The pilot's small plane trailed a banner reading:
"RAISING TAXES IS NOT PATRIOTIC."

The thing that stands out to me is EARN $250,000. It doesn’t include the trust funds and dividends that the truly rich live on. Dividends are not earned income and no Social Security comes out of dividends. Maybe that is why the truly rich like Buffett aren’t screaming their money isn’t considered “earned”.

The same article later says "The sign was the only discordant note as the huge
crowd gave a rapturous welcome to Obama in a park in Jacksonville, northeastern Florida."
Can you tell the leanings of the so-called "journalist"?

Of course, non of the 112 photographers and reporters on scene were able to get a photograph of the aircraft's sign.

Thanks. I searched ABC, NBC, CNN, Reuters, and AP stories.
None of them showed a photo of the plane and sign.

Did a Google News search for “obama protest plane” and clicked on a couple of the stories until I found one.
