On Monday, defending his plan to raise taxes on the rich to pay for job creation, President Obama said: “This is not class warfare, it’s math.”
No, Mr. President, this is class warfare — and it’s a war you’d better win. Corporate interests and the rich started it. Right now, they’re winning. Progressives and the middle class must fight back, and the president should be clear whose side he’s on.
The class war began in 1971. That year, soon-to-be Supreme Court justice Lewis F. Powell Jr. wrote a confidential memorandum to a friend at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce about the “Attack of the American Free Enterprise System.” In the mid-20th century — from the New Deal to Social Security to environmental and civil rights laws — the government had cut into corporate profits while creating middle-class prosperity. Falsely believing that capitalism was under attack, Powell wrote: “It must be recognized that businessmen have not been trained or equipped to conduct guerrilla warfare with those who propagandize against the system.” His proposal, from which the modern conservative movement grew, was to equip business elites for that battle with aggressive policies to make Americans believe that what’s good for wealthy chief executives is good for them, too.
Between 1979 and 2007, the income gap between the richest 1 percent of Americans and the poorest 40 percent more than tripled. Today, the richest 10 percent of Americans control two-thirds of the nation’s wealth, while, according to recently released census data, average Americans saw their real incomes decline by 2.3 percent in 2010. Though our economy grew in 2009 and 2010, 88 percent of the increase in real national income went to corporate profits, one study found. Only 1 percent went to wages and salaries for working people.

Right they are "winning" in a tax system that requires them to shoulder more the 50% of the tax burden so Progressive Fascists like Sally Kohn here can buy election after election with our tax dollars.
Demagogue and divide.....get your really TALL boots on for the run-up to November 2012. The radical left would rather rule over a pile of ashes than make America what is has been, and was always meant to be.
a homo = mentally sick and nees help but then she goes on to tell us that the tax system is fair.
Now if she wants to give up her rebate then please let her go ahead but I

another champagne socialist
The problem with this ignorant line of thought (if you can call it that) is that you can NEVER have enough “Fairness” once you go class warfare/socialism.
The Statest mentality MUST have everything we have to be fairly redistributed, they can NEVER have enough.
Socialism sucks no matter how hard you want it or how benevolent your intentions ever are - its a massive lose for everyone.
Marxist, liberal, leftest, democrats should be afaraid of the TEA party and their elected rep’s.
Were coming back strong, and were coming for OUR wallets.
Afraid? Hussein lives to play the class warfare card.
Class warfare is as played out as the race card. Everybody should have to pay some taxes, even if it’s on their welfare check, just to see how it feels.
The extreme Left is clearly energized by 0bama's recent lurch to his Marxist roots. These misanthropic ideologues never admit they are wrong, hence never learn anything, thus always insist on victimizing society with their ignorant wrongheaded ideology which has always failed in the past.

He should be very AFRAID of the Solyndra investigation though. As for “Class Warfare”.....he doesn’t have any “Class” so what’s to worry about?

The term “Class Warfare” is being used to distract people from the real issues that the people are concerned with. It’s like racism, used at every corner if you disagree with the Democrats.
This is hilarious. She is wanting him to do the Walter Mondale thing from 1984 and she is so out of touch and deluded enough to think that will change his fortunes.
