So I am looking at this conservative writer, and, from the looks of things, his parents doomed him to a life of failure. (This dude ain't dating no super models anytime soon. Just sayin.)Honestly, if this guy had a billion dollars sitting in the bank it wouldn't help his lot in life, because, at the end of the day, he would still be him.
This might explain why he hates poor and downtrodden people so much.
"Conservative blogger and author Erick Erickson said Thursday that some minimum wage workers have simply “failed at life.”
Erickson made the comment while guest hosting for Rush Limbaugh‘s radio program.
“The minimum wage is mostly people who failed at life and high school kids,” Erickson said. “Seriously, look. I don’t mean to be ugly with you people. … If you’re a 30-something-year-old person and you’re making minimum wage you probably failed at life.”
Erickson dismissed the idea that some of those people may have just been down on their luck. “It is not that life dealt you a bad hand,” he said. “Life does not deal you cards. It’s that you failed at life.”' [Source]
You don't mean to be ugly, but you are. Literally.
This guy better not eat out for the rest of his life. (Spit sauce with just about every meal.) Who does he think is serving him, parking his car, and making his food in some of those fancy restaurants that I am sure he likes to frequent?
Personally, I applaud people who have been down on their luck (for whatever reason) and who are willing to take a minimum wage job --or two--- to try and pull themselves up again by putting in an honest day's work. Operative word being work. That is more than I can say for Erickson and his right- wing buddies who are here on earth sucking up the air that us decent people have to breathe.
But this is where we are with the class war currently going on in America. On one side we have people like Erick Erickson and his buddies. And on the other side we have hard working Americans who are just trying to make it and take care of themselves and their families.
The dope boys are listening to folks like Erick Erickson who demonize hard work for little pay. In fact, like Erickson, they make fun of minimum wage workers all the time. "Man I ain't flipping no burgers for a living. I can make in an hour slinging on the corner what it takes me a week to make working at Mickey D's."
You would think conservatives would encourage hard work. Start off at minimum wage and work your way up. If you work hard you will be rewarded. Isn't that the American way?
That's certainly what Jason Riley seems to be saying in a typical house Negro pull yourself up the bootstrap screed he penned, recently. (Yo Jason, your ideological soul-mate doesn't want anyone to pull themselves up; he says that they are all failures.)
"The minimum wage is mostly people who failed at life and high school kids.... Seriously, look. I don’t mean to be ugly with you people.."
Too late.

This pretty much true.
You can have a run of bad luck, and have to work a minimum wage job for a little while, but if you are stuck doing that kind of work permanently, something ain't right.
But doing something is better than nothing. I have much more respect for a 30-something-year-old person doing a minimum wage job than for a 50-something-year-old person who stays in school forever and never works a day in her life.

It may not always be self-inflicted, it could be situational or it could be a personal circumstance, ie lack of personal abilities that one cannot help, and that's ok. As I get older, I try not to judge especially if I've never walked a lifetime in that person's shoes.
I am thankful for who I am, and what I was blessed with that enables me to be intellectually/mentally/emotionally "capable" of "elevating" myself in life (not being condescending). I do not take THAT part of me for granted. I also know that one bad situation could also knock me off balance, for life. And part of my "success" in life, I'm sure was being the "visually right whatever" or being at the right place at the right time. Let us not forget that.
In other words, I may not be a low wage worker, but I know darn well I could never be a Rocket Scientist making close to seven figures a year. That is fine by me. That is not who I am, much less what I aspire to be. We are all individuals. We all don't think or feel the same. But we should all give each other the respect of dignity/humanity regardless of occupation or what we perceive of that individual. You never know a person's story.
Ok, that was the McCheese guy, not an anon (they all seem the same now).
And people, please ignore that vile QLB person. Please. I like a little banter now and then, but he's just too absurd, disrespectful and obnoxious. Makes no sense to engage really.
Trollonymous Burgundy, your comment should be put in the side bar and read every day by QLB and other trolls who are failing at being human.
Thank you Anon. QLB is the classic case of a white angry male who is experiencing "failure to thrive". He is clearly unable to contain his displaced anger.
I've said it before... I also suspect he experienced some sort of altercation/s with black males which left him feeling powerless/emasculated. Despite all the racist things he says, he routinely focuses on the belief that blacks (men) are simply violent creatures who suffer with poor impulse control (black crime stats, "shit show in Chicago" etc). This idea pacifies his wounded masculinity and/or helps him focus on false superiority. Something happened to that fella, he's looking for a release for all of that failure/pain/anger he's harboring inside.
Most of us see through him, and despite what he thinks, he's not being clever nor "brand new".

Be CLEAR that you will ALWAYS and forever be the cowardly troll that thought it was cute to "throw shade" as assnon for YEARS.
"There's crop failure in just about everything, including people and cultures. Life is hard, it's harder if you're stupid."
Speaking of stupid, do you have a college degree QLB?
It is a logical fallacy to assume that you can extrapolate from one's own experiences to the experience's of another; especially based off of appearances, a 15 second encounter, or a single sentence description.
From first impressions alone it is impossible to know why someone is homeless, marginalized, or working a minimum wage job. There is no short cut around deep inquiry, inquisitiveness, and a genuine and sincere interest in other peoples lives.
The fact is, by the societal norms through which we define success, there are only a narrow set of paths be which a person can achieve success, and an ever increasing number of modes of failure. At least in a statistical sense failure is much more common than success.
At the end of the day do onto others as you would have done onto you, and judge not lest you be judged yourself.
What did my man Van Jones say about Republicans? They're assholes. Erikson is just another example.
"Do you believe female kipper fish have dicks?
So yes, male anatomy."
Bill, my boy let me have one last try at explaining this in terms so simple even you might understand.
1. There is no such thing as a 'kipper fish'.
2. A kipper is a smoked herring.
3. To smoke a herring you have to fillet it.
4. Even without the filleting process, like most fish herring's do not have penises.
5. So no male anatomy involved.
Sometimes I wonder if you even think about what you write.
dear mr field, i woke up in a cold sweat very early this am. lately i haven't been able to sleep very well.
this ferguson thing has me traumatized. i am afraid to go out to any place where there are a lot of whites. as a bm i realize that my life is at risk. there are so many unpredictable QLB'S out there. one never knows what a QLB may do.
i have nightmares because of the way QLB thinks. i can't believe there are people like him exist. there must be a mistake of genes gone wild.
i can't believe God made such a creature! anyway, i am depressed more than ever. life for brothers and sisters should not be like this in America. but it is. it actually is in 2014.
mr field, what do you suggest a bm or bw should do, pray?
i wish you would post "solutions" to the racist problem. i mean, we can come up with solutions for ISIS in a short amount of time yet it's been centuries and no solution for racism and police brutality and murders of bm.
now the President is going to act re: immigration. why won't he act re: our black children being killed? why won't he act re: our bw missing?
why must we be insulted by racist evil whites like QLB on fn blog? why do you allow QLB to comment freely without monitoring?
yet you monitored comments of Alicia Banks? is QLB better than Alicia?
why do Blacks like yourself have double standards for Blacks? isn't that a form of racism against ourselfves? isn't that a form of self-hatred? isn't that agreeing with the wm about ourselves?
no wonder Blacks show signs of being depressed and traumatized. look at how our folks reacted in Ferguson! they were traumatized and depressed!
the shooting of Michael Brown as though his life didn't count reminded me of the 60s when we were treated by whites as less than human. it still goes on in these phony post-racial times.
but today we treat ourselves the same way. we shoot each other dead in the streets. that only adds to the dangers and risks of being Black: "if the Whites don't get the bm, the Blacks will."
mr field, is that a life worth living?
i wonder how many Blacks actually sleep through the night without interruption?
mr field, how about you? do you lose sleep like i do?
Still A Panther2, how about you?
Anon, I never lose sleep, and neither should you.
Sleep is important to your health. :)
Trollonymous, your comments were on point.
Aaron Sheldon, I love what u had to say as well.

You people are truly insane. There are an average of 12 million arrests per year in the US, yet the number of what are judged to be justifiable homicides by the police number around 400 per year. Less than half of those are Black. ( that means less than 200 per year ) That's about number of Black on Black homicides in 6 months involving the city of Chicago. Yet you're somehow scared of Whites? Simply amazing. Speaking of Chicago, there were three homicides scored last night with the biggest shooting night of the week coming up.
BTW I've never ever preached violence towards anyone. On the other hand there's been quite a bit of "kill YT" preached here.

People who have "failed at life" (or any other deranged epithet you like) still have to eat. Most European countries, with their safety nets, know this, and know it's lousy economics to make the bottom rung suffer. We have the "free market" who sent millions of jobs overseas where they pay $1.25 a day, and you want to trust our corporatized system with our have-nots?
All trolls here should check the Wikipedia entry on Mr. Erickson. (spell his first name right, otherwise you get bios of useful human beings). He has some nifty tweets quoted there.

Field doesn't tell you Erick Erickson talked supporting the social safety net. ( On the same show).
"But this is where we are with the class war currently going on in America. On one side we have people like Erick Erickson and his buddies. And on the other side we have hard working Americans who are just trying to make it and take care of themselves and their families."
Field fails to mention Erick Erickson also talked about (on the same show) doing more to help people who are struggling.
Erick,like most of us on the right, understand minimum wage jobs are the only jobs most people can find in Obama's Amerikkka.
The 30 min. segment is online for anyone who wants to hear. You will understand what Erick Erickson was talking about.
Don't buy into the dishonest postings of a racial demagogue .

Our president went to grade school in Indonesia, had a Tranny for a nanny, never saw his father except for 10 minutes once in an airport, was dumped by his mother after the age of 11, lived with a gay Pakistani at Occidental College and had a gay roommate at Columbia, and got into Harvard with the assistance of a Saudi prince. Talk about the bent twig.
These kind of things happen when the left values political correctness over justice and protecting its citizenry.
LONDON — A report released on Tuesday on accusations of widespread sexual abuse in the northern England city of Rotherham found that about 1,400 minors — some as young as 11 years old — were beaten, raped and trafficked from 1997 to 2013 as the local authorities ignored a series of red flags.
Some children were doused in gasoline and threatened with being set on fire if they reported their abusers, the report said, and others were forced to watch rapes and threatened with the same fate. In more than a third of the cases, the victims appear to have been known to child protection agencies, but the police and local government officials failed to act.
“Having considered the report, I believe it is only right that I, as leader, take responsibility on behalf of the council for the historic failings that are described so clearly in the report, and it is my intention to do so,” said Roger Stone, the leader of the Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council since 2003.
The vast majority of perpetrators have been identified as South Asian and most victims were young white girls, adding to the complexity of the case. Some officials appeared to believe that social workers pointing to a pattern of sexual exploitation were exaggerating, while others reportedly worried about being accused of racism if they spoke out. The report accused officials of ignoring “a politically inconvenient truth” in turning a blind eye to men of Pakistani heritage grooming vulnerable white girls for sex.

Much worse is happening here in Obama's Amerikkka.
These kind of things wouldn't be happening if the left placed any value on the lives of people they take a oath to protect.
Obama Announces That He Will Avoid Accountability, Delay Immigration Power Grab Until After The Election
Obama recognizes:
(1) His planned immigration power grab will be unpopular.
(2) His planned immigration power grab will be blamed on Democrats.
(3) His planned immigration power grab will foreclose working with Congress on any of his priorities during his final years in office.
Obama's solution: wait until he knows for sure whether there's going to be a GOP-run Congress.
This will also be the coup de grâce for the Democrat's patronage of black America, as they pivot to their new favorite moral shield.
It's the least principled thing he could do, so that's what he's doing.
Percy, that sound u hear is not black helicopters outside your house.
*tipping slowly away*
Back in April, the Islamic Boko Haram organization in the backwoods of Nigeria kidnapped 276 local black Christian schoolgirls and threatened to sell them as wives and/or sex slaves. This became a vast global story with the great and good all over the world weighing in to demonstrate their concern.
So far all this awareness raising hasn’t, actually, helped — some girls subsequently escaped, but 217 are still unaccounted for. But that’s not the point, the point is that Awareness Was Raised, and, more importantly, that numerous celebrities were seen engaging in Raising Awareness so that your awareness of their awareness has been raised.
In contrast, for many years in England, Pakistani pimps have been luring pubescent white Christian girls into sexual slavery; but the English Establishment — police, political, and media — responded with a long Awareness Lowering campaign. In the first decade of the 21st Century, those who protested were ignored, censored, or sent to diversity sensitivity training. The most prominent politician to take up the case a decade ago, Nick Griffin of the BNP, was put on trial twice for inciting racial hatred (but juries did not convict him).

Well, good news. Obama has gone back on his word for the first time during his two term Presidency and has put the immigration thing on hold. This should help lift your depression.
However, it doesn't mean QLB won't continue to be a threat to all bm. He is, after all, one of the 'purest' racists of the worst kind who hates Blacks. No amount of delay of immigration laws will change that.
Sorry. But try to feel better.

"Okay you convinced me, "dick" doesn't have anything to do with the male anatomy."
O.K. Bill.
I'm going to try to explain it YET AGAIN. Though if this doesn't get through this time I might just have to give up.
Kippers (like the vast majority of fish) don't have dicks.
So the English phrase "I couldn't give a kipper's dick" means "I don't care a single thing for anything you have to say."
Do you get it yet??????

"Tell us, does your wife also have a bigger dick than you?"
Firstly no she does not, she's nothing like your mother.
Secondly, you don't want to get into a dick-measuring competition with me Bill-oh because I absolutely promise you will lose.
Thirdly, at least I have a wife. That's not an experience you will ever know. When your Mommie dies, you are going to be ALONE.

@ world of lies:
There might be another reason why one crime was righteously denounced around the globe, while the other was covered up.
Notice that in the Boko Haram case, the victims were black, and hence fit nicely into the West’s “official victim” category.
In the Rotherham case, the victims were white, and hence officially considered oppressors. The criminals were non-white, and therefore considered official victims of the aforementioned white oppressors.
In fact, the Rotherham criminals were also non-Western and non-Christian, making them a veritable bonanza of politically-correct victimhood: not even “Twofers,” but “Threefers!”
Victimizing black people is always wrong. Victimizing white people, well, it depends on who’s doing it. That’s what passes for justice now in the West.
If you can't recognize sarcasm it might say something about YOUR "IQ deficit."
Please, BIB is still insistent that the Shaw was overthrown in 1953 and all of your acolytes defended his statement. Besides how many of your people even know what sarcasm is much less how to spell it.

I noticed how you answered my question about your wife having a bigger dick with the words no she does not.
I was expecting a slightly different answer.
After you felt the need to tell a stranger on a blog in a different country you would beat me in a size contest the answer to why you answered no she does not became clear.
You believe my mom has a bigger dick than you and it pisses you off.
