Default OT - The party of the rich is...

The Democrats!

Entire article can read at
http://www.washingtontimes.com/apps/...111230087/1002

Democrats like to define themselves as the party of poor and
middle-income Americans, but a new study says they now represent the
majority of the nation's wealthiest congressional districts.

In a state-by-state, district-by-district comparison of wealth
concentrations based on Internal Revenue Service income data, Michael
Franc, vice president of government relations at the Heritage
Foundation, found that the majority of the nation's wealthiest
congressional jurisdictions were represented by Democrats.

He also found that more than half of the wealthiest households were
concentrated in the 18 states where Democrats hold both Senate seats.

"If you take the wealthiest one-third of the 435 congressional
districts, we found that the Democrats represent about 58 percent of
those jurisdictions," Mr. Franc said.

A key measure of each district's wealth was the number of single-filer
taxpayers earning more than $100,000 a year and married couples filing
jointly who earn more than $200,000 annually, he said.

I wonder if they are the ones buying up all the Grand Banks?

It is also the party of bigots/racists and the intolerant. If one looks at
Super Tuesday D voting results many are in the NE area of the country and
not in the southern States as usually stereotyped.



Did you read Harry's comment about Obama being a credit to his race?

and someone that young blacks can use for a role model?

While Obama got a lot of black votes, he also got more votes from white
males than Hillary, and more votes from females under the age of 65 than
Hillary.

Everybody is a racist to some degree. Obama probably less than most,
given his mixed heritage.
I saw this writer on C-Span this morning, and he had some interesting
insights - based on actual reporting - about the differences between
Hillary and Obama. Here's the article he mentioned.

"A credit to his race"...is a racist statement. Next thing, Harry will
declare some of his best friends are Black. The Clintons want to credit
Obama's wins to the Black vote. Yeah, there's a slew of Black voters in
Idaho, Colorado, Kansas, etc.

Interesting and almost believable article until I got to the paragraph
outlining Bill Clinton's successes as president.
It offers "welfare reform" as one of two "success" examples, but neglects to
point out that the same Welfare Reform Act was submitted to him for
signature by a Republican congress *three* times. Clinton rejected it
twice, but the Republicans forced the issue by sending it back to him. The
third time worked when Clinton, at the advise of his senior advisors,
suggested he should accept it or risk serious public negative reaction.

But, now he takes credit for it.

And next Tuesday, he's going to get two from retired, whites over the age
of 55.

If Hillary is the candidate, it's going to be interesting to see how
the American public accepts another HillBilly presidency.

In particular, as a former President, he gets the same NIE as she
will.

If it is Hillary, Bill is going to be a huge issue in addition to the
"dynastic" properties of the election.

My opinion is that average America has had enough of the Imperial Bush
and Clinton families.



Unfortunately, there are no viable potentials that don't already have their
roots deeply planted in the corrupt, sickening WashDC club with membership
consisting of both parties.
