Dear Rosa,

As you can see, the wealthiest people live in DEMOCRATIC zip codes ..............

http://www.forbes.com/sites/morganbrennan/2013/10/16/the-complete-list-americas-most-expensive-zip-codes-in-2013/

And it’s not even close. Liberals want to attack the income of the working class. They don’t want to have their WEALTH taken away. They’re the ones with all the wealth. All anyone has to do is look at the zip codes. They’re a bunch of liars.

The one percenters CEOs and money managers, doctors and lawyers, as might be expected. But they are also computer technicians, scientists and even farmers. Some are singers and movie stars (even though they may not like to admit it) and the rest of them are spread among various professions.

It is instructive in that the greatest number do not appear to be the bankers and traders at the center of the Occupy Wall Street movement’s ire.

So next time you eat, buy a CD or DVD, get a checkup or wonder how the universe works.....Thank the 1 percenters.....The great thing about it is....you can join the “1 percenters” without having the government get involved.

They’re poor in Zimbabwe, right? And Mugabe and the top governing croines are rich, right? And everyone else there is dirt-eating poor. That’s real inequality—focus on that, lady.

Do you have her address.


You could do a little archive digging in the local DC papers.

When the obamas came to town, she and her hubby rented their attached studio appartment to Rahm Emanuel.

Rosa, what changes do you propose, and how would it affect your money?

She just likes to say “existential “.

It makes her feel smarter than René Descartes.

Rosa DeLauro is the ugliest white woman who ever lived. She is a compelling argument for blindness.

If she owns about fifteen-million dollars, then she should give it up to those with less than she has and bingo, problem solved.

She won’t have to tax other people to death to satisfy her neurotic need.

IMHO

Ms. DeLauro, when you give up all you assets and income to be at the median income point, I’ll give you a listen.

Until then, SHUT YOUR FREAKIN PIEHOLE.

Has anyone been threatened by a millionare? I haven’t. Sometimes I go into one of their stores because they have something I want. And I have worked for one of them or another my whole career. Other than that, they pretty much leave me alone, which is more than I can say about the people who want to “do something” about income inequality.

“I was asking myself how she managed to become a millionaire in Congress.But then I remembered that Congressmen and woman are allowed to commit insider trading with information they acquire during their committee hearings and such. Another reason I hate these Liberal S.O.B.’s.”

Both the House and the Senate make their own rules. The House has been controlled by the Republican Party since January 2011. Congresswoman DeLauro is subject to the rules of the House. If the House permits members to trade on insider information, it is the Republicans in Congress who are to blame, not the liberals. The Republicans can change the House rules at any time without the concurrence of the Senate or the President. Their failure to outlaw insider trading by House members must mean they approve of the practice and are beneficiaries.

There is much to dislike about progressives, liberals, Democrats or whatever they call themselves these days. However, we must recognize the both political parties are thoroughly corrupt.

Rosa Delauro looks like the sister to the wicked witch of the west in the original Wizard of Oz.As a matter of fact,if they ever wanted to remake that movie she could take the lead as the Prime candidate for the position.

This woman is so damned bad lookiing she thinks have a scarf around her scrawny neck is going to make her look better.
