"wit" is not a word. You live in Detroit and can't even spell it right. You must be a moocher.

I want to thank Americans for Prosperity for helping to plan our event for today, all the private citizens who helped, but most importantly, I want to thank all of you for coming out here today.
I am here today not as someone who is trying to embark on a political career, nor am I someone who is affiliated with any kind of political organization, but instead as someone who is deeply concerned about what has been taking place in Washington. I am not a rich person, but I do live a rich life and I can attribute that to being fortunate enough to live in the greatest country in the world.
It is obvious that no matter what our political beliefs are, we can all agree that we do not like the way Washington is spending our tax dollars. At a time when we are all cutting back, spending less, and trying to save more, Washington is spending ridiculous amounts of money. Money Washington does not have.
Here are some examples of the wasteful spending that can be found in the supposed Stimulus Plan:
5 million dollars to food distribution programs on Indian Reservations,
100 million dollars to Crime Victim Assistance
125 million dollars for Rural Drug Crime Preventions
These dollar amounts are a mere fraction of the total of the 787 billion dollar Stimulus Plan.
Now, these all may be “nice ideas”, but how are these and all the other wasteful spending projects going to stimulate the economy?
That is an easy answer. They will not.
Or
What about the mortgage bailout? Our president thinks it is a good idea to give 275 billion dollars to people, who had no businesses getting a house in the first place. Our President is rewarding bad behavior. President Obama, if you reward bad behavior, you are only going to get more of it.
Jokingly,
Many of us have probably said to ourselves; “Where is our bailout? We have done everything the right way and we are having to pay for the mistakes of others. The good thing is, we do not want a bailout. We all subscribe to the idea of personal responsibility and we all live within our means. If something goes awry in our lives, we do not look to the government for help. Instead, we look to ourselves. This is a message that we need to start spreading because the more people we can get on board, the better for our country.
Speaking of rewarding bad behavior, we too can share a little part of the blame. We can no longer reward our elected officials, who are not putting our interest first, with the gift of office. We have to stay vigilant in our watch over our elected officials and make sure that they are doing what is best for our country and not themselves. If we do not, we will continue to get the same kind of poor representation we are getting today.
Samuel Adams once said, “It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people’s minds.
Today we may be a minority, but we are going to continue having these types of rallies until we get enough people as angry and as concerned as all of us here today, and until we can find people that we can elect, who will represent us properly
I want to stress to everyone that today’s rally is not a one and done type of an event, but the start of a movement here in North Carolina.
Thank you again for coming here today and I encourage everyone of you to visit one of our sign up tables and leave your information, so we can send you updates about future rallies.
