Now, I know.

Now, I know why Congress doesn't want to raise taxes on the rich.  What hypocrites.

Nice try.  My comment was based on the fact that the politicians didn't want to do something, not out of any sense what is right, but to further personal greed.  You didn't have a valid reply, so you conjured up store front preachers...and threw in Baker who isn't a store front preacher, to avoid my question about why those you named were black? 

However, your final sentence is correct and points to an obvious conclusion.  Democracy has failed and it is time to adopt something that will actually work.

The operative phrase was "store front preacher / community organizer"  It did not apply to Baker or Moon.

So, does that mean you acknowledge that when the Republicans oppose more taxes on the rich, that you understand their reason is solely to benefit themselves?

BTW, I love the way you make up reasons that you said something...After I call your attention to the fact you were dodging the issue.

I missed putting in that serving would have NO life time bennies except for security for pres and VP. If you want to serve the people then do so. Also, max of 2 terms then sit out for 2 before being able to run again.

Get rid of the Teddies (it's his seat), and 40 years in office.

It would be a hardship but I think I could live on 175K a year.

“BTW, term limits is the most undemocratic idea possible”

We do it for presidents or are you advocating unlimited term for present one? Same when it’s not him?

They couldt serve again after enforced absence. Just not able to build a fiefdom.

“So, does that mean you acknowledge that when the Republicans oppose more taxes on the rich, that you understand their reason is solely to benefit themselves?”

Members of both sides are guilty and should be removed.

Which party has made more from insider trading? Have posted this before.

Which party voted to exclude themselves for Obamacare? Same one.

Store front / hut / tent / TV, what’s the difference? Answer? Money to spend..

“In 1950 he made his way to the more tolerant South Korea, where he held his first church services in a cardboard hut.”

“Moon, who is estimated to be worth $990 million, has long opposed Communism and supported conservative politics and politicians.”

“In 1982, Rev. Sun Myung Moon went to jail for tax fraud”

“He has spent more than a billion dollars underwriting the Washington Times, which has never come close to making a profit”
