You could tell he is not used to people giving him crap.
I realize mainstream to far right conservatives consider moderate conservatives as RINOs and could care less as I will let my representatives know how I feel on a given subject as well as I vote for the person that will best meet my beliefs.
Why would I want to waste my time reading what Freepers believe or stand on a given subject?
Who gives a fuck if a few don't have that view, you low iq idiot one too many chromosome having bitch, McCain has been constantly shit on by conservatives for being 'too liberal' because your movement is full of dipshits like yourself.
Now please show where I posted saying he was too liberal. Most moderate conservatives do not see McCain as a RINO.
Those poor, poor downtrodden, oppressed rich people.
If only we could get all 85 of them together for some sort of "benefit concert".
I would not advocate killing the wealthy. I do, however, think it's time to get them out of power. And make no mistake, they ARE in power. Super PACs, lobbyists, payoffs, backroom deals etc. are what make me despise them. Not the fact that they have money, but the fact that it is so abused.
The politicians are in the pockets of the super wealthy. In that sense, they ARE the royalty of today and while I wouldnt suggest we behead them, I dont have a problem with taking some of their wealth. More importantly, however, is to eliminate the power they have over the rest of us. The more powerful they get, the more they're able to create an environment that make sit more and more difficult for a poor or an average person to BECOME successful.
It's certainly NOTHING like the Jews of Germany.
LOL +1All this nazi name calling is tearing us apart. Can't we just all get along and be nazi's together?
LOL +1
I propose Werepossum's First Internet Law: Any comparison to Nazis which does not include actually murdering millions of people immediately gets laughed out of play.
Corollary #1: Endangering the flow of free birth control is not equal to murdering millions of people.
Corollary #2: Reducing our freedom or after-tax money is not equal to murdering millions of people.
+1Don't tell me what I can say!!!
God, it's like nazi Germany in here.

In a moment of contemplation have you ever wondered just how much you could have accomplished if you'd directed all this energy from jealousy to actually trying to make something of yourself?
If they just paid the same percent of taxes as the average American, the problem would go away.
I'll overthrow the rich and take all their s**t, then I'll be rich! Oh wait...
Who exactly is they, define 'average American' and what problem?If they just paid the same percent of taxes as the average American, the problem would go away.
yeah thats gonna be a problem
take the money from people who have it, give it to people who dont
then the people who didnt have the money have the money
and what are you supposed to do with them now?

The top taxpayers would kill to pay the same percent as the bottom 47%- basically zilch.
Perhaps a tax avoidance bounty should be created, like how software makers offer bounties for security bugs found? Even then, the bounty would have to be high enough to encourage accountants who are aware of the flaws in the system to profit more from reporting than from clients who want to avoid taxes.
Perhaps a law should come into place that if someone is judged to have been purposefully exploiting a tax loophole that they and their clients are liable for that behaviour.
I've seen enough summaries on this topic to suggest that there isn't much agreement on how much they are paying as a percentage of their income.
However, one serious problem getting in the way of an accurate summary is how much taxes are being avoided through legal loopholes? Surely as one goes up the income scale, the greater the number of methods at ones' disposal to avoid tax go up as well.
It seems to me that a developed country ought to research and fix loopholes in taxes as well as reward its tax collecting organisation for finding large amounts of tax avoidance and evasion going on. I think the problem with that idea is that tax avoidance is in most peoples' selfish interests, including those who make the rules.

In case you weren't aware, you're not going to get a real debate on P&N.
And just whose fault is that?
Certain idiots who just want to attack the other side and spread their BS.
