We should oppose all efforts from non-profits and private actions
seeking to minimize the impact of the government shutdown. When private organizations step in to carry out functions of the government, it supports the right wing/libertarian frame of less government.

It also lessens the urgency of ending the shutdown.

I know these are well meaning people, but they are working against the Democratic position. The role and necessity of our government needs to be clear and obvious.

WOW, can't get any clearer than that  ...
Got to have nanny government or we can't survive. 
How dare any private organization think they can do the job of the government and actually succeed 

[JohnnyReb]

Good....then starve to death DUmmies.

[jtyangel]

WTF is the point of that unless you are interested in centralizing power to a few people at the top? Hey DUmmies, really think about what sense this does NOT make. Why, if a private enterprise CAN do it, should that be discouraged. Let me get your own greed involved here dummies--if less has to go through the gov isn't that more for your own pet projects? Some of you must see how silly this comment is?
There is absolutely no reason for that kind of thinking save for the fact that doing so is to protect an agenda. It's like shooting your own foot to advance a story that you have a limp. It's simply beyond reasonable.

I guess all of those privately run homeless shelters and food kitchens should close down because government is doing such a bang up job protecting and taking care of the homeless and the hungry.

[Freeper]

If the private sector does such a crappy job won't allowing them to try only prove how much we need government? I think the DUmmy is scared the private sector will show just how much better they do the job and prove that we don't need government.

She's giving a slap in the face to the Fisher House.  What a ****ing bitch. 

It must be government or nothing.  Everything within The State, nothing outside The State. 

**** you, commie piece of shit.

Don't belittle the government, they are building more bridges to nowhere for the homeless to live under.

At least they are putting a roof over their heads.

[franksolich]

This isn't anything new, though.

A couple, three, years ago, there was a primitive who offered that charitable giving and organizations shouldn't be allowed to exist, that only the government should be allowed to help people.

The campfire's here in the archives, but I have no idea for a search word to find it.

That would be a rhetorical question I believe.

DUmbasses think it will include their whiney asses though and it will not.

[BlueStateSaint]

I'm surprised that we haven't seen this kind of post before this, actually.  They need 'control' to validate their very existences, and every aspect of their pathetic, pitiful lives.  Any deviation must be eradicated (preferably as violently as possible, because no one would attempt to rise up against them again).

11. I am a big government democrat on social services.
I would much prefer aid come from the government. There should be zero need for charities is the US. The government has the ability and access to all the resources necessary to distribute to those in need.

Just when you think you have seen it all.  Then one of the DUmbasses opens their mouth with the dumbest crap.  Hey morningfog, from a vet who has escorted fallen friends, help console their families, and performed at their funerals **** YOU   .  You are worm dirt not even worthy to utter the names of these heroes, but a soldier defends the Constitution against all threats.  You are the type of idiot I wish the oath had an exemption clause.

Wife just called a few minutes ago. A friend's house burned to the ground last night. She lost everything except for one of her two dogs. The other couldn't be found. One was a black Schnauzer, the other was a miniature white Poodle. Wife and I will collect things she can use, and I'm sure others in our community will as well.

Her brother is going to bring a fifth-wheel camper over from Kansas for her to live in, but it'll take a couple of days. Meanwhile, I'm gonna collect some things around the house like kitchen utensils, etc. that she'll be able to use. A caring community will help her get back on her feet.

Dummies don't like private charities or friends/neighbors helping friends/neighbors? It's gotta be only the government, after the appropriate paperwork is filed and approved? No wonder all they get are vibes and bright light.

Gotta go now.

Exactly!

Seeing how almost all DUmbasses would be on the receiving end they know they must have a government extract resources by force to hand to them on demand.
Private charity measures by real needs not wants so it fails them.

**** you, commie piece of shit. 

Let me rephrase the OP: "We need to oppose anyone stepping in and providing funds to the families of Soldiers killed in action, as promised to the Soldiers themselves. Taking care of Soldiers and their families in their time of need and sorrow MUST be subordinate to OUR POLITICAL DESIRES."

This POS needs to be publicized as far and wide as possible. How many K&Rs did it get?

On a related note, Rep Joe Wilson has asked Chuck Hagel to answer just why the death gratuity was denied, when it's listed as one of the pays and allowances. The Pay Our Military Act authorized "all pays and allowances".

I can just see all the government signs.  Give to the poor, go to jail.

When we watch the government drop $600 million over a two year period on a non-functioning website that gets the same basic traffic as the Drudge Report. it just fills the heart with so much confidence in their abilities to fix everything.

Can we get Reagan's reincarnation now, please?

[Ptarmigan]

I rather have non-profits help the poor than the government.

I don't recall hearing about any hitches when W started up Medicare Part D.

That's probably because the media was covering up for W. Right?

No shit! She's complainin' about families who's son/daughter/husband/wife, is getting death benefits via a private charity because the O'bummer twit has shut it down in order to make them suffer for political gain.

This is a whole new low in the DUmp! I hope she gets buried in a paper sack and the Westburough Church is the master of ceremonies!

What a scrunt!

All I can remember about that was a "doughnut hole".  Whatever that was, or is it still there?

[delilahmused]

Aren't there plenty of charitable groups out there providing help to illegal aliens? I say, if Fisher House shouldn't help the group their charity was set up to support then your favorite groups should be held to the same standard. Fairness, DUmmie, remember? Supposedly that's what you're all about.
