4. Erin Burnett Is A Brainless Shill for Corporate America |
|
She has no skills nor intelligence of her own, so the only way she can make a living is to shill for corporate America. CNBC is the CEO suck up channel.

7. She Aint Even That Hot |
|
To nerdy, never even touched a real woman, kind of man, she's hot. But to real men, she's meh.
To me, she comes across as overly high maintenance and emotionally dead inside.

10. Burnett Is Turned On By Things... |
|
not emotions which is why she's such a good shill. When you care more about designer shoes than people dying because of a lack of healthcare, you are emotionally dead inside, and that does not make her cute, not one bit.
The only kind of men turned on by such a woman are greedy fucks who can only get women like Erin because of their money, which is also why they skimp on healthcare for their workers.
This is all a part of a narcisstic, ruthless, and psychopathic American corporate culture that's killing us every goddam day.
To which I say, legalize prostitution and affix a standard price so that the soulless can buy and fuck each other, and leave the rest of us alone.

Of course... it probably helps her credibility when she talks about things I don't understand particularly anyway... it makes her seem rather smart when I watch... win win (though I'm apparently wrong on both counts.. d'oh).

14. That's one of the Grand No Party's talking points. |
|
They take the 47 million and deduct all us "rich" folks who just don't feel like buying insurance, the young people who would rather by ipods and, of course, the millions upon millions of "illegals" they're so afraid might get a free bandaid. What absolute, total morons.

15. They come up with that figure |
|
by removing illegal immigrants, (like they don't need insurance), and they subtract people who make over $50,000 a year, and they subtract anyone who might only be uninsured while temporarily out of a job, etc etc etc.

Speaking as one of those "only 8.2 million" uninsured people, all I can say to Erin Burnett is a big, hearty "FUCK YOU!!!". This is supposed to be the wealthiest country on the plant, allegedly with the "best health care in the World." ONE uninsured person is too many in my book.
