I give Boehner two points for that one. So many richies donated to, and voted for, Obama, and now they whine. Idiots.
Dems: stuck on stooooopid!
Plus, he has taken away a much hoped for Democrat talking Point.
Nice! Rich liberals are like Europe, happy to allow American conservatives to protect them while whining about Big Business and Green hoaxes aimed at America. It’s time they paid for their opinions like us proles.
Did you notice how the democrats attack Boehner for calling Obama’s bluff.
If the republicans vote what Obama wants - all the rich democratic campaign contributors will go nuts. They fund the Democrats and pretend they are the good guys while they hope the bad guys (the republicans) will protect their wealth.
Bingo. They want wealth, and a clear liberal concience. They are hypocrites, vipers, and not very nice.
Now you could talk about the theoretical tax that Obama's crowd floated not long ago to tax net worth every year to the tune of about 2%. That would leave a mark.
BUT BOEHNER SMOKES CIGARETTES!!!!!!!!!!!
Boehner is right....the limosene liberals fund their own destruction.
just like the rich landowners in Cuba who supported Castro in the late 50’s then were SHOCKED, SHOCKED to find that they lost everything.
brain dead.
Obvious that the rich support both parties, so they can claim leverage, lobbyist need to be ousted and not allowed in the halls of Congress or bribing the legislators for their votes.
There is much out of whack in Washington and it has been happening bit by bit for years. Now it is big enough to KILL America and all it has stood for under the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION.
We still have the Constitution, let us pick it up off the floor where all are walking on it and put them out of office, in jail, or impeached.
If the Republicans let Obama tax-hike the rich - this will be the end of the Democratic party - there will be very few loons who will continue to fund them.
The Republicans take the power in 2012 and do real tax-reform - fair tax, or flat tax, or something real, not patch works here and there.
Would that mean if your net worth is negative, they send you a check?
Yep!
Lemons. Lemonade.
I watch a lot of business shows. A year ago the MSM, lib talking heads, all the Obamabots and Rat pundits were falling all over themselves to disparage the Tea Party movement as, not only racist, etc., but INEFFECTIVE and POWERLESS.
As this year has proven that wrong, and as this year also has made it demonstrably clear that we have an economic madman (actually, a driven purely ideological ANTICOLONIALIST) in the White House, I cannot flip on any show where there is not some huge CEO, economist, analyst, pundit referencing the general hope that, in so many words, those Tea Party people really will come out to the polls in November and vote to STOP THE MADMAN.
The entire country, including, ironically, the ELITES, -- maybe even the entire global economy -- is waiting with bated breath to see if the unwashed masses -- the Wal-Mart people -- are going to rise up and save the whole darn country!
This happens over and over again in history.
When you vote to turn "wants" that cost money into "rights" -- thereby imposing the "duty" to pay for the fulfillment of everyone's "rights" (such as to healthcare) on the only people who have the money to pay -- the people with money have to be stripped off their wealth sooner rather than later.
Then, as Margaret Thatcher said, when you "eventually run out of other people's money," that's when the real brutality begins. It is then the only way to put down the inevitable civil unrest and force redistribution of what little resources the society still has.
It also, as Stalin pointed out and many other brutal dictators have practiced, becomes a way to reduce the number of mouths the State must feed and police. Mass murder, artificial food shortages, these are inexorable if a society goes down the road of true Socialism.
This is a Red Herring!
The real “Rich” are not even subject to taxation under the tax code, and they are the ones funding the Dems.
The people that benefit from the Bush tax cuts are not the rich, but the upper middle class, who are responsible for at least 80% of the jobs in this country.
The MSM demonize the upper middle, and falsely call them “the wealthiest Americans,” which is nothing but marxist class warfare.
Boehner is a prostitute.
A prostitute is one who does not have the moral scruples for anything but making money.
If he had an ounce of morality, he would not cave in.
I’ve decided that Boehner has made the right move here. Let the Dems screw the rich if they insist on it . . . and deal with the backlash.
> “I give Boehner two points for that one. So many richies donated to, and voted for, Obama, and now they whine”
.
Stop giving Boehner credit for anything; he is a deceiver.
The “Rich” are not whinning; they are coaxing congress to heap taxes on us, because those taxes will not even affect them; their wealth is beyond the reach of the taxes that will be raised.
