“It sure is. It is a real shame. Kindof defeats the notion of “compassionate conservative”, doesn’t it?”
More like it reinforces the idea of closed mindedness.
It amazes me the number of American’s who have dropped the Can Do attitude of their forefathers for the “It’s impossible” attitude of your average loser.
But it’s really depressing to see it among those who call themselves conservatives.
I agree with you that there are alot of closed minded people posting.
While I also agree that Americans have lost their “can do” spirit, the issue here isn’t about that. There are still plenty of us who have the “can do” attitude, as demonstrated towards our trying to manage our weight. It’s depressing that there are so many who can’t believe that it can’t be anything other than overeating, and they call themselves conservatives.
BTW, thank you for your service!
