How many could be served using the money churches use to build mega-churches or buying the preacher a Lexus? How many could be served by not building a town square in Madison, MS? How many could be served by redirecting funds from any of these stupid pet projects going on in the country?

That's not really fair but I get your point. Maybe Edwards is the one who should be throwing in his remaining campaign funds to get those vets out from under the bridges of America.
