Ideally, you should try to use description tags which are unique and related to your web page... otherwise it won't hurt your rankings to use same description tags for your similar websites.

Hi,
As per my knowledge, using same content for a website will fall under duplicate content issue and whenever it caught by search engine it is considered as spamming. So try to avoid it and use unique content for your site.

You can not get benefits of description if you have duplicate content in your description tag. For getting maximum of your efforts, You may sure step ahead for fresh and targeted description.

you cant use same description for your similar site because according to google webmaster's guidelines each page should have different set of meta tags. If you use same meta tags for your similar site , you will not get benefited of using description tag

I too had been wondering lately whether it was possible for us to use the same description tag on other sites. After all, it would make the task really easy. However, later on I learned that we cannot do so since it would create the issue of duplicity.

Don't do this. Ideally, you should use unique description for different sites. If you use the same description then it will really look artificial to search engines.

Don't do that. It harmful to your site to rank. Search consider it as duplicate content. Unique description may help you to get traffic as well as improve the ranking.

HI.
No you cannot use same descriptive tag because it will lead to duplicate tag and in case if Google finds it, your site will be blocked or it will call as a spam site. Better to use unique and original tag on your site, if you want to have high page rank of your site.
