“Iron Fist”

Filed under: Uncategorized — Jim @ 4:53 pm

I’ll be busy this evening, so I will leave you to consider the words of George Will:

Edwards, synthetic candidate of theatrical bitterness on behalf of America’s crushed, groaning majority, says the rich have an “iron-fisted grip” on democracy and a “stranglehold” on the economy. Strangely, these fists have imposed a tax code that makes the top 1 percent of earners pay 39 percent of all income tax revenues, the top 5 percent pay 60 percent, and the bottom 50 percent pay only 3 percent.

Later, Peeps.

  3. Say. Did you know Edwards — the non-rich one, I mean, the one running for President and who would be taking a huge pay cut if he wins — has his own personal squash court? He does. It’s inside his “personal recreation building, which also has a basketball court, two stages, a bedroom, kitchen, bathrooms, a swimming pool, and a four-story tower.”

    I’m telling you people, There’s a lot more to the guy than just hairstyling skills. Give him another look.

  6. If I happen to catch any of a John Edwards commercial (before I can hit the mute button) I have to ponder. We aren’t supposed to trust eeeeeeevil rich people. He’s rich. Seems interesting he’s putting out all those commercials telling us how evil he is and that we shouldn’t trust him. I must be missing something.
