Mine was better, the House should put up a ‘I want to pay my fair share’ bill for a vote that makes it even easier to give their money to the feds and publishing the donors online publicly. And maybe call these millionaires to a house committee to find out how they are avoiding ‘paying their fair share’ while they are crying that they want to.
On one side congressional Republicans got freepers like Gilbo to say ‘Just pay more if you want’ while they themselves hide. On the other side Dems are forcing Senate Republicans to take a vote that looks like they are protecting those same millionaires who are ridiculing them.

I have heard complaints by the libs on MSNBC that the MSM is not taking this Buffett rule gimmick seriously, actually exposing it as a election year trick.

*IF* these guys werent playin kabuki with the commies, these simple and obvious arguments would be forthcoming en masse, rather than just allowing the talking points to continue to dumb down the electorate...
the simple math of what every man, woman and child in the country has to pay operate the [lack of] budget should be hammered daily, and the people should quickly realize that 100% confiscation of all private wealth wouldnt float the boat into the near future...
we're tossing ourselves, and kids, into the mouth of a hungry beast, and expecting it to be satisfied, and in fact, voluntarily go on a diet ???
most people just ASSume theyll be eaten last...especially those pesky 'millionaires' that have lawyers that are very well paid to hide money, no matter what the rate for everyone else...
even if they cant hide it, the worthless dollars are simply sucked out of the consumer/employee pocket anyways...
Im not a Dr of econ...dont even play one on tv, but the simpe math is really too easy to scream it from the House floor, daily...unless, as you said, the surrender/complicity with evil is a given...
