What the fucking shit!
An already-millionaire Republican politician (Judd Gregg) won over $800,000 in the fucking Powerball lottery?

Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

2. You'd think...
If I was already a millionaire, number one I wouldn't be playing the lottery and number two I would publically say that I'd be giving the money to a charity or something. Nah. He was just smiling away.

While the rich get richer...

16. It's an investment. That's all they care about. Think about it.

Our repubbie-poopy-pants there probably spent $5,000 on tickets. That's NOTHING to him. Where to any of us that's ~6 months' worth of shelter payments.

6. It's a good substitute to use
in public or when in a situation where it's not the best idea to use curse words.

Instead of saying "shit" or "fuck" I say


JESUS, MARY AND JOSEPH! HEE HEE! :)

9. Well, why should he?
I mean, he's all ready earned his money and he used that money he earned to buy the ticket. No pregnant with 10 kid black unmarried mother from Nawlins deserves a dime of his money. This is America. Why do you hate America?

Why do so many moonbats on this website hate America. You all are silly libruls.

:sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

Truth of the matter is: he won, what he does with the money is his own judgment; yet I'm taken aback that a millionaire would still play the lotto. :shrug:

12. Why did my baseball coach smoke even though he was a ticking time bomb?
I think it's the same thing: habit. He doesn't need to worry about the buck he tosses for the lotto tickets. So, I dunno. Who puts on this Powerball stuff?

15. It's called greed. No matter how much money they have, they want more.

17. But remember ...
It's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingom of God. (Matthew 19:24) Hmmm? They think they're so holy ...
