I would like to choose where I donate my money.<br />Look at Sotomayor-when she accepted her nomination, did she brag about the govt. assitance she received from the govt? No-she talked about how she and her family worked really hard to get her to where she is today-it is the Republican philosophy that got her to where she is today.<br />Government assistance is absolutly necessary (I graduated with a Social Work degree, I am very familiar with the pain and suffering out there)-but cradle to grave entitlements will hurt our country.nmackinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768604204313857311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-351688604843713825.post-25923739355034915512009-06-09T13:54:02.555-07:002009-06-09T13:54:02.555-07:00Most of the poor do have addictions and some are d...Most of the poor do have addictions and some are due to the mental and spiritual issues they have due to things that have happened in their lives. Not justifying their behavior but Jesus did say to do unto the least of these as you do unto Me and generally we can't know what these people are doing with what we give. Our job is just to do unto them so to speak.danacolbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08376598998755592582noreply@blogger.com
