It's not much at all, but I give Bernie 25 bucks every few months and there are a few folks who deserve a little help (and a little help's all they can get from me-haha!!).Austanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568578637922817033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-65339342891588693862012-09-28T12:56:00.678-04:002012-09-28T12:56:00.678-04:00EC- same here.

Makes me want to run for the hills. <br /><br />Amazing how you can work your budget to include that much. Those $5's really add up.

However, political parties and charities are exempt. Humph. They will often get more from me if they don't call, and leave me to make up my own mind. I love your principles.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-40116872713982066782012-09-27T22:17:52.350-04:002012-09-27T22:17:52.350-04:00

I should have done something better with that $10.00.Starting Over, Accepting Changes - Maybehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032033918798053005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-82287443233744511792012-09-27T15:49:23.717-04:002012-09-27T15:49:23.717-04:00Susan- those PACs are the real pain in the ass, ar...Susan- those PACs are the real pain in the ass, aren't they?

I respect people who follow their conscience to donate whatever they can, as opposed to those super PACS (with NO conscience) dumping mega-millions into the races.<br /><br />Oh, and I love your title on this post.
