Here’s a sample of one friend’s FB wall…

I’ve known this guy since high school. Life-long, self-identifying liberal.

Now somebody point out to me how that screed is any different from what you’d find on Free Republic or Breitbart.

It definitely has the “all wealthy people are evil” vibe. But, one of the things I think they fail to notice is that wealthy Democrats are willing to raise taxes on themselves. When Democrats in Congress, and the White House, raise taxes on the wealthy, a lot of them are raising their own taxes; when Republicans lower taxes on the wealthy, they are lowering their own.
