The normal expectation would be that high unemployment would hurt the President and his fellow Democrats come the November elections. Not so, says Representative Chaka Fattah (D-PA). Every person who's unemployed or on welfare knows that it's the Democrats who will look out for them. Fattah asserted.
The flaw in the GOP's reasoning is the mistaken notion that putting more people to work is what voters want, Fattah said. What everyone wants is a paycheck. They'll work for it if they have to. But getting one without being forced to work for it is the type of total freedom that the Democratic Party has stood for the last 80 years.
Freedom of speech and freedom of religion get a lot of publicity, but I would guess that freedom from toil is a benefit more prized by your average American, Fattah contended. Our Party is the one that recognizes that. Our Party is the one voters can trust to deliver it.
In support of his case, Fattah credited Democrats for relieving 50% of the population from paying federal income taxes. If we add the 8% who're unemployed to the 50% who're exempt from paying taxes I think we have the makings of a Democratic landslide next November.

This jerkwad’s picture, party affiliation and statement should be plastered across billboards from coast to coast and on TV every 15 minutes.
I want this jackass democrat to turn over his salary to me for the rest of his worthless life. I’m tired of working all of these long years and it is time for him to pay my upkeep, forever.
Yes, freedom to the libs is getting the free stuff. It is all degenerate thinking from the dumbo party.
SWEET!!!
Born Arthur Davenport, Fattah is another Black Muzzie!

Too close to the truth, John. We need stuff like unicorns from other galaxies for satire.
Chaka Fattah sounds like something I do on Taco Bell night.
Might as well call it the Welfare Party.
You’re the best. The scary thing is only about half the articles that you’d think are satire really are satire.
The way to a Democrat's heart is through their stomach. Barky is planning a sequel program for his second term: tramp stamps. That way the Democrats will have them by their heart, mind, *and* balls.
A Chaka Fattah is obviously a disciple of Debbie Wasserman Shultz.
?
So I didn't blow my top. :)
Thank GOD for strippers.
Thanks to disability, I’ve already attained that freedom from toil. I’d gladly give up that freedom to work again.
Thanks again, John, for the ping. So close to real.

Another accurate depiction of how the Democrats view reality.
And the freedom to threaten to blow up the electric company over a $14 electric bill!

Nice one, John.
An exceptionally (as opposed to "semi") well-crafted piece. Good stuff, John, as always.
