Grover Norquist, why is he buying and controlling America, or TRYING TO. He has failed. The voting is over. Listen to Warren, he knows more than you.

I would apreciate a link to what Warren said on this. I am fully aware that he wants to see the rich pay much more. However, I have never seen or heard him say cap. gain at 30% and 50% for the top rate. A link would be appreciated.

Received a flyer to call my congress person with my Alliant div. E-mail top people not response yet.
They are trying to make me believe all people will pay a higher tax on DIV. funds. They are missleading just like the GOP- 2 Replies to minnflier

I read today where the Obama team is E-mailing donors and other supporters to create as many You-Tube videos as they can in support of the administration position on tax increase and flood the Internet with those videos. Sound like an administration that hasn't developed a good strategy and story to support their case and needs the mindless, which have no responsibility for spending or tax laws to sell their story for them.

don't fall aw shucks stik buffet comes off as, if he wants to pay more taxes why did he put most of his wealth in a trust for gates fondation? so he didn't have to pay taxes on it, talks out of both sides, pathetic.

What Warren knows is that a small tax cut expiration, or coined "tax increase", isn't changing anything for him. He doesn't need it. He does know the money helps the country rebuild and the poor are taken care of. He knows that in the long run this process makes him more money. So he is seemingly altruistic , but actually, as always, a smart businessman that knows the middle class customer is the building block of the American economy. With a little altruism thrown in.
As for walmart picketing, that's American fredom. The real tea party was about the same thing, and created this UNION.Sentiment: Buy

It isn't changing anything for the government either. Obama could nationalize the entire wealth of the American billionaires and it wouldn't last this government more than a week. The problem is the overspending, inadequate, and uninformed spending practices, rules, and philosophies of Congress.
They have no financial logic or education and there is no accountability for their failures and blatant corruption.

You and most of your ilk never understand that the thieves in Congress will raise the rates that effect us all then write in loop holes that only the very rich can take advantage of. Just like they changed the tax rules on REIT's a few years back. The little guy couldn't take advantage of the flow through write offs but mega rich Democrats like the "Hero Of Chappaquiddick" Teddy Boy Kennedy could. I would trust Warren Buffet and his people as much as I woul;d trust Bernie Madaff.

Why is Warren a Democrat favorite? He is a filthy, lying, cheating, didn't build that rich guy. Same goes for all the Hollywood types that give all their money to the Dem's...oh I think I just figured it out, they are rich guys that support the Democrats. I guess money does make a difference.

"He is a filthy, lying, cheating, didn't build that rich guy."
I thought no matter how they got their money, all rich guys were noble job creators. Why is Buffet (or Gates, or Soros) different? Because he doesn't toe the party line? You people are ridiculous in your partisanship.
