Ahhh, shit, Mitt! I apologize for once being part of that loser 47%. You see, rich boy ... [View all]

while you were bravely risking life and limb riding your fucking bicycle around France, trying to convince French people to stop drinking wine; I was kicking back in the A Shau Valley. I got nicked twice, Mitt. The first one was not much more than a flesh wound, but the second one damned near punched my ticket. I wound up at Walter Reed AMC, getting a little free health care and sucking on the government teat.
And can you believe it? Afterward, I was so fucking useless that I actually took advantage of my VA benefits and the GI Bill. I gradually healed, and thanks to the docs and nurses became as good as new. I went on to use my GI benefits to graduate from UNC-Chapel Hill with a degree in education. (I got my Masters in Education from William and Mary on my own dime.)
I taught for 32 years, retired, and now substitute every day. By the way, I paid taxes in every one of those years. (Care to prove that you have done the same, asswipe?)
Kiss my ass, Romney. You're a lying, pampered, privileged, elitist, smegma smear. Nobody likes you, and nobody believes a word you say.
