People don’t make changes in their life style until they are uncomfortable enough that it forces them to do so.
That’s across the board, even those of us that try to live a productive life.

Think about all the positive changes you have made in your life where you first found yourself uncomfortable enough to make the changes needed.

So if we keep these freeloaders “comfortable”…we’ll never get them off our backs. I say we make them as miserable as possible. It is the only thing they will understand…well maybe…probably not though.

Should last about 6mos. My or my how “fine” they will look in their flashy duds and shiny new cars with the shiny hubs…

Guess what… once it all gone you’ll see them once again complaining they “ain’t got nuthin” and no body will hep’em.

No…no matter what you give this crowd they will burn through it faster than Obalmy is burning through our taxes now.

Of course these lifetime entitlement moochers just can’t grasp that the projects won’t be rebuilt as even Uncle Sugar (or his local cousin, Mayor Chocolate City) don’t want to encourage the moochers when they can have a full city of taxpaying citizens to fund their agendas retirements.

Of course the ‘compassionate’ Liberals who 1) scam off a % of all donations collected when this ‘disaster’ happened, 2) even as they continue to blame the ‘Bush’ government for this situation, got tired of donating, volunteering and assisting these perpetual whiners and 3) feel much better and more righteous when they guilt the rest of America while attempting to make taxpayers give even more to these entitlement junkies. Who cares anymore?

Personally, as a diabetic….it’s a pretty lame excuse. Sure, I’ve had my problems with it. Even faced off with a state trooper who was a moron and who wanted to write me for DUI until the doctor got in his face. Even then I felt pretty bad about it.

But it all comes down to personal responsibility. In my case, I had an undiagnosed complication that caused my blood sugar to plummet…it was sudden and resulted in me passing out. I have taken steps to correct that problem.

But in the case of Ms Jenkins, I couldn’t care less. Like has been said, I would shed no tears to find that she’s on the street with “no plan” because…she has never contributed to society, save perhaps to spit out at least three or four more burdens on society, if that’s “contributing”.

I’m afraid my limits of sympathy for her expired a long time ago and probably long before Katrina. Indeed, it is astounding that that particular natural disaster is STILL brought up to this day as if it happened yesterday, if not last night. No amount of snappy catch-phrases, new-speak jingoism or guilt-laden speech will make me care any more than I do right now, which is–not at all.

I was living in Houston when it happened. They came…and they came and the homicide rate there went up briefly by double. Break-ins, carjackings…etc…all up across the board. There is a certain amount of social darwinism that applies. Handouts only work if they have a definite end period and even then, they are limited in their effectiveness….to the extent that usually less than 1% use them while also trying to help themselves.

What I would PREFER to read are stories about how a family or individual, affected by Katrina, was able to take advantage of the federal help, then got their ducks in a row and today are doing well, contributing to society and back on track with their career or starting college, or what-have-you.

But no. You will only see the stories in the news and the paper about how “society unfairly treats the poor”.

Well, again, as I’ve already said. The logic disconnect is complete and the evaluation as to why people are poor is never examined anymore. Why? Because the answers are startlingly illuminating. Sure, I could be poor too. I wanted something better, so I did something about it.

Otherwise, I could be living on the people’s dime in a trailer in N’awlins too…wif my TeeBee set and my’s meds paid fo’.

I just can’t tolerate it though. I could never look at myself in the mirror. N’umsayn?

If you think I’m off base, do a search under Fema, toxic chemicals, lawsuits. Perhaps Ms. Jenkins does not want to leave until she has secured legal representation…

So not only is the evil George Bush heartless toward Katrina victims, he placed them in temporary (not so temporary, apparently) shelters rife with chemical toxins and the taxpayer gets to pay for the trailers and now gets to pay for the lawsuits that will be forthcoming. When do the taxpayers get to sue to recover their tax money that’s been frivolously given out to (what appears to be) opportunists?

Had nothing before…….has nothing now…….will have nothing later……..unless we give it to them!!
44 months rent free?
44 months of entitlements?
I’ll bet the President is a Communist that the boyfriend drives a fancy car w/ $2,000.00 wheels and rims. Probably sells drugs and has another main squeeze somewhere else in Free Trailer Park Heights!!

As for Reparations to the African hyphenated Americans…….LBJ started this Great Society in ’65 and we’ve been looted ever since.
Always something for nothing!!

Those “victims” are hoping Katrina V2.0 comes through again this hurricane season. Excuses, excuses.
