Why is it that after every disaster every conservative, from the leaders like Rush El Fatso Drug addict and the FoxNews morons, right on down to the lowliest dittohead, has to use the disaster to remind the world how much they hate helping people and how much they hate people who help other people???

All I've heard from conservatives since this Haiti earthquake are such reminders, such as:
- Rush Fat Drug addict telling his worshipers to not give money or help to Haiti
- mockery of Sean Penn, Bono, John Kerry, or anyone else who is a celebrity and has done charity work in the past
- attacks on Danny Glover as being a "doofus" for wanting to help Haiti
- attacks on President Obama for doing anything at all to help Haiti

But when these cons get their homes blown away by a tornado or hurricane or washed out in a flood, they are in front of the line at FEMA, standing there with both hands out, looking for someone else to do every little thing for them. They don't even stand on line literally, they drive their little scoot-about things like the ones they use at their favorite Walmart and they sit there, begging, "oh please give me money, give me give me give me!!!"

It just doesn't make sense; but it's clear they are very selfish and hate everyone other than themselves.

I am the one who poked fun at Sean Penn and John Kerry. The only flaw with your post is that I am NOT a conservative.

There is no such thing as charity.
They hate the poor.

If only you WORKED harder, ATE better, etc.

Last I checked, there are plenty of college educated people who are out a job and they didn't all get a worthless degree.

Plenty of people get diabetes, cancer, heart disease, etc. through no fault of their own.

Not every poor person is living high off the gov. Plenty of people go to bed starving and it's not because they spent their last time on a big screen tv or any other stupid scenarios some people manage to come up with to justify their bias against poor people.

Arthur Brooks, the author of a book on donors to charity, “Who Really Cares,” cites data that households headed by conservatives give 30 percent more to charity than households headed by liberals. A study by Google found an even greater disproportion: average annual contributions reported by conservatives were almost double those of liberals.

They generally don't but I think this whole Haiti thing sticks in their craw simply because a Democrat is doing something for the better of mankind and they totally crapped the bed when presented the same opportunity in the Gulf in 2006.
