Disabled doesn't mean unable

I was ecstatic to hear this:
Goodwill Industries' workforce division will be assisting in the assembly of the prominent media and delegate bags to be distributed by the Denver 2008 Convention Host Committee. Goodwill will have workers with physical and mental disabilities assisting in the assembly and packaging of the 20,000 bags needed for the Democratic National Convention at Goodwill's headquarters in North Denver.
So many physically and mentally disabled are discriminated against and not allowed to work. But, seriously, they are just as capable at doing certain things as we are.
