Song in my head: We shall stone the gays.....we shall stone the gays,.....We shall stone the gays some day...When Dominionism triumphs, I do believe we'll stone the.... gays some day....World O'Crap


I read some great posts today addressing the hunger issue. First a big THANK YOU to bloggers that write so eloquently about this issue. I try to give some perspective to my readers on what it is like to live on Social Security Disability benefits. I'm the first to admit I'm not a writer by skill or education. Add in the chronic fatigue and chronic pain and some days I feel it is a major accomplishment to post a song that I read in a blog somewhere. My point being more and more folks rely on food banks and soup kitchens then ever before! The pessimist explains the political implications:

This hunger-in-a-booming-economy situation makes the political realities in America today all the more painful. We've seen the Democrats fail the country time and time again, especially after they promised to do better next time after each failure over the last several years.


No More Mr Nice Blog sums it up nicely:

Never mind the GDP and the housing boom -- for the have-nots, these are hard times.
