BigGovernment.com -yes, the biggovernment.com who has been hosting the pimp/prostitute expose of ACORN – has a post today about the bigotry of low expectations concerning the workers at ACORN.
What ELSE could be expected of the poor, the disenfranchised, the needy.
Of course they would sympathize with the poor young prostitute just getting started and already in need of a house of her own due to past beatings. We can help her.
I’m with them – right up until ACORN employees continue to speak with these young journalists after being told about the young (under 16 yo) girls from El Salvador they intend to import illegally and set up to work.
Um – even the poor, the disenfranchised, the needy know THAT’s wrong!!!
But let’s expand this to President Carter’s statement yesterday. The president notes:
“There is an inherent feeling among many in this country that an African-American should not be president.”
The Georgia Democrat said the outburst [Joe Wilson's] was a part of a disturbing trend directed at the president that has included demonstrators equating Obama to Nazi leaders.
“Those kind of things are not just casual outcomes of a sincere debate on whether we should have a national program on health care,” he said. “It’s deeper than that.”
Apparently Jimmy Carter has such low expectations of the American people that his mind immediately goes to racism when confronted with accusations of Nazism. When President Bush was accused of Nazism, was that also racism? No.
The American people apparently have so few opinions that only President Obama’s can be correct and any other opinion would only exist because Obama is black.
The poor apparently have so few values that roping underaged illegal aliens from a very poor country to prostitute themselves in order to fund some future congressional campaign is “normal”.
In what world do these scenarios make sense?

Dear President Carter,
Please read George Will today where he notes:
He {Obama] says America’s health-care system is going to wrack and ruin and requires root-and-branch reform—but that if you like your health care (as a large majority of Americans do), nothing will change for you.
His slippery new formulation is that nothing in his plan will “require” anyone to change coverage. He used to say, “If you like your health-care plan, you’ll be able to keep your health-care plan, period.” He had to stop saying that because various disinterested analysts agree that his plan will give many employers incentives to stop providing coverage for employees.
He deplores “scare tactics” but says that unless he gets his way, people will die.
He praises temperate discourse but says many of his opponents are liars.
He says Medicare is an exemplary program that validates government’s prowess at running health systems. But he also says Medicare is unsustainable and going broke, and that he will pay for much of his reforms by eliminating the hundreds of billions of dollars of waste and fraud in this paragon of a program, and in Medicaid.
He says Congress will cut Medicare (it will not) by $500 billion—without affecting benefits.
(reformatted for easy listing)
Will is just getting started.
