Look, Biden doesn't represent all Democrats... I know plenaty of truly generous liberals, and obviously there are conservatives who are cheapskates.

What bothers me is that despite the obvious fact that Biden is a world-class cheapskate, he sees nothing wrong with standing at a microphone and claiming that liberals have the moral high ground when it comes to charity. Not only is there zero poroof of that, there is considerable evidence that it's conservatives who give donate more money and time to charity than liberals. See this study, called Who Really Cares...here's a review of the study by abc news, which is not known to be a mouthpiece for conservatives.

Who Gives and Who Doesn't? - ABC News

America is the most generous country on Earth, and neither side has a monopoly on compassion. But you cannot watch MSNBC, on any night of the week, without hearing several hosts and guests talk about the fact that conservatives only care about rich people, and that liberals are the ones who care aboutthe little guy.
