Challenge to values
Posted: Mon Jan 14, 2013 10:04 am
I was raised and subsequently raised mine with the value of "take responsibility for your action - don't blame others".
I am glad I am not raising a child in this environment where the president does not encourage this same value. In fact, it is just the opposite.
No matter how I would like to justify his action, the simple fact is constant blame. First Bush for 4 years, now Congress. This is a very poor example regardless of political stance. I am sure his actions will be defended....but that is to be expected when the scale of values is a sliding, relativist scale.

In light of that, treat the statement as completely false, full of hidden political overtones, stabs at sexism, racism, bigotry, religious fanaticism, conservatism, marxism, nazisim, liberalism, fascism, utopianism, pantysinabindism, gonnatakealeakism, and general don'tknowwhatthehellI'mtalkingabou
