  • How compassionate is it

    • to offer a lower college tuition to the children of illegal immigrants than children of tax-paying citizens are forced to pay?
    • to burden a struggling middle-class with the cost of providing “free” healthcare and education to the children of illegal immigrants?
    • to subject the citizens of southern border states to kidnap & extortion?
    • to saddle our children with debt they will never be able to repay (generational theft)?
    • to demonize the same 1% who pay 37% of all Federal Income Taxes?
    • to not pass a budget in 3 years?
    • to spend $111 Million to create 55 jobs! (source- Federal Stimulus Audit)
    • to spend $ 1 Trillion more than gov’t takes in 5 years in a row?
    • to “fight for the poor” wearing $6,000 dresses & taking $300,000 vacations?
    • to penalize productivity and reward non-productivity?
    • to allow the theft of $1.6 Billion (MFG) from private citizens to go unpunished?
    • to give $500 Million to President’s political cronies ( like Solyndra) who bankrupt company within 12 months?
    • to the parents, for this gov’t to refer to the Ft Hood massacre of their children to the shouts Allahu Akbar as “workplace violence”?
    • to demand benefits we don’t get and wages that double our average wages (Public/Private)?
    • to demonize the only free society in the Middle East?
    • to issue a government mandate forcing the faithful to violate their conscience?
    • to brainwash our children?
    • to force unionization?
    • to demand compassion and “social justice” using other people’s money?
    • to support a religion that is responsible for 19,250 deadly attacks since 9/11?
    • to turn the criminal who commits pedophilia into a “minor-attracted” person?
    • to slowly tear apart a 23 week old fetus because it wasn’t the right sex?

     That’s OK…as long as we’re NICE to one another! Right? (You may wish to apply rib belt here.) :-) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKbjEirYYOU
