    Why is Kristol advocating class warfare?

    Is this a post-election meltdown?

    Small businesses weren't dead in the 1990s and they won't be dead now. If you think losing $0.03 on every dollar of income above $250,000 in net profits will destroy a business, you have no experience whatsoever running a business.

    It's too bad that it took whipping their ass to get the GOP's attention.

    Oh wait, it wasn't bad at all. It was fun.

    If the rich get taxed too much how are they going to be able to donate over $300 million for Karl Rove to blow in the next election?

    The neo-cons are idiots. I can't believe anyone ever gave them the time of day. Kristol will say whatever it takes for his friends to stay in power as long as his stupid agenda of Pax Americana continues in the middle east.

    Very few of them have this experience. This is why they fall for the spin. If they are in small business, the vast majority net less than $250 k ( now net means after all expenses for many of the young libertarian and conservative types). The conseervative pols and their think tank spin creators know this and I have to admit it is very effective.

    Hey it is just free speech you know-- just like the $25 donated by an average person. We call it libertarian/conservtive democracy at its finest. All are equal.:)
