That's not the only lie in the article because according to that recent Gallup survey, Republicans opposed the 'Buffett Rule' 54% to 43%! Those are the voters that voted them in, so it would have been much more risky to vote against them, which is not what the article implied.

Which in turn, brings up the even bigger point, that the Bluff-It Rule -- which even Bobo has admitted is a "gimmick" -- was actually merely an attempt to demoralize the Tea Party. It was advanced in the hopes of attracting enough RINOs to go along and pass it. That the Bluff-It Rule appeals to overpaid Beltway Leftists is beside the point. The only useful thing to come out of this is how much a simpering sycophantic douchebag Warren Buffett really is.
