38. The billionaires are on the war path
Tue Feb 9, 2016, 01:35 PM
Feb 2016

They have been ravaging us for some 40 years. Enough. We out number them 99 to one. She is right. The Dem party has been clawing its way up the ass of the billionaires since Carter was cheated out of his presidency. Since Reagan made illegal arms deals. The people are ready to come together. Leave behind the fox news bots, the bigots ,leave the evangelical terrorists behind. Let the ugly Americans scream all the like. We are the majority. All we have to do is show up and vote. .......hopefully.
