I agree that it is class warfare. Unfettered capitalism with no rules is the engine or ideology.

Those of us who aren’t and voice our frustration are usually told our thinking is [...]

There are a lot of people that were part of the Democratic Party’s former coalition out protesting and involved with the Occupy Wall Street movement such as Unions and laid off teachers and public sector employees as well as recently graduated educated young people.

During Elizabeth Edwards’s funeral, I was there to counter Westboro who showed up to desecrate her funeral. I will never understand that level of hate.

I agree with that. But I don’t like unilateral discussions by the executive branch with the Republicans without participation from the other party in Congress.
