Redistribute THIS, Barry...

As John Adams famously said, facts are stubborn things.

Seven years ago, Barry (back when you could call him that) talked on local Chicago radio about the Civil Rights Movement and the Supreme Court's failure to adequately implement "redistributive change."

Earth to Joe Biden - no, he wasn't kidding then, and he isn't now.

As a petty little aside...

If you listen carefully, Barry's diction was a lot tighter back then in 2001 than it suddenly became after 2004. He said words like "socie-tee" rather than "socie-teh." Not to go all Henry Higgins on you, but it has annoyed me to no end that in order to broaden his appeal to the non-elitist, non-millionaire Democratic electorate, he's adopted a quasi-urban, pseudo hip-hop patois so he sounds "cooler" or something.

This carpetbagging poseur is so cheap and eager to pander that he'd have truly disadvantaged urban voters believe that he's one of them by adopting a fake accent. What they don't realize is that they're being talked down to by this HI boarding school alum, white family raised, Ivy-League educated snob who cares only about their votes, and gives not a fig about their lives.

Drives me FRIGGIN' NUTS!

Am watching the John Adams HBO series now. One episode left.

Heard yesterday that the Obama camp is now saying that they really need to tax at the $150K level, not the $250K they had previously claimed. Translation, they plan to tax the heck out of everyone. It is beyond nails on a chalk board to hear my MIL complain about taxes and the social programs that hand money out after taking it from the middle class, but then she'll march off and vote for the guy that plans to do that very thing. ARRGGGHHH!

And why people don't see that his recently acquired speech is so insulting! Instead of distrusting the poser, they think he's just like them.
