Yet another rich, entitled, white moron with power.
Ugh, I only have one of those qualities. :-(
i wish whiteness brought us all the riches but it just don't work enough :(
with that being said these rich entitled morons should be put into FEMA camp staffed by Obama death panels. That election promise was never delivered.
Sorry, dummy.
Yikes, insult people for things they can change, not things they were born with
How about folks like that stop hoarding their money, use their white, rich entitlement to help others for a fucking change, not sleep through their education that was handed them, and learn to give a fuck? Seems to cover all the bases you're worried about, sport.
Ok buddy. Go ahead and use people's intrinsic properties (like race, or orientation, or gender, or medical status) as an insult. Very cool. Really supports the rest of the point you're making
Rich white entitled fucks, like the GOP, are the problem. Folks that take that point sideways in an attempt to negate it in are also the problem. Being a spin doctor to distract doesn't clarify, but obfuscates. I don't side with assholes like Patronis. I don't side with traitors like the GOP. I don't censor my disdain for those who suck rich folks off. It sounds more like a 'you' problem than a 'me' problem if that's how you take what I said. Buddy.
You are being a racist. You wouldnt speak of any other race or orientation like that. Thought I left racists on Reddit.
The rest of the points, the gop, the rich, the corrupt, the entitled. Yeah. I hate them too. I hate racists too as well.
