Midknight Review -- new and revised: Homeless count in our larger cities (there are homelless folks in virtually all of our cities, BTW).

NY City - 60,849; L.A. - 36,165; Seattle 11,199; S.F. - 8,011; D.C. - 6,521; Boston 6,203; and San Diego (with a Republican mayor) - 5,082. The fact of the matter is this: Without exception, every city, large or small, have homeless folks living in the streets or in city parks or under bridges or . . . . . . wherever. In Fresno, Ca. (pop 600,000), there are hundreds of folks living in and around the G Street Mission . . . . tents galore. In Sanger, 12 miles to the East of Fresno, with a population of 24,000, we have 300/400 hundred homeless folks living in tents in the bushes, or, near the several canals running through and on the outskirts of the city.

A significant number of these people are mentally ill. or, in some way have a limited ability to care for themselves. They have no job skills, for the most part, and their ability to move into a more prosperous way of life is simply non-existent. How the larger community provides for these people is a statement to the thoughtfulness and foresight of those who have not been left behind by society.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
