Reply #28: True. When they spend so much of their time attacking the poor, [View All]

blaming the poor for being poor,
and constantly race-baiting,
pushing racism as far as they think they can without being utterly blatant,
they certainly aren't about to suddenly do an about-face and do a fundraiser for poor black people.

I'm sure they do know their audience.

Racists aren't going to donate money to Haiti.

Believers in the prosperity gospel, and those who believe in blaming the poor for being poor aren't going to donate to the poor.

All the "America First" people who think all our money should be spent here, and the anti-immigration crowd who think we should close our borders aren't going to donate.

The tea-baggers seem terrified that someone else, someone unworthy, someone *gasp* probably poor and black will get something that they paid for somehow, so they won't support any money going to pay for anything. Not only wouldn't they donate, they'd find some way to convince themselves that your donation came out of their pockets too just so they could be outraged.
