1. I'll take "class warfare" for $100 Alex ... You bet it is, and the Middle Class has been ravaged...
I want to hear a Democrat say exactly that.... It is time to go to war against those who raided the public treasury and have attempted to completely destroy the Middle Class.

9. Warren Buffett said esentially the same thing

3. K&R to highlight the true class warfare perpetrated by the Rich
to bankrupt the poor and middle class.

Now they need Democrats in again to build up some budget surpluses so Jebbie will have some more dough to steal when he and Palin are on the 2016 ticket.

4. Have any of the surrogates put the class warfare out there yet?
Edited on Thu Oct-16-08 02:50 PM by nc4bo
and I don't mean in flowery words but in words similar to Klein's "We have had 30 years of class warfare, in which the wealthy strip-mined the middle class". POW!

7. This was one place I thought Obama dropped the ball last night
When McCain accused him of "wealth re-distribution", I wish Obama had mentioned the horrible re-distribution that has occurred over the past 8 years, and explained that his tax cuts are only a tiny effort to return things to the way they HAD been before that.

I've heard him say that in a roundabout way (ex: he tried to explain it to "Joe the Plumber", but it requires a little some brainpower to make those kind of connections, and we're talking about brainpower that former Bush voters may not have...
