New GOP Talking Point: "War on Prosperity"
I was flipping channels and came across Larry Kudlow on CNBC and that is his "topic" today. A quick search of this term has it all over GOP boards.

What a joke.

4. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh, it's that Libertarian economic vodoo again.
There seems to be alot of that posted around here.
Doesn't Kudlow belong to some religious cult related to the Catholic Church?

10. Yes he does, Tom Monaguhan's Ave Maria group
he is on the board of directors of their mutual fund. They only invest in companies who are anti-abortion, anti-porn, and anti-same gender benefits for workers, that is all. Talk about misrepresting Catholic Social Justice.

I am IP blocked to their investing page after bringing this up on Al Kestra's (Ave Maria Rushlike radio host) page last week. They do not want me critiquing the fund. It is all about the money with the Ave Maria group anyways.

6. The blogspot.com blogger is too cowardly to allow anonymous comments.
War on prosperity? Sure, why not? The working men and women of this country are scapegoats for everything else...

Upon further thought, maybe the OP has a point. The only trouble is, not everyone can own a business, nor can everyone be a CEO. Therefore not everyone can get all these tax cuts and other perks being bestowed.

8. When prosperity means vultures feeding on the middle class carcass
then hell yes war on prosperity.

If the rich need to get richer, then they should do it honestly not all this bait and switch stuff they keep pulling on the not rich club.
