Obama's campaign takes shape on the class warfare theme

Neal Boortz: "A little fairer"  "But then he says that we should “ask some of the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share.”  This implies that the wealthy currently AREN’T paying their fair share.  Too bad for Obama, this is entirely not the case …

Upper-income taxpayers have paid a growing share of the federal tax burden over the last 25 years.A 2008 study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, for example, found that the highest-earning 10% of the U.S. population paid the largest share among 24 countries examined, even after adjusting for their relatively higher incomes. “Taxation is most progressively distributed in the United States,” the OECD study concluded. Meanwhile, the percentage of U.S. households paying no federal income tax has been climbing, and reached 51% for 2009, according to a new analysis by the Joint Committee on Taxation.

And, no, this is not an April Fools' joke."  Investors.com

Obama Calls for More Redistribution of Wealth, Declaring: ‘I Am My Brother’s Keeper’    Listen to pure, unadulterated demagogy: 

"In Genesis, Adam and Eve’s first-born son is Cain and their second-born son is Abel. Cain becomes a farmer and Abel becomes a shepherd. When Cain offers the fruit of his farming to God and Abel offers a lamb, God is pleased with Abel’s offering but not Cain’s. Cain then kills Abel.

DNC, MSM SMEAR MITT WITH DECEPTIVE EDIT 
"We knew the likes of the Washington Post and CNN would stop at nothing to keep their guy in the White House.  We're just surprised they're willing to shed their thin veneer of journalistic integrity this early in the campaign. Team Obama must really be panicking."
