- I'm always amused when people point fingers.
- "They" (e.g. Pres. Clinton) say,
-
- "It's his fault!
- The child is a gang member because
- his dady is a deadbeat scofflaw who
- never gave child support."
-
- Do these people feel better when they shift
- the blame to this (often) absent person?
-
- Shall we riot and burn the "Wallet Parent"
- to solve all our problems?
-
- Our nation feels better when it socks-it-to
- these "oppressive" males to "empower" the women.
- But the Blame tossing only helps to avoid the
- real issues of personal responsibility.
