Soup Kitchen In Paul Ryan Photo-Op Faces Donor Backlash
I doubt Ryan cares one whit about hungry people but look what he did to this place -
If you think that people should not be hungry just because smarmy LyinRyan got caught in another lie, you can send a few bucks to this address. I know that I sure as hell will.

Ryan may have suffered a few late-night jokes, but the fallout for the soup kitchen appears to be far more bruising. Brian J. Antal, president of the Mahoning County St. Vincent De Paul Society, confirmed that donors have begun an exodus in protest over Ryan's embarrassment. The monetary losses have been big. "It appears to be a substantial amount," Antal said. "You can rest assured there has been a substantial backlash."

"Honesty, I really don't need any more attention," he said. "I really just want this to go away."
Antal said doesn't understand why donors would take out their frustration over the incident on those who can't afford to pay for their own meals. "I'm a volunteer,' he said. "I receive zero compensation. Withholding donations is only going to hurt the over 100,000 we serve annually."
