Good Old American Goodness: Donate to Help Rebuild Natalie Dubose's Cakes & More in Ferguson November 26, 2014

11/27/2014


RUSH:  Okay, I'm gonna go ahead and give the link.  If you would like to donate to Natalie Dubose, it'sGoFundMe.com/NataliesCakesNMore. Now, what's happening here, it's up to $101,000 right now, and there are a lot of Tea Party sites that are promoting fundraising for her -- you know, these evil racist Republicans?  Yeah.  Yeah, Tea Party types.  Oh, you know those.  I mean, school shooter types, yeah, yeah, Brian Ross, yeah. These evil, mean-spirited Tea Party types.  Yeah, yeah, yeah. The Tea Party wasn't in Ferguson, by the way.  The Tea Party didn't torch a thing. The Tea Party didn't blow up any at any point in time, didn't aim gunfire at anybody. The Tea Party was not there when Ferguson was victimized by barbaric behavior.  Natalie's CakesnMore.  Gofundme.com.  You'll find it there.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I gave out the Web address, if you wanted to donate a little bit of money to Natalie Dubose, whose cake store was destroyed in the riots in Ferguson, Missouri, this week.  It's gofundme.com/NataliesCakesnMore. And apparently a number of you have found your way to that website and have made some donations, and I just want to thank you.
I'll tell you what you're doing.  There are a lot of people -- and I'm not exaggerating this -- there are a lot of people right now wondering what's happening to the country, wondering if there's any goodness left, because the news every day is all about everything going wrong and everything being undermined and, gosh, is this being sabotaged, is that being corrupted.  And here's some good, old-fashioned just decent American goodness that is taking place right before our eyes.
A poor woman saved up everything to open her cake store in Ferguson.  She's African-American and she had nothing to do with any of this that went down, but her store got destroyed.  So people set up a couple of Web links for Americans to donate to give her a chance to rebuild. I don't even know if she had anything to do with it.  I think others set it up for her.  Not sure about that. 
Anyway, so many of you are coming through on this that it's really heartwarming to see.  Did you go check it out?  I had a couple people tell me that a lot of you are logging in and donating.  I think it's great, and you're renewing people's faith, or you're solidifying it in some cases, which is also what I want to do later in the program with the true story of Thanksgiving.
