I also thought it was demeaning when he said that the only ones in the town hall who would be affected by his tax increase would be him, Bush, and Gibson.
How does he know that there weren't people in the audience that make 200 grand a year.
That line struck me as very odd too.
When he took the time in one question to go back and address the "label" he was called (a Liberal), I thought I saw a mini-implosion. If he can't stand being called a liberal, he can't stand much.
