You’re quite wrong that Republicans hate charity. Here are just a few stats to back up the fact that conservatives are far more charitable than liberals.

My post was meant as a farcicle presentation of the democrats view of conservatives, but emphasizing how some of the posts here play into the democratic point of view. More unfortunately, two many folks here don’t have antennae for sarcasm, even when you put a sarcasm tag on something. Of course conservatives are charitable, at least the ones I would call conservative.
