Real Clear Politics ^ | 9/22/11 | staff

Posted on 09/22/2011 3:10:07 PM PDT by Nachum

"Now the Republicans, you know when I, I talked about this earlier in the week. They said 'well, this is class warfare.' You know what? If asking a billionaire to pay their fair of taxes. To pay the same tax rate as a plumber or a teacher is class warfare, then you know what? I, I, I, I, I'm, I'm a warrior for the middle class. I'm happy to fight for the middle class," President Obama said at the Brent Spence Bridge in Cincinnati, OH.

My daughter just broke up with a young man last night, who was given to saying similar things to woo her.

Her reservoir of respect and good will just emptied out over the last 4 months until it was not too hard to end it.

In 14 months, the country will do the same to Mr. O.

I would have thought the middle class was his target. No one has been hurt more than the middle class under this administration.

If he's for the middle class, I'd hate to see what he would do to it if he were against it!!!

Just think, this insignificant piece of human debris is the president of this once great nation!

Here’s one of his most significant quotes:

“Uh, uh, uh, uh, I, I, I, I,”

Mr. Ignoramous; what part of the income taxes paid by the top 5% of ALL income tax revenue is ALREADY coming to your coffers? What is the tax rate for a millionaire, compared to a $50,000 earner? (35% vs. 25%) How is that "fair"?

Why penalize success, butfor re-distributing wealth TO NON-TAXPAYERS?

What part of math don't you understand?

Mixed marriages never work.

Well, I have to say I agree with Obama here. I'm all for millionaires and billionaires paying the same tax rate as the middle class. I'm also for the poor paying the same tax rate. This "progressive" tax rate, where the bottom wage earners pay no tax and the top wage earners pay the highest rate is completely unfair. A flat tax is a fair tax.

I'll bet that's not what Obama was getting at...

The saddest thing about this is that he actually believes it.

"get the entitled to over 50%. pander to them and the Dems are made in the shade, no matter who they run"

It's easy to attack the "rich", if you aren't one of 'em, and they confiscate their earnings to put in YOUR pocket.

The problem is, when the rich are broke, the moneyflow stops....and the riots begin.

Look at Spain, France, Greece, etc.

I respectfully disagree. I don't think he cares much about anything or anyone.

I'm a warrior for the middle class.

He's a warrior for the super-rich, like Warren Buffett.

He's a warrior against the middle class, the working class and the poor, all who have have been completely screwed by Obamanomics.

First he is jewish,now he is a warrior for the middle class?

You really can’t make this crap up on a daily basis if you tried, nor think he would have the audacity to say what he says or does but he keeps on going every day.Does he laugh at a mirror and say watch this muhahahahahah?.
