Politics : PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

I think these guys just don't like Bush, the general and potential disruption he has caused. They would rather business as usual and likely see Kerry as the guy who has the least amount of pressure on him to support any sort of real core ideals. They have him on a string, to be sure. Should Kerry get in, he will take from wealthy folks- but not from folks like Buffet. It is terribly easy to readjust so that a president's puny little incremental policy changes have virtually no effect at all. So it is really quite beyond Kerry to touch Buffet. Kerry will be taking from folks like us, or rather he will be trying.

<<well, I am just trying to understand how people like Welch and Buffet could ever support an ass like Kerry. I figure there has GOT to be something in it for them, cause there sure as hell is nothing in it for US. jdn>>

You must have worn yourself out being a CPA. Bush backs a plan where people like farmers and small business owners would get a pass and the $1 billion plus guys would lose their trusts where they pass their fortunes on tax free.

Maybe they see failed economic policy and want their stocks to go up.
