Post Rich People, God Bless Us


Just seemed kind of funny. Not the ideal soundbite for someone who wants to be the Dem nominee.

Don't worry, Hillary-supporters, this won't affect the race at all.

Is that it?

That short sound bite does nothing for me. Oh it would have been nice if OReilly was mind controlled to perform an action of serenity with a pencil just then...

Hillary's people are now saying "no, she said 'Rich People, God blessed us.'"

Not sure that's any better. Basically, she's saying "If you're poor, God hates you."

um, in contect, i don't see what the problem is. She's saying rich people, god bless us "that we have so much because it's our responsibility then to care for those that aren't rich"

Just like Clinton-ites are finding any way they can to trash Obama, his loyal followers are trying to find ways to trash her.

*sigh*

I think the wording is funny, but we know what her intent was, rich people have a social responsibility to help the poor.

That said the media harps on anything you say, twists it and makes it look worse then it is.

It would have been to say, being rich I am thankful to have been successful but part of success is giving back, blah blah.

Americans hear sounds bites, as the come home and flip past the news during dinner.

Anyone who actually gets to hear her words in context will not be offended, but its damn hard to hear anything anyone says in context watching the news.

This bugs me, because many people don't have/make the time to look up what each candidate really says.

High fructose corn syrup and sounds bites, to things I find evil.

I has an afertaste, I hate it, I don't understand why it has to be in everything.

Coke in the US sucks.

Yeah, it doesn't "quench my thirst" at all. I've found though when I drink Coke my complexion worsens. When I switch to Starbucks bottled Frappaccino's, it doesn't. I think some of it has to do with when I don't drink Coke I drink a lot more water...

Geesh finally got around to watching it. If anything, she should be applauded for her words. I mean...what's bad about it?? She's saying it is the wealthy's duty to pass on to the next generation!

Lol. Spinners. What next?

This is why I hate the JedReport, they completely over analyzed what she said and took it so far out of context. Oh well.

Its not what she said, its the sound bite in the Republican Attacks Ads that sounds weird.

Anyone with half a brain got what she said, given that they heard everything she said. Most people probably just hurt the sound bite.

Nothing wrong with that statement. Becoming rich is part of the American dream. The Clintons deserved their $109 million, paid their fair share of taxes, and gave an admirable amount to charity. They just have no business calling the son of a single mother elitist.
