Smoking baby circumcised on mountaintop by lost climbers

[Mortos]

I thought that would get your attention.

DU members, including me, have given over $3500 in one day to DU's official charity. I have noticed for 2 days the posts by Skinner on this topic have gotten scant attention and few comments but stupid adrenalin inducing posts on mountain climbers, smoking and circumcision cant keep up with the outraged comments and new posts. $3500 is a good start but it is really a drop in the bucket to what a community like this with over 99,000 members should be able to give.

I think DU members are better than we have shown so far.

Get up off your ass and give some money to charity. If every member gave a measly $5 it would equal nearly half a million dollars. We should be able to scrape together at least $100 grand.

Quit yer bitchen about smoking and lost mountain climbers and dig into you pockets and give the equivalent of a Starbucks cup of coffee to this charity and show that this group does more than beat problems to death with our keyboards.

Or go back to debating the pros and cons of smoking and beat that dead horse some more benifitting... no one.

Jesus Christ!

You remember him, he was the one who advocated giving to the poor and helping the underprivileged.

7. Things are better for me this year than have been for a while ...

Unfortunately, they are not for my newly married young adult son and his wife.

I am very grateful that I am able to help them (a year or two ago, this would not have been the case); however, there is nothing left over to help others ($$$$, there's always something I have to give other than $$$)

Knowing that I've helped makes me feel good. It'll make your spirits soar, as well.

12. While I value the push to donate to ASH...

What resources I have, I chose to give to local organizations, such as Northwest Harvest. I have nothing to offer America's Second Harvest, and my only comment would be to suggest that local charities be given priority of your money (and TIME!) over any national program (which comment would, beyond any doubt, cause a flamefest and get me banned from ever posting here again.)

So what should I do? Not post at all until the drive has ended? Please Mortos: after so many years of Republican leadership, I am incapable of doing anything unless someone tells me what to do.
