The Purse Snatchers

Think of an old lady who is laying on the ground and is partially disoriented from some medical condition. Then, all of a sudden, a crook seizes the opportunity to steal her purse and run.

To me this is just like Barack Obama and his merry men of "sure-would" forest. Sadly, and unlike the Robin Hood of lore, our real-life Robin Hood, Barack Obama, won't just stop at robbing from the rich. The poor will find this out when inflation kicks in as a result of paying for all his out-of-control spending. They will find this out when their costs for heating and for running a car will go through the roof as Obama and the Dems get their caps on our carbon forms of energy production. And, they will find this out when our economy and this country's affluence is completely drained by all of Obama's social re-engineering plans.

Barack Obama and the Democrats are as opportunistic as the thief that took that old woman's purse. I know this because Barack and his people have said so.

First, there was Rahm Emmanuel with this comment in November of 2008: "You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before." (See A Story And Commentary)

Then, just last week, Hillary Clinton let this one slip at a global economic meeting in Brussels: "Never waste a good crisis ..." (See Full Story)

Then, in his Saturday morning radio address, our supreme leader, Barack, reiterated that theme when he said that we must "discover great opportunity in the midst of great crisis."

Nowhere in any of these comments is there a focus on solving the problem of this recession. Instead, and in each and every case, it is as if they are all saying "Oh...goody. We can use this calamity to do the all stuff that we always wanted to do and could never get done before!"

These people are all opportunistic thieves. They are using this recession and the cover of our current fear and confusion to do do the things that they couldn't have done otherwise. And, this is a sin that we and our children's children will be paying for, and keep paying for, long after after we are all gone. Just my opinion.
