My observation is that Libs only talk that way about other liberals who are making big bucks. When it is the normal folk earning their money through actual hard work, what they are earning is classified as “obscene”.

Obscene was the favored descriptive term used repeatedly.
Really? Soft bribery is the American way?

“I will take number two for 1000 dollars Alec”

Chrisruddy is the same low life sonofabitch as was davidbrock when they either sold out or were blackmailed by the left.
