Oh, no...

By “the rich”, she doesn’t mean the actual WEALTHY,
she means you amd me... the people who have some savings and property earned from hard work,

and this is the same “the rich” that they will gin up absolute HATRED for when the crash comes, deflecting blame from themselves.

Republicans made a very bad deal with this super committee and trigger cuts. The idea that defense should take half of the reductions is ridiculous. Defense is the core function of government. I also think that failure to agree involves the expiration of the Bush tax rates although I may be mistaken on this point. Democrats have more bargaining power in the super committee so I expect that Republicans will cave or deal with large reductions in the defense budget.

I thought the Supercommittee was charged to find cuts in exchange for raising the debt ceiling. Whatever happened to that deal? Where did tax hikes come from?

Let’s see the congressional Democrats demonstrate real leadership. Let every demo senator and congressperson who is worth more than $1 million give up one half to the federal treasury, everyone who is worth more than $10 million give up three quarters to the treasury, and everyone who is worth more than $50 million give up 90%. As this is being calculated make sure all spousal assets are included, all overseas assets, and all currently tax-sheltered assets. Eliminate all loopholes to them as they calculate their wealth except those approved by the first hundred people listed in the Topeka, Kansas telephone book. After they have done that, we will pass legislation to tax the rich at a higher degree. And then remind them that they, under Obama’s scheme will still be counted as among the rich.

Let’s see some real patriotic, caring leadership. Nancy, Harry, you first, show us your sincerity.

Pelosi, liquidate all your and your beard husband wealth. Send check to DOD. Set an example, you hypocrite. Go live in your children’s cellar and collect a Social Security crazy check.

Pelosi on Thursday rejected that plan outright.

Pelosi does not have enough votes to accept or reject anything.
