1. .
I can't help thinking how scared that little girl is. How she doesn't know what is happening to her, or why it's happening.

6. Compassionate Conservatism
I have no words for how sad this photo makes me feel. I can't imagine how helpless her mother feels.

Little one, I'm so sorry.

10. I donated $50 to one of the recommended charities. If I had a billion
I would give it to never have an infant look like that again.

13. me too
we would make terrible rich people. We'd give almost all of it away and end up like we are now again (which is a hell of a lot better off than this little girl is).
