It never fails to amaze me how ready people are to stereotype a huge segment of the population. The worst of it is seen during political campaigning.
Dan Kauffman is quoted as saying, "...and we've got a lot of people who want the government to take care of them and be their God, and take care of them cradle to grave; they call themselves liberal Democrats."
Sheer stupidity. Democrats don't all want to be taken care of from cradle to grave. If that were the case and democrats had sufficient power to make it happen, the United States would be a very different place. Think about it, Mr. Kauffman.
I'm a life-long democrat who has worked hard for every dollar she's ever earned. I have never once gotten anything from the federal govenment by way of financial help or support. I consider your comment to be both degrading and highly insulting.
