This has been the battle cry of the GOP Dinosaurs for years. The problem with poor people is that they are poor. It's their fault.

Rich individuals who live off of their dividend stock checks defend their weak consciences
with this kind of prattle. Phil Gramm speaks for them and not the American public.

Actually, Gramm and McCain are "whiners" themselves. They whine every time someone
criticizes their economic or political policies and offer a blame-game in lieu of a solution.

These men have played the "victim" role so many times you would think that they
were political prisoners instead of candidates.
