68. Send To An Apologist In Your Life.

Mon Apr 15, 2013, 03:46 PM

Apr 2013

Tom Tomorrow is brilliant x1000. The firm apologists just won't budge, Obama has a core of supporters that would stick with him no matter what, who can rationalize anything he does or says as he protects the plutocracy and asks the struggling to sacrifice. God forbid some multi millionaire would have to get by with 311 million rather than 347 million, better that Granny learns to like cat food.

Nice that he also took a nice shot at Friedman and Brooks and their word salad gobbledygook.
