A 1%er shamelessly asserting that he'll do his damnedest to make sure wealthy people get even wealthier and the non-wealthy will have the shaft further driven up.

I don't know what's sadder: that this phony Four F tool is their leading candidate or that he's not leading by much over a rather stupid and homophobic man who's last name is Super-Glued to an internet joke.

Unbelieveable. And I thought Two-Term Bewsh was the pinnacle of American stupidity.

Is this where American politics has sunk?

Is this where we're at?

Are there still people on this board that think either of these guys has a chance at beating President Obama in an election? Really??? Please explain to me why, RIGHT NOW.
