The following three statements will tell  you a lot about our present government and our culture:

We are advised not to judge all Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics; but, we are encouraged to judge all gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.  Funny how that works.

And another statement for consideration.

We constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money.  How come we never hear about welfare running out of money?  What is interesting is the first group “worked for” their money – but the second did not.

Finally,

The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free meals and food stamps ever – to 47 million people according to the most recent 2013 statistics.  Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us, “PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS.”  The stated reason for this policy is because, “The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.”

Thus ends today’s lesson on irony!
