Usually this is the point where I try and defend the underdog here, but honestly hearing how much money he has just left over really pisses me off.
America isn't retarded, it's this guy, and his fat fucking dumb shit family who need to swim in a pool of thousands and eat solid gold meals every day while some people are starving.
There's really no good point to try and defend here. Please someone take his job.

What really gets me is he's complaining about only earning 200,000 a year, when 25,000 a year would be such a dramatic upgrade for me, that I could give up Medicare, Medicaid, SSI, my housing voucher and foodstamps and not only be able to make ends meet, but have more money left over each month than I currently do. I can't begin to imagine what I'd do with 70,000 let alone 200,000.

It would be interesting to see just how much tax revenue is lost to loopholes. I haven't seen any statistics, but you're probably right about it being a drop in the bucket.
This is untrue, actually. Were were to eliminate all tax loopholes it would generate enormous amounts of money. For example, if we made investments taxed at the same rate as all other forms of income, it would be 20% of trillions of dollars a year.
Then there are the corporations which pay lower taxes or no taxes, compared to private individuals.
Many wealthy people pay a lower tax rate than people who are middle classed.
So yeah, it would make a big difference. Of course, one could argue how many are tax "loopholes" when they are intentional.

So the Speaker of the House cut off C-Span's mic and camera when a democrat asked for a vote on the Payroll tax cut. Guess the press isn't on the top of their list when it comes to the things they approve about the first amendment.

Dead baby jokes are back in style.
"Whoa whoa whoa! Hold on, Bob! My child was not stillborn!"
Technically true. He "played with it" for two hours and then it died.
My dog does that with rabbits sometimes.
RELATED EDIT: Apparently whoever produces that show "19 Kids and Counting" is continuing with this season pretending that what's-her-face doesn't have a miscarriage at the end. Kind of makes the "And Counting..." a little creepy, huh?

Maybe amateur backyard wrestling is not an appropriate way to play with a newborn.
At any rate, here's to biology granting him the pure joy of letting him think for a moment that his goof juice had produced something that wasn't crippled from the starting line and then snatching it right the fuck back.
Es muy bueno.

The sad part is that 90% of the people voting for these ultra rich republicans are the exact people that are getting shafted by republican policies, the lower and middle classes. I don't know how they keep getting reelected.
I suspect that the republican house of representatives has worked out that if they manage to stop all constructive legislation from passing and properly fuck over the economy, the voting public will blame obama, not them

Problem with that is, Quaddy, that same tactic was used against Clinton before he ran for second term. It ended up doing wonders for his campaign, because he could now officially blame every problem imaginable on Congress and they couldn't come up with a good explanation for why what they did was his fault.
As for the Republicans getting reelected, they're the experts at spinning and the public in general is too stupid to see through it. About 5 or 6 years ago (maybe less, I'm not actually counting) Republican governor of Missouri Matt Blunt said I no longer had a right to get glasses and dental work done. He spun it as him making excellent cuts on Medicaid and Medicare to protect the economy. Eventually they overturned the "medicaid doesn't pay for glasses" part, but I'll still have to pay out of pocket if I need to get a cavity filled. Surprisingly enough, his cuts were directly attributable to him and his spin failed. He didn't even bother running for reelection at that point.

I'm not sure, but it isn't that big of a loss since there are a couple dozen dentists in the area who cater exclusively to the super poor. In fact, I know of one who does it on pure morality; he's definitely competent to say the least. Pulling a tooth? One buck. Otherwise, 25 bucks for the visit. Oh, if politicians could think like him.
Oddly enough, dentures are still covered. So apparently Matt Blunt thought paying hundreds of dollars for a set of dentures and letting the teeth rot out of the poor's mouth was better than giving them the ability to get proper care. I decided at that point that Republican Logic is very different than Earth Logic and began voting straight democrat at the polls.

Four hundred thousand dollars.

My family lives on two grand a month from social security - which would rapidly become $0 if the Republicans get their way - and barely has any money left to spend, and this guy is complaining about four hundred thousand dollars.
Being conservative is stupid, anyway. Progression is always healthy in human society, so when a group of people whine about gay marriage and abortion, they're stupid. Stupid faggots.

I couldn't agree more with you. Well, I wouldn't call them faggots, but they seem to act stupid. To pretty much ignore the economy's situation just because they're greedy for money puts a bad taste in my mouth. Hence why I'm more for Democrats.

It is less that the government of the USA is out of touch, and more that they have a very sophisticated media system. ^_^
But you may remember that the United States currently has a president? Furthermore, that there are people in the Republican race barring Rick Santorum.

You know, this isn't the first time the idea that Rick is racist has come up following something he said in public.
Again, he tried to pass it off as not saying "black," but by saying "bleugh." Doesn't really pass in this case.
And in case you aren't aware, there are more white people on welfare than black people, so it's not really excusable to begin with.
