This is pretty damned impudent. Did they not hear the Big O's conversation with Joe the Plumber about spreading the wealth? Do they not understand that this actually requires wealth too be seized from those making the wealth and given to those who do not make as much? Pretty damned cheeky to just ignore one of the cornerstones of the Big "O's" whole election campaign!
