I was looking forward to reading the article in the WSJ, but was very disappointed in the message it gave. I know first hand the hard work and dedication to promoting social and economic justice that Chris and Jody devote their lives to every day. And for all the right reasons that you mentioned. Thanks for taking the time to set the record straight. Maybe the WSJ should print your response to their article! Thanks, Chris, for expressing my feelings exactly.
