How big a "War Chest" do you want to see Crawford Peace House accumulate?

How much extra money do you hope they raise to oppose Shrub before the spotlight leaves Crawford and moves on to DC? They have raised enough to have paid off the mortgage (but have not.)

2. They will get a gift from my wife and I, every year, from henceforth.

Peace.

3. Please don't call it a 'war chest' even with the quotes.

It is a Peace House.

4. Well, it is a "term of art"

Somehow "Struggle Chest" does not quite seem right.

5. Maybe the Peace Bank.

6. It may be a phrase that is used in a variety of ways but

I don't believe it's appropriate for a group whose goal is Peace.

Contradictory?

Just my 2 cents.:shrug:

7. Well, my language...

not theirs.

And English is full of such contradictory uses.

We could rationalize English, but then we'd be speaking Esperanto.

8. It's an expression.

Get over yourself.
