Hope! Change! Are you better off now than you were four years ago? (Photos!)
Edited on Sat Apr-19-08 11:07 PM by IanDB1
Here is a vacant home in Washington, Pennsylvania that's been foreclosed on and has $211.00 in unpaid taxes.

I took these photos today.






Notice anything?











But yet, there is hope for change, right next door.





Either Hillary or Obama will certainly be an improvement over Bush, and are six billion times better than McCain.

I urge Pennsylvania to support Obama, but I absolutely implore everyone else to support the eventual Democratic nominee.

1. Yeah, I spotted that sticker even before you pointed it out!
The ultimate irony!

I feel as though things are better now...

Because we have two such outstanding nominees!

Better days are coming...

It won't be easy, winning this election...

But I do believe that we will win it...

Thank you for the great pics!

3. Well, hopefully the Democratic party doesn't implode this year...
and we end up posting pictures like that a year from now with McCain stickers on the foreclosed homes... and seeing the irony in the pix as we are now.

4. Looks like they VOTED against their BEST Interest and VOTED outta FEAR
I hate to say it, but it looks as though they get what they deserved. Most people are such ill informed voters. I wonder what they think about W'04 NOW.

5. Maybe they WANTED to lose their home? Maybe that was in their best interest?
You know.

Taking personal responsibility for finding shelter.

8. Personally, WE are better off...BUT just because WE are, it's no reason
Edited on Sun Apr-20-08 01:20 AM by SoCalDem
to not want OTHERS to do well too.. Our "betterness" is due to the fact that my husband has a great job and a fantastic boss, but that has not always been the case throughout our 38 yr marriage..

I know there are many struggling young families who are just starting out, and without some help, they will never get to where we are now..and many older people who have not been as lucky as we are..
