He had a difficult time grasping the concept of what Romney had said, that a large percentage of Americans are content to remain on the government dole. \u201cJust a blogger\u201d Sister Toldjah took some time to set him straight:\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> 92% of Americans say hard work is the key to success. Look around at our country. Hardest-working people on earth.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> look at #OWS<\/a>, & “war on women” meme, & the battle over Obamacare & seniors. Ppl being victims. That’s half of America, Terry.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> politicos paint themselves as “saviors” of ppl “victimized by society.” Some ppl start believing it. This is a cold reality.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> Plus, most government benefits go to GOP voters. You can look it up. But the vast majority of Americans hustle. That’s us.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> you look it up. This is not abt hustle. This is abt a segment of society conditioned to feel like victims by ppl who want power.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> Maybe if you reported on the ground around the country, you’d have more patriotism about our people.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> questioning my patriotism is out of line. I love the US & independence & want less 2 feel like victims & more to thrive w\/o govt\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n.@TerryMoran<\/a> questioned my patriotism because I want fellow citizens who believe they are victims to rise above & thrive w\/o nanny statism.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> Sister, seniors vote GOP. Married women, too. OWS showed they are a minority. Most middle-class Americans work really hard.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> I AM middle class as is my family, Terry, but even in my own family some play victim cards. I want them to do better than that.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> “A segment.” 47%? Do you really have such little faith in your fellow Americans? Vets? College students? Single moms?Seniors?\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> isn’t abt faith. Most ppl want to work. Within that are those conditioned by politicos to feel like victims. We can do better.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> That’s paternalism. Most people think for themselves just as well as you or I do.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> no it’s not. Ppl over time hear the same thing from politicos abt needing to be rescued. It sinks in. It happened to me.No more.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> why do you think it’s unpatriotic for me to want ALL to thrive w\/o nanny statism? That’s real freedom, & you should support it.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> All of us want that. But to believe nearly half of your fellow citizens think they’re victims? That sells America shortly.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@TerryMoran<\/a> what has sold U.S. short are politicos who use victim\/savior rhetoric. It’s politicos who don’t have faith in citizens, not me.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\n@sistertoldjah<\/a> Anyway, thank you for a spirited and smart discussion.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Terry Moran (@TerryMoran) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\nDid I just go through that? Bizarre how it’s even necessary to explain how U want ppl to reject nanny statism, & instead thrive as individuals.\r\n\r\n\u2014 Stacey-SisterToldjah (@sistertoldjah) September 18, 2012<\/a>\r\n\r\nYes. Yes, you did. And we thank you.\r\n\r\nRead more: http:\/\/twitchy.com\/2012\/09\/18\/real-reporter-terry-moran-gets-worked-up-over-secret-romney-video-blogger-sets-him-straight\/<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
