re: #85 tradewind
I really wish people would learn the meaning of that word.
Working for a corporation and drawing a salary makes you, by definition, not a grifter.
PS. Palin’s not a grifter, either, no matter how horrible a person she may be in one’s mind.
I think that people who manipulate other people’s fears for capital gain are grifters. That is why those two folks you mentioned are grifters.
