phantom22 Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 Every year I made a generous donation to the Telethon. Then first my home in So. Cal. became worthless. Then my tech stocks Oracle, etc. became worthless. Then my retirement income got eaten up by escalating housing costs. I have to struggle to survive in a Bush-dominated America. Perhaps I can pledge $25.00 and forego eating for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
