Poll question: should I laugh or cry when Republicans whine about "class warfare?"
I mean the Republican party is ALL about (class) warfare.

Income redistribution from the middle class, and even from the poor, to the rich.

That's the real the purpose of War, isn't it?

To steal the people's freedom, and money.

1. Let's see...
Tax breaks for the wealthy, more loopholes for big corporations, new bankruptcy laws that make it harder for poor people and easier for corporations, no-bid contracts, eliminating the inheritance tax...

I know I'm missing quite a few, but I'm only on my second cup of coffee.

3. Typical republican tactic: blame your opponent for what you yourself are doing
What they call "class warfare" I call "trying to restore some balance"

5. Class Warfare is what happens when...
the lower classes *shoot back*!

Republicans hate class warfare; they much prefer class slaughter, class genocide, and class ethnic cleansing.
