Why does the Right just tell the unemployed to just get a job?

In their minds, 25 million unemployed people just means 25 million lazy people. It's as if Right-wingers all have access to a magical job land where jobs just grow on trees!

Update:

The Grim Reality: LOL, THATS A GOOD ONE!!

Now please, let's stick to facts here ;)

Update 2:

Pepper: Nice to see the GOP at it again with its ad hominem attacks.

Next time you should answer the question as it's asked. Notice how this is a "WHY" question (that is, explain -- something the GOP hates to do) and is not a yes or no question. Thanks for playing, try again!!

    The worst part is they do that while filibustering every jobs bill that comes before them and doing everything in their power to slow the economic recovery.

    Bain is shipping some more jobs overseas. Just saw a story on it. Those people, some of whom worked at that plant for 40 years. Are they “lazy?”

    Conservatives are children. It’s the only explanation.

    The Right never wants to look at the Big Picture. They prefer to offer simple minded solutions to complex problems.

    Wow, conservatives do not say that, everyone is the victim of the bad economy with no jobs, did you ever think that if we had much less immigrants then we would have more jobs? Government was who let them in knowing we'd be out of jobs. You must not be in So. California, no jobs here.

    That's not true. The ones that are lazy and think that the USA will pay for them, we tell to get a job. The ones that are trying to get a job and are hard working, we try to help. It all depends on the situation.

    Because getting a job is easy if you just get off of your @$$.

    Don't worry Liberals, if worst comes to worst you can just go to Sweden and withdraw money from your bank accounts like me and Willard.

    And we don't need taxes for social welfare... Taxes are the devil!!! Charity will take care of EVERYTHING... I bet they don't have that where you're from eh libs (KENYA)???

    EDIT:

    WHO NEEDS FACTS??? We conservatives have faith!
