Rich liberals want to tax you happily... but when it comes to their OWN money, its off limits to a government grab. Warren Buffett may be all for the death tax as long as it grabs another fellow's estate. But he won't give 55% of his fortune to the government.

Or to his own kids.

But he is giving away the bulk of his fortune to the world's richest man, who in turn will shelter as much of that fortune from the government as possible, probably at the expense of his own children as well.

I can't find any family values or intellectual honesty in Buffett's charade.

The liberals always want a double standard.

One tough one for us little people...

and a pass for themselves.

Another example : The swimmer and Kerry are for renewable, wind energy as long as it is not near them.
