Obama's Judicial Philosophy Comports With Redistribution of Wealth
A Blog For All — ... , which would guarantee all Americans a job, health care, homes, an education, and a fair playing field for business and farmers.

Moonbattery — At first Obama was only going to loot those making over $250,000 per year, so that the rest might enjoy the fruits of their labor in accordance with the principles of socialists, pirates, muggers, and other wicked thieves. Then it became $200,000, then $150,000. It has now reached $120,000.
