In the video below, slide ahead to 2:15 where Strickland echoes the same garbage that fueled Occupy Cleveland members to attempt to murder innocent people by blowing up a bridge with C4 explosives.
And just last night, while the Occupy Cleveland members were being arrested? Ted Strickland was on cable news echoing the OWS dialogue about Mitt Romney being the 1%.
Enough of this victim mentality nonsense, Ted. Let me tell YOU something. I know you and Barack don't like to hear this, but no "Wall Streeter" controls MY destiny. I'm not poor, and I'm not rich. I'm solidly in the middle class. I'm not poor because I CHOOSE not to be, and I work to make sure of that. I've worked since I was 14 years old. I worked hard in college, got a degree that allows me to earn a living. I paid for college by earning scholarships for my grades and by taking loans. I paid those loans back.
Now, I have BEEN poor in the past because of bad decisions. I've had my lights shut off. I've even had my car repossessed. Never once did I blame Wall Street, or the rich, or anyone but myself. I worked through it.
This constant liberal message of telling people that someone else is keeping them down, and that they can't help themselves is what drives a mentality to destroy the lives of others instead of building a life for themselves. Barack Obama and Ted Strickland are driving America over a cliff into a bottomless pit of debt with their Occupy Wall Street campaign of blaming the rich.
Instead of encouraging people to solve their own problems, Strickland tells Ohioans to blame someone else at the first sign of trouble in their lives. You should be ashamed of yourself, Ted Strickland.

HA! Teddy needs to do some fact checking. Teddy my boy, , you need to realize that the upper 1% pays 50% of the tax. The bottom 50% of the wealth or lack of it, pays nothing. I'm one who is poor and pays nothing. I wish I had to pay taxes but I'm disabled can't work at a job. It is not my fault that just happens to be the facts. I suggest you quit trying to suck up to the OWS and get your facts straight.
ReplyDeleteI don't begrudge anybody who has used their brain and figured out how to make money. It sounds like you're jealous. Come on now, bend your back. Work a little harder, fill your sack. Pick up the cotton and take it to the gin, you need to finish before the winter sets in.
OWS needs to take a lesson from the ant – or, to quote it correctly, "go to the ant oh sluggard, observe her ways and be wise, which, having no chief, officer, or ruler, prepares her food in the summer and gathers her probation in the harvest. How long will you lie down, oh sluggard? When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and your property will come in like a vagabond and your need like an armed man."
