If You Aren't Bitter and Angry, You're Not Alive
Or at least you're not American. Small town America. Urban America. Rural America. We have all been royally fucked by 25 years of Reagan Repulican policies, and let's be honest. Bill Clinton's admin. moderated some of that, but did not change the fundamentals. No new MAJOR investments in social infrastructure, health care, education, and job training, were ever made under his presidency.

If we cannot accept honest discourse in our politics, then we are royally fucked as a nation, and you delusional Hillary supporters, looking for any lifeline, should be ashamed of yourselves.

1. Hillary might have

But she trots out GOP talking points straight from the failed Romney campaign.

5. True...
...the conversation starts with "Are you bitter?"

And continues when people start to look at whether or not they can afford to put anything in the collection plate because they don't have a job.

Or if they believe a having a job would prevent them from being able to afford a day off to go to target practice.

It's priorities.
