Did the RNC website or the freepers ever post a banner to help
the victims of Katrina? I remember a couple of days after it hit, they still hadn't. I hate to go to their sites myself, especially the FREEPER one.:puke: I just had a nice lunch and want to keep it down.

If the RNC website doesn't have this, I think all Dems should scream about it on the talk shows. Yeah, I know... that would be mean-spirited, just like calling * out on his lies. :sarcasm:

Anyone know if any repukes are even interested in giving lip service to help poor, working people who are starving and dying in the streets of our great country?

2. The Freepers have a clickable
red Support text at the top of their webpage, but it is not a banner like DU has.

3. Some individual Freepers did
Times like these separate the psychos from the merely confused.

I didn't notice whether Jim-Rob put up a banner. You could always go over there and check.

--p!

4. You're kidding, right?
The official party line over at that nausea-inducing site is: "Fuck 'em. They all stayed behind to collect their welfare cheques. They deserved it. They had it coming."

That's why I thought you were kidding. In case you haven't noticed, freepTards are, without a doubt, the absolute worst scum America has on display; I actually direct/link friends and family in Europe to their website, so they can have a look first hand (from a sociological/anthropological bent) just what good Americans are up against. And yes. On first viewing, they loose their lunch. Then, the shock sets in...

5. Iknow they're not interested in really helping
anyone but themselves. However, I thought that several DAYS after the event, they may want to make it LOOK like they were interested in helping. It would be a mere PR gesture if it happened. And it seems that it did happen, according to a post upthread. Of course, it means nothing. I'm sure they're not interested and precious few are clicking on the option to help.

7. Yup. The other posters are right.
There is a little clickable button for donations. Shall I get on my knees and apologize to them for spreading disinformation?:)

I really don't give a fuck. Their words speak much louder than a gratuitous little button...

6. I think it's a pretty telling sign about how American they truly are.
They beat their chests to the beat of "America Love it or Leave it", but when a real crises comes up that doesn't involve bombing some other country to shit they bring out the same sorry excuses showing just how selfish they really are.
