* Seventy-one percent of conservatives say you have an obligation to care for a seriously injured spouse or parent versus less than half (46 percent) of liberals
* Conservatives have a better work ethic and are much less likely to call in sick than their liberal counterparts
* Liberals are two and a half times more likely to be resentful of others’ success and 50 percent more likely to be jealous of other people’s good luck
* Liberals are two times more likely to say it is ok to cheat the government out of welfare money you don’t deserve
* Conservatives are more likely than liberals to hug their children and “significantly more likely” to display positive nurturing emotions
* Liberals are less trusting of family members and much less likely to stay in touch with their parents
* Do you get satisfaction from putting someone else’s happiness ahead of your own? Fifty-five percent of conservatives said yes versus only 20 percent of liberals.http://current.com/community/93615781_liberals-are-less-hones...

-- Although liberal families' incomes average 6 percent higher than those of conservative families, conservative-headed households give, on average, 30 percent more to charity than the average liberal-headed household ($1,600 per year vs. $1,227).
-- Conservatives also donate more time and give more blood.
-- Residents of the states that voted for John Kerry in 2004 gave smaller percentages of their incomes to charity than did residents of states that voted for George Bush.
-- Bush carried 24 of the 25 states where charitable giving was above average.
-- In the 10 reddest states, in which Bush got more than 60 percent majorities, the average percentage of personal income donated to charity was 3.5. Residents of the bluest states, which gave Bush less than 40 percent, donated just 1.9 percent.
-- People who reject the idea that "government has a responsibility to reduce income inequality" give an average of four times more than people who accept that proposition.

Dispute that!
I credit Dennis Miller for expressing this sentiment better: "Why is it greed when I want to share the wealth I've earned with my family, but it isn't greed when people who didn't earn it want to take it from me and my family?"
When it comes to real work this is the biggest joke of all. Conservatives complain the most, do the least and miss more time from work. Most of them are smokers then this causes a whole new set of problems.
That's called an excuse, and in 90% of culture...it doesn't fly. So back to the topic at hand:

Yes I posted three links.
One to ABC 20/20 another to Real clear politics. and one to the NY times I believe.
I was once in an argument with a liberal; who accused me of being a cold hearted individual, because I saw no reason why the government should be involved in most social programs; when I pointed out that I was a foster parent, and he was not, it kind of flipped the tables on him.
BTW, I don't keep the money given to us by the state; I sign the check over to the kid; it's her money, not mine.
I was a member of Big Brothers and Big Sisters for twelve years. Until now I never mentioned it. Then you would never believe any good ever came from a liberal democrate. All you people ever do is hate.
Why do you believe that I don’t sign the money over to the kid?
Who’s really filled with hate here?
Signing money over to troubled children is not a wise move and you know it.
Four years of being a Cop in Utah with one year as a sex crimes investigator gave me pretty good insight on the ways of living around double standards.
She isn't troubled; her parents were; she's a good kid, and needs the money to support herself; car, car insurance, and such. She does well in school (3.8 GPA), is looking at more than one scholarship for college, and has avoided booze and drugs, since that's what screwed her folks up.
If your time here, has conditioned you into believing that everyone here, is a lying, no good, POS; then I would suggest you leave the site, and go get your head screwed down. Personally, I try: to judge a person by their actions and behavior, not make presumptive opinions of people, and not hold their personal lifestyle against them.
If helping this child is Gods calling for you then it is to be. Don't brag to me or your friends about it. Even after being a cop I continued to extend kindness and help others. Interesting learning point for me is when I became ill with cancer not a one of my so called republican friends called. These were the people that I had helped to get jobs, loaned money and knew the best. It was the religious christian type that not many people really liked and that maybe I had helped only once or twice are the ones who called. Alos republicans are the last ones to ever repay a loan if ever.
Sorry but you cannot tell me a republican christians are better people then liberal christians. REAL Christians don't make political preferences.
What I will say; is what I originally said:
In general, liberals believe all those functions, are better taken care of by the government, rather than the individual; which is why they feel, people should pay more taxes.
Since I am opposed to government, government power, and government interference with my life; I feel those actions are better taken care of by individuals. Once, when I was having a similar argument, face to face with an individual, he asked me; what I had done personally; I told him, I was a foster parent. His jaw also dropped; like you, he had difficulty believing that someone actually was willing to help a person, out of the kindness of their heart, and not for personal gain. It isn’t bragging as you suggest, it is simply stating a fact of what happened.
I have other examples of ways I have helped others out, and I don’t really care if people know or don’t know, I didn’t do them to gain praise, or to get a tax write off, I did and do things, because I saw that a person needed help, so I helped.
You bring up what republicans have done to you; in my experience, I have seen many democrats and liberals, more than happy to give money to the government to take care of these things...

You bring up what republicans have done to you; in my experience, I have seen many democrats and liberals, more than happy to give money to the government to take care of these things; yet when it comes to them doing something personally, they fall way short. To me, it seemed and seems like they are taking the easy way out, since it is much easier to just pay someone off, than to actually commit the work yourself.
There are problems with all political parties, with crazies in all of them.
It seems like both sides feed on "This side good, that side bad" and then go about putting down everyone from the opposing party for anything they do, and yet if someone from their own party did the same thing, they are given leniency. I've seen it too much for my liking. -.-
This is just 1 example of millions how liberals think. It's all about the individual to them.
LOL
And this does hold merit.
