Democrat Urges People To Become Republicans To Get Rich

I don't even know where to begin with this latest nonsensical speech by Florida Democrat Alan Grayson, who appears to have some sixth graders acting as interns for him or something. Here are the points I got from this little diatribe.

1) The only way to get rich is to be a member of the Republican Party. Uh, isn't that sorta making the case for NOT voting for Democrats. Unless of course you like being poor, not that there is anything wrong with that.

2) Only 1% of Americans are Republicans. Really? Ever looked at the polling data and seen what percentage of those polled identify themselves as Republicans Mr. Grayson? Are all of them rich gazillionaires?

3) 99% of Americans go to work everyday and struggle to get by. Sheesh. Hey, Dumbo, the unemployment rate is 10%, so that knocks that right there and the purpose of the speech was to plead for extending unemployment benefits made necessary by the Democrats fiscal policies that have gotten us into this mess.

This guy is a clown and all he tries to do in this little speech is play the class warfare game where somehow all Republicans are rich and all Democrats are poor. Every time I hear this line of reasoning it only leads me to the conclusion that if I want to be rich I had better be a Republican. BTW, in an article I found on the 50 richest members of Congress, 3 of the top 5 are Democrats, #1, #2, and #4 and 23 of the 50 were Democrats. But hey, this guy never lets facts get in the way of a good hate speech.



Nobody is really opposed to extending the unemployment benefits, you big idiot, all they want to know is how do you intend to pay for it?

I knew only allowing blunt nosed scissors in school would lead to this. Nobody knows to cut anything anymore.
