" even those that give millions and millions to charity (like Romney does)"

What Romney gives to "charity" is the REQUIRED 10% tithe he supposedly gives to the Mormon Church. Which builds shopping malls with it!

huffingtonpost.com

But. it's a MORMON mall, so, don't look for a beer, a coffee shop, or a Victoria's Secret! No bookstore with Playboy, either! I find most mall's drearily homogenized with ridiculous high prices, but this one is especially boring!

It is, but we need to suck it up and fight on.

“There's class warfare, all right,” Mr. Buffett said, “but it's my class, the rich class, that's making war, and we're winning.”

<<<<<Republicans are the ones that are demonized - even those that give millions and millions to charity (like Romney does)>>>>>

No Paul, you don't get what I'm saying. Obviously if you follow the logic here - it has nothing to do about money. Republicans have been criticizing democrats for unfairly attacking Romney BECAUSE he has money. That's just pure bull. They may be criticizing because of hypocrisy but it's not about his wealth.

Speaking of hypocrisy; Ryan telling everyone he did not apply for stimulus money. WHOOPS! Except letters signed by Ryan begs for money for a couple of green energy companies. Ryan claims the money will save 7,600 jobs. DOUBLE WHOOPS! That about as hypocritical as it gets. ..........Latest is he's trying to backpedal on the claim but he would be better to just say "whoops" and move on. People can accept that - but the dishonest crap is pure bullshit.
