Obama just concluded Taxing The Rich is Popular!
80% of Americans agree with Warren Buffet. Whoever snuck that memo into him while his present advisors were asleep should be congratulated. :toast: :beer:

2. *sigh* no, he's just concluded that his jobs plan won't pass
so it now makes political sense to run against Congress, and it didn't before.

8. When did he say it wasn't?
He's always said we need to do increase taxes on the ultra wealthy back to pre-Bush rates.

9. If this is true we're in trouble.
Is it possible to be that tone deaf that he just now gets the message?? He can't possibly be that isolated.

10. Obama has always known that...
...saying you are going to Tax-the-Rich is very popular during Campaign Season.


You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their promises.

Solidarity!
