Just another campaign speech, but a very expensive one. The unbearable price being paid is the unity of our nation and society.

Instead of always referring to "those who make over $250,000 per year" in the same sentence with "The One Percent", why doesn't Obama hold up for hatred and demonization the names of

Bill Gates - $59 Billion

Warren Buffet - $39 Billion

George Soros - $22 Billion

Mark Zuckerberg - $17.5 Billion

Steve Jobs - $7 Billion

Oprah Winfrey - $2.7 billion (and imagine that with this net worth, she ranks #139 in the Forbes list of 400 Richest Americans)
The Richest People in America List - Forbes

It is sickening to see our friends, neighbors and relatives who work themselves to the bone to run a small business, hire people, and yes, earn $250k per year that they report for PERSONAL income tax at the highest rate.....to be lumped in with the likes of the list above...

....as though the small business person is taxed at the same "low" rate as Bill Gates and Warren Buffet!

The distortion in the talk is mind-boggling.
