The Obamessiah of Pickpocket Politics
The New Media Journal ^ | July 17, 2008 | JB Williams

Let’s get real with each other for a few minutes. Only one thing really divides America down the center line of politics known as “left” vs. “right,” the almighty dollar, now worth approximately .35 cents, thanks to more than seventy years of deficit spending.

Every national election is about the same thing really. Half of Americans use every national election cycle as nothing more than an opportunity to pick the pockets of the other half. The other half is running for cover.

I have often written about the lefts endless effort to shove their way to the public feeding trough of tax-payer funded federal gifts.

I should be more specific… There is no such thing as a free public feeding trough. Every penny in that trough came from the pockets of fellow Americans who earned them and politicians, who pick those pockets as an expedient means of gaining personal political power, are nothing more than thieves for hire.

From now on, I’m referring to the practice as “pickpocket politics” and clearly, Barack Obama is angling to become the new Pied Piper of the practice.

The US dollar is worth 35% of itself? Or 0.35% of itself as the notation suggests?

Apparently even the not-too-bright are on to this Obama person's racket.

Thomas Jefferson wrote, “I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.”

I love how the convoluted 'nuanced' arguments of the left can be torn down by a single quote of one of the men who founded our nation.
