much better prices on food, than if we just went to the store and bought them food......

And all my Republican Friends and Relatives can't understand why I don't speak to any of them, and haven't......since Cheney/Rumsfeld.....
