Leftist “Rights”

I always shake my head when I see or hear things like this.

So according to leftists “Rights” are synonymous with “Gifts”. Now let’s overlook the economic fallacy of the whole statement. I mean in your house if you and your spouse declared that you had the “Right” to a Bugatti Veyron, and modern updated kitchens and bathrooms, that would mean jack-crap, because unless you’re Mr. Scrooge-esque misers, you don’t have the cash to buy such frivolities. Leftists seem to have good understanding when poor people with no jobs bitch that they can’t afford stuff…but they seem to lose all comprehension that they actually don’t have the cash to give everybody a pony. Of course this is why the .gov is so well known for writing rubber checks.

Still let’s play a little, by looking at the Bill of Rights through the eyes of Jesse Jackson the younger.

First Amendment. You have the right to free speech. Also if you want a church, a printing press, or a computer for blogging one will be supplied to you at your request.

Second Amendment. Yep gunnies, get your heaters (at least the ones you don’t mind being on paper) appraised up and submit that with your taxes. Obviously no American should have to BUY a gun with their own money.

Also the Twenty-First Amendment. If you want to go pick up a 6-pack or mix up a Martini, well don’t reach for your wallet, its on daddy gov!

And of course they would argue that I’m just being obtuse in this post, and say it without the slightest hint of irony.
