Book Lover, I know you thought you'd found a home here on C-D after the Jackie Robinson movie thread, but you're about to find out how the rightwingers here loathe anyone who isn't them or Mitt Romney-rich.

There is no mercy.

BS. I posted a link to a PRIVATE charity that offers free eyeglasses. The difference is, this is a charity. The money is given voluntarily, not confiscated from taxpayers who have no choice.

And that difference makes ALL the difference to us right-wingers.

some free stuff i kinda understand. but a free phone? i dont care what party you side with, that is sick. i am not on welfare, but i tell you, i do not own a cell phone. it cost too much. why do people get free phones? i wonder how does a human species actually stoop to that level.

Once again: the "New Eyes for the Needy" organization is a PRIVATE CHARITY. It has nothing to do with the government, or with who happens to be in the White House.

Why do you have a problem with that? Do you also hate the Salvation Army, and all of the churches that do charitable work?

Uproarious. The Rebel Yell-ing about all the pot he smokes on the "cake" thread wants free eyeglasses.

Simple solution: stop buying pot and use that money for eyeglasses. Time to pull up the big-boy pants and realize there are priorities in life. If pot is your priority don't expect society to buy the essentials for you.

It means something to those of us right down the middle too.

Maybe it's for prophylaxis against glaucoma.

A. Not to Petch. ^^^^

B. You were whining about Medicaid, which is not a private charity. Is Medicaid OK when it's for you, but not for, you know, those leeches who only vote for Obama because of the color of his skin and to get free stuff (like glasses ...)?

C. I'm on your side in on the Medicaid thing, but you're too narrow-minded to get it.
