"Left" Over Change

Well, the anointed one recently took a trip to Fort Meyers, Fla., to host a town hall meeting. Now, you know the types that show up for these gigs. It was definitely an interesting crowd, but those are the uninformed that also made him our monarch. Anyhoo, while there, the questions he received show the utter confusion among his electorate. One gentleman asked why unemployment benefits could not cover 100% percent of a person's former salary (ummm...I assume his previous gig was not in finance), another fool was acting spastic and when called on complained about having to work at McDonalds and not being able to find another job. Well buddy, if you are as annoying in person as you acted in the audience, perhaps it is your personality that has precluded you from landing more lucrative employment.

But the kicker came from a woman who said she was living out of a car and wanted Barry's help securing a new car and a house with a kitchen and bathroom. The King proclaimed that she should see his staff afterwards and they will see what they can do. But, it looks like her begging, shameless at that, paid off. Her state rep has offered the free use of his house to her until she gets back on her feet. On top of that, Ellen DeGeneres is said to be interested in her plight as well. I'm sure they are on the phone now trying to find someone to give them a free house, so they can take all the credit for the give away.

What's worse, we have this douche bag (click link) comparing her to Rosa Parks. Really? Come on now, are we so far removed from Rosa Parks that we now compare her acts to that of a woman who overextended herself and as a result of her own poor financial planning is forced to live in her car? At least we do have one thing in common. The reporter claims tears started flowing as she heard this woman speak. I had the same reaction, but mine was because I see our country sinking so low. This savior-based government has to stop.

Lord, please send us another Reagan!
