What were the world leaders supposed to be doing, weeping and rending their garments? "Can you believe all these photos of Obama crying during Mandela's funeral? Is this how he believes the leader of the free world should act in public? Suck it up, Mr. President!"

Except that this argument is along the same lines of "If Warren Buffet Wants his taxes to go up so badly, there's nothing stopping him from cutting a bigger check to the IRS."

Sorry but it's not. Warren Buffet is trying to make a point about a government system that is broken, whether or not he actually sends what he thinks he should be sending to the IRS isn't going to make or break what he's advocating for. That's his excuse for not actually doing so, I assume. Conservatives want to tell everyone the nation doesn't need an official social safety net because private charity can handle it. Whether or not it actually happens is the entire point, there's nothing in reality stopping them from doing this right now and proving their point. They have a lot of excuses as to why this doesn't actually happen, none of which explain why churches and corporate charity haven't eradicated poverty out of the goodness of their hearts.

Once again it proves that conservatives have no idea what they're talking about, especially when it comes to taxes. Buffet can't legally pay more than what he owes. I mean he can, but it'll just be given back as a tax refund afterwards. Didn't Romney claim he paid more than he actually did in 2011 because he didn't want his REAL tax rate to become public right before the election?

That's about 80% of why he no longer listens to Savage, so it would be pretty awesome if he can cut Hannity out of his life too. I'm sure Media Matters will have it up at some point. Also he wants to poison owls.

So whoever said that there was going to be news about the photo of Obama taking a selfie with the PM of Denmark and Michelle looking FUKKEN MAD AS HELL was spot on. I saw it on one of the TVs at the karting place tonight. I'm not sure if I should be in awe of the ridiculous poo poo that gets passed off as news in this country.

It would seem bad for business since most people against gay marriage are probably older and already married themselves whereas with same-sex marriage being legalized they have a new customer base. Or it has nothing to do with business and is instead about bigotry, but GOP rebuilding???

Supposed free market supporters being strongly opposed to boycotts is about as American as apple pie, especially when those boycotts are in support of some progressive social issue. Here in Milwaukee there were boycotts of a local pizza chain which was mistreating union organizers and it was hilarious watching my libertarian friends switch between "the company shoud be free to contract with workers" and "people should not be free to boycott the pizza chain because, uh, reasons".
