Compassion

Got a call from the March of Dimes today. I listened to the woman's prepared text, and said, 'I'm sorry, we will no longer be donating, please take us off your list.' She asked why, and I said, 'Due to the election results, we have decided not to enable the Bush Administration by supporting charitable organizations who are filling the vaccuum caused by his mishandling of the country. It's all up to President Bush now.'

She sounded surprised.

We will say this to all of the organizations we donated to last year, when they come a' callin' this month and next.

For the next four years, we help our own, and that is it. We contribute to political causes, and that is it.
