House members demonstrate their concern for the poor

[Scuba]

Last night Rachel Maddow had a clip of Ohio Congressman, Democrat Tim Ryan who represents Youngstown, on the show. Youngstown has a 49% "extreme poverty" rate.

How concerned were the members of the house with these Americans? Well, take a look. Here's Lyon addressing the House...

I wonder how many showed up the last time changing the inheritance tax was discussed? That tax only effects folks with estates in excess of $5 million.

2. Meanwhile...

...Rep. Michelle Bachmann appeared on "The Toady Show" this morning, pushing to tax poor people. My shitbag Rep., Tim Duncan, was out and about comparing undocumented workers to animals. Time to get rid of these wastes of human flesh, and put in more people like Tim Ryan.

4. "the Toady Show"... I know that was intentional.....

But I thought it needed some highlighting.
