He let the cat out of the bag and showed his own true color and it sure as hell wasn't about the true color of love.

Not sure what you read in that comment.

Like the poor rich people have to pay taxes. Can't the welfare class help out a little?

I actually heard Bill O'Reilly suggest that second part.
Couldn't understand why food stamps aren't taxed as income. He said "at least it would look like they're trying".

than 5% of the population from the last I heard, give or take...Warren Buffet even said, when it was revealed that his own secretary is paying more %-wise in taxes, than he is (WB).

Idiots like pence and such claim to speak for a majority of Americans, but I say 'what Americans?' Where is the vast masses of millionaires (give or take) that he seems to be talking to? All he is doing is invoking the socialist siren call when there really isn't anyone in the room.

They believe rich people are rich because Gawd loves them more. He rewards you by making you rich. Poor people are poor because they are somehow unworthy, and Gawd hates them. Therefore, they deserve to suffer. They don't deserve to be "comfortable." Which is why he thinks what the Dems want to do is a bad thing.

"Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."

So, he's fucked.

Always wanting to be "comfortable," and "not constantly worried about the future," and "alive" and so on. Want, want, want! It never ends with them! America lost its way when it let Poors get such ideas in their heads!

Yes, it's sarcasm.

What would Jesus do, Mike? The Democrats are following Jesus pretty closely in these efforts, Mike!
