Grown adults, playing this back and forth game...when republicans and democrates stop playing games, and realize, that both sides are corrupt, maybe things will change, but to define yourself by your political affiliation is just so immature...

and before you start calling the tea party names, I don't know any thing about them, nor am I affiliated with them, nothing against them, just am so sick and tired of people who are uninformed.

I so wish you people would stop labeling every single human being the same way....there is good and bad in all people...grow up and realize how utterly childish you sound, and by the way, not much more knowledgable.....
Lol...well, well.

For once, we're not on a thread about "inner city blacks" and their pathologies, are we?

No..this one is about poor white Kentuckians on welfare, and all of a sudden the violins come out! It's....magic!

Poor Kentucky has no stomach for Obama
Maybe because Obama took his job away.

Like mining for coal.

No excuses. No quarter. No sympathy. Period.
Right On!

The people interviewed in the article are the very people conservatives want shoved under the carpet. They don't want to speak about nor even acknowledge that poor white conservatives also have their hands out, taking money OUT OF MY POCKET !!! MONEY I EARNED !!!

IMO, he sounds a lot like union employees do when they realize the Dems ain't all that--even though they've been voting them in for years (note that this guy worked for a Democrat, too).

Gimmeabreak.
....and the excuses keep pouring in.

"This guy is no conservative blah, blah, blah.."

Whatever dude...save it.

There you have it. He says it so much more eloquently than I do.

What do you all think, should I needlepoint it into a sampler for our poor Kentucky sufferer?

Uh huh. And do you feel equal sympathy for people in let's say...Gary, Indiana that lost their steel industry jobs and ended up on the dole?

You guys are really exposing yourselves here.

It's really quite simple -

Deserving poor, living in grim conditions, unable to find decent work due to local economic structure- likely vote R

Undeserving poor, living in grim conditions, unable to find decent work due to local economic structure - likely vote D

Yes, mining coal is the only job in America.

What are the rest of us doing? My hands are fairly clean...

In any case, could he still be a coal miner after two heart attacks?

This man needs to acquire new SKILLS!! Isn't that what everyone says?

Lol...hilarious.

This thread is just what the doctor ordered. I started to post it up yesterday, but I'm glad I let someone else do it first.

Of course, they'll say that this is ONLY in Kentucky, which is a boldfaced lie.
