Perhaps not, but if there were even a hint of impropriety, obama would have his jack boot thugs all over it..
One thing obama is good at is bullying and intimidation ........

Because the Dems are the ones demonizing the rich and wanting to tax the heck outta them all they time, so let the rich Dems pay more.

Cyber Queen, don't you know those who yell and scream the loudest, the ones that point their fingers, are the biggest hypocrites around.

The Dems scream and ***** about the rich, but don't mind the expensive per plate dinner party's don't mind the rich ultra rich donors. Hate what they stand for, don't take their money, that would prove, something to most, right?
They say whacko Biden, is the biggest cheapie around.

How about if the rich Dems AND the rich republi-thugs BOTH pay their fair share?

Why should the rich get MORE tax breaks and the middle class get stuck picking up the slack?

What is it about conservatives and their idolatry of the rich? Why do you want to see them pay NEXT TO NOTHING but **** and moan about low income families getting earned income and child care credits?

Rich pay 0 taxes = GOOD

Poor pay 0 taxes = BAD

I swear, it's like penis envy of the rich or something.

You're not getting it. The Dems are the ones claiming that the rich "don't pay their fair share" well then let them pay extra. They are free to write an extra check any time they want to.

What I always enjoy is that many rich people pay the attorneys more than they'd be liable for in taxes.
We are smart like that.
