Ken Langone, the billionaire sort-of-founder-but-really-just-founding-investor* of Home Depot, offered a "sorry if you were offended" apology Tuesday after suggesting that attempts to call attention to the income gap were exactly like what Hitler said about Jews.
Or starting the ball rolling by taking away library cards from the Jewish folks. And telling them they can no longer have dogs and cats as pets. ------- That, my friends, was Wonkette Comment #7,000! Free Beer Tomorrow! -------
Yep, the first thing that comes to my mind whenever anyone mentions raising the minimum wage is 6 million people being exterminated in gas chambers. Or when anyone mentions Obamacare. Or extending unemployment benefits. Or food stamps.
But just mention bombing Iran, and all I can think of is freedom.

&ldquo;My remarks were intended to discourage pitting one group against another group in a society, except for unions, poor people, takers, illegal aliens, Muslims, gays, Liberals, Democrats, all of this goes without saying, except for every night on Fox News and on every single wingnut blog and Yahoo news story comment thread...&quot;
He sounds like a fucking asshole who&#039;d happily suck Satan&#039;s cock for a 0.5% reduction in marginal tax rates.* _________________________________ * If my choice of words was inappropriate &mdash; and they well may have been that &mdash; I extend my profound apologies to anyone and everyone who I may have offended.
Please tell me how raising the minimum wage even a little has anything to do with Hitler. Class warfare I understand, because having money for food AND rent causes envy
My mom had rooster that made that same flapping motion when he was distressed. Poor thing had a neurological disorder, but he did make a tasty pot pie.

If you crop out his hands in that gif, suddenly he appears to be a really big proponent of DIY.
The law, in its majestic equality, allows the rich as well as the poor to complain about being compared to Hitler.
Every politician ever ?
But they feel so unloved. It makes all those other things seem meaningless. Won&#039;t someone think of their important fee-fees.
Well, you know, Hitler also liked dogs.....
Just sayin&#039;.

For the reception budget - 1/3 beverages, 2/3rds food.
The Canadians for giving us Sen. Raphael Cruz?
I don&#039;t recall Hitler talking about raising the minimum wage for Jewish workers.
