it is not just her, but also sarah palin and herman cain and all the rest of those right-wingers of the silver spoon variety who condescend upon the great unwashed working classes.
Herman Cain. Silver spoon? Here is an excerpt of his early life from the Wiki article:
Herman Cain was born in Memphis, Tennessee, to Lenora Cain (née Davis), a cleaning woman and domestic worker, and Luther Cain, Jr., who was raised on a farm and worked as a barber and janitor, as well as a chauffeur for Coca-Cola president Robert Woodruff. Cain has said that as he was growing up, his family was "poor" but "happy". Cain related that his mother taught him about her belief that "success was not a function of what you start out with materially, but what you start out with spiritually". His father worked three jobs to own his own home — something he achieved during Cain's childhood — and to see his two sons graduate
He was the son of hard working good folks and made his own way in the world. You can very well disagree with with politics and even economics but to not ever imply he was handed anything.

See if any workingman today can work three jobs to own a home. Especially since the stack is decked against low income home owners today.

Well of course they can't you can thank your beloved Democrats for that.
And the Democrats are responsible for the AIDS virus, and earthquakes.
-Bill, otherwise known as Kraichgauer
I'm not going to blame Democrats for something they aren't responsible for... They are responsible for the welfare system that is designed to keep poor people in poverty.
So the welfare system exists only to keep people poor, not to keep them fed and housed. Like poor people were doing so well prior to welfare.

Herman Cain is where he is today because his family wasn't on welfare.

Good for him. But who says that people on welfare have to be trapped in that life, like insects trapped in amber?

regardless of how he grew up, he has silver spoon values NOW. he has nothing but undisguised contempt for others who are not as successful as he, just like all the rest of the right-wing crowd. i would like the guy a whole lot better if he didn't get too big for his britches [IOW arrogant]. anybody who says to the chronically unemployed [in today's jobless and job-exporting economy] to just "get a job" either is a condescending hypocrite or else just isn't "all there," AFAIC. i say, a pox on all of 'em.

The guy said, "If you're not rich or don't have a job, don't blame Wall Street, blame yourself."
Talk about an ivory tower disconnection with the masses!

Problem with your statement is that Herman Cain actually practiced what he is preaching and that's why he managed to become wealthy, through hard work and perserverence. Your attacks on him are completely baseless and without merit.
