AOL comment sections are extremely right wing. That changes when GOP blocks taxing rich

[Quixote1818]

The link on AOL to this article was presented like this: Senate Republicans Block Bill to End Tax Breaks for Rich



Sample comment that so far has been rated up by nine people and down by zero:

gillsm1:15 PM Dec 4, 2010
(9)(0) The people who earn over $500,000 a year increased their income by 17 percent in 2009. The rest of us stayed the same or went down in real dollars. A 4 percent increase would not put a big hurt on the wealthiest Americans, and it would help draw down the deficit.



I know this is not scientific but I have never in my life seen an AOL comment section look to be backing the Democrats over Republicans. Obama is holding the ACE of Spades if Republicans want to shut down the Gov. over Tax Cuts for the Wealthy. The Republicans would lose that battle big time! If Obama gives this away he is either the dumbest person on the planet or has been bought off.

1. But standing up to them wouldn't be bipartisan.

I'm anxious to see if he has a spine or will cave on this too.

2. You know why AOL is so right wing?

AOL is for incredibly stupid people who can barely tie their own shoes.
