[Moochy]

33 times more wealthy than Obama.

discuss.

[yourguide]

1. hahahahaha.

[anonymous171]

2. In b4 classwarfare.

[Moochy]

10. She's the People's Plutocrat!

[krawhitham]

3. With Bill's help

[Moochy]

9. Speaking fees

That would be about 1000 speaking engagements at 100,000 a pop. I think there is more to it than just Bill's charming speechifying.

[quantass]

4. ..and 37 times more wealthy than the Working-Class

[flor de jasmim]

5. and couldn't be bothered to pay her vendors. SHAME ON HER

She doesn't see the disconnect - take a look at the front page of www.nytimes.com. Next to an article of the 109 million is the word of her wanting to create a poverty czar. SHE CHOSE to release those records today. SHE CHOSE to announce her czar today.

[Cant trust em]

11. Zing! There's your talking point, ladies and gentlemen.

Some people are talking about how she can't be the true representative of the poor if she's rich. I don't buy that one, but paying her vendors is something that can be done.

[Cant trust em]

6. Let's see how much Obama is worth in 2024.

That would put him 8 years removed from him exiting office in 2016. I bet he'll be worth quite a chunk of change.

[thereismore]

8. I sure hope so. nt

[Moochy]

12. All the more reason to reject an Obama Presidency in 2016!!

Down with Dynasties.

[Cant trust em]

18. How is it a dynasty if he's the only one who's run for office?

I'm a little confused by your post.

[Moochy]

19. In the future

when his wife runs.

[Cant trust em]

21. ah. I'll go check the flux capacitor. NT

[sniffa]

28. But, but, but..

How much of his wealth will be generated from Kazakhstan? :shrug:

[Cant trust em]

32. How much pubis will he have to sell to be worth what Clinton is?

Sorry. Anytime Kazakhstan comes up I have to make a Borat joke.

[sniffa]

33. Obama is NOT black

I hear ya.

[Cant trust em]

34. and he'll be a better president than Supreme Warlord Premier George Walter Bush

- Very nice

[sniffa]

35. Throw the Republicans down the well

So my country can be free

[thereismore]

7. That makes her 33 times more worthy.

:hurts:

[not_too_L8]

13. with 33 times more experience!

[Buzz Clik]

47. ... and 33 times less qualified to call Obama supporters "elitist"

[book_worm]

14. Frankly, who cares? That is the least issue I have with Hillary

after all the Kennedy's were wealthy and LBJ and FDR too.

[Moochy]

15. I care

[bigwillq]

16. Good for her.

And good for Obama for the money he's made.

Another overblown topic that will get 109,000,000 threads posted about it in GDP. :eyes:

[Moochy]

17. Hooray Rich People!

HRC supporter deems income gap between candidates insignifigant.

news at 11

[Forkboy]

20. Do you feel that Kennedy doesn't care about the poor?

[Moochy]

23. Moonshine Joe

Or Ted?

[Forkboy]

31. Let's start with Ted.

Then we can move onto Kerry, Edwards, etc.

[Moochy]

37. ROFL

I just noticed your new signature line... priceless

[BuyingThyme]

22. Did she realease her tax returns?

(I just got up.)

[Moochy]

24. Yes

Friday Document Dump

[BuyingThyme]

25. Thank you.

[bigtree]

26. Class warfare? New/old cheap campaign tactic?

how inspiring.

[Moochy]

27. bigtree

standing up for the little gal!

how come dlc people always defend the rich from the poor?

[Texas Hill Country]

29. She also gave 25 times more of a percentage of her income to charity... Clinton 10% Obama 0.4%

[nichomachus]

40. If that's your criterion

Then, we should just see who gave the most to charity and make them president.

That would probably be Bill Gates.

This who gave how much to charity issue is the stupidest crap that's come along -- if you don't county Hillary dodging sniper bullets and comparing herself to Rocky Balboa and Paul Revere.

[roguevalley]

44. she has 109,000% more money and some of it in Kazakhstani

pesos or whatever. Conscience must be bothering her.

[Erin Elizabeth]

30. She's also 33 times more woman than he is!

[DemVet]

36. Then I want HER handling the economy, not him.

[jgraz]

42. She can't even pay her own debts. You trust her to handle the country's?

[Moochy]

38. kick for the night shift

[cbayer]

39. So a reason to vote for someone is because they have less money?

Sorry, there is nothing to discuss here.

[Auntie Bush]

41. The Obama's are a failure?

lol

[Moochy]

43. Nothing to see here..

Apologists for the plutocracy just move along... nothing to discuss.

"Class Warfare!!!"

As they man the barricades on the side of the rich.

[constantino]

45. I think wealth does not mean a person won't help the poor

I had a problem with journalists mocking Edwards for owning a big mansion and getting expensive haircuts, and implying that he wouldn't help the poor for this reason. That is bad logic. Kennedy was very wealthy and he was a very liberal, fair president who cared for the downtrodden.

[Moochy]

46. I agree

I am not implying that by virtue of their accumulated wealth that the Clintons are anything other than 33x as rich as Obama. That's just a comparison of their worth, a statistic we could only calculate today.

I am not inclined to trust the rich.

Most of the HRC supporters who chimed in on this thread seem eager to defend the rich from my mean and nasty observation. :)

But mostly it was a play on HillaryIs44.org :)
