I belong to a Methodist Church in a rural area with a small congretion of 30 or so. This past Sunday the Pastor started his sermon by saying how much good the Bush tax cut could have done if it had been used to alleviate poverty. He then went on to say that the gap between the rich and the poor in this country has never been greater. I don't know what he said after this as I walked out as he had assured me a few months ago that the pulpit would not be used for political purposes. Now as I contemplate my possibile response to this situation I am in need of facts concerning the Bush tax cut and the good it did this great nation and the alleged wide gap between the rich and poor. My guess is that the Bush administration has done plenty to alleviate poverty. Thanks for any facts you might provide.........

America has the fattest poor people in the world. It just so happens that most of the poor people have money for beer, cigarettes, and occasionally a big screen TV.
