Hungry Children
Two adjacent articles in The Times illustrate why the public is fed up with politics and politicians (April 7). A survey found that 2 million children suffered from hunger daily. Gov. Pete Wilson has his political priorities straight, however. He is spending his time eliminating affirmative action panels.

On the same day that Newt Gingrich announces his bonus for the special interests and the privileged, we learn that 2 million children in California, the richest state in the union, are suffering from hunger. And now with prospective cutbacks in school lunches, those Republican ghouls will remove what little is left on the plate. What a mockery!
We should remember that when all the posturing is over, we will be judged by how we treat the weakest among us.
