Update on Obama's Class War

Readers may have paid a little more than passing attention to this "debate" I've been having with Dr. Hussein Biobrain. I put the scare quotes up there since there's really no debating this guy. You can make the most rigorous argument, something with which no one in her right mind would disagree, and Dr. Hussein will come back with some unhinged rant only a hopeless denialist would offer.

That's the case once again with the latest post on this exchange, "
Again with the Class Warfare." There's no need to even cite any passages, because this is the kind of guy who will invent a new reality upon every entry, since he lacks the dignity or integrity to simply admit that someone's offered a more powerful chain of logic. Folks who read Dr. Hussein will shake their heads, especially since the blather that's proposed is offered as "serious" Democratic Party talking points.

Here I'll just link to David Brooks' essay this morning, "A Moderate Manifesto," and his passage on the class warfare agenda being foisted by President Obama and his extreme, take-no-prisoners fiscal policy:

The U.S. has never been a society riven by class resentment. Yet the Obama budget is predicated on a class divide. The president issued a read-my-lips pledge that no new burdens will fall on 95 percent of the American people. All the costs will be borne by the rich and all benefits redistributed downward.
Keep in mind that this is coming from Brooks, who was recently critical of Bobby Jindal and the GOP rebuttal to Obama's presidential address. Note too that Brooks is not loved by Rush Limbaugh and heartland conservatives, so it'd be hard to attack Brooks' identification of Democratic class warfare as pure "winguttery."

Nope, the fact is that Democratic class warfare is a self-evident truth that even moderate "intellectual" conservatives have no problem attacking. But stayed tuned for another iteration of denialism from the freak Dr. Hussein.
