I dont see anything in that quote that isnt really true, except that there are probably a small amount of the 47% that truly take responsibility for themselves and would rather not be on the govt dole. I guess it remains to be seen if those will take offense or just realize that one would probably only take offense because the sting of rebuke is the truth. Those that are happy to be sucking from the teets of the taxpayers are those who BO is buying votes from by continuing to extort from those of us that pay income taxes.

and those "sucking from the teets of the taxpayers" are living SO large... I'm just so envious that I would rather spend my time bitching about it from my white steed than actually thinking about what justification I have to judge someone based on stereotypical fluff from FOX News... Cry me a river because those teets are dry from my perspective.

At what point in your rant are you going to realize that you have no idea where I came from and why I would come to that conclusion? I will give you a hint, I don't have a white steed and I come from a poor family. As for the heart of the matter, I stand by my statement. Like I said before, the sting of rebuke is the truth. I don't know your personal situation. But, if you are taking it personal as it sounds in your response, then I would certainly suggest that you are feeling nothing more than the sting of rebuke I mentioned in my last response.
