THANK YOU! Jimmy Carter's grandson, James Carter 4th

[calimary]

8. We may very well owe the election results to this man.

And also to the unsung hero who videotaped those mitt remarks (remitts?) in the first place. Can't leak something that doesn't exist!

That slam-dunked it for our side, I think, now in hindsight. It was one of the easiest buzz phrases to embrace. The 47% number surpassed the common usage of the 99% figure that was dominant in the headlines a year ago. It was so key that this phrase was, indeed, named the Yale Book of Quotations Quote of the Year!

It's helped feed OUR side's narrative of who and what mitty-boy really was, and what he really believed when he was among his own kind and thought he was free to be completely candid. Because soon enough he opened his yap again and just gave us all a good old-fashioned "I Told You So." THIS was the bedrock. The foundational statement of this generation of GOP. Notice how since the advent of paul ryan on the national stage, the phrase "makers and takers" has suddenly been wafting through the air a lot more frequently like a bad smell? That's not just the back end of some Wisconsin state bean-eating competition, either. I have actually seen it on cable news - where there are people nodding in agreement when that clip is played. Usually it's some CON operative talking head on one of the talk shows. This isn't just what wrongney believes. This isn't just what paul ryan believes. This is what an entire SYNDROME of them believes. Hundreds and hundreds of thousands of them believe this. Maybe it's millions and millions. They actually believe this distorted stuff. And never is the sense of entitlement in the Red States included in this.

And until this clip surfaced, this DAMNING clip, there was no hard proof. wrongney was always slippery enough to dodge and deny. But not this time, or with this one.

James Earl Carter the 4th - is a national hero! This will be the gift that keeps on giving, because you'll never see this clip go away. It'll be hauled out at every possible opportunity and keep on paying us dividends as long as we choose to make strategic use of it.
