Between Buffett, Soros and Steyer, the dems and their causes pull in some major billionaire buck$... yet the libs and their "media" are fond of calling the GOP the "Party of the 1%."
I wish Obama had listened to his boy, Buffett, and raised his taxes, a lot. “The rich” using their money to murder babies makes me sick.
boycott all businesses the murderous Buffet owns
Wow..being wealthy sometimes has no connection to being moral.
In the article, I see 300 million to Planned Parenthood - what other abortion organizations get the other 900 million? UN agencies?

“boycott all businesses the murderous Buffet owns”

Only the last will be hard for me; I was just advised Rhode Island Novelty Company is an alternative. The real estate company has listings everywhere in this area.

Maybe that’s how Buffet feeds his lizard?
Bill Gates as well is a huge supporter of abortion. So, between pushing abortion and pushing Common Core on us, he is using his money for evil purposes.
“boycott all businesses the murderous Buffet owns”
