"40% of the Fortune 500 Companies were founded by immigrants or sons of immigrants. Meanwhile the list of worstest Americans are primarily blue blooded 100% American jerks. USA, USA, USA. You just cannot get more American than Yale Alumni Bush Sr.; Yale Alumni, Cheney; Yale Alumni Bush Jr; Roger Ailes, and John Birch Founding Father The Kochs, and then Rush Limbaugh and his cohorts."

I'll admit that I was baited, only to verify that your quote was lifted in its entirety from the article. Yep. It actually says this:

This moron probably earned a dime from my incredulousness. I feel dirty as a result.
