I guess you just like giving away our hard-earned tax dollars....not your own money. Hypocrites.

PS-What did you libs finally decide to do with all the homeless in Denver for the convention? Last I heard you were rounding them up and sending them to the movies?? Or was it the zoo? While you're at it, you should get them registered to vote.

Answer 1

I for one hardly give out to charities because more than half of what I pay goes into the pockets of those who own them. The risk is too great for me to send a dollar to a child in Africa and only a quarter is given to them.  

Answer 2

Lol... What are we supposed to give? Do you apparently not pay any bills? I do have a life you know. Money doesn't solve anything. Where were you when I needed you? I was poor and homeless, I had to live with a psychotic grandmother with a shunt in her head. Where were you? Where were your charities then? Oh, wait... you can only get charity if you are religious... and those freaks with the bells take more than they give. If you disagree, take a wander inside their office and meet some of the people living there. Ask them how much they give in their paycheck every week...

this whole country is a fvcking cash crop and if you don't see that, republican or democrat, you're a fvcking idiot.

Thanks, guy. We should all really be on the same page on this.

Answer 3

Good point.  They say they care so much, when they do nothing for the less fortunate.  Liberals are all talk....that's it.  Conservatives don't talk about it, they do it.

Answer 4

If conservatives are so concerned about the war in Iraq, why aren't they willing to pay for it?

Well Patroon, you need to think again. For the second time in American history(the Revolution was the first) the US is financing a major war only by incuring long term debt. Your grandchildren will pay for this war.

Don't get me wrong and think I just blame the republicans for this. The democrats share the blame. Our politicians are so afraid of the word "taxes" and so afraid of "being weak on terrorism" and so sure that the American people can't comprehend the repucussions of 7 trillion dollars of debt that they are willing to mortgage our future.

Answer 5

I guess polls are good when they talk good about you. Charities are permitted to discriminate, the government can't.

Answer 6

because the liberals want to do it with your money. much easier to show their true concern with your tax dollars.

Answer 7

Ditto head.

Answer 8

Leftists legislate property away from productive people to give to others for the "common good".  They pat themselves on the back for such "compassionate" acts, and I'm sure they put feathers in their caps for a job well done.  They don't grasp the concept that to be "compassionate" it has to be voluntary.

Answer 9

They are giving them (the Denver homeless) free haircuts. And I think they were offered tickets to the museums as well. A mind is a terrible thing to waste, you know.

Now THAT is really helping them out! THANKS DEMOCRATS!
