I am miserable! I have all the money I will need for the rest of my life.

I have all the political power I ever sought and work day and night to keep it.

I have all the objects of material wealth money can buy including homes, autos, planes yachts and more.

Yet, I am a miserable human because I can't control the freedom and intimate lives of others around me who seem to enjoy sex, family, hard work, kindness, helping others, and diversity. I despise those who strive to make the fairytale "American Dream" a reality for all.

I am a Republican. I need a break. Please send me home in November to get that break.

Thanks!
Your GOP Senator and Representative.

for sure you were being serious - and was going to point you to a few GoFundMe pages to help redistribute your wealth.

You should send it to the Democratic Committee - they could use your help!

...by pointing out that they are socioeconomically oppressed and blaming the other side, i get poor, uneducated white folks from the south and middle america to vote against their own economic interests, keeping me in power to continue to oppress them socioeconomically.

Also I'd add they are miserable because they do not, nor are allowed to have any original thoughts of their own. All of their thinking is dictated to them by megachurch pastors, AM radio, and Fox News.

Genius. Describes rich guys like the Kochs as well as politicians. Nothing is ever enough for them.
