So where were the bigots last weekend…really?
So nice to hear the “reverand” Sharpton leading a chant that ends with ‘no peace.’

Another Great Quote
“You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.
You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative
and independence.
You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and
should do for themselves.”
Abraham Lincoln

Another Smart Blog Commenter:
Here’s a brilliantly insightful comment by commenter “mike_espagna”. His perspective is most interesting.
Rather than comment directly on Obama, here is a fable about an Ant & and Grass hopper.
Ant & Grasshopper (old version)
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.
MORAL OF THE OLD STORY: – Be responsible for yourself!
Ant & Grasshopper (new version)
The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving.
CBS, NBC , PBS, CNN, ABC & the BBC all show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America & Britain are stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, ‘It’s Not Easy Being Green…’ ACORN the liberal group that advocated prostitution for minors stages a demonstration in front of the ant’s house where the news stations film the group singing ‘We shall overcome’. Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper’s sake.
President Obama and his socialist friends from Britain condemns the ant and blames President Bush, President Reagan, Maggie Thatcher, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper’s plight.
Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share. Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant’s food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant’s old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn’t maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again.
The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood.
The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it.
MORAL OF THE STORY FOR AMERICANS : – Be careful how you vote in 2010 & 2012.

Ah yes, ANOTHER distraction!
Has anybody else noticed that ever since Obama got involved in the Ground Zero Mosque fiasco and then ran off on his latest vacation, that the headlines seem to focus on the Mosque and not on other more important issues? Issue like say oh I dunno maybe jobs…the economy….the national debt…the potential collapse of the dollar…the deficit….a potential crisis in the Middle East where Iran is, almost daily, flexing its muscles rhetorically?
Nope we’re not focusing on that. Progressives are busy attacking anyone who believes the Mosque developers should relocate the site, calling them racists, haters, islamophobes etc….the usual Liberal name calling. And of course, Conservatives are busy defending themselves from these charges and explaining that ‘of course the muslims have the RIGHT to build there, they just SHOULDN’T build there.’ Great.
Anybody else think that this distraction was intentional? I’ve said all along that the Obama Administration tends to try to focus the country’s attention on one hand so we don’t notice what the other hand is doing. In this case they may not be doing anything. The distraction could be just away from their miserable record and the fact that the economy during their self-proclaimed ‘Summer of Recovery’ is still horrendous.
Just saying…

Gov’t to Americans: Do what you are told!
Last week I read an article about Cleveland, Ohio. Apparently they have a new system of recycling carts embedding with an RFID chip that ‘reads’ the address and the frequency of recycling at that address. According to the article, if there is infrequent recycling from a particular address, the rubbish collector will proceed to go through the regular trash. If recyclable items are found in the ‘regular’ trash the owner of the home will be fined.
I have to admit, my first though upon reading this was ‘you’ve GOT to be KIDDING!’ Big Brother in America has become emboldened to the point that they’re going to go through my trash?!?!? (Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for recycling…but I am NOT, I repeat, NOT for ENFORCED OR COERCED recycling. Give me a break….this is AMERICA….what happened to individual LIBERTY?!?!?!
And then I got a shock. I read some of the blog comments associated with this article. And believe it or not, there were many in favor of forcing recycling. Huh? Yep, many former inmates of our public schools–where progressive indoctrination reigns–we in favor of FORCING others to the will of the government. They called it ‘positive social responsibility.’ Ah ha…positive ’social’ responsibility.
Guess that is what happens when INDIVIDUAL responsibility is denigrated while SOCIAL responsibility is promoted….we get a generation that is willing to relinquish liberty…as long as others are forced to do what the government thinks is right.
What HAVE we come to?
