3. Class Warfare is their only fear actually.
As there are lots more of us than there are of them. Richard Branson alluded to this last week, it's on their mind now.

4. "Class warfare" is pure projection. It's pure demonization, an attempt to shame.
Which shows how ready they are to stop being bipartisan.

5. Of course, it wasn't Class Warfare when...
...Fox News and other right-wing media outlets were making a fuss over so-caled data contending that most American poor people own microwaves and refrigerators.

I truly believe the GOP's dream for an ideal America is Dickensonian England, where they are the priveleged upper class, and the poor get beaten down for having the audacity of asking for "more," like Oliver Twist.

6. It only becomes a war when there's a second combatant.
Before that, it's just a slaughter.

7. Yup. Up until now, it's been "Class Surrender". The Repugs prefer it that way.

9. Don't need to fight. We only need to point it out. It's just like the way we become racists

when we point out racism in the Tea Party.

11. Well, when we don't, it's class domination and oppression.
It's only when we fight back that there is a possibility of war -- although to date, I'd only call it a class skirmish, at best.
