Democrats Who Support Welfare for the Rich (i.e. Bush Tax Cuts)

[RainDog]

Here is a list. I cannot fully express my disgust...the force of message control is strong among the Darth Democrats. Anyway, the names and their actions speak for themselves.

There is strong agreement between Democrats and Republicans on continuing the tax cuts for individuals earning less than $200,000 per year and families earning less than $250,000 – those making more are set to have their taxes return to Bill Clinton-era levels unless Republicans and dissenting Democrats get their way.

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that extending the cuts on the top marginal tax rate would only affect 2 to 3 percent of small businesses and would have a minor overall impact in spurring economic growth, while dramatically increasing the deficit.

1. Could it be that these Dems do the "split the difference" bit??

First they do not identify themselves as Democrats.
2ond, they go after the top of the economic scale which
means they go after a mix of Republicans and Democrats.
Their constituents are Republicans as well as the more
affluent Democrats. They are PRO PRO Business .

This has worked in the past. They go to DC stay out of
the limelight, vote with Republicans as often or more often
than Democrats.

Now the Party is in charge and they are shown for what they
are. DINOs.

They are over a barrel . Their Republican Constituents do
not compromise nor will they accept compromise from them.

This is DLC Model which raises hackles among some Progressives.

Some?

3. Less than 2% of these particular House members' constituents will be affected by the $250K+ tax cuts

They are con-artists and this is a great list to keep and purge, when the time is right.
