Well…just a short one on a comment that ole Mitt made yesterday about his income from speakers fees that he made last year….when asked about the amount he replied “not much”…okay, Mitt, your not much was 374,000 dollars…374 K, which would put anyone else in the top 1% is just pocket change to ole Mitt…how can anyone who answers that 374K is “not much” ever understand what the 99% of us go through in our daily lives? This alone should disqualify Mitt form the presidency since the only people he can ever identify with are those of the silver spoon class; those that were born to wealth and have the delusion that they earned it…geez…
Okay, I’m going to add a little to this one about how out of touch many of our rich politician class is…if you remember, back in the 90′s when the elder George Bush walked into a grocery store and marveled at the price scanners that those of us that actually have to do our own grocery shopping had seen for many years…and, to be fair…there have been many of the patrician class of the dems that have done the same thing, I seem to remember one of the Kennedys who never carried money because they had people to do that for them…but the difference is that most of them really did care about the middle class and their legislative efforts showed it…none of the trickle-down nonsense that the repubs have pushed for the last 30 years…
