31. Thank you for understanding! I do appreciate it.
No, there isn't much difference with the poverty issue.

As far as the "faith-based" initiatives.... well, we need JUSTICE NOT CHARITY.

We need LOW-INCOME HOUSING, not a church-run shelter. That shouldn't be that hard for "progressives" to understand, should it?

Can you imagine saying the same things about, say.. the labor movement? Wouldn't that be something?

"Maybe it will enlighten some of Obama's campaign interns who seem to be posting here en masse lately."

Do you suppose they really think this amount of attack and vilification of the people they supposedly have so much in common with, will get them the votes they want?

Yes, I'm copying all of these ugly attacks, and showing them to other people, who are absolutely amazed, and feel like all of this should be reported to the Obama headquarters, because it doesn't reflect what they wish their spokespeople to be about. I think it's time to "enlighten" Obama himself about the prejudice and ugliness in his own campaign people.


" So we'll bookmark this thread and see where we are in a year. Should be interesting. "

Very good idea. Not that any of these people will EVER admit to having been wrong, let alone apologize. And THAT they share in common with the RW.
