Paul, do you know what the misery index is under Obama?
Do you know what percentage of Americans think they are worse off now (months into Obama's 'recovery') than they were 2 years ago (in the grip of a severe recession....)?
The contradictions are right there in the video. He says he has "$3 to my name before I cash my paycheck tomorrow" and then laments not finding a job. What paycheck?
And he's so poor that he went to college and has a car and a place to live... Hardly poverty on a global scale. They should have just shown him looking for jobs on his iPhone and been done with it...
No, he's just the poster child a Republican campaign needs. While blaming Obama for unemployment is fine, and having someone who is a quasi-victim of unemployment under Obama is fine, Republicans have still have as a core value a total lack of sympathy for anybody without a job. Every jobless person ever has nobody but himself to blame -- absolutely nobody. To think otherwise would create such cognitive dissonance in the Republican mind as to... to... well, to make them a Democrat. Disgust for the unemployed is practically the definition of what it means to be a Republican.
So yes, naturally, a Republican poster boy for unemployment must have a job. And a pretty good one at that. You're not expected to understand. You're not one of them.

Also among King's FB "likes": Oscar Mayer Foods, mayo.
You can scratch infants off the list as well. The GOP doesn't give a flying fuck about fetuses after they're born...
I mean, the message can be wrong, but it's lame to misrepresent the video.
