What's their problem? THEY see what's happening as much as WE do, yet not ONE is stepping up to counter the RW billionaires?

You have George Soros, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and I would guess there are more I just draw a blank at the moment.

Then you have all the hollyweird crowd that donates millions.

Don't forget you have unions who take the pay of the working man and give that to help elect the liberal 1 percenters.

Yep the poor dems no one ever gives them anything.  :whatever:
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

2. We have to take the money away from the Republicans

If they enact laws that disolve unions, we need to enact laws that remove corporate money from elections entirely.

Wall Street has given 0bama plenty of dough, just saying.

Socialist Steve Dawes went in the hole on mini-tacos for seven people, while within spitting distance of Warren Buffett's house.

Dem billionaires are all talk and no action.

I thought that billionaires were SOBs, the scum of the earth, wanting to hold the poor down.  Now DUmmies like billionaires? :confused:

The liberal rich donate to the person who can offer them the most benefits or returns on their money. This doesn't cover the street urchins who sleep uninvited in City Hall.

The rich democrats couldn't care less about the leeches, dead beats and welfare queens in society.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

It kills me the primitives don't seem to realize that the wealthy within their party could care less about the daily lives of the rank and file.  They believe that those who are their reps really care about them.  They need that parent figure.

OTOH, I know the wealthy R's don't care about me, and I'm fine with it, I can take care of myself.  And the best thing my reps can do is leave me alone.

Democrat billionaires aren't going to throw their billions away.

There is a certain point over the 0bama years when it became obvious that liberal billionaires couldn't spend enough money to make us believe socialist lies and they tapered off. They are only going to give enough to keep from being jailed on the off chance 0bama wins steals a second term.

When Warren Buffet gives 1 million dollars to 100 million people to do whatever they want with it then and only then will you see how much a rich liberal cares about those less fortunate.

All those millionaires in Hollywood?  Gotta be able to scrape up a few billion there, no?

The liberal 1%ers don't consider themselves to be in the 1%. They would rather donate all their money to the Liberal party, than paying their fare share.

All these people that are saying that we should pay more are more than welcome to send a check for more to the government. You would never see them doing that though.

Liberal billionaires care for the DUmmies....as long as they vote early and often.

....for the right people of course.

29. I don't think that they have felt very welcome

There were some Wall Street and hedge fund types, media barons, technology billionaires, etc.

But they are part of the 1%.

I'm not even sure whether the Pritzkers of Hyatt and real estate fortune in Chicago feel that they are still loved. 

Demonize rich people, and they will say **** you.  Why?  Because they can.   Don't you idiots ever think about unintended consequences?

17. Tell me about it....Dean, Kerry-Edwards, Voter Verification, Lib Web Sites, Local Dem Candidates

and every Cause that would support the Ideals I believe in.

BUT...it's just a drop in the bucket to support the Postage and Phone Calls asking for More Money.

Plus time in Marches against Iraq Invasion and support for "Occupy Wall Street," and local actions I've been involved in just "Trying to Make a Difference."

NONE OF IT HAS MADE ANY DIFFERENCE!

I see you (by your Avatar) still think that Obama "Is ...THE ONE."

Good Luck to 'ya!
 

Oh my.

Then they get into a bizarre conversation about certain people (Gates, Buffett, Zuckerberg et.al.), and the DUmmies insinuate that because these guys aren't full-blown Communists, and have corporate interests, that that money would be filthy and unacceptable.   :mental:
