It's remarkable, how the Republican
Party can turn “Words” to fit almost any situation they
have...and make it sound as if they are the “Victims” of all
social ills.
The President, recently announced that
the upper 1% and 2% should pay their fair share in Taxes. Is it, that
much of a crime, for the wealthiest Americans to pay a larger
percentage in Taxes, than a Middle Class or Lower Class individual?
On March 5th,
2011...Michael Moore gave a speech, and said...that there are 400
individuals in the United States today, that have more wealth, in
combined Cash, Stock, and Property...than the assets of 155 Million
Americans COMBINED!!! Those facts have been disputed by the GOP, but
has been “Verified” as True, by Politifact's Truth-O-Meter. 400
individuals, crying that they should not have to pay their fair share
in Taxes...because it would “Hurt Them” financially...as Bill
O'Reilly stated...he may even have to quit his show!!! There is one
Billionaire though, that believes, he should pay more in taxes than
his maid...but, Warren Buffett is not a Republican...instead, he is a
decent and honest human being.
And this, is not new...Dave Johnson, a
Fellow at the Commonweal Institute, said that in 2007, the combined
net worth of the 400 wealthiest Americans, as measured by Forbes
Magazine, was $1.5 trillion; and the combined net worth of the poorer
50 percent of American households was $1.6 trillion.
But, the GOP and Tea Party is singing a
different tune...BLAME EVERYTHING, all the Social Ills of this
Country, all the Economic Ills in America, to the Working Class and
the Poor. The GOP Presidential Candidates are saying it (with the
exception of Jon Huntsman), the GOP Leadership, the Tea
Party...naturally...blame the Poor and the Working Class. FOX News a
citing that if the Poor can afford to buy a TV and a Refrigerator,
why do they complain about not having money?? That is pure Cynicism!
The worst, most blatant acts of Bigotry in US History.
Now, they're accusing Barack Obama and
the Democrats of “Class Warfare” because he wants...and the
Majority of the Nation wants...that the Wealthiest Americans pay
their Fair Share. This, while very openly attacking the Poor and the
Working Class of
Ad
hominem, Labeling, Name Calling, Stereotyping, Appealing to
Prejudice, and other means of Bigotry and Racism. Hypocrisy in
Action!! Who really is promoting “Class Warfare”?
The Definition of Class Warfare is: A
Conflict between Social or Economic Classes (especially between the
Capitalist and Proletariat [Lower and Working] Classes). Throughout
the 19th and 20th Century, Class Warfare has
been associated with Socialism and Communism...Hitler used it on his
People...but you never see or hear the Right, ever say that. Now the
Right, and all Social Conservatives are vehemently denying that they
would ever do that, through one side of their face...while, with the
other side of their face...blaming the Dems of doing it...it's not
surprising that they are 2 Faced, so they can protect “their”
pocketbooks.
How can they increase Taxes on their
Benefactors?...Everything is the fault of the Poor, the Gays, the
Liberals!!...those damn Commie Bastards!!
The Republicans??? why! they are the
Party of God...Family Values, Morality, Goodness, Purity, Patriotism,
God Bless America!!...and if the Dems don't agree with us? “LET
THEM ALL DIE!!”
