Obama: “We are our brother’s keeper. We are our sister’s keeper.”
I don’t mind when a preacher says that, or a priest, or a rabbi. But when a politician says it...

He cited a number of cases of people who were overcome with bills and for them the kind of hope he offered wasn’t “empty” I tuned in midsentence but I believe the first victim he cited was having trouble paying for their tuition and paying for the health care bills of an ailing sibling. Having a hard time paying for your own tuition? Welcome to the real world. It is unreasonably expensive, but no one paid a cent for my private school tuition except me. How did this sibling manage their finances before they became ill? Do they have kids they can’t afford? Did they squander their money on feelgood items instead of insurance and now they can’t cover the bills? Perhaps not, but the question is worth asking. Another person cited *suddenly* couldn’t afford their mortgage...gee, I wonder how. I know, I’ve got my broad brush out. Not everyone who falls on hard times is irresponsible, but I wonder if most of those he (and Hillary) are pandering to haven’t brought it upon themselves. I hear his tearjerking speech and just have to ask these questions...
