When I became disabled, I had to cut back on my charitable giving, but there were still a few causes I would send a small amount to. One of them was an annual turkey drive — it provided free turkeys at Thanksgiving for the poor. I had a check made out for this turkey drive the other day, but I have voided it. It's unfortunate, but among the casualties of the Obama re-election will be the charities, many of which do a lot of good. Maybe that's part of Der Fuehrer’s plan all along. Nothing will be private. Everything, even charity, will be government controlled.

“Maybe that’s part of Der Fuehrer’s plan all along. Nothing will be private. Everything, even charity, will be government controlled.”

THAT is the issue, exactly!

its not the charities.....its the fact that WE the givers have been sabotaged because we are the workers, the producers, the volunteers, the law obedient,those who have tried to live somewhat morally and ethically, and donated to charity all the time.....

WE have been stabbed in the back...

so our response is that perhaps we'll just stop being the patsies anymore....

forget our charity....

squeeze your tax bill ...be inventive like others...

starve the economy....

and please, don't offer up your sons and dtrs to the military.....

WE'VE BEEN USED!!!!!

The problem is that most of the management of the non-religious charities - along with their Boards - are uniformly liberal (Red Cross, U Way, among many, many others).

Starve them, they’ll have to let employees go. Maybe a lesson liberals need to learn. Every dollar they receive is the result of productive labor that they deride and diminish. This must include begging letters from academia
There is no moral obligation to fund those who seek our destruction. Deny them the funds generated from a system they deem corrupt and immoral.
