If prayer dug one out of poverty, I'd have been a millionaire by the time I reached second grade. :( What a maroon.

Well, you never know...it might not be a bad idea IF he does 2 things

1. He must expand the amount of funds currently alloted to Social Services, not take money away from presntly funded social service programs

and

2. He must NOT discriminate based on religion. Who knows, this might turn out to be a way for Pagan Churches to help (and get some money for it) those in their communities...It might go a long way to helping the image of the Pagan community by making it more visible...

BUT I don't think he will do either of those things, so how he implements it will be bad...

*sigh*

Dumbya's declared war on poverty, eh?

I also believe he's declared war on stupidity and nepotism as well. Now just look at his track record on those issues...
