Michele Bachmann Says If You Are Unemployed, You Should Starve

BigLouie's Avatar
Yesterday morning during a speech at the Family Research Council in Washington, Michele Bachmann bashed the unemployed in perhaps the most heartless way possible. After vowing to weaken social safety net programs such as Social Security, Medicare, food stamps, and unemployment benefits, Bachmann said that if you are currently not working, you should not be eating.

“Our nation needs to stop doing for people what they can and should do for themselves. Self reliance means, if anyone will not work, neither should he eat.”

Bachmann is saying that the unemployed should starve themselves and their families since they are out of work through no fault of their own. She might as well have added that the unemployed shouldn’t be allowed to have clothes or a roof over their head. This statement by Bachmann shows how much the Republican Party loathes the unemployed. They have zero compassion for anyone or anything. Even Jesus fed the needy. These Republicans have no Christian values at all, nor do they have humanity.

That is correct.
IF YOU WILL NOT WORK
YOU WILL NOT EAT

Nobody rides for free.

A true MAN doesn't look to others to
clothe, feed, house, and employ them.
A worthless slave seeks these things.
A man takes care of himself and his own.

The only thing life owes you
is a swift kick in the ass.
What I owe you.....
you don't want

Well, sport, you might want to read up on that in the Bible for yourself instead of relying on televangelists, Fox News and Michelle Bachman. I seem to recall something about if someone asks you for your shirt, you should also give them your cloak - or vice versa - doesn't matter, you won't get the drift anyway. Oh well, only Jesus Christ said it so it's probably optional.

Big Louie, considering the source, you're surprised? What's worse, you're concerned that it came out of HER mouth?

If we followed her example we will have droves of starving children in the streets, as well as a huge flux of starving homeless on the streets. We can go back to seeing dead people on the streets if we followed her example.

So, Comrade Candy, people who can work, but refuse to do so should be allowed to live off the people who do?

BTW: I know you like to be called Comrade Candy......

Ummmm Granny Pleasures, Mrs. Bachmann was talking about able-bodied people....reread the quote and stop being disingenuous.......if parents cannot feed their children, they are unfit and those children should be removed from their homes.....
Barack Obama's 'lost' brother found in Kenya

Senator Barack Obama's long lost brother has been tracked down for the first time living in a shanty town in Kenya, reports claimed.



By Nick Pisa in Rome

1:40PM BST 20 Aug 2008


The Italian edition of Vanity Fair said that it had found George Hussein Onyango Obama living in a hut in a ramshackle town of Huruma on the outskirts of Nairobi.

George Hussein Onyango Obama, Senator Barack Obama's long lost brother was tracked down living in a hut on the outskirts of Nairobi





Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate's half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.

"No-one knows who I am," he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month."

According to Italy's Vanity Fair his two metre by three metre shack is decorated with football posters of the Italian football giants AC Milan and Inter, as well as a calendar showing exotic beaches of the world.

Vanity Fair also noted that he had a front page newspaper picture of his famous brother - born of the same father as him, Barack Hussein Obama, but to a different mother, named only as Jael.

He told the magazine: "I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist."
Embarrassed by his penury, he said that he does not does not mention his famous half-brother in conversation.
"If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed," he said.
For ten years George Obama lived rough. However he now hopes to try to sort his life out by starting a course at a local technical college.
He has only met his famous older brother twice - once when he was just
five and the last time in 2006 when Senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi.
The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a "beautiful boy with a rounded head".
Of their second meeting, George Obama said: "It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes. It was like meeting a complete stranger."
George added he was no longer in contact with his mother and said:"I have had to learn to live and take what I need.
"Huruma is a tough place, last January during the elections there was rioting and six people were hacked to death. The police don't even arrest you they just shoot you.
"I have seen two of my friends killed. I have scars from defending myself with my fists. I am good with my fists."

now, i doubt Bachmann has much capacity for logic and reason, but these Republicans seem to be working with two contradictory notions:
1. rich people are job creators. we owe them thanks because they create jobs, and we cannot so we are dependent on them.
2. if you don’t have a job (something that, by 1. you are powerless to create if you are not rich) it is your fault
then again, is there any Republican presidential candidate who understands the Law of the Excluded Middle? i doubt it.

Quote:
"Even her line about ‘an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay’ is bullshit. People in this country (who are fortunate enough to have a job/jobs) work more hours per week than just about any other country in the industrialized world, yet salaries have been stagnant for at least the past 25-30 years. On the other hand the wealthiest Americans don’t work any harder than the average person (if at all), yet have manipulated the system so that all the wealth flows into their pockets. Their wealth is made on the sweat and toil of others or exists on paper only and is not based on any real goods or services provided."

Quote:
"Well, it seems that for every person milking the system, there are 10 who desperately need a job and can’t find one. I’m not sure how Bachmann would determine who was milking and who was unlucky. It would be quite sad to be pegged as “choosing not to work” and starving to death because some government bureaucrat wrongfully classified your job search.
Talk about the epitome of death panels."
IT'S GREAT HOW LIBERALS WANT TO TAKE CARE OF THE POOR WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY.........HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!........................... HYPOCRISY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


If someone is poor, their family and friends should be the first one's responsible for him or her.....if a State needs to step in (notice I didn't say Federal Government), then the poor person needs to be responsible to the tax payers....ie: loans rather than gifts, work for aid, mandatory education/job training, drug-freedom, sterilization, limited duration of benefits, mandatory job search...........

She has a law degree and masters in tax law.....how about you?

she's worked as a tax lawyer....how does that match up to your work history?

FUCKING HYPOCRISY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!
