| Rep. Joe Walsh |
I don't see the big fuss here either, because Rep. Walsh is telling the truth. The fact remains that most African Americans are
dependent on the government largesse in some form: working for the
government (22%), welfare (12%), or Social Security/disability benefits
(24%). That means that almost 60% fall into Rep. Walsh's category. The
only change that I'd have made is to add that the Democratic Party's
goal is increasingly for everyone — across race — to revel in envy
politics and be dependent on government. Anyway, Mr. Durden, a
libertarian-conservative blogger, opines about the controversy: "Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) is catching hell for saying that
Democrats want Hispanics dependent on government 'like black people.'
It's easy to be offended by what Walsh said, but in a way, he's right.
Okay, pick up your chin off the floor. While there may be some Democrats
and leftists/Socialists who believe in a simple safety net, there are
many others who want an expansive welfare state so they can maintain
power. ALL politicians (right and left) know that by promising more,
they can maintain their power."
He continues his commentary: "Democrats know they have the loyalty of
Fido when it comes to black people. They need to tap into the largest
minority group. If Hispanic/Latino people embrace the notion of
3-jobs-or-whatever-it-takes like black people used to do, then
Democrats can offer them little. Make a man a victim, then pretend to
be his hero. You have his loyalty."
Communication is one of the most discussed issues that affect couples and families. After reading the above article -- how do you feel? How does truth, communication and openness play a role in this?
