As you watch President Obama take from the producers and give to the non-producers, as you witness the enormous government power-grab of the private sector and the ever-enlarging nanny-state, one might wonder what Abraham Lincoln would have to say.

Well, here is a quote from Mr. Lincoln that clearly shows how selfish and small Barrack Obama is:

“You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich.”

“You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.”

“You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift.”

“You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.”

“You cannot further the brotherhood of man by inciting class hatred.”

“You cannot build character and courage by taking away people’s initiative and independence.”

“You cannot help people permanently by doing for them, what they could and should do for themselves.”

As Postalforum.com points out, “It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats — yet they are still poor.” Click here for the top ten list.

California and New York are choking on entitlement funding and the inability to say NO.

I sincerely hope the young people of this nation are paying attention.
