I think you are probably right about that. But why shouldn't a church donation count? If a guy makes $100,000 a year and he gives $2,500 to a church and an additional $2,500 to other charities, that is a total of $5,000. I think you should count the whole $5,000. Any way you look at it, the guy gave away $5,000.

It's the endgame that counts, which probably screws us both. To tell you the truth, I enjoy the Left-Right debate, but at some point..and perhaps the charity donation tally is the line in the sand...you can't make everything political.

Overall, Catholics are probably the Christians that most pay attention to what Christ said about the poor. Unfortunately, there are Conservative Catholics (like Alan Keyes etc.) that ignore it.

See, Progressives don't hate the Government, and they expect the Gov't to do a lot of necessary things with their tax money. They expect Gov't to do almost all these things that charities do (but the Conservatives won't let the Gov't do it.) For instance, we believe in a National Healthcare system to take care of kids with cancer. You want to send a few "deserving" kids to ST. JUDES in Memphis. We see that as your attempt to judge which poor people are deserving. That really is the difference here. Progressives aren't as interested in judging people who are poor. Private charities are often a way for Conservatives to be hyper judgemental with the money spent on the poor. I think this http://spcala.com/aboutUs/everyname.shtml is the type of charity that Progressives tend to favor. It's the one I support. That, and I feed n' vet a couple of pretty useless mutts. One is def. a charity case. Those are always microchipped, cuz they don't want them coming back.

Pretty typical A's Fan. They should do something useful with that top section of that stadium. It's seems to always have that big green tarp on it.

LOL...I think she's Half Turk / Half Chinese.

She knows 5 words, but she's pretty good with those 5 ("YOU ARE STUPEA! FUKKIE YU! ")

Sounds sort of like a chicken farm...Left karate Chop at 1:52 goes into The Cheap shot HOF.

Wanda Sykes featured this video on a segment of her show entitled "Todays Bad Moment in Black History." In her usual dry wit, she noted "at least he got his ass kicked on the front of the bus."



Holy sh*t...did I just admit to watching Wanda Sykes? Is this what my life has been reduced to?

Little? He can't go more than like 10 words before he starts combining stories, or enhancing.
