The Obama campaign has found its Joe the Plumber.
President Barack Obama’s State of the Union address Tuesday night is expected to emphasize economic inequality, appropriately timed coming off the Occupy Wall Street fall leading up to Tuesday’s release of frequent Republican front-runner Mitt Romney’s tax returns which reveal that the multi-millionaire pays an effective tax rate of 13.9 percent. To hammer home the political game that the Obama campaign has been playing, billionaire Warren Buffett‘s longtime secretary will be joining first lady Michelle Obama in her seating section during tonight’s speech.
The guest choice is significant because Buffett’s secretary, Debbie Bosanek, has become the embodiment of the Obama campaign’s central theme in 2012; appeal to middle-class populism disgusted by the excess of the “one percent” in the midst of economic distress.
The central discussion in politics over the summer revolved around the president’s failure to bring both sides together effectively during the debt-limit crisis and subsequent credit downgrade by Standard & Poors, all on top of continued high levels of unemployment and economic uncertainty well into the Democratic President’s first term. Then on August 14 came Buffett’s now infamous New York Times op-ed “Stop Coddling the Super-Rich.”
“My friends and I have been coddled long enough by a billionaire-friendly Congress. It’s time for our government to get serious about shared sacrifice,”

Apples vs oranges, just the kind of comparison only a liberal could support.
her’s is the one that’s not 2 axe handles wide.
Isn’t that special.
I think I have to wash my hair on Tuesday.
But what if nobody watches? Nobody was going to in the IM’s received by my morning news.
She better bring air freshener. Mooch’s diet makes her gassy.
So why doesn’t Obama just run on his record? Oh, right...
Geeez. What a load. And then they wonder why nobody watches these State of the Union Shows. It’s all an act. “Boosh*ttin’” the unwashed masses.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Using the State of the Union speech to campaign. If we had a “second” party they’d boycott the speech.
She should release her return as should Buffet so we can compare them.

Why not . At least we don’t have to fly him to the Capitol.
We have been flying him all over the United States for the last 3 years while he campaigned
Another useful idiot for the MARXIST party.
So, if the rich were taxed the same tax rate at the middle class workers, how much more tax revenue would it bring in?
Warren Buffet should know that it would be a mere drop in the bucket. If the rich were taxed at the same rates they were taxed a half century ago, they’d be paying some $350 billion more this year in federal taxes.
Today, the rich earn much of their incomes on capital gains and dividends, which are taxed at around 15%. In the late 1980s, such incomes were taxed at 35%. The question is, should we go back to the higher tax rates just so we can extract more money to pay off the debt, or is there a consequence for that action that would offset the increased tax revenue?
You know, the one that stands to make $$$M's from the Keystone rejection!!

Well Debbie, get ready to get tossed like a used condom once you've fulfilled your purpose (cf. Cindy Sheehan).
