"They insist on playing the role of protector of the rich. Its crazy but that's GOP reality these days." They don't even DENY it anymore. I know.....that's what I find most amazing. They have become very upfront with their attitudes which puts them in a very negative light. Their useful idiots don't seem to mind, but there's not enough rich people and useful idiots for them to win elections, except in the most regressive states. After years of brainwashing, their useful idiots don't have a clue. But, they DO still say things like "we're just against raising taxes" - even when everyone KNOWS that Obama is only proposing raising taxes on the wealthy. Only the useful idiots drink the kool aide. The irony.........they will probably let the fiscal cliff happen and then turn around and give back the middle class their tax cuts.

Bentway, Their useful idiots don't seem to mind, but there's not enough rich people and useful idiots for them to win elections, except in the most regressive states. There aren't enough rich people and useful idiots in those "regressive states" you must be talking about. But there are enough in the "progressive states." Both rich people and useful idiots. And they can count on guys like you to vote for them and make sure the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor. How is that, you might ask? It's because taxes are the best way to crush class mobility.
