Just stop already. [View all]



My uncle will likely never speak to me again after I hit "reply all" to one of the fwd fwd fwd emails with the following....

**********************************************************

I am sick up to my eye balls of "Obama class warfare" " grab yur bootstraps" "poor people are really rich".

You know it's bull when you spew it. We could go through the whole wasted exercise of how the little bit of "free" food "wasted" in the belly of a "welfare queen" sure as hell isn't costing you your job or your house or your retirement. We could go through the whole routine of pointing out the vast majority of dole dollars go toward making upper class whites richer. We could go through the litany of all the ways the 1%ers suck at the government teet more than the rest of us put together.

You know damn well black people didn't take your little shitty ass jobs away because of "Affirmative action" and I don't for one minute believe you really think "anchor babies" are why you can't afford both gas for the F150 and a lush retirement.

No you don't. You know who did this. You know damn well.

Just stop already.
