Now we know.
Some of us knew. Those of you on the right who live lives full of
nothing but self-indulgence. well, we wouldn't expect you to know about
the miserable lives millions of Americans lead.

I guarantee I know a lot more about it than you have made up or
googled.

I'm sure you know a lot more -first hand- about a miserable life than I
do.


The community organizers
and organizations help them alleviate those miserable conditions.

As long as you fit the mold... or are willing to lie..

Did the community organizations also find it necessary to shove you?


They're an outgrowth of settlement houses.

But why would any of you wingnut turds know about those?

We do, more than you in most cases....



Prove it.


From a post by a community organizer, on what said organizers do: See:

I can't figure out why your post here didn't show on Gene's server, but
Harry's post, in which he calls those on the right 'wingnut turds', did.

Maybe because some of us have been busy working, or starting and operating
businesses, creating jobs, paying taxes, raising a family and otherwise
being constructive members of society.

Why do you ask?

Some of my "ancestors" were helped along by the community
organizers/settlement houses when they arrived in this country, and
unlike the Republican wingnuts, remembered that help once they made it
here and did their best to help those immigrants and others who followed
in their footsteps.

My great uncle on my father's side gave away just about all of the
fortune he made here to organizations that provide first-line help to
the needy. He was busy working, starting and operating a business,
paying taxes, and raising a family, and ended up owning a significant
chain of retail stores that operated from Maine to Atlantic City, and
spent his retirement giving away virtually every dollar of his assets.
When I graduated from high school (he never got to go to school),
instead of a fancy graduation gift, I got a very nice pen and pencil
set, an unabridged dictionary, and a letter from a charitable
organization telling me my great uncle had made a substantial donation
in my name. His children told me he did the same thing when they
graduated high school. He paid for their college, of course, but after
that, they were expected to make it on their own.

He was not a self-indulgent wingnut. Neither were his kids.

My mother was a first-generation American, and remembered the generosity
of her poor immigrant parents, even in the worst of times. Her father
ran a butcher shop in Boston. During the Depression, he made sure the
poorest families in his neighborhood didn't go hungry. When he died,
most of his estate went to charities. My mother was by no means wealthy,
but before she died, we worked out a plan that enabled her to make
substantial donations to a number of worthy organizations that help the
poor. Oh...my mother was a Republican, but an old style Republican, not
one of the modern, "I've got mine, so screw you" Republicans.

Over the many years I've been reading this newsgroup. I've not noticed
that very many of its wealthier participants ever mention what they do,
financially or otherwise, to help those who could use a little help.
Perhaps that is because most of those who post here are Republican
wingnuts.

That's why I ask.

The only person I have heard brag about what they do to help others is
you, and based upon the facts, it just isn't believable. I really think
if you have to talk about it, you probably aren't doing it. Sort of
like the virgins guys in high school who bragged about how much sex they
got. The smart guys NEVER talked about. The girls were more likely to
enjoy themselves if they didn't think they had to worry about the guy
bragging about it.

To be honest, I don't believe any of the stuff you just said.

I see. So, according to you, the wealthier participants of rec.boats, in
order to not be tagged as a self-indulgent, Republican wingnuts, are
expected to give a full disclosure of volunteer work, charitable
contributions and "causes" to which they are involved?

I think it's none of your business.

Full disclosure? Of course not. Not even partial disclosure. My guess is
that most of the Republican wingnuts here are not really involved in any
charitable work that helps the poorest of the poor.

A Southern guy I know well, one of you wingnut types, told me he donates
to his church, and that is his charitable activity. Does his church help
the poor? Nope. It builds buildings, pays high salaries to its
ministers, buys them fancy cars, and sends "missionaries" out to convert
Christians to...Christianity.

I just wonder from time to time what "the rich boys" here do other than
indulge themselves. It would be nice to know that some participants,
especially the wealthier retirees, are "involved" in helping those who
need a little help.

Perhaps because it's no ones business and inappropriate in a boating
newsgroup ?

Did I tell you I was just awarded the Mother Teresa Award for
Humanitarian Work among the poor and disadvantaged? My wife and I
contribute 75% of our time to pro bono work, we spend every Tuesday,
Thursday and Saturday cooking and feeding the homeless. I could go on
and tell you all I do, but it would probably bore you and I am such a
great humanitarian it would make everyone feel inadequate.

Oh what the hell, I also employee over 5000 people and I strictly hire
based upon need. We have been kept real business doing inspections and
maintenance work on bridges across the country. Beside that little
boo boo in a bridge in Minneapolis we have had very few errors.

I can not believer WAFA thinks everyone should post their resume of life
achievements and charitable work in rec.boats. Most people I know who
really do contribute their time, talents and treasures to charitable
causes DON"T talk about it.

Based upon WAFA's history of fabricating stories, I would guess he spent
less time doing charitable work as he spent on his Papa Parker. Based
upon his time spent posting in rec.boats, he really doesn't have time to
boat or do charity work.
