Mika Brzezinski: Rich White Men Need to Contribute More to Budget Solution
Newsbusters ^ | 4/11/11 | Matt Hadro

Posted on 04/11/2011 10:12:30 AM PDT by Nachum

Emphasizing that all but one of the top 30 income earners in the United States are white males, Mika Brzezinski clamored that it is time for the wealthy to pay their fair share and help solve the budget crisis on Monday's "Morning Joe."Co-host Joe Scarborough and liberal New York Times columnist Charles Blow were in the midst of a debate about cutting entitlement spending when Mika chimed in. After Scarborough argued that making cuts to middle-class entitlements is necessary for the country's fiscal health, Brzezinski quipped that the rich should be contributing more to solve the budget deficit.

The last thing that we need is more parasitism in this country. Thou shall not covet and then steal thy neighbors’ stuff.

Yes? How about rich white chicks, Mika?

If your answer to that questions is “yes,” you’ve got hair for brains.

Liberals are always so generous with the money of others.

I think I read the other day that this country has crossed the 50% threshold of people paying no taxes to those who do pay taxes.

It is a tipping point. And this POS wants to tip it even further. Man-o-man, is he ever going to be suprised and alarmed when his oh-so-fat 401k or pension plan suddenly becomes worthless because the uncontrolled spending of money we don’t have reduces a dollar’s value to a millionth of what it once was.

When that dumb ass gets his statement saying he has enough life savings to buy a slice of bread, he will be more surprised than anyone.

They always think that everyone will be affected except for them.

Ms. Brzenski is the daughter of the Peanut Planter’s Foreign policy advisor. What do we expect?

Sure Mika, we can put a few “minorities” and a few women in the debate and it will be all solved, right?

What a twit - just like her idiot father and the moron who hired him.

I really wich FOX would dump the O’Reilly re-runs to counter that moron Joe Scarborough with a news program in the early morning. Scarborough comes across as a decent, well-spoken, respectful guy - but deep down inside he is as much of a pro-Obama Bolshevik as Ms. Brezinski.

RE :”Brzezinski quipped that the rich should be contributing more to solve the budget deficit.

She says that everyday, this is news?

Ever notice how when others talk she makes those funny chipmunk noises like she understands what they are talking about? And that giggle too? Then she asks :”Can I read the news now?

She reminds me of those dim bulbs on ‘The View’.

How many of the top 29 white male earners are married to women who share their husbands’ wealth?

Only read the headline - does her plan mean Oprah Winfrey and Michael Jordan are exempt?

I saw an article recently which showed that if you changed the top tax rate (which is charged to incomes over 373,650) from the current 35% to 100% the extra tax collected would only be about $400 billion if taxpayers made no changes in their life (like quitting working), leaving the deficit at $1.2 trillion. Spending is the problem - period!

White people should pay it all. We should give 100% of our incomes so that illegal Hispanics and affirmative action government black employees can have more money.

Why beat around the bush this is what a-holes like this believe.
