[ I haven't had a chance to read all the recent replies, I'll do so when time permits, but I had to post this recent thought based on recent republican intransigence. ]
It seems I need to modify this thread as republicans not only hate the poor - shown by their policies - but also hate the working classes of America - again shown by their policies. It could just be they hate America and are hoping for a monarchy or some similar form of government in which they and the wealthy not only rule but take possession of the resources that belong to all.
Sigh...ok this is what I am getting at. You make the above statement (again in an inflammatory manner) and support it with this quote:
When asked not one of the millionaires objected to the 'millionaires surtax' and none said it would affect their hiring practices.
Which you linked to the following:
But did you bother to actually READ the article and notice that NPR (nice unbiased source there ) points out that they got their information by posting a question on Facebook and accepting whatever Facebook posters told them. And this is what you consider a reliable source of documentation? Are you fucking kidding me?
Then you follow by trying to blame the GOP for failure to pass the tax cut extension, but you completely ignore that the bill was passed in the House over the opposition of 179 Democrats. IOW it's the Democrats blocking it jack-ass, not the Republicans.
