I don't care if you are a Republican, Democrat, conservative or liberal - this man's recent comments about poor people is disgusting. I grew up poor and I'll put my work ethic up against anyone else. Here's the quote this asshole made..“Really poor children in really poor neighborhoods have no habits of working and have nobody around them who works, so they literally have no habit of showing up on Monday,” Gingrich said.“They have no habit of staying all day. They have no habit of ‘I do this and you give me cash’ unless it’s illegal.”
Now here's the hypocrisy of this statement - if all references to being poor were taking out and other identifiers, like rich children, southern children, rural children, put in, the lousy right would be going nuts. It would also be going nuts if Obama or a Democrat made such an ignorant remark. Go ahead you right wing kooks, please, nominate this asshole. I fucking dare you.
