democrat/liberals why do you demand?

Question

democrat/liberals why do you demand that the american people provide for the worlds poor,when their own governments,country,people will do nothing for their own people?

Answer 1

As a Democrat, I have NEVER demanded we help some other country before helping our OWN citizens.

Foreign Aid comes from REPUBLICANS, not Democrats. For the last 6 years, with a Republican President, a Republican Congress and a Republican-stacked Supreme Court, if this was such a big deal to you and other Republicans, WHY DIDN'T THEY STOP SENDING FOREIGN AID TO OTHER COUNTRIES?

When you ask "questions" such as this, which are nothing more than thinly disguised put downs of the other politcial party, you're just showing you will stand up and be counted with the Enemies of Freedom.

Consider this:

Was it terorists who force us to wear paper slippers at the airport? Or take our lighters and matches? Is it terrorists who keep our Ridiculous "Threat Board" at "Elevated" even though the whole reason we have all those troops in Oilraq is so "we won't have to fight them here"- If true, why isnt the Board at GREEN? If the threat IS actually elevated, then it's obvious the troops in Oilraq aren't there to protect US, so bring them home. If indeed we have nothing to worry about HERE as long as the troops are THERE, the JFK fuel line plot musta just been a college prank, right?

Logic: It's like garlic to a Republican Vampire.

Answer 2

The democrats know their constituents. The Urban poor normally vote democrat, and are the people who benefit most from these kinds of programs in the US. Since they benefit from them in the US they would support these kinds of programs in other parts of the world.
