To many, it's hardly a revelation to most, but when someone keeps taking the same action over and over again, even to his detriment, it can reveal a lot about that individual's belief system.

I was watching something last night and the talking heads were saying they couldn’t figure out why Obama has ANOTHER stimulus package.

I can’t figure out why they can’t figure it out.

It’s his philosophy, the way that he functions. He is unable to move beyond it. IMHO, he keeps thinking if he can only do it the right way, it will work.

He is unable to deal with even the thought that his whole approach is wrong.

My son is of a different opinion, he thinks its a Cloward-piven thing and he’s purposely trying to wreck everything.
