The story is that a reporter asked the celebrated bank bobber, Willie Sutton, why he robbed banks. "Because," said Willie, "that's where the money is." We wish that sort of clarity of thought were endemic in the halls of Congress. This year more than half the discretionary budget will go to the military. Just a small part of that would keep open that firehouse and school and library your community is losing. The New Priorities Network, with which this blog is allied, believes it's time to drastically change that. We hope you agree and will share your thoughts with your Congressman (202-224-3121) and your local editor. Do it for Willie.
