Notice a trend? [View all]

I don't have what I want because of the corrupt EU.

I don't have what I want because of the mean black president.

I don't have what I want because of NAFTA.

I don't have what I want because of the big banks.

I don't have what I want because of people who shouldn't be here.

Funny how those who think that blame everyone and everything . . . . . . . EXCEPT for themselves.
