  There's your answer in a word.   Control=dependence=votes!

So should we stop whining and begin applauding failure?

I never understand why so many want the gov to do so much for them in their everyday lives...things they should be taking care of themselves.

Agree...and there are still folks who want them running our Healthcare system...smh. And did you know my insurance went up...heard about it on Fox news.

Higher cost for health insurance... me and everyone at my company is paying more for health insurance as a direct result of obamacare... so we can provide others the subsidies to make their health insurance cheaper. Just one more variation of welfare.

From the article:   It doesn’t feel like leadership. It doesn’t feel like you’re in command of your world. How can we accept these reduced expectations and truculent passivity from the man who offered himself up as the moral beacon of the world, even before he was elected?   I doubt he was very appreciative of this article...it did criticize his critics but it pointed out his weakness as well. 

Still praying for your sister and your family...and wisdom for the doctors.

[Hidden Content]   From the article:   Baier then asked Vietor whether he personally changed the word “attack” to “demonstrations” in the talking points for Rice. “Maybe, I don’t really remember,” Vietor said. When pressed by Baier, Vietor said, “Dude, this was like two years ago. We're still talking about the most mundane process.”

:rolleyes:

  77, you know I am no fan of Obama's policies and I believe he makes spending on entitlements more of a priority than programs the fed gov SHOULD be funding such as the VA.   But I could say the same thing about Bush and his funding for Education and Medicare Part D.   The VA has had problems for years.

  I was speaking more of his priority on which issue to address in the press.   As far as funding, I'm not sure that any modern day Presidents have made it a priority...would have to research to compare.

This must have been painful for her.   [Hidden Content]

Many security personnel (not off-duty policemen) would be no more qualified than a trained teacher.

It took Obama over a week to comment on the VA situation after the story broke but he found time to comment on the Sterling situation the day after it broke.   Strange priorities for a President.

You want the government to fix it?

The players and coaches and NBA brass have known who this guy is for years...they may choose not to play/coach for him now but the rightfully so part about their decision is past.

Not surprising... Ron Paul has been out front on many issues.

  The NBA knew who this guy was and ignored it for decades...to think this recording revealed anything to the NBA is laughable.   It reached the public (public outcry is what caused action) and Sterling was forced to do something...if no video evidence, he would have continued to be in the NBA fold.

  Disagree...teachers that are trained would be a great idea and they wouldn't be an extra cost to the ISD like security officers would.

I believe the free market will deal with this guy...even when the league wouldn't.   Remember the Dixie Chicks and Paula Deen...and Paula Deen's remarks were 30 years old!

  It is about the topic...this man has been known to be a racist for a long time now...no secret.   Why has he been given a pass by the league, players and even being given an award by the NAACP.   BigCam pointed out this hypocrisy in an earlier post...so why would a guy like this get a pass all these years?   Could it have anything to do with money that he has donated?   [Hidden Content]
