"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

Sumpin' doesn't seem right about that.  How did he get away with only paying 20%?  I would find it very hard to believe that a significant portion of that would be long term capital gains.  In fact, he's prolly paying an even lower percentage that Buffet.

I found it interesting that The Pharaoh and Nefertiti gave $172,130.00 to charity.  I think Biden gave something like $172.00 by comparison.

I'm guessing he got confused by the comma and the decimal.

I really should correct this statement by noting that Slow Joe had an AGI of $379,035.00, paid $87,900.00 in taxes, and donated $5,540.00 to charity.

The ATTACKWATCH.COM folk were not too happy about my mis-statement.

I just made a sizable contribution to the DNC so that should hold-off the Justice Dept. for a while.
