Thirty states have struck such deals with banks that include Citigroup Inc., Bank of America Corp., JP Morgan Chase and US Bancorp, an Associated Press review of the agreements found. All the programs carry fees, and in several states the unemployed have no choice but to use the debit cards. Some banks even charge overdraft fees of up to $20 — even though they could decline charges for more than what’s on the card.
I’m sorry but this is just wrong.
When GOP congressional aides gather Tuesday morning for a meeting of the Conservative Working Group, Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher – more commonly known as Joe the Plumber — will be their featured guest. This group is an organization of conservative Capitol Hill staffers who meet regularly to chart GOP strategy for the week.
May I go on the record at how bizarre this is? Someone please tell me what credentials this guy has to advise anyone on anything.
This note came to me from another member of the Nashville for All of Us coalition:
just thought i would share this with all you…while tucking in my 12 year old daughter i whispered in her ear that the english only amendment (of which she has heard me speak about at home) had been defeated…to which she smiled and then said that “now maybe people can start trying to find the good in each other and stop focusing on our differences”…
tonight was truly a good night for nashville
Amen
This chorus came to me today and I will be working on a lyric to match:
God of the Ages, we know you are here.
God of all Wisdom, come whisper in our ears.
For we are broken, and we are weak.
God of the Ages, speak.
