Sarah Palin is now running the GOP ? I must have missed that one. Like I have yet to receive the Obama Christmas card either...
Oh well.

Well that can certainly be arranged, would you like some Obama waffle mix with that ?

You just like saying that, for obvious reasons.
You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves.

"You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong???" Uh, have you never heard of guerrilla warfare... the war of attrition? Dude, it's a favorite military tactic of the less-powerful.
"You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer." Of course you can! If the "wage payer" (the bank or company owner through which money flows) holds back 10%, 20%, 30% of wages for him or herself, that's more for the wage earner's pocket. Hello?
"You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich." OF COURSE you can! Bill Gates has enough money in his hands to pay 40,000 teachers a 50,000 dollar a year salary for 25 years each. Don't tell me THAT wouldn't make a difference in our economy. Whatever you're smoking/drinking, I want some.
"You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they could and should do for themselves." Then let's kick those banksters and billionaires into the cold, harsh world that everyone else has to live in. Make them enjoy the same rules they propound everyone ELSE should live by.
rappy, my opinion of you has fallen even lower. I am once again reminded why some people are a waste of oxygen. Come into the light of reality, son.

I'm sure there are plenty of people who put animals on their Christmas cards, animals are cute. It hardly seems like something to be upset about, why waste time being upset and criticizing someone's Christmas cards? It makes no sense to me.

Sorry to inform you Sig, but those sentiments are firmly based in solid rock.
It's not talking about any military tactics, but simply the idea that you can make the poor better by over taxing the achievers in life. It'll never happen. Never has, never will. Not in a FREE society.
Your hyper over reaction to such basic, honest and undeniable truths shows just how far from reality you're living.
Your "opinion" of me is irrelevant.
Facts do not change, regardless of how much you may not like them.

Rich are less than/ greater than achievers ?
I guess you mean to say one does not equal the other ? While there are the trust fund babies, those who manage to find their way into money, with zero effort of their own doing, that still doesn't dismiss the fact that most folks who ARE achievers and have become wealthy did so on their own.
Unless you're talking about union or govt employees. Then yes, they have become wealthy largely on the backs of others.
