For one thing, That *urp* *kaacccck* Jerk does, in fact, rely upon the poor..........

whether or not he consciously knows that he is doing so.

For second thing, the propandist who wrote the script is clearly a humiliated , beaten truebeliever who is on salary to write memes for the brainwashed.

You could call it Sing Along With Mitch or......... Hrm, I'm stuck on a creative insult for the Bonester.......


Well, feel free to help me out on that....

One just has to know how to interpret what they say.

If you blame President Obama for the sequestration, then choose an item from column one.

On the other hand, if you blame the Republicans for the looming economic cliff, choose an item from column two.

There is no inconsistency.

I'm talking new nuke plant licenses, assault weapons and other NRA "A" rated items, and his pet "riverfront park" project in Columbia, SC which is nothing more than a real estate boondoggle.
