If you had any brains, Justwait, you'd be in contact with these sorts of

But...you don't have any brains.

Yeah, just as ALL clergy are lobbyists. Even pedophile Catholic
Priests, when they aren't otherwise occupied are lobbyists. So is the
Pope.

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

They're an outgrowth of settlement houses.

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

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

Harry, we have all heard it many times, but maybe he forgot, tell him
how your devote half of you and your Dr. Dr.'s time to providing your
services pro bono to the poor. Now I don't know what the poor are going
to do with cut and pasted articles posted in rec.boats, but I am sure
the local authorities would be concerned if they knew a social worker
was providing medical treatment to the poor. What does her employers
think about her spending half of her time pretending to be a doctor when
they pay her a salary to provide social services to the union members?
It really seems that she is stealing from her employer when she pretends
to be a doctor, doesn't it? Ahhhh what the heck, it is for the poor and
children.

You sure proved him wrong didn't you.

Good question. As he doesn't have me filtered, this will give him a chance
to reply.
