As much as they're into supposedly into books and poetry, it's surprising this one hasn't tried to put together a raft, draft the assistance of a poor black man and float on down there like Tom Sawyer. He could trade door knobs and not paint fences along the way for income. Guess building that raft would harm some trees or be too much work or something...
Just curious but just when this Wish- a- do and trying to raise money come about in the DU ?
Not knowing about this site, before Obama, were the Liberals out and becoming beggars in the streets and loosing their homes as they lost heir jobs ? Were the banks lending to those because they were affirmative Action Banks ?
Perhaps it was because I worked 6 days a week, 10 hours a day and really had little idea what the rest of the country was going through. Some I worked with had a part time job on the side , I tried that also but as I had hit 50 years old it became a matter of banking money and a big hit to my health. Lots of money in the bank but no time to spend it on a vacation or even a night out for wining , dining or even a dance or two.
I have never felt poor, always knew if I needed money I could get a job at even $5.00 PH. BUT, that was when I was Young, under 50 and could handle the work load and watched as people 20 years younger just sat back and got the LBJ benefits.
I have much to bitch about on both party's but, as an American I can do so without the swat team arresting me for thought, so far, but when do I find they can and will do under Obama ????
