They moan endlessly on USMB about the plight of the poor or others they classify as being used by others.
The pissing & moaning is near round the clock. Do they get off their asses and work the food bank or soup kitchen or homeless shelter? Do the give to the above mentioned institutions? Or does their time and money only goto their political agenda? Or worse yet do they do nothing at all and just sit in front of their computers blaming everyone else all the while doing NOTHING to correct the perceived wrongs?
Personally I give to the food pantry with near every grocery purchase through a program with our local food store chain. A food store I'm sure is owned by a dastardly one percenter.
One in my family, one of kinder disposition than I, volunteers one day a week at a local food bank.
This gentle person (softie, I opine) observes that the volunteer workers are almost exclusively conservative whilst the customers are all liberals.
Of course just an observation in one small community but might there be others amongst us who have direct knowledge of the ratio in their area?
I found the same thing on Habitat for Humanity projects in 14 years of two weeks per year in my involvement.
Not a liberal/Democrat in sight, but on one occasion in Florida I saw Jimmy Carter appearing for a photo op. Swing somebody else's hammer, maybe twice, have picture with that famous smile and then vamoose, like a typical Democrat.

How wonderful of you, but beware of posting your righteousness on message boards the good book says, else you won't be rewarded later on in heaven, or something like that.
Most expect the 'giving' (more like taking) to come from those they vilify... the liberal elites already have it, don't earn true income, and THEN they call on the highest earners to 'give' more into the inefficient and corrupt system
Me... I give meat from hunting to the soup kitchen in Frederick... I give away most of the veggies I grow in my yard... my wife and I give food, clothing, and money to the battered women shelter, as she was a battered wife in her first marriage... but we have to give less thank before to other charities because (you guessed it) our tax burden has gone up because the entitlements and handouts thru government have gone up... and funny how the increased entitlement spending leaves us with not less, but MORE people and more of a % of people on the government dole... it is trickle up poverty, thanks to liberal policy, at it's finest

Looks like you were waiting for an opportunity to brag about what wonderful things you did for humanity two weeks a year.
Did you know that when I said Barry, I wasn't referring to Maine? I was referring to the federal government.Here's a clue, Einstein. When people accept old food, take it home and eat it, it is not unwanted.Conservatives hand them old, unwanted food.
Liberals will put them through job training. As long as Conservatives don't block it:
Senate Republicans blocked legislation Wednesday that would have established a $1 billion jobs program putting veterans back to work tending to the country's federal lands and bolstering local police and fire departments.
And you better tell your buddy Barry that he made a mistake when he eliminated the work requirement for you and your welfare roommates.

The good book?
Whatever dude. I don't fall for that crap but I DO believe in actually helping others rather than just bullshitting about it.
I see that most of the loudest complainers on here are on here so much that actually helping is a physical impossibility.

Ron interprets with wooden literalism (wouldn't that make him a young-earth creationist and an Originalist i.e., a conservative), and you don't interpret.
HHS announced that states can propose pilot programs, which can include changes to how qualified welfare recipients are counted. If HHS approves a states program, it will grant a waiver from federal work-activity requirements. For instance, HHS suggests, states could propose projects that demonstrate superior employment outcomes if work-activity participation rate requirements are dropped and replaced by other measurements of employment outcome.

You just can't stand when people put their money where their mouth is huh. A foreign concept to you apparently.
Bottom line you can't piss n moan about "righties" being selfish then condemn them when they prove you wrong.
Your hatred for the right is best kept in the dark where reality isnt exposed
My mistake. Barry has been claiming authority to waive work requirements.Did you know that when I said Barry, I wasn't referring to Maine? I was referring to the federal government.

I am a liberal and donate yet you still consider liberals to not put their money where their mouth is, even my 84 year old liberal mother in law donates her time at a soup kitchen at her church, damn your myopic B.S.

Who made the largest charitable donation in the history of the world? Warren Buffett, a liberal, when he decided to give 83% of his wealth away to the Gates Foundation. He had been worth $62 billion up to that point and was comfortably ranked as the #1 wealthiest American. He's no longer in the top spot anymore because a third of his wealth has been given away according to his plan on giving away pretty much everything to charitable organizations.
I don't see the Koch Brothers doing that anytime soon.
What bullshit
Liberals dont pay taxes , but say theyre not high enough
liberals want us to live in small house, they live in mansions
they want us to use no electricity yet they uee a ton in those mansions
they want us to use electric cars, yet they jet around and use hummer limos
they want us tomeat healthy, yet they can eat anything
they bitch about the poor, yet they suck at tipping
they bitch about helping others, nut most give squat to charity
i think you get the point

They moan endlessly on USMB about the plight of the poor or others they classify as being used by others.
The pissing & moaning is near round the clock. Do they get off their asses and work the food bank or soup kitchen or homeless shelter? Do the give to the above mentioned institutions? Or does their time and money only goto their political agenda? Or worse yet do they do nothing at all and just sit in front of their computers blaming everyone else all the while doing NOTHING to correct the perceived wrongs?
Personally I give to the food pantry with near every grocery purchase through a program with our local food store chain. A food store I'm sure is owned by a dastardly one percenter.

USMB leftists preach a desire to march all who disagree with the goals of the party into death camps.
Would RDean, RDD, and Closed_Caption practice that?
