Karl Rove wants you to sign petition for Warren Buffet to pay more taxes after Buffet bails out BofA
Wednesday, April 11th, 2012Amazing. Karl Rove’s tactics are becoming old and mundane. He is out of touch with the “regular” American people who remember political statements and history (thanks to the internet / Info Age). Rove is now circulating a petition asking Warren Buffet to pay more taxes forgetting the fact that Buffet is one of the biggest givers out there and has proven his American patriotism time and time again when investing his own money into American companies.
I guess Karl Rove didn’t get the memo when Warren Buffet invested $5 BILLION of his own money to invest in Bank of America (BofA) and thwarted more financial scares and downturns of our financial markets? Yes, that’s right. Buffet helped to restore confidence into an American Company, and if Rove hasn’t read about it, I suggest he read it in the WSJ.
Speaking of putting your money where your mouth is …. Rove’s CrossRoads spends millions of dollars in negative political advertisements. I have news for Rove … his antiquated divisive political thinking is getting old during a time in which Americans look to healing. Americans are tired of the fringe groups and Party partisan tactics.
Warren Buffet has given, but where is Rove at when it comes to the art of giving? Imagine that, Buffet bails out an American company risking $5 BILLION (not Million) — $5 BILLION of his own money but it ain’t good enough. Perhaps Rove should concentrate on REAL efforts on more productive measures starting with the doing away of oil subsidies. Millions given to oil companies through subsidies will help bring the American economy out of debt.
