Yeah, keep naming because so far, with the exception of Pelosi, everyone you've mentioned is irrelevant to the point.
Al Gore built something and sold it. That differs from Rmoney who ransacked companies more often than building. Did Gore stash money illegally in Switzerland like Rmoney did? And if you don't believe the guy was part of that IRS action, you're beyond naive.
Kerry has a boat in another state. His wife is extremely rich. If they have funnelled money out of the country and worked hard to avoid taxes, then rip away. If all you have is a boat in another state, that's not even close to relevant.
Who doesn't know Joe Kennedy had mafia connections? And who in the last 30 years has condoned that? Is your point that they have old money? Having old money means nothing - it's when you hide it or use it to buy Congressional seats (like the kochs), crush employees, companies, and the like when it means something.
I don't know of too many Democrats who know anything about Jack Lew and find the slightest thing appealing or positive. Actually, I know no one who has anything but negative feelings about Lew, but I'm sure there are a few blind Obama fans who believe everything Obama emits is flower bouquets and they will find some twisted reason to cheer Lew. At the end of the day, they're just as shallow in their assessments as you are with yours... that's great company.

Why Customers Are Disappearing, Why Higher Unemployment Is the Likely Result, and Why Many in Washington Don't Have Half a Brain
You're close, but not all the way home.
Creatures like the kochs don't really care very much about tax rates. Public whining about that is just propaganda that claims the rich are abused, precious resources.
They care about being able to decide who pays what, who deserves to make any money, and who deserves help. In short, they care only about power.
- When you have the power to control Congress, you have the power to control your taxes.
- When you have the power to control Congress, you control those who police you.
- When you have the power to air your side of any issue to the masses and the power to restrict dissemination of contradictory messages, you have the power to get away with murder.
- When you have the power to wage war against other nations in order to help gain control of raw materials like oil and minerals, you can do almost anything you want.
Power is what they want. And as many, many nations in the world can clearly demonstrate, the more you concentrate wealth and its ability to feed, heal/kill, and manipulate the masses, the more entrenched the rich become and the more devastatingly impoverished the citizens become.
I wish we had someone in the White House who could sound the alarm and fight the fight, but, alas, all we have is the negotiator - the man who created and unleashed the ever-rolling train wreck that is simpson-bowles... the drum major for austerity

Dennis Dixon is the Answer
The [future] signing of Dixon certainly implies that the Read Option is a gimmick. If you have to fish some kid off of a practice squad to get people in there to play in or help others learn your system, then there's something broken with the system. If only 6 QBs in the NFL can run the system, then what happens when any of them go down to injury?
I like what SF did this year. They ran an offense that suited Smith to a degree but then they figured they could do better running a modified version with Kappy - and off they went. They didn't build a team around a scheme - they built a scheme around a team. Since the salary cap era has set in, that's how you win.
The 'build a team around a system' approach seems doomed to me. You never know until it's over, but it's not the way teams win championships (look at the last 20 SB champs - no revolutionary offenses anywhere). And it's all because Jeffy Lurie can't tolerate winning like the Ravens just did - he's got to become a legend of some sort or else it's not good enough. It's starting to look like Lurie is the weak link in all this.
The only good thing is that we won't be staring at Reid's pumpkin head for another season. But that's enough for me right now.
