GOP this week: "we all love and cherish Dolly!" GOP when it came time to fund her literacy program: "no money for books - only bombs!" 🤬

Weird how it’s one party trying to defund it and “celebrate” her at the same time. You should point that out, maybe..

Weird why the GOP doesn’t want kids to read. It’s a mystery. 🙄

Dolly took the Good Book personally and seriously. And extended her beliefs in the tangible distribution of books to those among us who would not otherwise be able to access books. This kindness and charity are among the highlights in her final chapter.
