In doing research about Gandhi a few years back, there were several claims made that he slept in the nude with young girls to prove that he was free of temptation. It was considered an honor to be the parent of a young girl who Gandhi selected. I can tell you this, to me that is a child molester.

Ghandi didn't bother me. I would have partied with him.
But I'll tell you... that Agnes Bojaxhiu b1tch really pissed me off.

I'm confused.

Agnes Bojaxhiu = Mother Teresa

If Gandhi stepped out of the shadows and criticized our president with ludicrous claims and offered no positive suggestions it would be my pleasure to send his anorexic *ss walking.
Even quality people can step in ***** and their motivation is key.
Gandhi would not concern himself with demeaning another world leader for sensational self promotion.
I would have bet Mandela wouldn't either and I would have been wrong.

Plenty of starving in this country and I don't see the churches selling off any of their real estate to feed them.

I know...to fix the homeless problem we could take all the cricifixes from everyone and use them as flooring. And that Shroud of Turin would make great drapes...

"Low food secure"? Even if I grant you such a vague definition, it's not due to a lack of free resources. Some people are either too crazy or drugged out to take advantage or care. These are not starvation victims.

GWB could not carry Gandhi's jockstrap/thong/whatnot...













But he'd hold hands with him and tiptoe through the tulips if he was a sheik or a prince.

Ghandi makes most world leaders in history look like cavemen thugs.

Ghandi was a different man in a different time, if he was alive in Iraq, the US, or Iran right now who would know or care.
Maybe he is in France.

"low food secure households." = starvation?

..did Ghandi inspire that gem of truthfulness and accuracy?

The 2004 report
Ordinarily I'm ready, round chambered, trigger set and range calculated to take a shot at a statement like that especially from this author but working to feed the hungry is my thing. The best way to cure hunger is to make certain that everyone understands that even in America people are hungry.
No one should be hungry. I don't care why. If a crack monkey is sitting in a closet and needs a bugger, I say feed him. It's the least we can do for one another.
If I could do one thing in government, I would eliminate anything that paid farmers not to grow. I would grow it feed the world. Yes, I feed stray cats too.
