Welfare mentality

[Steelharp]

Yesterday morning at church, pastor's wife and I were talking. Her daughter told her that last Wednesday morning, two of the black ladies in her office just walked in and quit.

"We don't need jobs now, Obama's gonna take care of us."

Somebody's in for a rude awakening; and I hope it's them and not us.

[BrasilNuts]

Who's gonna take care of them until he gets into office in Jan.?

I don't think we'll lack for interesting things to talk about for the next four years.

[Guest nraforlife]

And don't let the door hit you in the arse on the way out. Won't hire them back NOR give them a good reference when the time comes.

[323ssplt]

Just remeber, that half of all the people out there are below average.and that certainly applies to intelligence. Hence these two fine ladies, and all the people that voted for Obama...

[Guest justaman30]

Black people around me act and talk as if he is some sort of black messiah, despite the fact that he is NOT AFRICAN-AMERICAN, but mostly white and arabic.

[strickj]

I believe everything I hear from 4th person accounts over the interbebz

[EMTRN]

I heard he is an Arab.

[Rightwinger]

3rd hand of course, but I know the "source" and feel its reliable. A Mid TN area Mortgage company that services loans for "smaller market homes" has as of last Friday, had 14 calls from clients stating they would no longer be making their mortgage payments as Obama had promised he would take care of them. Of course in the current financial environment, they may very well get away with this for 6 months or so in the backlog, but unless courts and Sheriffs all get new laws handed down, these folks are going to be on evicted eventually.

You can't fix stupid and you can't buy America with a big smile and ears!

[Guest 44M]

that you can`t fix stupid we can see from some of the responses on here very well...even after 8 years of fail economy and foreign policies some people still don`t see nothing...except some retarded comments I don`t hear any constructive new ideas....US is broke, the rest of the world has no respect for us and we are fighting two unneccessery wars...and you are affraid what is Obama going to do...??? it can hardly be any worse than what already is....

"You can't fix stupid and you can't buy America with a big smile and ears!"

true, but thankfuly he had to go after 8 years

Funniest thing I've read all day. Mostly funny because some people will really believe this and spread it 'cross the interwebz like wildfire. Can't wait to read about this on Snopes.com in 2 years.

[Mike.357]

you mean this is not true?

[raydog1]

Maybe evolved from this story?

In 2006:

1) Consumer confidence stood at a 2 1/2 year high;

2) Regular gasoline sold for $2.19 a gallon;

3) The unemployment rate was 4.5%.

Mid 2008

1) Consumer confidence plummet;

2) The cost of regular gasoline soar to over $4.10 a gallon;

3) Unemployment is up to 5% (a 10% increase);

4) American households have seen $2.3 trillion in equity value evaporate (stock and

mutual fund losses);

5) Americans have seen their home equity drop by $1.2 trillion dollars;

6) 1% of American homes are in foreclosure.

What happened in 2006?

Dems took control of the House and Senate.

BTW, in case you forgot, 9/11/2001 is still a pretty good reason to be fighting.

7) Food prices skyrocketing over 30% in 1 year.

Considering some of the comments from the libtards where I work; I can fully believe this will happen.

Ok, gaydog. This is from my pastor's wife:

It was a lady who works at HCA with Gabby, my daughter--Zak's wife. The lady's husband works at a bank and two employees came to him with the revelation that O would take care of them. I am not really sure where the bank was, but Zak might know. C ya, bro

Gail

It's true.

[Mike.357]

It's true.

i never doubted it for a minute.

I am quitting my job tomorrow, Obama will take care of me.

I am lying

how are our foreign policies failing? They seem to be working pretty well!

matter of fact, I heard a couple of Iranians talking the other day about tourism in the U.S and how we can project our military strength anywhere on the planet. One of them said "yah, visit America before America visits you".

I seem to have heard this argument before.."The rest of the world has no respect for us."..

Since when do we give a rats behind about some OTHER country respecting us? Btw, which countries in particular don't respect us? name names before you spout political Rhetoric.

perhaps you're speaking of Iran?

you say we're fighting 2 unnecessary wars. I would posit the question "would you rather they come HERE and fight us?

and another question. 44M, how many people does it take to fight? I'm curious to see what your answer to this question will be.

Yes, we're broke, and now we're in an economic crisis. why? because Democrats were in bed with Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac. if you do your homework you'll find that your lord and savior Obama had a hand in it. he was in the top 3 senators who were getting kickbacks from these 2 organizations, to kill votes on Republican legislation that would regulate them. (google "federal housing regulation enterprise act of 2005"..you'll see McCain was one of the Co sponsors) and keep us from a melt down.

their CEO's cooked the books and lied about their earnings so as to extend their destructive theivery. Obama was with em right to the end.

The Democrats have put into action a policy of scorched earth, in the last 2 years control of congress. Since they couldn't control congress or win the presidency, they sabotaged America until public opinion was swayed...all the while touting "its the Evil BOOSH HITLER!!!"

you're welcome to sell a crap sandwich and tout it as steak, but don't get mad when the folks who actually DO research on this stuff call you out.

[Mark@Sea]

Free speech is great, it lets you see who the 'intellectually-challenged' are right off the bat.

I can well believe people are this dumb. Want to know why? Because some gun owners were dumb enough to vote for Obamalama. Hard to believe, isn't it?

The Bill of Rights is the most important political document ever penned, and the 2nd stands as the guardian of freedom. As hard as I look, I can't find the amendment guaranteeing freedom from responsibility for stupid decisions.

"If you love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."

It's true.

People walking off the job because an election result. To feed themselves for the next week, month, year how exactly? I have a feeling the truth would make much more sense.

[Steelharp]

You would think...

I have known steelharp for oh..just about since the inception of this forum. I've never known him to tell an untruth, even to his detriment. I have no reason to believe that he's doing so now.

To the contrary, he tends to think carefully before he speaks..moreso than I do. with me it's "built:GONE"

Did you see the Youtube video that Ghostrider posted? don't ask me why but I think those folks have lost all common sense. it's not logical, its pretty incredible..but then again, so does the idea that the United States would vote for a Kenyan as president. ...didn't see THAT one coming 8 years ago!!

[NuTcAsE]

that you can`t fix stupid we can see from some of the responses on here very well.

and you have the ability to see this??

..even after 8 years of fail economy and foreign policies some people still don`t see nothing

Failed economy, because of the President?? How bout irresponsible borrowing, how bout the gov. forcing lending companies into bad loans, how bout corporate America ran by idiots, how bout gov. borrowing, printing, and spending money like it's goin out of style approved and spent by more than the President? Yeah my biggest beef with President Bush is he spends like a democrat and I didn't see much resistance from either side. But i is NOT one mans fault for all this mess.

..except some retarded comments I don`t hear any constructive new ideas....

not see'in any hope here either.........

US is broke,

Yes we are. Solutions?

the rest of the world has no respect for us

Who really gives a S**T what the rest of the world thinks?

and we are fighting two unneccessery wars...and you are affraid what is Obama going to do...??? it can hardly be any worse than what already is....

Let's see, we have ascertained that, we are broke, have a failing economy, spending money on two wars. What exactly do you think will happen when you elect a tax & spend democrat President, Congress. Oh you can be assured that it will get worse when they start spreadin the wealth around.

I think this election has proven that, and obama has a big blue smile and big floppy ears....... hopefully they'll all go in two & four years.

[Steelharp]

tower, thanks. I appreciate it. I may make mistakes, and I'll admit them, but I won't be untruthful.

[323ssplt]

I have one HUGE bone to pick with all the A**holes who bitch about how much we are spending in our "two unneccessery wars"...are you f**king stupid....the VAST majority of that money spend goes right back into the AMERICAN economy. They (th sheeple) talk about how we spend a billion a month etc.well, the government has to pay extra for the troops to be there (seperations pay, combat pay, imminent danger pay etc) we have to pay the KBR truck drivers (who happen to be American) and we have to pay Blackwater for their services (oh yeah they're American too). Hell, with all these AMERICANS making money, do you think any of this money makes its way back into the US economy... HELL YES... When I came home in May I bought a $20,000 truck, a $150,000 house and several thousand dollars in guns and supplies. Oh yeah, they were all American made (OK my AK wasn't made here, but I contrubuted to a small business with the purchase). All the rest of my snipers came home and did the same....so don't go bo hooing over how much it costs us to fight in Iraq and the 'stan, because in the shot and the long run it benefits US!!!!!!!!!!
