Dr. Rogers simply read the Good Book. It says if you don’t work, you don’t eat. Simple stuff.

This is a very funny version of it as a rap song:

You can still watch Dr. Adrian Rogers (rebroadcasts) on Christian TV stations. He gave excellent sermons.

I think this lady accomplished what seemed impossible; truly embarrassing the Obama Administration. She fit every stereotype for a ebonics speaking Welfare Queen or Obot. I haven’t seen her
on TV or Youtube since her debut. Lena Dunham is okay, but the ObamaPhone Lady, is just a little too much, because she is a believable character.

“””This should include Social Security recipients as well. ALL government takings for transfer to individuals should cease. We should enforce the “general welfare” clause and forbid “specific welfare.” And yes, this does include Social Security. “”””

Social Security is an ENTITLEMENT. I am entitled to it because I paid into it for 45 years. I will get only a portion of the money back that the government forced me to give them. And since I was self employed for most of the time I had to pay in twice what an average employee would get stolen from them.

I also thought those were Lincoln quotes.

See this.

Echoes the sentiments expressed by one Rev. William Boetcker, a late-19th-century lecturer:

You cannot bring prosperity by discouraging thrift.
You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.
You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.
You cannot help the poor man by destroying the rich.
You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income.
You cannot further brotherhood of men by inciting class hatred.
You cannot establish security on borrowed money.
You cannot build character and courage by taking away man's initiative and independence.
You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.

Prescient.

See my post further down. The quote has been erroneously attributed to Lincoln.

Waiting for a tweet from the White House denouncing the plaque as racist.
