Isn't it a Pity So true in today's it's all about me Culture

&feature=related














Isn't it a pity, now, isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts and cause each other pain
How we take each other's love, without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back, isn't it a pity

Some things take so long but how do I explain
Not too many people, can see we're all the same
And because of all the tears, their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them, isn't it a pity

Isn't it a pity, isn't is a shame
How we break each other's hearts and cause each other pain
How we take each other's love, without thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back, isn't it a pity

Forgetting to give back, isn't it a pity
Forgetting to give back, now, isn't it a pity

Oh, what a pity, what a pity, pity, pity
Oh, what a pity, what a pity, pity, pity
Oh, what a pity, what a pity, pity, pity
...

all I will say about the hideous way people treat the Poor in this Country










If I could be you, if you could be me for just one hour
If we could find a way to get inside each other's mind, mh
If you could see you through my eyes instead of your ego
I believe you'd be surprised to see that you've been blind, mh

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
Hey, before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

Now your whole world you see around you is just a reflection
And the law of common says you're gonna reap just what you sow
So unless you've lived a life of total perfection
You'd better be careful of every stone that you should throw - yeh-heh
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/j/joe_south/walk_a_mile_in_my_shoes.html ]
And yet we spend the day throwin' stones at one another
'Cause I don't think or wear my hair the same way you do, mh
Well, I may be common people but I'm your brother
And when you strike out you're tryin' to hurt me it's hurtin' you
Lord, have mercy

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
Babe, before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes

And there are people on reservations and out in the ghettos
And brother, there, but for the grace of God, go you and I, yeh-heh
And if I only had wings of a little angel, well
Don't you know, I'd fly to the top of a mountain and then I'd cry

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
Babe, before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Better walk a mile in my shoes
Try before what you're doing

Walk a mile in my shoes, walk a mile in my shoes
Oh, before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Walk a mile in my shoes...

Before you Judge what a person buys with an ebt card Consider this

unemployment and child support go to ebt cards in many states now so someone you see buying beer with an EBT card may be a single mother who finally got back support from her worthless tea bagger ex She probably works fulltime and spends all her money supporting her kids.

Being a Liberal carries a personal responsibility!!!

To help those who can't help themselves

The Democratic Party

the Party of Personal Responsibility

"For everyone to whom much is given, of him shall much be required." -- Luke 12:48 Is this verse in The Conservative Bible?

How about the 25th Chapter of Matthew is that in their Bibles?


Matthew 25:31-46
New International Version (NIV)
The Sheep and the Goats

31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

41 “Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’

44 “They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’

45 “He will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’

46 “Then they will go away to eternal punishment, but the righteous to eternal life.”

Do think the TeaOP would recognize Jesus?

If Jesus walked up to them he'd look more like President Obama than any of their heroes. They would cuss him out and mock him. I was raised Catholic went to Catholic Schools. Back then almost all of the Catholics I knew were Democrats I had a really cool nun in 7th grade religion tell me Jesus would surprise lots of artists his skin would be darker and his eyes would almost certainly be brown. It makes much more sense than the rights version of him with blond hair blue eyes

Ohio is taking help away from desperate families

http://www.dispatch.com/content/stories/editorials/2012/08/25/ohio-is-taking-help-away-from-desperate-families.html


Tens of thousands of Ohio children are being raised in families that have no cash income. They struggle to survive on a small allotment of food stamps, which can be spent only on food. They have no cash for rent, utilities, clothing, transportation or personal-care products.

And while the situation is tragic, Ohio is making it worse through policies designed to take assistance away from families in need.

Since January 2011, the number of people receiving cash-assistance welfare in Ohio has been reduced by more than 75,000. Of the people who no longer receive benefits, nearly 44,000 are children. This is a reduction of nearly one-third of the state’s caseload, and it is happening at a time when the number of people living in poverty is growing.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that at least 18 percent of all food-stamps recipients in Ohio have no cash income. That is equal to more than 320,000 people.

Most families are not leaving the cash-assistance program because they are doing better financially. Caseloads are decreasing because families are being removed or diverted from the program, contrary to the program’s goals.

Ohio has been threatened with $130 million in sanctions by the Obama administration for failing to meet work-participation-rate targets. Ohio’s response has been to reduce the rolls of cash-assistance recipients by any means possible.

The majority of families being pushed off of assistance in Ohio are facing health problems, a lack of transportation and other significant challenges. In fact, 78 percent of the adults who receive cash assistance do not own a vehicle. And thanks to large cuts in funding, most counties do not provide the financial assistance needed by recipients to get to their work assignments.
