From Rightwingnews: All the Occupy movement starts with the premise that we owe them everything. They take over a public park they didn’t pay for, to go nearby to use bathrooms they didn’t pay for, to beg for food from places they don’t want to pay for, to obstruct those who are going to work to pay the taxes to sustain the bathrooms and to sustain the park, so they can self-righteously explain they are the paragons of virtue to which we owe everything. That is a pretty good symptom of how much the left has collapsed as a moral system in this country, and why you need to reassert something by saying to them, ‘Go get a job right after you take a bath

Take those God-darn hoodies down, especially in the summer. Pull your pants up and buy a belt ‘cause no one wants to see your underwear or the crack of your butt. If you walk into somebody’s office with your hair uncombed and a pick in the back, and your shoes untied, and your pants half down, tattoos up and down your arms and on your neck, and you wonder why somebody won’t hire you? They don’t hire you ‘cause you look like you’re crazy. You have damaged your own race.

Dan, I get it. I get the objections to the whining. I get the objections to the hippies, the "you got yours, where is mine" cries."
ReplyDeleteBut when you find out that the Wal-Mart heirs (what are they 6 or 8 rugrats?) have the same wealth as the bottom 30% of America. . .80+ million people? That's a startling, crazy, upside-down-world. And what did the Walton kids do, except win the genetic lottery? REALLY?
All I'm asking is WHY is the GOP on the side of the Wal-Mart heirs, more than they are the side of Joe American? Why?
Well, ask Hillary Clinton who used to be on Wal-Mart board of directors about this.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Dem's aren't on the side of Wall Street? Ask John Corzine about that.
Both sides are guilty about protecting the rich. They just do it different ways.
Oh yes, there are corrupt and bought Democrats. But I'm not buying the "they're all the same" argument any more. There is a vast, vast difference between what I keep seeing on that debate stage, and the current administration. Barack Obama has done some good stuff, some bad stuff, some in-between stuff. But he's not batshit crazy, and he's not trying to out-mean other people. There is a streak of meanness in the GOP that is very distasteful.
