Brainwashing Vs. Good Values

  1. Let's see....what's the difference between good old fashioned common sense...like not stealing money from those who work hard to support their families and spending it on crap like, oh say....a teapot museum, and teaching kids it's ok to murder them before they are even born? Hmmmm....

  2. Not steal? Ha! They steal alright, they just give it to the ones that already have most of it anyway.

    And yes, the right is against abortion, but once the kid is born, they would just as well feed it to the wolves before help it out.

  3. We are not going to go in circles on this again. But I will state the obvious....the right gives a lot more freely of their own money. The left wants to take it away and decide who gets it. Hmmmm....

    Hand up....not hand out!

  4. A) The right already has more money, so I wonder how that adds up in proportional donations.

    B) The left doesn't discriminate in who gets the money. They will help people even if they are not white, heterosexual, conservatives.

  5. Where, on God's green earth, do you get your information????????????

  6. Look at the common recipients of donations from each group.

    The left will give to ecological (Greenpeace, Humane Society)ans such things.

    The right will give to Red Cross (always a bastion for up and coming and/or has-been Repub pols) or Boy Scouts (anti-gay).

    That is why my wife and I donate directly to the cause and not to one of these clearing house type of places.

  7. The phony "I give a happy crap, so do as I say!" groups don't do much for me. We give to St. Jude's, Le Boneur, and such. Let's see....helping sick kids - no matter what their color - and folks who would have your freeze to death. Hmmm....

    We don't give to the Red Cross. Prefer organizations that actually DO something to help those in need.

    The Boy Scouts? Jiminy Crickets. You have something against boys learning moral values?

  8. Intolerance and fear are not moral values.

    I agree with the Red Cross. To make it worse, they'll take your donation and still charge the people they are supposedly helping.

    There are plenty of neutral agencies that I think we both could agree on. Our main two are the Humane Society and the Cancer Society.

  9. Heh. Well, when it comes to critters, I try to find the organizations that don't euthanize. Unless it's peacocks? :P

    American Cancer Society? Yes and no. None too fond of their political agenda, but have been known to kick in a few bucks.

    Oh, and I'm not sure where you got the idea that the right has more money, unless you mean the right actually works for said money, instead of getting it from folks like Soros? Hmmm...

  10. Soros? LOL!

    He is a pauper compared to the CEO's of the oil companies, the pharma companies, etc.

  11. I'm guessing you didn't bother to watch any of those videos in the link I sent you.

  12. Not yet. I have to find the time today to. They sound like they may be funnies after all.

    And don't take it personally. I have about 70 emails and about a dozen vids backed up.

  13. Not offended, but I think you're going to be REAL surprised. They are ALL the same. :P And folks like you and I have been seriously suckered since 1974!

  14. I've always felt anonymnous giving is so much more rewarding. I don't need pats on the back and "huzzahs" unlike so many on the right. I'm sure you're a very giving person Kate, but I could care less who gives more.

    ReplyDelete
  15. FYI....the majority of our giving IS anonymous.

    ReplyDelete
  16. If I change my name to "anonymous," will you both give me some money? :)

    ReplyDelete
  17. Oh, I have a bag full of "contributions", just for YOU, capper! :P

  18. Yeah, yeah, I know. August. Yawn. ;)

  19. But I will state the obvious....the right gives a lot more freely of their own money.This is what I meant. They're also quicker to let everyone know how "good" they are.

  20. All you look at the last crop of candidates. It's public record.
