— DrewM I turned on my TV and this greeted me. Scared the hell out of me.
He's speaking to the Democrats core constituency...public sector union "workers". Watch it all the way through to see who Biden and Obama think are the heart of America.
No Slow Joe, taxpayers provide all of those things. People who go to work, who start businesses who pay the bill for those things, make them possible.
The Democrats simply look at the private sector as a piggy bank to rob to pay off their supporters and in turn those supporters fund Democratic campaigns.
Biden thinks we should thank these workers for that privilege.
Romney should be all over this.

As you watch the clip, remind yourself that Republican lawmakers across America have the ability to cut AFSCME membership in half by simply ending the automatic deduction of union dues from goverment emplyee paychecks, as Wisconsin did.
When that happens, no more fiery speeches from sitting vice presidents.

Don't try to define the American Dream for me, asshole. I don't want "a little bit of money for my retirement." I want an empire of income-producing assets that will keep me and my family in the style that I want, not what you have decided is "enough" for me.
And as a side benefit, my legacy will continue to provide a living for generations of families. But you sorry motherfuckers see that as deserving of punishment and opprobrium.

Once it's time for me to retire, I want my biggest worry to be whether my grandchildren will have not learned the value of working hard and saving because of my money.

The biggest driver of wealth envy is an absolute ignorance of how wealth is created, moved, classified, accounted for and how it flows in and out. Financial literacy is not taught in school. You have to do it yourself. Most times, the first step is in gaining financial literacy for yourself.

For the most part, sure. However, if that Romney / Foy story is even half-right, it's not unreasonable to hope for a Nixon-to-China event in Romney's presidency. If there ever were to be someone to try an clean up the WallStreet + Fed mess, he would know exactly how that shit is ruining us.

That's the silver lining in an Obama win. After another 4 years, the damage will be so obvious and apparent, and the responsibility so unduckable that even the dimmest bulb will start to get the message.
Four more years of Obama will be the most "teachable moment" that's happened in all of American history. The hard lessons of that pain would reverberate in elections for decades to come.

Fine, if you want to spend the rest of your life in a Third World hellhole run by our own equivalent of Papa Doc Duvalier, Robert Mugabe, the Kim Family and assorted Muzzie terrorists, all rolled into one whiny and petulant nobody.
If you think a "teachable moment" is more valuable than our survival, then go to it: put your check mark by Bark Obama's name.
It is past time to impeach the Traitor-in-Chief and send a sizable majority of Congress to the glue factory. I know a whole host of "conservative" pundits disagree (and I hope it's because they are looking at their hit counters and not because they are pathetic eunuchs as I suspect) but we are beyond the circling-the-drain stage now.
Four more years of the same treasonous shit will bring the United States of America to the end of the road.
