Breck Girl Promises Free College and an End to Free Meals

As you may have heard, John Edwards has been trying to out-pander Shrillary by promising a college education to all Americans, presumably even those of us who have no use for one and do not belong in college.

Stealing money from the productive to pay able-bodied adults to sit through lectures about queer theory and womyn's studies will — according to the Breck Girl — alleviate poverty.

Here's something almost as funny — while listing some of the extravagant freebies he plans to finance by looting "the rich," the zillionaire trial lawyer proclaimed:

There are no free meals.

In the upside-down, inside-out, topsy-turvy world of moonbattery, a "free meal" is when the government lets you keep what you earned. The goodies he's promising — college education for everyone, federally financed universal pre-kindergarten, matching savings accounts for low-income voters, a million new housing vouchers, etc., etc., ad nauseam — aren't free meals but entitlements, because they are coercively paid for by someone else.

Liberals define compassion as how willing you are to spend other people's money.

Didn't Ross Perot call this kind of stuff "free candy and double talk"?

It's so obvious why they want a free college education for all Americans. To make sure everyone is indoctrinated with their Socialist BS. This is precisely why Family Security Matters put "colleges & universities" at number two on their Ten Most Dangerous Organizations in America. I'd like to know when will American Women renounce Feminism and the lies found in "womyn's studies"? Until then, all we have to look forward to is more and more of what Daniel Amneus accurately called the Garbage Generation.

Just what every woodland area needs- to be mowed down to make room for some ambulance chaser looking to build a monument to himself.

I don't think we've heard a peep from the Enviroleftists about this, have we? As quiet as Feminists about Gary Condit, Bill Clinton, etc....

Not sure if you've already come across this: Science and Public Policy Institute digs up not just 9 or 11, but 35 errors in Al Gore's 'A Collection of Convenient Lies'.

http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/monckton/goreerrors.html

Learned of from http://globalwarming-factorfiction.com/ which has its own analysis of the SPPI claims.

Damn if we weren't just talking about "Moonbattery," linguistic revisionism, etc., and up pops Herr Commandant, the Super Fascist, John "SilkyPony," a/k/a "The Breck Girl," Edwards (and his moronic wifey -- like the Clintons, you get two for the price of one -- oh, what a thrill!). If ever there was a more perfect example of a Moonbat pair (well, okay, Billy & Shrillary do outshine the poor, pitiful Edwardses in this regard), I haven't seen it (save as noted).

So who cares how the Left tries to "re-define" words like Moonbattery -- we'll always know who the Moonbats are the moment they open their pie-holes, and oftentimes, before. Screw 'em!

Free college education is a great idea. This country is filthy rich and the money goes only to the few. It's disusting. I hope they know that when they die, there money will not be able to buy them a sip of water in hell.
Why not make healthcare free also. Oh wait I forgot, I suppose it is rich people's lives that matter. Screw you people, your evil.
