What bush is doing is this: He's taking money away from the people who need it the most, and giving it away to religious groups that don't need it. Not only that, these are the groups that will most prey on the weak and needy (the people who _Should_ be getting that money). Furthermore, what business does a religious group have providing services that they can't pay for themselves? _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
