We all know the Red Cross is smuggling kids in through the border.
Does this mean Jesus is coming back? Or is it just that Jesus ignores kids in school buses. But speaks with Cliven "Mule kick to the face" Bundy daily. Jesus told him to stop the that bus by any means necessary. Take that prisoner and drive them back across the border.
I tend to think that such expressions of gratitude are beyond the ken of the average teabagger. They are driven by racial, gender, and religious animus to such a degree that they are incapable of feeling such an emotion....and in its place, they feel only righteous entitlement.
ReplyDeleteIt's common, more so than I can stomach. It's painful to watch older people of my acquaintance argue that various minorities, many of whom have come here from various hellholes around the world and have worked VERY hard to get ahead, "don't know their place." That is the thinking that would refuse to acknowledge that thanks are a worthwhile or valid exercise, because the services provided were shared with "those" people, rather than being distributed to the "right" people.
We have to get past this as a nation. We need every brain and every body working at as close to full potential as possible, else we'll fall behind. Even in authoritarian countries like China, or poor countries like India, there is at least some recognition that recognizing human potential is an imperative that crosses economic and class lines, if not necessarily color and gender.
