3. I did not believe it at first

I guess no one wants to be on the wrong end of this tragedy. Wonder what Mitchie will do?

5. It is a tax break

No doubt that the repukes will be all for it. Of course, most of the scum on the right won't be able to take advantage because they haven't donated, maybe this will convince them.

2. Wow. I donated through Doctors without Borders

Wasn't planning on a deduction when I did it, but it would be nice if this passed. Perhaps more will donate if this passes.

4. I'll take the deduction but wasn't planning on it.

Doctors Without Borders & Partners in Health are my charities. They have low administrative cost. Effective use of your donation.
