Too bad Dr. Gosnell and your mom didn't meet.
And we think this way: "Go out and get a job." You want to reward bad behavior. How are those work requirements to get your welfare check? Oh yea, the Commie in Chief removed them.
Yeah, it really looked like the Obama phone lady was interested in getting off welfare when she's bragging about the Idol in Chief giving her a free phone. How are those work requirements for welfare working out? Oh yeah, the Giver in Chief removed them.
You call us morons? I live in the Central Coast of California. How is this state doing? The left has been in charge of this state for, not 1 year or 2 years, but since the 70's. The EU is run by the left. How are they doing? You must be the moron if you can't see the numbers and know we are bankrupting the country by spending and spending on things the government shouldn't even be doing. Just have Bernake keep printing the money, let the unemployment rate fall as more and more people stop looking for work. Who's reallly the moron?
We should be clear on adding to the deficit: the GAO's figure of $6.2 trillion does not include the millions of illegals who will jump on the dolls once they are granted amnesty by this administration. I work in health care at a senior level. Most people have zero understanding of how we are paid and the continual decline for physician reimbursement Ask your health care provider what it costs to be seen. The problem in health care is not because we have too little government involvement, but too much, that results in over-utilization of services because patients are insulated from the real cost of their care. Read John Goodman's book, "Priceless."

Those institutions, while Catholic based, are not the "church." I am not a Roman Catholic. I find it so interesting when people somehow suggest that Catholics or Christians can't be rich (Read the Parable of the Talents in Matthew 25). God is the one who bestows people with their abilities, whether athletic, intellecual or other and expects us to use those gifts to further the Great Commission, which each of the organizations does in their own way. Money is not the root of all evil: the love of money is.
The biggest cause of poverty in Amercia today is having children out of wedlock. Single parent households comprise the largest group of people dependent on government assistance. Couple single parent households with a broken education system and high drop out rates, especially among children of color, and the results are easily understood. Frederick Douglas, a freed slave, said, "Knowledge makes a man unfit to be a slave." The "poor" in America have opportunity to education and social programs most of the world poor could only dream of. Poverty today is a result of misdirected priorities and a sense of entitlement, not conservative bigotry.
The War on Poverty has wrought destruction on the black community, including the creation of baby daddies instead of fathers, a community that graduates approximately 50% of its male population from high school (in a 21st Century economy that is not good news) and 80% of its children are born out of wedlock (the leading cause of poverty). Maybe the Clarence Thomas' Condoleeza Rice's, Thomas Sowell's or RGIII's don't represent the black community . Instead, we have the Al Sharpton's, Jeremiah Wright's and Harris Perry's of the world. And the black community is worse of because of it.

If the left took the time to actual study history rather than try to recreate it, they would have seen how FDR's policies only exacerbated the Great Depression rather than end it. Jim Powell's book "FDR's Folly" clearly details and obliterates the left's understanding of big government spurning the economic engines of this country.
One more thing: take the time to educate oneself and read the Federalist Papers. The most cogent argument for our exceptionalism, and the direct, unfiltered explanation on what the Founder's had in mind when the met in Philadelphia. Those principles are not relics of a bygone era. Truth is not limited to the past and those of us who believe such things must never hesitate to have a response to the left and thier empty chair arguments (as we saw with the trouncing of President Obama by Mitt Romney).
