Marxist Democrat Donna Edwards wants to spread the wealth around. Donna Edwards represents the fourth congressional district of Maryland which includes portions of Prince George’s County and Anne Arundel County and is in the suburbs or Washington DC. Today on Fox News Sunday, when questioned about the riots in Baltimore and high crime rate, Donna Edwards pulled an Obama and said the wealth is ‘unevenly spread’ or something. That’s the reason Baltimore’s high crime rate, high unemployement riots, and riots take place there or something.

“I think it’s been unevenly spread,” Edwards said of, presumably, liberalism. “I would say, for example with our schools, just prior to the Freddie Gray incident, Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake was actually prevailing upon our Republican governor to release money for school funding.”
That makes sense. A GOP governor in office for four months prior to this latest outbreak of unrest is clearly to blame. To most neutral observers, it seems conflicting to argue that urban minorities have been neglected and abused for decades, and yet a GOP governor who hasn’t been in office for 18 weeks is responsible for this latest spasm of violence.
That didn’t stop Edwards from arguing that more spending and wealth redistribution – e.g. the Democratic platform – is the only cure for what ails Baltimore.
When Wallace noted that Baltimore spends the third highest amount per capita on its public schools “and the schools were still lousy,” Edwards declined to speculate on where that money was going. She merely asserted that it had been improperly allocated.
“Well, there’s uneven spending in the public schools,” Edwards insisted. “We have a lot of questions to ask, and they’re not questions that are only for Republicans… about where we’re going to make investments in our communities, so that the only investment isn’t on the backend in law enforcement.”
I’ll be fair here to Donna Edwards and Obama. It’s not just them who spew wealth distribution crap like this. It’s ALL progressive liberal Democrats, regardless of color.
