The republicans have betrayed this country.

There has always been an unspoken and unbroken (until now that is) agreement within the nation.

The poor fight the wars, the rich pay for them.

That pact has been broken, and no one on fox news seems to care.

We had a 90% tax rate on the rich during and after World War 2.
Taxes were increased for Korea.
A surcharge was put into place during the Vietnam era.

They refuse to end the wars; on the contrary they wanted more boots on the ground for Libya- who knows what the hell is going to come of Iran.

All the while, the republicans wish to maintain the lowest tax rates on millionaires in the history of the nation- while the sacrifice is endured solely on the backs of the poor.

For all their talk of patriotism, support for the troops, a strong defense that can’t be cut and a strong nation that needs to tighten its belt, the hypocrites refuse REFUSE to do what they are morally obligated to do, if you won’t end the wars you need to tax the rich so that they can pay for them.

The rich in this nation are richer than they have ever been, they also happen to pay the less in taxes than they ever have.

Tell me republicans; explain how we can have guns and butter.
