M.A.P. may not have the cleanest books around. I doubt if many non-profits have the expertise necessary for good bookeeping.

What I wanted to point out with my post is simply Emnmer’s choice to target M.A.P. I would put money on the table that he never looked into the literature being distributed from other organizations that receive state money.

I’m a straight guy who has helped raise money in the past for MAP. MAP has been an important service provider in the past. But nothing puts MAP above being responsible to the poeple they serve. This is even more critical when it involves taxpayer money.

Let me know if you would like to publish the letter to clear up any ambiguities your blog is perpetuating by not having the facts.

“There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance—that principle is contempt prior to investigation.”

—Herbert Spencer

I hope the money stays and this is just political bluff to rally the people for another election or for popularity, and if it isn’t, I hope they’re able to make up for it in donations. Keep us posted! I don’t have much extra these days but I can give a little!
