Republicans demanded Thursday that billionaire investment guru Warren Buffett reveal

The good old days....


Republicans demanded Thursday that billionaire investment guru Warren Buffett reveal his tax returns if his views on tax rates are going to serve as the basis for the White House’s proposals.

“Will Warren Buffett release his tax returns so we can see why he should be the standard for tax policy?” Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) questioned in a tweet Thursday.


“I’d love to see Buffett’s tax returns so we can see what he’s really doing, because he’s kind of operating in the dark here, making some claims,” DeMint told Bloomberg Television.


“Buffett has bitten off more than he can chew; he’s afraid to show the proof,” said Huelskamp

"Will Warren Buffett release his tax returns" and
"I’d love to see Buffett’s tax returns"
equates to "Republicans demanded"?

Hyperbole Much?

Is this anything more than further evidence the the Left is becoming increasingly unhinged as the referendom on whether their Emperor is wearing the finest clothes in all the world or he is a naked fool, will be decided when the rapidly approaching election day takes place?

Me upon my pony on my boat

The mystery masked man was smart
He got himself a Tonto
'Cause Tonto did the dirty work for free
But Tonto he was smarter
And one day said kemo sabe
Kiss my ass I bought a boat
I'm going out to sea

And if I had a boat
I'd go out on the ocean
And if I had a pony
I'd ride him on my boat
And we could all together
Go out on the ocean
Me upon my pony on my boat

And if I were like lightning
I wouldn't need no sneakers
I'd come and go wherever I would please
And I'd scare 'em by the shade tree
And I'd scare 'em by the light pole
But I would not scare my pony on my boat out on the sea

Real story... but one year old.

Hypocrisy in action though. The republicans have absolutely no fear of demanding of others what they will not do themselves. Guess they know that the majority of voters in their camp have such limited brain power as to be unable to remember what transpired last week, last month or last year, so all their hypocritical statements do not resound with these people. Pointing it out only garners a cacophony of LIBERAL MEDIA BIAS!!! and they just move along....

I just take heart in the fact that old Skid Row is probably having the identity crisis of a lifetime...

True! The irony must be galling.
