That's hilarious .... Democrats are led by millionaires and billionaires who use their influence to make themselves (examples: Pelosi, Feinstein) and their cronies (examples: Buffet, Immelt, Kaiser and other 'bundlers') wealthier but dumbasses like you babble on about the Republicans and class warfare.

Fannie & Freddie pay massive bonuses to Democrat cronies: Obama Silent as Millionaires and Billionaires at Fannie and Freddie Collect Huge Bonuses From the Taxpayer After literally years of demonizing "millionaires and billionaires" ( which, best I can figure, means people who make $200,000 a year), the President has gone curiously silent about a certain segment of the rich: the guys running Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac into the ground. Barack Obama has exhorted supporters to object to large bonus payouts at financial institutions that took TARP bailout money. The House Oversight Committee and its chair, Rep. Darrell Issa, want to know why Obama hasn’t objected to the ridiculous levels of compensation at the two largest bailout recipients — Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac... ...lucrative compensation packages may be appropriate for profitable companies in the private sector, but substantial questions exist whether they are appropriate for entities in taxpayer-funded conservatorship, especially those that are bleeding billions of dollars each quarter. In this context, it is important to remember that taxpayers – not corporate shareholders – are footing the bill for these lavish bonuses. Countdown to Democrat outrage in: three... two... never. directorblue.blogspot.com

Occupy Chicago Security Guard Arrested on Child Porn Charges Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 3:38 PM Robert Reitz was arrested this week on child pornography charges. ( CBS Local) An Occupy Chicago security guard was arrested Monday on child porn charges. But, it’s OK. He wasn’t a member of the Safety and Peacekeeping Committee. CBS Local reported: A man involved with the “Occupy Chicago” movement has been charged with child pornography. Robert Reitz, 21, of the 2000 block of South Canalport Avenue, was arrested Monday in the 100 block of West Quincy Street for an active warrant for aggravated child pornography, police said. He is being held without bond, according to the Cook County Sheriff’s office. At the time of his arrest Reitz said he was involved with security for Occupy Chicago–a claim that was denied by protest organizers. Reitz was arrested after officers smelled burnt cannabis and approached to investigate. Officers did a name check and learned he was wanted for a probation violation by the sheriff’s police. In a statement Wednesday morning, Occupy Chicago said, “We are an open movement, without a vetting system for our participants. Our community is based on trust. It is to be expected that the problems of society at large are sometimes present in our movement. “Robert Reitz was a participant in our movement. He did spend time at our headquarters. He is not a member of our Safety and Peacekeeping Committee.” thegatewaypundit.com
