Well, yeah, it did happen and before I could jump in and mention the fact that all that class warfare crap comes from the left side of things. All this crap about middle class and the upper class destroying them comes from the left. Haven't you noticed that Obama pushes this class warfare crap more than anybody? It is there but not at ThinkProgress, MediaMatters, or Daily Kos.

I am the American Working Class Citizen and I have nothing in common with Sean Hannity or Rush Limbaugh. At the same time, neither party is looking out for my interests. I hope and pray that one day the scales will be removed from the sheeple's eyes and that everyone will realize that it's not about republican vs. democrat, red vs. blue. It's about us, the working class people vs. an out of control government and ruling class. The red / blue issues are a divisive tool that works so wonderfully for the government to keep us divided.
As for that dirty word / term "class warfare"; we didn't start the war but it's about time we started fighting back rather than being content to barely survive.

I can see some of your story but I fear that you have managed to hear too much of the left leaning crap to actually see what the class warfare thing really is. Is there any chance that any of the working class people are actually part of the middle class?

For voting Republican take stock of who you voted for and are they doing your bidding or the uber-rich's bidding??

"The Republican strategy is to split the vast middle and working class - pitting unionized workers against non-unionized, public-sector workers against non-public, older workers within sight of Medicare and Social Security against younger workers who don't believe these programs will be there for them, and the poor against the working middle class.

By splitting working America along these lines, Republicans want Americans to believe that we can no longer afford to do what we need to do as a nation. They hope to deflect attention from the increasing share of total income and wealth going to the richest 1 percent while the jobs and wages of everyone else languish."


Exposing the Republicans' 3-Part Strategy to Tear the Middle Class Apart -- Let's Stop Them in Wisconsin | Economy | AlterNet
Totally true and being that Wisconson was the place where fair wages and work hours originated, this is truly a fight for the Democratic Party and the working class of the USA. Screw the Republican Party and what it has come to stand for and may they rot for their greed and outright lies and deception.

I know the reality of 99% of Republicans say they are for smaller government, and their voting record is the opposite. Please don't lump me in with the rest of the Republican voters, thanks. As someone who supports Ron and Rand Paul, I know the Republican Party is full of RINOs that have a different public and private face.
