Who Said That?

Okay, so… I was right.

In my October 7^th post I wrote a bit about the comment made by Jim Moran [the Democratic Congressman from VA] and stated that if you really looked at his words, you would see that he was talking about seizing more than taxes. By looking more closely at his idiotic statement, you could see that Moran was actually suggesting that property is not safe as far as he is concerned and that he would have little problem seizing it to distribute as he sees fit.

Shortly after making these points I was told by several people that I was just “being paranoid.”

Sadly, it took only about 10 days for my assertion to be proven. On October 19th, the Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi said the following:

“We’re talking about addressing the disparity in our country of income… But that disparity is not just about wages alone, that disparity is about ownership and equity.”

That’s right folks. The person who is third in line for the Presidency has come out and directly stated that we need to address the disparity in what people own and what equity [read this as accumulated wealth] they have been able to put away.

And why, one might ask, should they be looking to take away from those who have earned what they have? Pelosi answers that one as well:

“It’s all about fairness in our country.”

Unfortunately for the rest of us, the “fairness” that Pelosi is speaking of here is a fairness that she wants to decide on. While I am sure that those on the receiving end of such a handout would somehow be able to delude themselves into seeing the seizure as some act of fairness, I somehow doubt that those who would have their property and equity taken to be distributed to others would consider it “fair.”

Perhaps someone should take a moment to sit this twit down and explain that rather than being all about “fairness,” this country is actually all about “freedom.” Even a cursory glance at the Constitution should have made this apparent even to our esteemed speaker. That it has not, makes me wonder how loudly the spine of her copy would crack if she ever decided to open it.

Careful Nancy, the pages of a book that has never been read can cause nasty paper cuts.
