#503 - Hollow Praise for Volunteers

From this year's State of the Union address:

Americans are doing the work of compassion every day: visiting prisoners, providing shelter for battered women, bringing companionship to lonely seniors. These good works deserve our praise, they deserve our personal support and, when appropriate, they deserve the assistance of the federal government.

Today we find out that apparently the assistance of the federal government isn't appropriate.

But thanks for the praise, George. And maybe you can provide some of that personal support from your campaign fund.

Though I'm not American, I love your blog! Or maybe it's because I'm not American that I love your blog? Hmm...

Bush is a horrible leader, and a dumbass. You like this site because you like freedom, and true leadership, not because you're not american
