When they yell "it's class warfare" we should respond "it's shared sacrifice"
I was listening to Thom Hartman and a very intelligent man called him and said this. Hartman said he thought it was brilliant and I do too.

How in the hell they get the idea that the sacrifice is shared is beyond me.

13. Maybe we should make their 'share' retroactive to when Bush gave them the tax cuts
Where do these people get off thinking that the rich owe them a damn dime?
The rich already pay a majority of the taxes and meanwhile, 47% of the population pays zero in taxes and gets a huge check every tax season, courtesy of those evil rich people they want to hang.

22. About to write an OP on the same topic: "Just once, I'd like to celebrate In(ter)dependence Day"...
Stay tuned ....

Right there sums up liberalism in a nutshell.
They hate independence and want everyone to be dependent on the good graces of our govt in order to survive.
I'm thinking these people were never taught as a child that if Billy has a toy, that toy belongs to Billy. I'm guessing the parents went and took Billy's toy away, broke it and sent him home crying.
This is what we are up against folks, people who think that every dime out there belongs to the govt and should be divided up equally amongst everyone. There is not one thing about liberalism that is empowering, it is all about tearing every down to the lowest common denominator.
