I've been going thru threads giving hearts to those who don't have them especially after reading this:

Fox guest on classroom fairness: Exclude kids who don’t deserve a ‘pity Valentine’
A Fox News guest on Thursday asserted that some children should be excluded when Valentine’s Day cards are given out at school so that they can learn that the world isn’t fair while the “stakes are low.â€
For years, many teachers have asked grade-school students to bring Valentine’s Day cards for everyone in the class if they bring them to school. But when one New Jersey teacher sent a note home this year explaining the policy, Fox News hosted a segment suggesting that political correctness was running amuck.
“Valentine’s Day is about expressing your unique heartfelt feelings for your special loved one,†blogger Elizabeth Esther told Fox News host Elisabeth Hasselbeck. “To just robotically hand out, ‘Here’s your Valentine, here’s your Valentine.’ Like, what are we? It totally removes the meaning, the special memory for the kids.â€
Why must DUmmies proclaim their greatness if/when they do something they think is nice. Why not just do it and get on with their lives.
As to the article, the over powering concern for political correctness has for a long time, in my opinion and in the words of the Fox guest been "...running amuck..."

Using DUmp logic, I'm curious as to why no uproar over Skinners offer of Valentines for Friends Week. Won't some feel left out if no one gives them a heart? Hypocrites.

If I remember right but it was a very long time ago, I think we had to give everyone a Valentine's card too. However, you would pick the worst cards for guys and people you didn't like.

What's this constant need for liberals to promote themselves and be recognized for "doing good deeds"?
Look you dimwits, either do things because they're the right thing to do and keep your mouth shut about it, or don't do it at all. Of course the racist catwoman primitive has no concept of the meaning of shutting up and just appearing stupid. She always has to remove all doubt.

Apparently "Hormones made me do it" is a legitimate defense for women, but not for men, according to the Proglodytes.

Matt 6:1-4
"Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be noticed by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven.
“So when you [a]give to the poor, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be honored by men. Truly I say to you, they have their reward in full. But when you give to the poor, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your [c]giving will be in secret; and your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you.

:lol:
I did the same thing. We would bring in a shoe box and decorate it with construction paper hearts and paper doilies.
