Hat tip goes to Jeff
Foxworthy and to AmyElizabeth
who posted his article on the GOPtheDailyDose.com website today. In Foxworthy’s
list he illustrates in a very ironic and humorous way the shortcomings (insanity tendencies) of the
liberal mind. He broaches the following areas:
·
Illegal
immigration
·
Bypassing
Parental Notification for a Child’s Abortion
·
Resistance to Voter
Identification
·
Gun Control
·
Food Nazism
·
TSA and
Profiling
·
Sexual
Exploitation of Children
·
Government
Spending
·
Government
Encouraging Dependence
·
Welfare Culture
·
Bailouts
·
Opposing Self
Defense
What Foxworthy exposes is the outright lunacy of liberalism as it has
increasing got a stranglehold on society and its institutions. Political
correctness is the clarion call of the Left. All of Foxworthy’s statements
illustrate a particular aspect of political correctness.
PRICELESS!! A Country Founded by Geniuses
but Run by Idiots
By Jeff Foxworthy
If
you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for
entering and remaining in the country illegally — you might live in a nation
that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
…
If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or to
take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion — you might live in
a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
you MUST show your identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor,
or check out a library book and rent a video, but not to vote for who runs the
government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run
by idiots.
If
the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun
magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty F-16 fighter jets to
the crazy new leaders in Egypt — you might live in a nation that was founded by
geniuses but is run by idiots.
If,
in the nation’s largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not one 24-ounce
soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat — you might
live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
an 80-year-old woman or a three-year-old girl who is confined to a
wheelchair can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a woman in a
burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched — you
might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of
debt is to spend trillions more — you might live in a nation that was founded
by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher is “cute,”
but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is
perfectly acceptable — you might live in a nation that was founded by
geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government
regulation and intrusion, while not working is rewarded with Food Stamps,
WIC checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized housing, and free cell phones —
you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
the government’s plan for getting people back to work is to provide
incentives for not working, by granting 99 weeks of unemployment checks,
without any requirement to prove that gainful employment was diligently
sought, but couldn’t be found — you might live in a nation that was
founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big-screen
TV, while your neighbor buys iPhones, time shares, a wall-sized do-it-all
plasma screen TV and new cars, and the government forgives his debt when
he defaults on his mortgage — you might
live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
If
being stripped of your Constitutional right to defend yourself makes you
more “safe” according to the government — you might live in a nation that
was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.
What
a country!
