I's prefer it if they'd just say, "We wanted the money to please our donors so we just took it." But to claim it's going to help create jobs is such a lie -- and they know it! I'll tell you what would create jobs: A HUGE INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC WORKS PACKAGE.
For those who saw my quote from A RETURN TO LOVE misattributed to Nelson Mandela last night on the CNN Heroes Awards show, here is the Mandela Foundation official correction: nelsonmandela.org/news/entry…. I'd be honored had Mr. Mandela quoted the words, but he didn't. An urban myth.
Are you under the impression that protesting is unlawful in America? It is not. It is a Constitutionally protected right that is one of the bulwarks of our freedom. "The right to free assembly"
Nelson Mandela never quoted those words, although of course I would have been deeply honored had he done so. That was simply an urban myth. They are a paragraph from my book "a return to love"
