Wed, 15 Oct 2008 18:48:33 +0000 http://blog.blogtalkradio.com/?p=3930#comment-795 Congratulations, Lucinda! I have been homeless myself a couple times and I know firsthand the fear and hopelessness of this terrible situation. The reality of poverty is something that effects us all and with our current economy suffering from a <a href="http://www.economist.com/opinion/displaystory.cfm?story_id=11016333" rel="nofollow">mounting recession</a> and our own government sending <a href="http://www.davidduke.com/general/3494_3494.html" rel="nofollow">billions of dollars overseas</a> instead of using that money to help people in their own backyard today it is more vital then ever that everyone do their part to help. Hopefully, this day will inspire you to seek out ways you can help - in your own neighborhoods, food shelters, food banks, churches, and community centers - because fighting the war against poverty is not in Iraq or Africa or Afghanistan but everywhere. Congratulations, Lucinda!
