Dem Candidates Demand Bush Share Campaign Funds

Because George Bush's 2004 campaign has raised more money than all nine Democrat presidential candidates combined, the so-called D-9 demanded today that Mr. Bush redistribute his funds among his less fortunate rivals.

"What made this country great is taking money from the wealthy, and giving it to the poor," according to a joint statement by the D-9. "If Bush is really a compassionate conservative, he will divide his re-election funds among us. As one of the founders of our party once wrote: 'From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.'"

Under the Democrat redistribution plan, Al Sharpton and Carol Mosely-Braun will receive the lion's share of Mr. Bush's $34.4 million war chest, since together they have raised less money than most Americans have in their 401(k) plans.

Hey idiots! Why not ask the Clintoons for some of their millions in blood money? Why I am sure they would be more than happy to give to the less fortunate!

This old Italian gentleman was taking his history, geography and politics courses so that he could become a US citizen. One evening, his Geography teacher asked, "Luigi! Where can you find Minneapolis?

Luigi stood and proudly answered, "Uppa US!"

Wubya needs to tell the Dim-9 they can find their money where Minneapolis is situated!

'From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs.'"

This article is not for real.. It can't be. I simply refuse to believe any Presidential candidate is stupid to quote Marx (?) like this.

And the link is broken.

"Secondly, the tax cuts weren’t fair. I mean, the people that need the money and deserve the money are the people who are paying less, not the people who are paying more. I thought this country was founded on a principle of progressive taxation." - General Wesley Clark, possible 2004 Democratic Party Presidential Candidate, during an interview with Tim Russert.

Point #2 of the Communist Manifesto, written by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels in 1848, is: "A heavy progressive or graduated income tax."
