Thoughts of the week

I am sorry I have not posted much lately, but it is hunting season and construction work is leveling off for the year.

I have to say that Obama has done an awesome job getting those jobs saved and the stimulus money to the local governments. 

What did they do with the money?  Saved government jobs and plugged budget holes with it.

10% unemployment and still on the rise!

The stock market is doing good so my 401k is getting back up.

We now hear that the money we gave GM, we might not get back!

Obama is just so concerned not to jump to conclusions on the shooting at Fort Hood since a Muslim was involved.

Obama is very quick to judge non Muslims.  Don't judge a jihadist.

Does Obama mean like Obama himself jumped to conclusions after his little Marxist professor buddy was arrested?

Obama and his ilk (Sharpton, Jesse Jakcson, et al) sure jumped to conclusions to condemn and convict the Duke Univ. students whom they were SOOO sure raped that black woman. Wrong again.

Oh no, he only jump to conclusions when it comes to white cops.  If this is a white guy did the shooting, the press and Obama will be all over it.

Don’t jump to conclusion that Obama is a Muslim.

Democrats Turn Aggressive on Capitol Hill Against Protestors

As one reader commented to the above, “Now you know how you will be treated when you dispute a health insurance claim under a Government run Health Insurance Plan.”

This is for all the "victims" out there.

President Obama, Democrats, and liberals like to promote an ideology of "victimhood."  That is, a sense that for all the poor and downtrodden, someone or something has created their situation.  They are not to be blamed. They are not responsible for the quandary they find themselves in.  It is someone else's fault.  And such people, who have been held down by others - are victims.  Therefore, they are "entitled" to be supported by the rest of us via taxes...taxes...and more taxes.

 There is NO personal responsibility to be found in "victimhood."  Never mind that maybe someone  didn't finish high school.  Or had a baby (or two, or three) all in their teens with no father or husband in sight.  And don't mention that alcohol and drug abuse might have played a role in holding someone back.  Throw in a few criminal acts, poor work history, lack of responsibility, and you have a recipe for disaster.  Yet, the party of the "poor" - the Democrats - (we are always told it is the Democratic Party) - sure seems bent on continuing to enslave a segment of the populace.  When people buy into the suggestion that they are a "victim" and are not responsible for their own situations, they allow the government to take over.  They are beholden to the government.  The government becomes their caretaker.  They do not have to lift a finger and don't have much incentive to do so anyhow.  After all, if you could blame someone or something else for all your own problems, and the government provided everything for you - food, clothing, shelter, etc. , why bother trying to be responsible for yourself?  Generations have been brought up in this vicious cycle, and such a cycle continues to be the driving force behind the Democratic party.  Vote for them and they will provide!  They will take from the "haves" - who don't deserve to keep what they earned, and give to the "have nots."

Here's a video which was recommended viewing by Charlie Sykes, on WTMJ, a few weeks ago.  It speaks to the very notion of "victimhood."
