sounds like a long shot..... maybe a million to one.
Bwahahahahah

But to them, the message is still there.

Sadly, when you offer most people free anything...

1. they will take it
2. they will like it
3. they will want more of it
4. they will VOTE for more of it

You are not sending clicks to MSNBC, but a blogger reporting on it.

short version: little commie girl no one ever heard of says Bumberg spent enough to give every person in the U.S. $1,000,000 . and stupid news anchor does not catch that she added 6 zeros to what each person would have gotten.

Chalk another one up to Common Core math.

According to one Washington Post contributor and a whole bunch of folks over at MSNBC, failed presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg could have used the $500 million he spent on his presidential campaign and used it to give every soul in America $1 million.

And if you're scratching your head trying to figure out how the math adds up on that one, don't worry - that's because it doesn't. But apparently, no one over at MSNBC thought to run the claim through a calculator before throwing it up on the big screen.

“Someone tweeted recently that with the money he spent, he could have given every American $1 million,” New York Times Editorial Board Member Mara Gay told MSNBC’s Brian Williams on "The Eleventh Hour" Thursday night.

Fair use.

The clip he uses is under 90 seconds, but more than sufficient to convey their level of stupidity.

I suspect you would like the gentleman who posted the video:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCsiAKRKcgzA_372WbXNBaw/videos

Steve Turley (PhD, Durham University) is an internationally recognized scholar, speaker, and classical guitarist. He is the author of over 20 books, including Classical vs. Modern Education: A Vision from C.S. Lewis, Awakening Wonder: A Classical Guide to Truth, Goodness, and Beauty, and The Ritualized Revelation of the Messianic Age: Washings and Meals in Galatians and 1 Corinthians.

Steve's popular YouTube channel showcases weekly his expertise in the rise of nationalism, populism, and traditionalism throughout the world, and his podcasts and writings on civilization, society, culture, education, and the arts are widely accessed at TurleyTalks.com.

He is a faculty member at Tall Oaks Classical School in Bear, DE, where he teaches Theology and Rhetoric, and Professor of Fine Arts at Eastern University. Steve lectures at universities, conferences, and churches throughout the U.S. and abroad.

His research and writings have appeared in such journals as Christianity and Literature, Calvin Theological Journal, First Things, Touchstone, and The Chesterton Review. He and his wife, Akiko, have four children and live in Newark, DE, where they together enjoy fishing, gardening, and watching Duck Dynasty marathons.

Gawd..... they lost me in 3rd grade with 4 digit long division math.
Then my brain somehow clicked for math cause I hated it so much.
Then I managed thru high school algebra and geometry with decent grades. B,s and low A,s at times.
Doing it all someway in my own mind, I cant possibly explain to anyone else.
Sure as fugg wasnt the book taught out way I had ta listen to in class.


These people are fugging morons..........

And they vote and are looked up too somehow by all the other moron Liberal Socialist Democrats.

A.Sniper,
Thanks for posting the Bio. By posted.. you mean to YouTube vs campfire right?
Interesting profile. is his wife from Japan? Akiko is an uncommon name in the U.S.. did he spend time there? I imagine that would make for an interesting perspective.
I tend toward the written word vs. The spoken word. Perhaps a reason for my dislike of MSNBC and how they feed/train their audience to recite w/o thinking.
