OK, Dean - I'LL take that challenge!
(The tea party people, undoubtedly almost all of whom do not belong to the richest one percent, appear unconcerned with this.)
I note the sarcasm "undoubtedly" - first, I'd love to see you back THAT statistic up - and since I am one on of the co-Founding Members of the NH TEA Party Coalition (although I speak for the 'Grok here and not for the Coalition as a whole), I can tell you that you're all wet behind the ears. I am far from being in that one percent, most of the rest of the group I can probably say ditto, and I know that the families that have been coming out to the NH TEA Party events are just ordinary Jane and Joe SixPack type of folk like us.
Dean trots out a graph with that challenge (go ahead, click on over - we'll link but they refuse to link back) - it seems that the BH gang has so been mislead by their ideological blinders that they can't even believe that there might be another explanation, an EASY one, for the graph.
So Dean, I'm willing to debate - ready to step into the ring? I've offered before - you've always backed off in silence. Is this issue important enough to you to take on a TEA Party person who is willing to mix it up in the arena of ideas?
At least Rep. Jim Splaine has had the courage to comment here on the 'Grok (which will be promoted a bit later on to the front page as another post) - will you accept this challenge?
After all, you issued it...
