"We're Going To Have Riots"

by Carter Clews - December 11th, 2008 - Get Liberty

“Already people are rioting because they’re losing their jobs and somebody else has been bailed out. And the unfairness of it becomes more and more evident as we go along, because the auto companies may be hurting, but there are very few companies that aren’t hurting. And they’re going to hurt. We don’t have enough money to bail everyone out.” [Senator Jim DeMint]

To Barack Obama, the Magic Marxist Messiah, it is about HOPE. To George W. Bush it is about COMPASSIONATE CONSERVATISM (whatever that means). To the American people it is about promises that cannot be fulfilled.

Barack Obama is a dreamer who has never earned his mantel of leadership through anything but campaigning. During that campaign he made promises no one can meet. George W. Bush was an excellent Governor of Texas but he never understood the difference between managing a state and leading a nation. Else his approval ratings would not be so low. Barack Obama is about to find out what it is like to fail to deliver on expectations.

Expectations are growing that the federal government can be the piggy bank for everyone's dreams. Already the disaster that George W. Bush and Henry Paulson have created by first, declaring a disaster, and then botching the solution beyond belief, has enraged the American people. The new auto bailout has 52% opposition and 28% who are uncertain. Only 20% support the auto bailout.

If it goes through there is absolutely no question that we will see the riots Senator DeMint is afraid of when the first bailout is denied, whenever that is.
