This is the truth, with no embellishments.  It’s the literal truth.

It reminds me of the Walmart workers who support the company that’s oppressing them.  It’s hard to believe they exist, but they’re really out there.  I recall talking with one of them, a woman who lives in a fifth wheel, and though she has medical insurance from Walmart, doesn’t have good enough coverage to see a doctor for a serious condition.  Yet this woman claims that Walmart is a wonderful employer and only people who are lazy don’t appreciate working there.

As long as the slaves support the slavemasters, there will be no change for them.

You know, clinton made this appeal at the Dem. Natl. Conv. didn’t he?  It’s still good and funny.  I like it when he talks to the bullet point.
