    Yeah, well there's a whole bunch of them that are screw ups that can't lay off the crack pipe, or put down the bottle. Or they screwed off in school, or made a lot of bad choices. Some of them are simply blame shifters. Some are flat out lazy. And many of their stories and circumstances aren't all that unique.

    Not all of them mind you. And that's the problem. The Democrats would like to paint all of the poor as people who were forced into their situation by a "series of unfortunate events" beyond their control. Even though they did everything they were supposed to, these poor souls were just the victims of "bad luck". They couldn't help it. There's nothing they could have done differently. And you can always find a few sob stories out there that would seem to support that notion. And then the Democrats will try and lump all the crack ho's in with the good folks from the sob stories.

    Well, I don't buy it. And the moral fable that kicked off this thread would seem to poke fun at those that do buy into it.

      I actually don't mind that characterization at all. It wouldn't exist if the Democrats didn't constantly pander to the poor with divisionary rhetoric about "corporate fat cats" and tax cuts for the rich that "exploit good decent working folk".
      I couldn't agree more scott. There wouldn't be any racism around if the damn blacks would just stop pandering. And, same for women and sexism...just more pandering.

      If you're intent on having a discussion about racism and sexism, I suggest you start a separate thread for that topic.

          While i do agree with what you said..i wonder, how many rich folks are exactly like those screwups.

          In that they are lazy, party alot, etc. But, they have the fortune to have rich parents and connections. I've seen this happen quite a bit.

                there are good and bad people in all walks of life. I have not found any group to be more or less virtuous once you get to know them.


                well, except for the jews.

                  Yeah, well I noted your "fuck you" tribal reaction to a moral fable with underlying thinking that would put your free meal ticket agenda at risk.
                  Scott, you repeatedly characterize me as a welfare loafer. I come from a relatively wealthy family who have helped me out of scrapes here and there, that's the extent of my free loading. When I was a lad, I was paid in stock at some small high tech companies, which has helped me out now that I'm in my declining years. I don't have ambitions of government help. Well, maybe some of that government cheese would be cool.

                    1) Tyrone is a crackhead.
                    2) Ballhawk is 15, and learned all about the redlight district in Amsterdam from reading about it on the internet.
                    3) Nutz likes "big boned" women - preferably Asian.
                    4) Little Wiskey has a gun rack in his pickup.
                    5) Iron Mike has over 3200 cd's in his collection.
                    6) Madtown couldn't possibly run a Packer Forum.
                    7) Scott Campbell is a Polygamist Mormon prick.
                    8) Patler is really Bob Harlan.
                    9) The ladies of PackerRats are a beer and a shot away from a massive lesbian orgy, and everybody but B. is invited to watch.
                    10) Harlan is a moral crusader/lazy welfare cheat.


                    This forum thrives on these truths, and many others just like them.

                            Mad, send me a PM with the past statements where I mislead you.

                            And if you're going to quote my previous statement, don't just take part of it to distort what I said.
