When I read in Drudge that Buffett was against lowering taxes, I was horrified. Now I know why - and he is a hypocrite. The Republican party needs to publicize this and destroy this self-serving SOB. Considering the class warfare tendencies of the press, they would jump all over an opportunity to rip on Buffett.

the media also report his statements totally out of context because, it's important to know, IMO, Buffett himself has always refused to pay his shareholders a dividend. Send this article to Charles Grassley - here are a couple ideal corporate tax loopholes he can close on the likes of the liberal Buffetts so that average Americans can prosper instead of his selfish interests.

Many of the VERY rich are Dems. They oppose tax cuts because lower taxes would allow more people to become rich - and the rich don't want any new members in their club. Taxes are the schemes by which the self-chosen elite protect their own turfdom.

Buffett LIKES being "the only Buffett on the scoreboard."
