If Ms. Obama wants to help people she can donate most of her income, downgrade to a small house and a Honda and live like an "average American."
She can start by giving me 20% of her annual income. I can live off of that.
Oh wait?... you didn't really think SHE and her husband were going to be the ones sacrificing for the "common-good" did you?
Oh, and the idea that her and Barack had trouble paying off student loans had he not written his books is ludicrous. They were making $200-250K/yr minimum.
"The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more."
Miss Taggart, do you know the hallmark of the second - rater? It's resentment of another man's achievement. Those touchy mediocrities who sit trembling lest someone's work prove greater than their own -- they have no inkling of the loneliness that comes when you reach the top. The loneliness for an equal - for a mind to respect and an achievement to admire. They bare their teeth at you from out of their rat holes, thinking you take pleasure in letting your brilliance dim them - while you'd give a year of your life to see a flicker of talent anywhere among them. They envy achievement, and their dream of greatness is a world where all men have become their acknowledged inferiors. They don't know that that dream is infallible proof of mediocrity, because that sort of world is what the man of achievement would not be able to bear. They have no way of knowing what he feels when surrounded by inferiors - hatred? No, not hatred, but boredom - the terrible, hopeless, draining, paralyzing boredom. Of what account are praise and adulation from men whom you don't respect? Have you ever felt the longing for someone you could admire? For something, not to look down at, but up to?
Be polite, please. (also I'd like to add that I reserve the right to delete any and all comments that I find offensive, argumentative, or just plain tiresome.)

I'm still writing in Fred at this moment.

ReplyDeleteHer pie is a cow-pie.
ReplyDeleteYou DID read what your hero rachl lukis had to say about that, yes?
ReplyDeleteplease use a dull rusty fecal covered fork with exceptionally thick tines.
ReplyDeleteYou can't honestly believe that Hillary or McCain are thinking much differently at this point.
ReplyDeleteI'll share a little something my grandpa used to tell me. "All politicians are crooks in some way."
