The Audacity of Obama!

The week after Obama informed small business owners that they weren't any smarter and didn't work any harder than anybody else and that they didn't build their businesses, somebody else did, he hosted the national champion Baylor Lady Bears at the White House.

He said he could not be prouder of them. I don't know why. They didn't get that championship. Somebody else did that for them. He said they worked hard throughout the summer. I imagine the other teams worked hard throughout the summer, too. He said they earned their reputation. No they didn't. Somebody else gave that to them. They had a good coach, they got scholarships, they went to school on roads built by the government, they flew on planes regulated by the FAA, they ate food inspected by the USDA. They didn't do anything except accept the accolades. 

At least, if Obama is consistent in his philosophy, that's the case.
