Here’s the interview you’ll never see.

“I voted for the con men in the Democrat party. They promised me benefits that they knew would never be possible and stole money like crazy from the city treasury to finance their lavish lifestyle. Now, I’m in trouble because I believed that there was a free lunch. I don’t believe that I should be held responsible for voting for people that I knew were thieves. I believed that the Democrat thieves would steal enough for me to retire on. How was I supposed to know that my electing thieves to office in Detroit would make taxpayers leave Detroit? I’m stupid and greedy. Doesn’t that mean you should feel sorry for me and give me some of your money? Yes, I will continue to vote Democrat. They look out for me.”

“I don’t believe that I should be held responsible for voting for people that I knew were thieves.”

Well, a few weeks ago some high end financial guy wrote just that about the citizens of Detroit in the NY Times, no less.

I wish I could think of his name, which was slightly familiar to me iirc. It wasn’t Robert Reich, I know that. But some other lib dem.

He actually wrote that what was happening in Detroit was like a natural catastrophe and other than voting (for his party btw) for all these decades the folks there bore no responsibility for what was happening.

It was so immensely stupid that even the readers/commentators at the Times were giving him heck over it.

And let’s please not ever let the media off the hook. They have a constitutionally mandated responsibility to inform the public but do we think the Detroit Free Press ever ran stories revealing: Dem Pols make phony promises, no one should believe a word they say?

Of course not, no more than they ran stories revealing: Obama lying about keeping you insurance/doctors, etc.

Instead we have in depth, front page coverage of a prank Romney played in High School, they’ll flood the zone over Bristol Palin’s pregnancy, and they’ll just make up stuff about McCain having an affair. Three examples chosen from innumerable others.

So, if we are placing blame, and blame needs to be placed, let’s not let the 4th Estate off the hook.
