OUTRAGE! Why don't Beck & Limbaugh use their resources to...  

And you know they don't do charitable work or donating how? Not everyone who does charity does so with or for public recognition...or to make a political point like Olberman did with his healtcare clinics. Unfair assumption you say on that last one? No worse than assuming unfairly that Beck and Limbaugh don't do charity wouldn't you say?

Maybe they don't do it because to do so would mean acknowledging there are people in this country who are HURTING bad and it's not their own fault. Their talking points about how we have the "best health care in the world" (that's not the problem!) and that "all anyone without insurance needs to do is go to the ER" would lose credibility! It's SOOO much better for them to keep on saying those who are in trouble are lazy, stupid and just not worthy of any help if they can't help themselves!

They do charity work...they just don't use it on their shows to say "hey look at me, look what I did, I am soo great".
People in this coutry KNOW there are charity groups out there. They know there are people who need help. They are not dumb. But charity is a choice. You can either choose to do it or not.
I can tell you right now that I won't go out and do charity work just because Rush, Beck, Obama or anyone else "tells" me to. It is a personal choice.
I will either do it because I want to do it...or I won't.
Personally I get sick of all those celebrities bragging and rubbing peoples noses in their charity work. They are only doing it for that purpose and not to really help the needy. The ones who do charity work and then not make a big deal about it are the ones that are doing for the right reasons. They are actually doing to help other people instead of just ot make themselves look good.

I'm wondering, do you just make crap up as you go along? Do you have ANY idea how much Rush Limbaugh gives to charity? Do you have any idea what charities he promotes and how often he promotes them on his show? Or, and I'm pretty sure we both know this is true, do you just ASSUME he's a generic fat greedy republican who doesn't care about anyone but himself and NEVER gives to charity?

Tell you what, spend about ten seconds doing research on something like this before making a fool of yourself.

I don't watch or listen to either one of them, but it only took me 5 seconds to find this.

"So the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation, it's now official, is going to get in excess of $4.2 million because I am matching Betty Casey's bid on eBay -- $4.2 million. I asked Senator Reid to match and all the other senators who can afford to do so. I haven't heard from them on that."

They are helping the poor. The poor that don't benefit from government subsidies. The working poor that are struggling to pay bills against a Government that is throwing us deeper in debt everyday. The poor who are barely squeaking by on a mix of credit cards and odd jobs. The poor who are getting poorer every single day that goes by and thinks about what their children face. These poor have a name it is "The Middle Class" Americans.

In fact, where is the question about President Obama taking care of his own aunt. She is poor, living in public housing and probably on food stamps. Where is the answer to the answer to that question? Surely, the President has some influence to at the very least send her a couple of bucks for groceries or something. If you are going to ask that question about Beck and Limbaugh why aren't you asking the same thing about someone with way more power, President Obama?

Fox's News in general donated a great deal of money to Haiti,on their site they have secure places to donate to the people of Haiti.
All precessed on Bill O'Reily goes to charity,Sean Hannity donates millions every year to the children of falling soliders from his very poplar always sold out Hannity's's American.
Glen Beck has a child with a birth defect and I'm certain he has give millions to the cause because it very near and dear to his heart.
Maybe it would be a good idea for Mrs Obama to take up the cause of help to the poor and the needy,well first her and Mr Obama would have to starting supporting his illegal Kenya aunt who lives in Boston on public assistant and has for a number of years,what to still talk down Glen Beck and Rush Limbaugh?

Oh I think Rush is getting people to the tea parties -- but it's the racist element he's sending there lol. Have you ever heard recordings of some of those yayhoos in "casual" conversation? I believe Beck and Limbaugh feel it's their personal mission to stir up as much hate as they can and damn the consequences. In my opinion, neither is out to do good.

Interesting to see how you ran from your own discussion when your claims were challenged. Do you every watch or listen to Beck or Limbaugh? Do you KNOW that they aren't promoting charities or are you just assuming that because you disagree with their politics?
