    I think the voters in the US need to take a lesson from Europe. Redistributing weslth is not the answer to our financial woes. I find it truly amazing how the left can try to demonize the wealthy like yet, isn't that very goal the "American Dream"?

    Hell no, it's their money and most of them worked very hard for it. The others inherited it, but that doesn't make the money any less theirs.

    Americans should be paying attention to what is happening in France and other European countries. Their 99% (though not as large a disparity as in the US) has had enough – just as Americans should have had enough of corporate greed, politicians who continue to push legislation that favors only the rich while the majority of the country’s standard of living and wages continue to decline.

    When Eisenhower (Republican) was president the top tax bracket was 90% - yes – 90%. Now, what many people tend to forget (or never know or understand) is that the top tax bracket is ONLY on that part of the income that is above the previous tax bracket – NOT their entire “income”.

    The 1% have been catered to and coddled long enough. They are NOT creating jobs – they are only creating huge portfolios for themselves.

    Listen closely. Austerity measures DO NOT WORK in a recession/depression. Trickle Down Economics DOES NOT WORK - EVER. That’s why we are where we are – and if the Tea Party ideology prevails, America will cease to exist.

    Eisenhower would have been called a socialist or a communist these days if he lived in the midst of these modern-day conservatards.

    Yes - and Reagan too! Reagan actually raised taxes 11 times AND questioned the fairness of the wealthy very often paying less than a bus driver - just like that Socialist Obama has said! LOL!

    Really? Reagan quoted almost word for word what Obama has said regarding the fairness and equalization of American taxes. So, how does that make Obama a "Socialist" but not Reagan? Do tell.

    Facts by any other name (propaganda) are still facts! Are you talking about the same Reagan that willfully against the law sold weapons to the Iranian terrorists? That Reagan?

    The Obama Commander in Chief whose polices allowed..... the death of bin Laden, the death of the terrorist responsible for the bombing of the Cole, the deaths and capture of more terrorist leaders in his first 3 years in office than in all the 10 years in Iraq, the deaths of Somalian pirates that kidnapped American ships, the toppling of 2 terrorist-controlled dictator regimes, and.... shall I go on? THAT Muslim/terrorist-loving Obama? PLEEEEEZ.

    obama is a muslim terrorist lover who hates America/Israel and Western Civilization

    Americans do not need advice from the french whose new leader was elected by Muslim terrorist
    we do not need advice from france whose leaders surrendered to Hitler and aided the Holocaust of the Jews
    the Tea Party ideology is to follow the Constitution and keep Government under the control of Americans as it was intended

    Oh really? So you are under the popular Right Wing misconception that all "wealth" is created in the private sector? Let's see now - let's just look a few "wealth creators" that have their wealth due to GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS. Who would be buying many of these companies' products if NOT the GOVERNMENT? What would their bottom line be WITHOUT GOVERNMENT contracts? And the Right Wingers who work for all of these companies would claim how they work for the "private sector" while bashing government employees, wouldn't they? LOL. Maybe you need to rethink your statement!

    "We went into the office of the manager of the institute where we study and submitted a protest…we told her that if she does not take action against the teacher, we will go to the head of the university,” Saudi student Ahmed bin Daheem Al Hajour said, quoted by the Saudi Ajel newspaper.

    Cleric - Education.... article - in the Himalyas - not Obama!
