Are there famous Catholic Democrats?
There are plenty of politicians within the Democratic National party who self identify as Catholics. Whether they allow allow Catholic doctrine to inform and shape their character and whether they live their beliefs through their voting record and policy support positions are questions that help us discern whether the “Catholic label” is donned to collect voter support from a demographic of nearly a quarter of the American population or something truly identifying.Likewise, there are plenty of celebrities who self identify as Catholics. The same question about what policies and positions each support also applies.
Who are the Democrats talking about when they use their famous catch phrase "Tax the Rich"?
Well, they say they mean the “1%-ers”—people like railroad owners, oil company owners, mining corporation owners, etcetera, but...The last several Democrat-enacted tax hikes actually hit people making $250,000 or more the hardest, since there are far more ‘250,000-aires’ than there are billionaires. If you’re a union plumber, with overtime and shift premiums, you alone can make over $150,000, and if your wife is a hospital insurance coordinator, her salary can easily push the two of you over the evil rich threshhold that is actually in the tax code. This bracket is medium-upper middle class. There were dozens of arbitrary tax hikes by the Obama administration passed by Reid and Pelosi, most of whose only purposes were to fund Obamacare. And these tax hikes primarily slammed employers and the Average Joe*. Of course, Obama lied his ass off about Obamacare, including not to raise taxes on anyone making less than $250,000: “I can make a firm pledge. Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes” (Barack Obama, September 12, 2008, Dover, NH). Obama increased everybody’s taxes. He didn’t care if you could afford them or not. There are millions of such taxpayers. And if you’re both average-paid Doctors, you’re upper middle class at about $500,000 combined. Comfortable, but hardly evil rich. But definitely the rich in “tax the rich”.*by now you should know I always cite credible sources to support my answers. It’s no different on this issue:Full List of Obama Tax Hikes
What is the Democratic Republic of the Congo famous for?
Congolese music is well known across africa. We party like they ain't tomorrow. Sad to say, even though the population is one of the poorest in the world. Still, we take our mind into parties and dressing up nicely. Congolese are known for partying and dressing well. The minerals belongs to the presidency pockets. They use it to their likes, to support their family i guess.
Why would Jefferson be a Democrat?
Four things to consider on this issue: 1. What it meant to be a "Democrat" between 1780 and 1860 and what it means today is completely different. In that sense, you are right on. 2. The same argument you are making can easily be turned around on Conservatives as well. For example, Thomas Jefferson strongly opposed executive privilege, something that Bush has used effectively to wage an otherwise illegal war. Hmm... 3. There is a little thing called context that both you AND Democrats seem to forget about when whipping out history for your propaganda. A good example? Gun "rights." The second amendment was clearly written in a certain context. Within that context we needed a militia to protect us from foreign invasion. Within that context automatic weapons and hand guns that are easily used to murder and steal did not exist. Considering that in the present we have a strong army and law enforcement to protect us, one does not need Jefferson to defend gun control, just a little common sense. 4. 99% of people who whip out the founding fathers, Republican and Democrat alike, have never even read their writings. Their letters, the Federalist debate, Congressional records, etc. were all published and are available to the public even today. I am willing to bet you're not in the 1% who has actually studied these writings. Otherwise you could answer your own rant, I mean question. I'm no Democrat. But the only thing I can think of that is worse than them are self-righteous Republicans.
Why are so many celebrities and famous people democrats?
Because when you have a really lot of money, you have the ability to park some if it off-shore (in tax havens like Bermuda, Switzerland and the Caymans) and to put the rest of it into tax advantaged investments. Once you reach that point you have no problem with taxes being raised and given as benefits to people who didn't earn it. But I suspect that there are a lot of closeted Republicans in Hollywood - one thing about Liberals, if you don't agree with them, they hate you and that would translate into no jobs if you are in Hollywood.
