That money could have fed, clothed, and housed her family for a long time while she got her life in order. She had job interviews she never showed up for, and threw away all that money for a few months of living the high life.

I still think the original charges against her were over the top, but I don't feel a lot of sympathy for her now.



And then comes the...

Aren't you precious.
              

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Is it possible that there are people out there who are even stupider than the DUmmies?  Anything is possible, I guess.

Sort of, but you have to add a third dimension to make a tetrahedron.  In the case of DUmmies, you could find something stupider I suppose, but you'd have to add a fourth, fifth, or sixth dimension.

This is true. Most people in America are not as smart as you DUmbasses. Most people in America are much smarter than you DUmbasses. This includes the ones John Gruber was referring to when talking about the (Un)Affordable Care Act.

A couple of things my ignorant, uneducated father used to say.

1-You just can't help some people.

2-No matter how much you give some people, the more they want and expect you to give them.

3-Some people just can't handle money.

My old man should have had a PhD in "Stupid People"....or....."Understanding the DUmmie Mind".

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Apparently the word "Smart" means something different on the island than it does in the rest of America, and seems to encompass a wider variety of failings such as being terminally unemployable, dependency on some form of disability payments and/or relatives for sustenance, an inability to connect actions and consequences, primarily emotional thinking, impulse control problems, and a pathological desire to tell others what to think on any given topic.
