Appearing as a guest during the 5:00 p.m. hour of CNN Newsroom with Poppy Harlow on Sunday, liberal CNN political commentator Marc Lamont Hill declared that "the greatest lie in American history is the myth of the self-made person" as he answered a question about why GOP presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson is so popular with white Republicans.

I built that. Get over it.

[Responsibility2nd]

Liberals. Still swallowing that “You didn’t build that” load.

[Stand W]

Wait, don’t they claim that Fredo Dogeater Toonces was self made? And I’ve never seen a bigger post turtle than him.

[bitterohiogunclinger]

Marc Lamont Hill, proof positive that liberalism is a mental illness.

[Billthedrill]

Gosh, Marky, you're right - Michaelangelo's Mom nursed him and slapped him on the butt so you really can't say he did the Sistine all by himself.

Liberals. Drop 'em in a maze with all right turns and they'd starve to death.

He should be fired

[Da Coyote]

Journalists are really ticked that they have been exposed as the fools they are.

[Norm Lenhart]

He should be caged.

[pgyanke]

Greatest Lie in American History: Obama wants America to Succeed.

[Verginius Rufus]

Is Dr. Carson not popular with black Republicans?

On one level he is correct. No American has ever been a self-made person. Every one has had a mother and a father (in most cases, married to each other).

But there are plenty of examples of Americans who started with nothing or very little and made great successes of their lives--Benjamin Franklin, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Andrew Carnegie and a host of others.

Well, if somebody made everybody, then I think this moron has grounds for a lawsuit.

Some people are more ambitious than others. Get over it.
Or even better, start rubbing either two hands or two braincells together yourself and make something.

[NorthMountain]

Tar and feather him first.

[Red Badger]

So, a man who builds a business from the ground up and the guy who sits on his ass all day getting free cheese are equal?.................

Existential Cage Theory - An idea whose time has come

Get a cage
Put the liberal in the cage
Weld the door shut
Walk away

Think of it as a zoo. We keep dangerous things in cages. People go to see dangerous things and remember that they are safe because dangerous things are in cages.

Then, if we feel frisky, we can turn the tables on the dangerous liberals and fling feces at them.

[Paladin2]

Of course we all stand on the shoulders of those who went before.

[Still Thinking]

Waste of a perfectly good cage that could be used on a more deserving creature, like a rabid dog. Mulch em.
