SocraticGadfly: Why does Rick Perry hate the unemployed?

February 27, 2009

Why does Rick Perry hate the unemployed?

We know he doesn’t believe in evolution, by some of the company he keeps, so he can’t believe that people are unemployed due to Social Darwinism.

Maybe, like some of his Religious Right friends, he believes in the success gospel, in prosperity theology, and so he thinks they’re cursed.

It’s clear, though, that he, along with fellow Southern Republican wingnut governors, hates the unemployed.

Let’s hope the 2010 elections give him a reason to hate himself.

And, if state unemployment eligibility rules get nationalized in the process, GREAT!
