Rangle seems to see the draft as a wedge issue to get unthinking people of his race on the farm. The flip side is that when one leaves the farm they must be castigated and marginalized. Just look at his treatment of Janice Rogers Brown. She voted with the majority of the liberal California Supreme Court most of the time, yet he and his allies used every tool they had to marginalize the sharecropper's daughter. He is a convenient truth kind of guy. He will never quote a fact that does not advance his partisan cause. The fact that more Caucasians are wounded and killed in Iraq doesn't fit his agenda. "BUT we should all look at who pays the Federal Income Taxes...over 50% of ALL Federal Income Tax is paid by the top 10% of wage earners. The bottom 50% of the income levels pay NOTHING as far as the Federal Tax is concerned. The bottom 50% qualify for many Federal Handouts.... in addition to paying no Federal Taxes...." It is dangerously close to 50%. The scary thing is that a few taxpayers must have voted for Democrats in 2006. Why would any cognitive person vote for people who want to stagnate the economy and tax them more?
