There are groups: Blue Star Mothers of America, a support group, that councils spouses of their needs, financially and morally, The USO, ...We are constantly gathering supplies, such as lotions,... are in constant need, for lack of these items being readily available.... The media would have us believe that Cheny's Halliburton was tending to all those needs via their no-bid contracts. Some of the clips they used to show made it look like Main Street, Vacationland. That along with money donated to purchase all of the other items, add up and are largely donated by retired workers, like me. ...<pregnant pause>... It may not seem like much, but the letters and photos we receive, are worth it. This group did a lot of good, when AP had its' Katrina Drive right after the storm. I met many of the incredible people in this group and those who know me, know that I'm eternally grateful! We come through, when needed Wow, Sharon, what a great tribute to the value of community service, human interaction, and selfless giving. just don't know how this war is going to affect citizens, for decades to come! It's a shame! All those unaccounted for billions are a shame, more likely criminal! Regaining our lost goodwill will take decades. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour
