“It is a general popular error to suppose the loudest complainers for the public to be the most anxious for its welfare.”

After listening to the children of New Orleans flood victims whine that nobody is helping them and we must help them now, it is obvious they will take any and all welfare sent their way, regardless of their need.

Most of the loudest complaints are used as a diversion from the root causes of the so-called problems for which there is a complaint.

No Shite! Take a closer look at the big stick press.

About the quote---It is one more support for the idea that we do not learn from the experience of others. Burke knew what he knew more than 200 years ago; and it has benefited us not a bit.

Foremost among whom, latter day Pharisees of the retrograde left of the ilk of W. J. & H. Clinton, B. Hussein & M. Obama, N. Pelosi, R. Durbin, C. Schumer, J. Jackson, H. Weinstein, A. Sharpton, et al, ad infinitum.

David and Patrick said it well.
