"I come to work every day, why can't you?"

When Alexandra Pelosi did a piece on toothless Republican rednecks, it was an instant hit with the Libs. But I give her a lot of credit: when Bill Maher said it would only be fair that she make a video just as incendiary to liberals, Alexandra got right on it.

Behold, her coverage of welfare freeloaders. I'm surprised Mediaite hasn't pulled this video yet. Seriously. Watch the
whole thing.



Pelosi's point was to show her fellow Democrats that "the entitlement culture's gotten so big, we're losing our own people." "Own your party," she exhorted them.

"Joe the Doorman," she noted, comes from a long line of Democrats. But he won't be voting with them this year. Nor will Dimitri, her driver.

They're sick and tired of working to support able-bodied people in the welfare lines who say things like, "I'm here trying to get some Obama bucks," while freely admitting they have no intention of looking for work. Some said they support Obama simply because he is black, or because "he gives me stuff."

Pelosi asked one fellow if he had any intention of looking for a job and he shook his head no. His answer was priceless: "Not looking for a job, maybe a career, but not a job."

That same man -- who said he hadn't worked in "half a decade" -- told Pelosi he deserves your money "only because my ancestors came here, helped build this place . . . my ancestors, the slaves."

While the audience laughed uproariously at the toothless rednecks in Mississippi, Maher was not amused by Pelosi's piece on welfare kings and queens and he tried mightily to distinguish them from their toothless southern counterparts.

But so much for Maher's suggestion that racism is exclusive to the south. He summarily dismissed Doorman Joe's weary query -- "I come to work every day, why can't you?" -- because "they don't usually hire black doormen." Huh.

Not to mention, Maher lamented, it really
is damned hard to get a job if you've gone to jail. He seemed to speak from personal knowledge, so I guess he doesn't hire them, either.

I'm a bit surprised that Alexandra Pelosi would leave the libtard reservation to put a foot up the ass of a core Democrat constituency. Maher obviously thought she was wrong to do so.

Which is why that there MIGHT BE a wee ray of hope that a few on the Left can realize the folly of their ideology, and pull their party back from the brink of destruction that people like Maher have brought it to.

Oh, and I have all my teeth. And am from Iowa ;-)

Skunkfeathers: I stop by every now and then so my mouth can hang open in disbelief at the comments on lawyer mom's interesting posts. But today, I'm just going to slam your obscene self. "Libtard?" Really? No matter your party or the state of your teeth, you're a shameless and ignorant asshole.

Elizabeth: I'm glad you stop by so you can experience mouth hang. You should, at the very abysmal ignorance and stupidity that defines the ideology you choose to align yourself with.

You have underlined and emphasized my point about libtards perfectly. Thank you.
