There is always a blame others mentality at play here. A lot of us have had a hard life or a hard beginning, but we have pulled ourselves up and made something of ourselves. It’s the liberal mindset. It’s also the way therapy is done in many cases. I’ve sought help for some of my problems — and I had to fight off that constant mantra from some therapists to blame my parents. When you get into that, you start blaming everyone for everything. My parents did the best they could — they made mistakes — but good grief, I’m over 50 now. Way past time to stop blaming the past and blaming everyone else and move on. Rosie seems to not be able to do that. And she’s not alone.

Unfortunately, if the Dems take over the White House, there will be more and more of this “blame thing,” the nanny state will take over and no one will be responsible for anything.

Ain't that the truth! You can probably identify with the title of a magazine article I saw many years ago: "Your Parents May Have Made You What You Are Today ... but it's your fault if you stay that way."
