Memorial Day

Thousands of Americans died in defense of the constitution & Bill of rights, the bedrock of this blessed country, and the their way of life.

Their sacrifices granted freedom for new immigrants like myself even.

Let’s remember them.

Dambisa Under attack

ft.com: “A swell of opposition is building in the aid world to a new protagonist who has thrown down a strident challenge to the rock stars and liberal economists who have long dominated debate over foreign assistance to developing countries.”

It doesn’t surprise me at all. This is a critical problem for the ‘pro aid’ groups. If they don’t have poor people for their informercials and fliers, how are they going to get paid; who is going to foot the bill for their stays at Sheraton and four seasons; who is going to pay for their kids private school tuition; how are Bono and the likes get a sense of doing something. No surprise at all they are defaming Dambisa.

Dambisa, please keep it up; please don’t be discouraged; please fight on; please get the word out.
